Not just schools, but parents need to step up and have talks
with their kids too. Especially, desi parents need to stop acting so coy and
equip their children to make the right choices. Kids these days get exposed to
sex and sex related issues at a very young age. Many will experiment well before
previous generations even dared to think about sex. So it is even more important
that parents talk to them and give them guidance about relationships,
respecting each other, distinguishing between fantasy and reality,
communicating, learning to say no and respecting the other persons no.Sex Ed is one thing, but the foundation of healthy perspectives on sex starts at home I think. And almost all sex related issues in the subcontinent are because we still treat sex as a taboo and no one gets any guidance.

this year's Super Rugby competition.
Sanzar, Super Rugby's organising body, announced the
extension today. It brings Super Rugby into line with
internationals, which already have a 12-minute halftime.
The longer break has commercial advantages for television.
Sanzar also today confirmed the venues and times for all
matches in 2013. In one change, the third-round match between
the Blues and Crusaders at Eden Park on March 1 will kick-off
at 7.30pm.

Before the formation of the Federal Reserve, banking panics were routine events in the United States. During the most severe episodes, banks in cities across the country would often suspend or restrict the par convertibility of their demand deposit liabilities. In diagnosing the causes of the Great Depression, Friedman and Schwartz famously regard these local initiatives as a second best solution, which in the absence of an effective lender of last resort would have prevented the rash of bank failures during the early 1930s and their dire monetary and real impacts. Recent research in macroeconomics though has raised the possibility that banks' suspension of payments might also have negative real effects albeit through changes in aggregate supply such as the financing of working capital. We would expect to observe these negative shocks during the pre-Fed era, because the decentralized, private interbank payments network was especially vulnerable to systemic disruptions such as suspensions by New York and other money center banks. Reports in national trade periodicals and local newspapers during suspension periods offer many accounts of factories closing because of the inability to obtain currency for weekly payrolls and "domestic exchange" to finance internal trade. We corroborate these observations with more systematic econometric evidence at the national and regional levels. Our results show that controlling for the overall contraction and bank failures, suspension periods were associated with a statistically significant and quantitatively large decline in real activity, on the order of 10–20 %.

LAKEWOOD — It was admittedly an emotional state track and field meet for Dakota Ridge senior Cayli Hume.
First there was the dilemma of whether Hume would run the anchor leg in the first event on the track May 19 at Jeffco Stadium. The Eagles' 800-meter medley relay broke the school record twice in the two weeks leading up to the three-day state meet and came in with the seventh best qualifying time.
By Craig Harper — For the Courier
THORNTON — The transition has come full circle for Jack Moranetz.
The D'Evelyn sophomore swimmer is a bona fide breaststroker. Oh, he'll still swim freestyle races and maybe even the individual medley, especially if he gets his butterfly up to par.
ENGLEWOOD — Sonorah Hunter's first child isn't due until August, yet she is already accustomed to molding today's youth.
Chatfield relays strong at state
Chatfield's boys swim team finished tied for 14th at the Class 5A boys swimming and diving state meet in Colorado Springs. Three of the Chargers' relay teams placed in the top 15.
LAKEWOOD — The left foot of Columbine senior Tatum Barton got the Rebels one step closer to the Class 5A girls soccer state championship game.
Barton's 28th goal this season was all the 5A Jeffco League champs needed offensively May 18 in the state quarterfinal showdown with No. 7 seed Rocky Mountain. The senior forward ripped a left-footed shot from atop the Lobos' goalie box in the 49th minute that hit the inside of the right post and into the back of the net.
By Brian Miller — For the Courier
HIGHLANDS RANCH — On a day where top-seeded teams tumbled by the wayside, Dakota Ridge's baseball team stayed true to what it does best.
In the two games of the Class 5A District 4 tournament at Rock Canyon High School on May 14, the Eagles relied on a mixture of clutch hitting, quality pitching and solid defense to punch their ticket to the eight-team, double-elimination 5A state tournament.
DENVER — There were some tears, but there was also smiles and laughter as Chatfield players, coaches and fans hugged senior Jenna Alvarez and sophomore Kendall Moore on the final day of the Class 5A girls state tennis tournament.
Alvarez and Moore came up short claiming the Chargers' first individual state title since 2010 with a 6-1, 7-5 loss to Cherry Creek's Allison Murphy and Emily Wilkens, but Alvarez didn't mind her new title of state runner-up.
By Matthew Van Deventer — For the Courier
DENVER — Columbine's girls lacrosse team is still in the fight.
After a 6-5 upset against Denver East in the second round of the state tournament, the Rebels, who were defeated by the Angels 20-9 earlier this season, will head to the quarterfinals for the first time since 2010, according to Columbine coach Sonorah Hunter.
Craig Harper — For the Courier
ARVADA — It's not like Gavin Olson burst onto the high school swimming scene without notice.
Columbine's boys swim coach Kristy Marosy had first-hand knowledge of his potential long before he turned up for his freshman season in 2016.
DENVER — To be the best you must beat the best.
Defending state champion and top-seed Colorado Academy is the team to beat in girls lacrosse, and Dakota Ridge got its shot at the Mustangs in the second round of the state tournament May 13.

REVELATION OF ST. JOHN THE DIVINE - Chapter 12 - Verse 6
Verse 6. And the woman. The woman representing the church. See Barnes on "Re 12:1".
Fled. That is, she fled in the manner, and at the time, stated in Re 12:14. John here evidently anticipates, by a summary statement, what he relates more in detail in Re 12:14-17. He had referred (Re 12:2-5) to what occurred to the child in its persecutions, and he here alludes, in general, to what befell the true church as compelled to flee into obscurity and safety. Having briefly referred to this, the writer (Re 12:7-13) gives an account of the efforts of Satan consequent on the removal of the child to heaven.
Into the wilderness. On the meaning of the word wilderness in the New Testament, see Barnes "Mt 3:1".
It means a desert place, a place where there are few or no inhabitants; a place, therefore, where one might be concealed and unknown—remote from the habitations and the observation of men. This would well represent the fact that the true church became for a time obscure and unknown—as if it had fled away from the habitations of men, and had retired to the solitude and loneliness of a desert. Yet even there (Re 12:14,16) it would be mysteriously nourished, though seemingly driven out into wastes and solitudes, and having its abode among the rocks and sands of a desert.
Where she hath a place prepared of God. A place where she might be safe, and might be kept alive. The meaning is, that during that time, the true church, though obscure and almost unknown, would be the object of the Divine protection and care—a beautiful representation of the church during the corruptions of the Papacy and the darkness of the middle ages.
That they should feed her. That they should nourish or sustain her—trefwsin—to wit, as specified in Re 12:14,16. Those who were to do this, represented by the word "they," are not particularly mentioned, and the simple idea is that she would be nourished during that time. That is, stripped of the figure, the church during that time would find true friends, and would be kept alive. It is hardly necessary to say that this has, in fact, occurred in the darkest periods of the history of the church.
A thousand two hundred and threescore days. That is, regarding these as prophetic days, in which a day denotes a year, twelve hundred and sixty years. The same period evidently is referred to in Re 12:14, in the words "for a time, and times, and half a time." And the same period is undoubtedly referred to in Da 7:25: "And they shall be given into his hand until a time, and times, and the dividing of time." For a full consideration of the meaning of this language, and its application to the Papacy, see Barnes "Da 7:25".
The full investigation there made of the meaning and application of the language renders its consideration here unnecessary. I regard it here, as I do there, as referring to the proper continuance of the Papal power, during which the true church would remain in comparative obscurity, as if driven into a desert. Compare Barnes on "Re 11:2".
The meaning here is, that during that period the true church would not become wholly extinct. It would have an existence upon the earth, but its final triumph would be reserved for the time when this great enemy should be finally overthrown. Compare Barnes on "Re 12:14-17".

It's great to have a whole-grain alternative that is so quick to prepare, and that doesn't come in a box. In just 5 minutes, you'll have a delicious side dish to accompany grilled fish, chicken, or steak. With the addition of curry, sweet raisins, and cranberries, this dish will warm you up on chilly fall nights with spice, while still offering a hint of sweetness. Not only is it quick to prepare, but this side dish would be a great addition to your table because of its whole grain benefits. Think about adding it to your holiday menu!

how long did it take to make?
how long did it take to make?
To make the macaroons it took about an hour or two, BUT after they were baked I had such a hard time stringing them on the cord that it took me all night!
Ooo, what material did you use?
I would like to make my own after seeing this creation!
I would like to make my own after seeing this creation!
They're made entirely out of polymer clay.
Ooo, thank you for telling me.
I shall try and get some now! : D
I shall try and get some now! : D
I buy the "Craft smart" brand of polymer clay from Michael's craft stores, it's cheaper than sculpey and it's non-toxic so it doesn't smell when you bake it or leave a residue on your hands. You can find it online on etsy or ebay but so far I haven't found any place that sells it cheaper than Michaels. If you want to learn more I have a polymer clay guide on my blog:
I want one! It's adorable!!
sweeeeeetttt <3
cute. The macaroons would be cute as a stand alone as well.
I.. Want to eat them.. But I know I can't. And it makes me sad. Q Q They are very pretty though!
Ohhhh i love them!!! Do you make shipping to Mexico?? (sorry my english is bad..)

I believe the best defense Bama displayed was while TR was on the staff...hope the rumor is true!
We needs a C Section then...child birth is overdue!
Patience grasshopper...whammer says...good things come to those who wait!
Hasn't said yes or no yet which most feel is good for Bama
Stevens to UT for 3 mill...not happening
It's my understanding he was given control of the program, major bucks and 4.2ish and a 6 year deal...I've heard its a done deal but you can't spend the money until the name is on the dotted line. ...
Marshall is from SC.
Remember...step one is to talk to the family and make a family decision.
Step two is to talk to the team.
Then the part we enjoy...da plane and PC.
Great basketball packs Coleman!
. I hear it's done...team meeting AM to inform he's headed to Bama
The big question...will the same lady that laid a big wet one Saban's arrival do the same for Marshall if he comes?
The best line in the story was go 0-14 to save the trees...they gave it a heck of try this year. 3 or 4 more seasons like last year and who knows...they may survive!
and then there are the Ducks...Nike/money/glitz
Not pulling against the Ducks...just pulling for a Coach and program that does it the right way!
Good luck K State!

"Sam Wilson" & US Agent Clash as Spencer's "Captain America" Saga Escalates
Comic Books
Hello and welcome to Shelf Porn, where we give fans the opportunity to show us their collections, both big and small. And today we have one that falls into the former category, as Bryan Hodgson a soon-to-be pharmacist who shares his collection of graphic novels, statues, original art and more.
If you'd like to see your collection here, drop me a note at email@example.com. Let's make it happen!
And now let's hear from Bryan …
My name is Bryan Hodgson, I am 33 and I have been collecting comics in one form or another for about 20 years. I am a part owner of one of the local comic stores, and I have recently returned to University to pursue a career as a Pharmacist. My wife (Lisa) shares my passion for the hobby and has become quite the enabler when it comes to additions to the collection. As such we have comic or comic-related paraphernalia in nearly every room of our house. I tried to take pictures of everything that we have set up, but I may have missed a few things here and there.
Additionally I do have a large collection of monthly comics (somewhere around 7,000+ issues), but I didn't include pictures of them because I don't find large white boxes incredibly interesting. If any of the readers are interested, I can certainly send them some pictures.
I did my best to number the pictures in such a way that it is like a tour around our house. I'll make a few comments along the way, but for the most part I'll let the pictures speak for themselves. If you have any comments or questions I will be happy to answer them. On to the collection.
Starting upstairs pictures 1 through 9 include what we have on display in our living room, dining room, kitchen and main floor bathroom. The art above the fireplace is by John Cassaday and is my favorite piece in my collection.
Pictures 10-14 follow you as you make your way downstairs to the bulk of the collection. Yes Mario is made out of lego and the alien from Space Invaders is made out of chainmail links.
This is a set of art prints that the SDCC put out in 2006 for the DC comic stamps. I missed grabbing the Marvel ones that were released later so if any of the viewers know where to grab a set I would love to know.
Pictures 16-29 are three of the display cases I have stuffed full of statues and busts. I did my best to arrange each shelf with a theme in mind. Care to take any guesses?
Pictures 30-38 are found within our non-superhero comic room. The Earthworm Jim riding Tommy was a fantastic commission from Doug TenNapel who is one of the humblest comic creators I have met (super-tall too!).
And the remainder (pictures 39-89) are within the main comic room. The anal-retentiveness I put into organizing my collection becomes readily apparent within this room. Books are arranged thusly: DC and Others Absolute, Marvel HC Oversized, DC HC Oversized, Marvel HC, DC HC, Marvel Trades, DC Trades, Independent HCs, Independent Trades and then art books, regular novels and board games. It's almost a sickness how particular I am with organizing and aligning the books.
As a final statement I would like to say that I have thoroughly enjoyed viewing the other collector's shelf porn on the website. It is always nice to see collections (large and small) from across the world. Thank you for hosting my collection and thank you for introducing me to so many wonderful collections from other fans.
"WOW!" multiplied by a factor of 100!
Excellent collection layout.
A sword nearby your bed? Expecting someone?
Well done! I don't know how you afforded it all while saving for school, but you've done an incredible job of both collecting and displaying. Great breadth of interests, nicely presented. Kudos. This was one of the best Shelf Porns ever.
Holy cow you must have spent a billion dollars on all that
Amazing. Simply Incredible. The way everything is set up, so meticulous. This person has inspired me with their layout. Truly a great collector.
Dude, thats a comic store in your HOUSE! SO JEALOUS! Have you read all that? Its such a diverse collection. Hope you don't live near a flood zone or hurricane prone area.
Funny you should mention flood… That did happen to us two summers ago! Sump backed up, AND the comic room window leaked in the same storm. Only a very few were damaged as Bryan caught it quickly, but it took a few friends and many hours moving everything out. >.< I suppose it allowed Bryan to rearrange the collection even better the second time… But I'm sure it wasn't appreciated at the time.
Like Nicholas said, "Wow!".
Easily one of the best shelf porn features yet. Huge amount but not cluttered in any way. Everything set out neatly and easily accessed. Fantastic job.
I always like best the collections that are a healhy mix of readables and other items like original art and statues. And this was a perfect example of that.
Wonderful, simply wonderful. I love your layout and display. I respect a collection with that much effort put into the presentation. Nice clean photos for us to enjoy as well. Thank you.
What is the print above the tv of?
One the best, if not THE best collections and presentations, I've seen here. You should both be very proud.
Nice collection. Where did you get your display case for your statues and your bookshelves from?
Totally jealous of the Superboy and Krypto art pieces!!
Wow, beautiful presentation! I think this is my favorite Shelf Porn yet. I'm so so so so so jealous of that Superboy/Krypto piece by Manapul. Would you mind telling me where you found those book shelves? I'm in desperate need of new ones, and those look perfect for what I want to do.
Wow that must have cost a lot. Nicely organized. Definitely the best shelf porn yet.
Those bookshelves are the Expedit model from Ikea. I have Ikea's Billy bookshelves with height extensions for my collection.
Hey Everyone,
Thank you for all the great comments.
-Nicholas: I've got a mount for the sword, it just hasn't gone up yet. And that's our guest room…the master bedroom is one of the few rooms that doesn't have any memorbilia.
-Z: No not a billion. Not yet at least.
BG: I must confess that there are a few books on the shelves that I haven't made my way to yet, but not too many.
-Todd: The print above the TV is a scene of Drizzt Do'Urden fighting off orcs, trolls and a giant. If you look closely you can see Guenhwyvar in the upper right of the picture. The artwork was done by Todd Lockwood.
-Jeff: Both the display cases and the bookshelves are from Ikea. As Rich mentioned the bookshelves are the Expedit model. The large display case is Norden shelf system. The smaller cases were a product that Ikea used to carry, but I have not seen them there for quite some time. A nice feature of the Expedit's is that they come with hardware to secure them to the wall (which I did for all of mine). Gives me a bit of peace of mind to know they won't fall over.
-Maniacmatt: Rich is correct, those are the Expedit shelves.
Dude you're missing a Storm statue from your x-men collection. Get on that.
Wow. I love your "library" section the best. What kind of shelves are those, and where can you get them?
First, give me that Sweet Tooth art!
Second, I was at an awesome comic store today, and this collection rivals their stock. :O
Love it.
Absolutley MASSIVE collection. Love the way you've got everything organized.
I want to go to there.
Fantastic, really appreciate you sharing this with us. As much as i understand the digital revolution (and am not anti it), this reminds me of is severe shortcomings in terms of allowing us, to what ever degree you like, create our physical living environement with the things we enjoy and that say something about who we are.
All I can say is 'Fark me!!!!!' This has truly been the money shot of the shelf porn series. Kudos! Honestly, my keyboard is covered in duff!
Now that is some shelf porn.
Errrmmm…Who is going to want to follow that display???????
not sure i can add anything new, but wonderful impressive collection
I was going to send my "room" in until I saw this room.
This is an amazing collection. Great organization and just a ton of amazing books and statues and art.
Fantastic collection! Absolutely love the SWEET TOOTH art! Wow!
How long does it take to dust all of that?
@ jeremy. that is the only bad thing about the setup–the dusting! great collection though, i have some of the same statues. thanks for sharing your awesome collection!
great collection man!
The jealousy I have for this collection will send me to hell!

Reflections on the Gulf Oil Spill and a Prayer for Lost Lives
Woe to You, Legislators!
What Would Jesus Tax?
In the face of state and federal budget cuts, many of us have been fasting and contemplating the question: "What would Jesus cut?" In light of tax day, however, we might equally contemplate: "What would Jesus tax?"
After all, a great deal of our budgetary stress is the result of declining revenue, thanks to the economic downturn and decades of tax cuts.
A new report that I co-authored, "Unnecessary Austerity," argues that before we make draconian budget cuts at the federal and state level, we should reverse huge tax cuts for the wealthy and tax dodging corporations.
The Jesus I know would be concerned about the extreme inequalities of wealth and power that have emerged in our communities. He would rail against principalities and powers that rig the tax rules so the privileged pay less.
He would lament the destruction of God's creation through excessive consumption and pollution. And, he would be alarmed about financial and commodity speculation driving up the cost of food and worsening hunger. (In today's world of high finance, someone would be hedging investments on how quickly Jesus could multiply loaves and fishes.)

Raffaele De Vita opened the scoring after just 14 minutes, turning home Kyel Reid's cross from 12 yards.
However, Wolves showed their title credentials by staging an impressive comeback.
James Henry restored parity for the visitors, superbly beating Jon McLaughin from long range. Henry then turned provider, crossing for Richard Stearman who sent a crashing header into the back of the net to secure all three points.
Macauley Bonne headed a fairytale winner for Colchester on his 18th birthday to secure his side a shock 1-0 win over 10-man Peterborough for whom Lee Tomlin was sent off.
Teenage substitute Bonne headed in with 21 minutes to go on his home debut, to seal Colchester their first win in 12 league games..
Kevin Lisbie struck the only goal of a scrappy affair at Brisbane Road to give Leyton Orient a 1-0 win against Rotherham that maintains their position at the top of the table.
Leading striker Lisbie took is tally to 12 for the season when he pounced in the 27th minute to give the home side a deserved lead.
Harry Maguire's first-half brace helped give new Sheffield United manager Nigel Clough a dream start as the Blades beat fellow strugglers Crewe 3-1 at Bramall Lane.
The 20-year-old defender twice headed home unmarked in the opening half an hour before Ryan Flynn sealed the three points before Alex substitute Max Clayton grabbed a late consolation goal.
A second-half hat-trick by Jay Emmanuel-Thomas helped earn Bristol City their first win of the season, ending Carlisle's improved run with a 4-2 success at Brunton Park.
Carlisle led at half-time through a Sean O'Hanlon header, but Thomas scored twice inside a minute after the break and Scott Wagstaff added a third. Although Liam Noble pulled one back for the home side, Thomas was again on target for City to make sure of the victory in the closing minutes.
Franck Moussa's second-half strike gave Coventry a narrow 1-0 win over midlands neighbours Walsall at the Banks's Stadium.
The game's lone goal came in the 54th minute when Saddlers goalkeeper Richard O'Donnell saved a header from Leon Clarke following Carl Baker's corner, only for Moussa to pounce and flick home the rebound for his seventh goal of the season.
Brentford strengthened their place near the top with a 1-0 victory over Shrewsbury thanks to an early strike from Marcello Trotta, as did Preston who struck late through Iain Hume to snatch a 1-0 win at Notts County.
James Rowe netted a late winner and Ryan Lowe a vital double as Tranmere came from behind to record their first home league win of the season with a 3-2 victory over MK Dons.
Stevenage recorded consecutive league wins for the first time this season as goals from Peter Hartley and Michael Doughty secured a hard-fought 2-0 win over Crawley.
Danny Philliskirk headed the winning goal as Oldham snatched a deserved 2-1 victory over Swindon and substitute Tom Pope headed his sixth goal of the campaign to give Port Vale a deserved 2-1 victory over Gillingham.

Rubens was one of main baroque painters who practices realism, which means that he painted whatever his eyes capture. That fact has helped us with the visual aspect and the circumstances where such paintings were painted. This has allowed us to discover alterations in the breast of the models he painted, which suggest breast cancer. Such painting are 'The three Graces', 'Diana and her nymphs pursued by satires', 'Orpheus and Euridice'. In 'The three Graces' we can see that the model on the right has an open ulcer with reddening of the skin, nipple retraction, reduction of breast volume as well as axilar lymph nodes. This is a visual aspect of a locally advanced breast cancer. In Diana and her nymphs pursued by satires and in Orpheus and Euridice we can see a breast retraction in the same place as in 'The three Graces', which suggest breast cancer indirectly. The analysis of the tumor mass in the models of these pictures allow us to know more on the works, the social environment and the diseases happened in the years this painter lived.

Editor's Note: Here's a selection of letters to Page 2's Bill Simmons about Kobe Bryant's performance in Game 7 of the first-round series loss to the Suns.
Looks like the voters got it right ... at least the part about not giving the award to Kobe. There is no way that the league MVP would score just one point in the second half of a Game 7 in a playoff series. There's just no way that would happen. I hope this puts to rest all the Kobe/Jordan comparisons that are still floating around out there. Kobe is not on his level. He never will be. Quite frankly, it's not even close.
-- Geoff, Agawam, Mass.
Game 7 of the Laker-Suns series was like in grade school when you challenge a big kid to race only after it starts he just jogs halfway and lets you win. You're right, the MJ comparisons stop now.
-- Rick M., New York
Let me first make you understand that I am a LIFELONG Lakers fan -- I was born, I grew up, and now live less than one mile from the Fabulous Forum -- and I have listened to the whole "Kobe has no supporting cast"/"Kobe is transforming"/"Kobe is becoming MJ" thing. And now I will remind you of the exact evidence as to why Kobe is not the next MJ. Is he more talented than MJ at his age? YES. Is he the next basketball savior? NO.
Because at the end of the day let's remember: 1) The reason Kobe has no supporting cast is because he wanted it that way AND 2) Kobe only cares about Kobe, from the day he left Eddie Jones wide open for 3 in the corner while he took a 40-foot airball against Utah in his first playoff series (and eventually got him traded away too), to the time in Sacto when the "hacks" were saying he was taking too many shots (so he purposely didn't shoot the whole game), to tonight when he decided that he would get ultimate revenge against Phil's whole "team concept" and the "hacks" saying he shot too much in Game 6 by "just running the offense" in a deciding Game 7.
At the end of the day Kobe has never felt the "hunger" for basketball like MJ (or Magic or Bird) did, because through it all he was already coddled and never paid his dues. At the end of the day Kobe believes his own hype, and Kobe goes out of his way to TRY to show that basketball "needs" him more than he "needs" it -- and it is that basic difference that will separate the two -- because we are at 10 years and counting and he hasn't changed yet.
-- Dorian, Inglewood, Calif.
Did the other Laker starters play above themselves for four games or was Kobe gracious in sharing the ball, thus allowing the team to reap the rewards? I think it's the former.
I don't want to play the role of "I-told-you-so" revisionist historian (but I will anyway), but when everyone was praising Kobe for sharing the ball, I was telling everyone that if the other Lakers had played like this all year long, he'd have given them they keys to the car long before now. It's like when Robert Downey Jr. checks out of rehab and seems to have his act together, but you're never quite sure if he's really clean and you aren't the least bit suprised when he relapses. It's almost like we got a glimpse into an alternate universe where Kobe had decent teammates.
And I can't wait to hear the criticisms about Kobe taking too few shots (presumably these people would prefer Kobe to score 40, so that the Lakers would only have lost by 20, paving the way for Kobe getting blamed for not getting everyone involved). And I really can't wait for people to wisely begin observing that "at least Shaq is still playing" as if Chicago and Phoenix are anywhere remotely on the same level.
-- DeAngelo L., Santa Monica, Calif.
An MVP does NOT throw in the towel during the second half of a Game 7. I don't know if Kobe was trying to make some kind of statement or what, but that's not what an MVP does. Period.
-- Alex, Provo, Utah
After Kobe's Game 7 performance, not only should MJ comparisons be forbidden, he should have to give up his self-proclaimed status as Black Mamba. Maybe he could call himself the Mottled Garter Snake or something like that. No way MJ disappears like that in a Game 7. Ever.
-- Chuck J., Centreville, Va.
Someone please explain what happened to Kobe in the second half. I consider myself a Laker fan of the highest order. Diehard. I cheered like crazy for Magic Johnson, James Worthy, Shaq, Kobe, Fish, and even Cedric Ceballos and Chucky Atkins. I've been with them all the way. And yet I don't get the second half. Defending Kobe's integrity for the last 10 years suddenly feels futile and pointless.
-- Gov D., Metro Manila, Philippines
Kobe would be great on "The Apprentice." When it became clear that the Lakers had lost Game 7, Kobe went into his "boardroom defense" strategy. At the time, he was shooting over 50 percent and had 23 first-half points. Why should he bother to shoot in the second half? How could he be fired by passing the ball and getting his teammates involved? How easy it is to blame it on the Project Manager's (Phil's) game plan? Congrats on your boardroom victory, Kobe.
-- Rick S., San Diego
So apparently Kobe was trying to get teammates into a rhythm during the second half. Funny, I must have missed his drives and dishes, and his post-ups that drew double-teams and created open shots. I did, however, see Kobe harmlessly swing the ball around the 3-point line quite a bit. Has any other "superstar" been so passive with the season on the line? You can debate whether Kobe should be MVP but there's no debate whether he makes his teammates better. Either he doesn't know how or Saturday he didn't want to try. And if he didn't want to try and he didn't want to shoot, then he quit.
-- Jonathan, Venice, Calif.
How much is Kobe trying to stick it to Phil Jackson and the media right now? Criticized for "shooting" too much in all of the Lakers' losses, he's willing to let the Lakers lose this series to prove a point that this is his team (and his success that got him to this point, not Phil's great coaching). The Mamba is tricky like that -- just when you think you have him figured out . . .
-- Jonathan, Morgantown, W. Va.
Watching Kobe in the second half -- wow. What blew me away was that, time after time, he would catch the ball, get doubled, give it up, and then DO NOTHING, literally just stand there. Your team is down 20-plus late in the third quarter in Game 7, no one on the floor except you should be allowed in the same ZIP code as a basketball player, and you're not going to try to take over the game? You're not going to start, I don't know, making some cuts or something after you're forced to give the ball up, in an attempt to get it back?
I doubt they would have won either way, but Kobe's performance in the second half was absolutely baffling. Which is why I'm convinced he's blown tens of millions on ice for his wife, is secretly in debt to the Stucci brothers, and was therefore forced to throw the game. It makes more sense than anything else I can come up with.
There's some solace in this, however: I'd been forced to acknowledge Kobe's brilliance recently, simply because I'd been watching him so much. This was an uncomfortable situation for me to be in, because a) I'm a Boston fan and b) Kobe's a jerk. Now I have reason to dislike him again. So even though I was robbed of an entertaining Game 7, it wasn't a total wash.
-- Jesse S., Boston
No more MJ comparisons. It's over. Three shots in the second half? He mailed it in with half a game to play! Kobe as MVP? What a joke [because] (a) MVP's shouldn't lose Game 7s; (b) if they're going to, I want them to lose by shooting 45 shots, making 10, and breaking their face because they dove for too many loose balls. What a disgrace. I don't even like basketball, and guys like Kobe are why. There's too little heart in the NBA and way too much posturing.
-- Mike, NYC
How about Kobe tanking the entire second half of Game 7? The great thing about egomaniacal prima donnas is that you can always count on them to showcase their true colors sooner or later with some grand spectacle of unprofessional petulance (see Carter, Vince). Snaps to Mamba on setting back the resuscitation of his image another 4-6 months. Oh and sweet mid-career number change. Awful.
-- Matt, Washington, D.C.
How come no one is talking about Kobe completely stabbing his teammates in the back in the second half of Game 7? There's a difference between (a) not taking 40 shots and (b) completely taking yourself out of the offense by standing at half court the entire half. Kobe was clearly trying to distance himself from the loss and let the blame fall squarely on his teammates. And then in the postgame interview Kobe made it sound like the Lakers never had chance -- like they were the Generals and the Suns were the Globetrotters. Are you really telling me that Kobe would have sounded like that if Thomas's 3 had been a half-inch off at the end of Game 6? The man is incapable of admitting that he got beat. It's like when you're playing against a cocky [player] in a pickup game, who realizes he's going to lose, and stops trying at all just to let everyone know that they didn't beat him when he was trying. That crap works at the Y, but it doesn't work in Game 7 of an NBA series.
-- Scott, Washington, D.C.
Second half of Game 7 points out all that needs to be said about your MVP pick (not that Nash had a great game). But Kobe giving up after an amazing first half to keep them even in the picture was unbelievable. I never liked him, but I respected his talent, his skills, and his competitiveness -- now I have no respect at all. He gave up, didn't want to be blamed for the loss and, to top it off, pulled an Isiah and walked off the court without shaking hands. He is simply a classless individual who will never win another title. The media must now observe a permanent moratorium on all comparisons to MJ (which were insane from the beginning).
-- Chris, Richmond, Va.
I'm sure you're getting tons of these emails, but no matter what Kobe does the rest of his career, the Kobe/Jordan comparison is officially over. Jordan would NEVER let any of his teams lose by 30 in a Game 7. You could put Jordan with me and three other of my slow, overweight friends and we still wouldn't lose by 30.
-- Avi, Brooklyn, N.Y.
Maybe you should come up with a "Failed Vengeance Scale" to cover events such as Kobe seeming like he'd get revenge, then going splat. His teammates didn't help, but do you really think Michael Jordan would have launched only three shots in the seconnd half?
-- Fritz, New Orleans, La.
Kobe's second-half performance in Game 7 against the Suns had to rank among the weirdest I've ever seen. Was the Phoenix defense that good? Doubtful. Was he mailing it in? Was he trying to prove a point (the weakness of his supporting cast, his importance to the team)? Zero field goals in the second half!? One measly technical free throw!? He didn't attack the basket once! Yes, Phoenix had a 15-point lead at the half. Daunting? Yes. Insurmountable? No way. Simply inexplicable. No more MJ comparisons, please. No way MJ mails in a Game 7. EVER. And no more MVP whining, either. I have no desire to get acquainted with Kobe's demons, but there's something strange going on in there. I watched in disbelief (and with glee).
-- Adam Caress, Manchester, Mass.
And don't know what is more satisfying: Being a Suns fan and having to endure a week where every sportswriter in the country wrote about the impending Lakers/Clips duel . . . but then, hold on, wait . . . I got your Hallway Series right . . . HERE! Or watching Mamba flat-out quit during the second half in a Game 7 of a playoff series. (Do MVP's actually do this?!) What a beautiful week!
-- Nick, Chippewa Falls, Wis.
Watching Bryant quit in the second half of Game 7 was like watching as if Ray Lewis were to raise up his hands and say "[forget] it" in the middle of a wild-card game. MVPs do not put on their pouty face when things don't go their way. It doesn't work for me in real life and it most certainly doesn't work in Game 7 of the playoffs. I can't help but feel sorry for Lakers fans, something I never thought I would EVER say, given that I cheer for the Celtics. Kobe now ranks alongside Barry Bonds and Marcus Vick on the list of "Holy Crap I Can't Believe He's Actually Doing That" performances of this century.
-- Brian H., Brighton, Mass.
Poor David Blaine. He spends a week in a water-filled bubble only to have Kobe come along and pull the greatest disappearing act of all time. What a shame.
-- Neil L., Burns Lake, British Columbia

If a wing is pitched through a range of angle of attack, L/ D first increases, then goes through a maximum, and then decreases. Consider an infinite wing with an NACA 2412 airfoil. Estimate the maximum value of L/D. Assume the Reynolds number is 9 × 106.

I was born and spent my first 17 years in Vienna, Austria. My mother tongue was, of course, German, and my foreign languages consisted of two years of French and six years of Latin. No English!
When I joined the American branch of my family in Philadelphia, Pa., at the age of 17, it didn't take me too long to realize that I could not expect to ask any local gal for a date in German. So I had a powerful incentive to crash-learn the "new" language of English as fast as I could.
Last week's shooting by police, and of police, brought to the fore once again the nation's seemingly never-ending trauma arising from the troubled relationship betwixt the negro and Caucasian races that has existed since the first days of the colonies in the early 1600s.
Those wishing to participate in Harriman's Fruit Cobbler Festival need to register by today, Monday, July 11, to compete.
Those wishing to compete can visit www.cityofharriman.net or the city's Facebook page for details.
Cornstalk Heights Historical Community Association is providing homemade ice cream to go with the cobblers.
Rebecca Schwepfinger, the city's special events coordinator and public relations officer, said the festival, from 5 to 8 p.m. July 23, concludes with a screening of children's movie Big Hero 6 at dark.
Thunderstorms blowing through the area Thursday evening left broken trees, power outages and blew items ranging from a portable toilet to a trampoline far from their homes.
Robert and Jo Riggsby returned to their home on Emory River Road near Kingston to find an addition to their lawn: a trampoline that had made its way from a neighboring yard.
"To pull up to your yard and see that is a shock," Jo Riggsby said Friday. "You can't even see their house from our house. It was in their yard; now it's in ours."
A defense motion for a change of venue was discussed during a hearing on July 6 in a Roane County child starvation case from 2012.
Circuit Court Judge Mike Pemberton is expected to give his decision on the motion this week.
Matthew and Amanda Dotson face first-degree murder and aggravated child abuse charges in the death of their 2-year-old son Clifford.
Roane County Sheriff's Office Investigator Art Wolff said preliminary autopsy results showed that Clifford died of severe malnutrition.
Harriman's Wendy's Restaurant was one of a number of the fast food chains impacted by malware that allowed hackers to steal debit and credit card data from customers.
According to Wendy's website, customers who purchased items with payment cards at the Harriman restaurant between Jan. 13 and June 8 may have had their information compromised.
A Thursday evening storm that blew through Kingston damaged the solar farm behind the city's water plant.
Several panels were strewn around the farm, and the frames holding up others were bent.
"That took a lot of wind to pick that up and twist it like that," City Manager David Bolling said Friday.
Bolling, Kingston Mayor Tim Neal and City Councilman Don White were at the plant Friday morning assessing the damage.
Municipal elections in Oliver Springs, Kingston and Rockwood will all coincide with the presidential election this year.
It is the first time for the municipalities to hold elections on the same day as the presidential one, and was chosen as a cost-saving measure. Harriman's city elections coincide with the August county elections.
The first day to pick up petitions for the Nov. 8 ballot was May 20, and candidates have until noon Aug. 18 to return them, said officials with the Roane County Election Commission.
The Tennessee Supreme Court plans to hear Tom McFarland's appeal of his election complaint on Sept. 8 at the appellate court building in Knoxville.
McFarland lost to Mike Pemberton in the 2014 race for circuit court judge of the 9th Judicial District.
Afterward, McFarland filed a complaint in Roane County Chancery Court against Pemberton, the Roane County Election Commission and Tennessee Coordinator of Elections Mark Goins.
McFarland appealed to the Supreme Court after two lower courts tossed out his complaint.
A woman was convicted of felony theft in Roane County Criminal Court on Thursday.
Assistant District Attorney General Bob Edwards said the jury took less than an hour to find Cortney Armour guilty.
She's scheduled to be sentenced later this year.
"We got a conviction for what we charged, so that's always good," Edwards said.
The incident happened on Easter Sunday 2014 at Emory Heights Baptist Church in Harriman.
Edwards said the victim, Shirley Bullard, had her purse stolen by Armour.

When is one called versus the other? Is there a situation were onChange would be called but onBlur would not be called?
We started with Q&A. Technical documentation is next, and we need your help.
Whether you're a beginner or an experienced developer, you can contribute.
You might want to take a look at quirksmode's intro to events. This is a great place to get info on what's going on in your browser when you interact with it. His book is good too.
onblur fires when a field loses focus, while onchange fires when that field's value changes. These events will not always occur in the same order, however.
In Firefox, tabbing out of a changed field will fire onchange then onblur, and it will normally do the same in IE. However, if you press the enter key instead of tab, in Firefox it will fire onblur then onchange, while IE will usually fire in the original order. However, I've seen cases where IE will also fire blur first, so be careful. You can't assume that either the onblur or the onchange will happen before the other one.
An example to make things concrete. If you have a selection thus:
In Firefox the onchange fires only when you tab or else click outside the input field. The same is true of Onblur. The difference is that onblur will fire whether you changed anything in the field or not. It is possible that ENTER will fire one or both of these, but you wouldn't know that if you disable the ENTER in your forms to prevent unexpected submits.
onBlur is when your focus is no longer on the field in question.
onChange is when the value of the field changes.
onChange is when something within a field changes eg, you write something in a text input.
onBlur is when you take focus away from a field eg, you were writing in a text input and you have clicked off it.
So really they are almost the same thing but for onChange to behave the way onBlur does something in that input needs to change.
I think it's important to note here that onBlur() fires regardless.
This is a helpful thread but the only thing it doesn't clarify is that onBlur() will fire every single time.
onChange() will only fire when the value is changed.
