OAKLAND -- Stephen Curry gets the save, and he was nothing less than phenomenal coming to the rescue Thursday night.
But the win for this series-clinching playoff victory goes to Andrew Bogut.
The Warriors navigated a 92-88 victory at Oracle Arena to eliminate Denver from the Western Conference playoffs because Bogut picked them up each time they fell during a stumbling, wobbling and altogether scattered first half.
Because Bogut in Game 6 was everything the Warriors wanted him to be when they needed him most. He's the reason confetti fell at the end.
Curry was spectacular for a quarter, the very important and decisive third quarter, but the Warriors will advance to meet San Antonio in the second round because Bogut spent most of the evening commanding the area near the baskets. Yes, both baskets.
The 7-foot center ambled off the floor with season highs in minutes (39), points (14, on 7-of-10 shooting) and rebounds (21). He blocked four shots and undoubtedly altered others. Just because he could, Bogut added three assists and a clutch fourth-quarter steal.
"I didn't expect that," coach Mark Jackson said.
"Incredible performance by the big fella," guard Jarrett Jack marveled.
If you looked closely at the arena floor when this was over, you might see some of Bogut's blood and skin, along with plenty of his sweat.
"It was a struggle,'' conceded Bogut, who compiled impressive numbers while hobbling up and down the court. "But it was very satisfying to have a good game and close a team we weren't supposed to beat."
The Nuggets won Game 5 Tuesday in Denver by going with a big lineup and using every inch of that size to their advantage, particularly around the basket.
But when they tried the same tactic Thursday night, going big, there was Bogut being bigger than he was in Game 5, and better than he has been at any time this season.
This is what the Warriors were hoping for 14 months ago when they traded popular guard Monta Ellis to Milwaukee for a big man they knew was wounded and coming off major surgery on his left ankle.
They needed what Bogut offers, needed it bad. The Warriors, desperate for a big man, tried whispering into the ear of then-Orlando center Dwight Howard, waving the promise of dollars and opportunity under his nose, only to watch Howard work his way from the Magic to Los Angeles.
The Warriors also had rolled up their sleeves to create a vacancy for another big man, Clippers center DeAndre Jordan, then threw money at the 7-footer and got nothing.
Desperate to be relevant and running out of options, the Warriors settled upon their third choice. Bogut. And they couldn't be happier, certainly not after this.
With Howard already out of the playoffs and Jordan barely a factor in the Clippers' first-round series against Memphis, Bogut was there for the Warriors, grabbing the Nuggets by the throat.
"He controlled the game for us," rookie forward Draymond Green said.
Yet even Bogut needed help. That's where Curry came in. So lethargic in the early going, as Denver kept a lead, the point guard came out for the second half like a thunderclap.
Two free throws for a 44-44 tie, with 10:13 left in the quarter, a 3-pointer for the lead, and another trey for punctuation, forcing Denver coach George Karl to call timeout, suddenly down 50-42 less than three minutes into the quarter.
This was vintage Curry, scoring 8 points in 66 seconds, energizing his teammates and the crowd, changing the complexion of the game, delivering it to the Warriors.
Somebody had to come to the aid of Bogut, and Curry filled that role.
And the Warriors almost gave it back. They stretched the lead to 18, faded badly down the stretch as it dropped to two, and had to hold on to give Jackson his first career playoff win as a coach.
"It got emotional and I'm still emotional, because just how incredible of a blessing this is," he coach said. "And I think that God has a sense of humor, because he wanted to show folks at the end, as we threw the ball all over the place, and it's only a miracle that we advanced."
The Warriors could have used a healthy David Lee. They turned instead to their other talented big man. He responded. Hobbling and grimacing much of the way, he endured.

"Beverly Hill Cop" has its new star.
Stand-up comedian Brandon T. Jackson will play Axel Foley's son in television pilot being developed for CBS by Shawn Ryan ("The Shield") and the original Beverly Hills Cop himself, Eddie Murphy.
As Aaron Foley, Jackson -- whom Deadline says was suggested by Murphy for the role -- will play a transplanted Detroit police officer now fighting crime in Beverly Hills, all the while trying to escape the shadow of his infamous father.
Well, becoming a cop and moving from Detroit to Beverly Hills should do the trick.
Murphy will guest-star in the pilot and possibly make an occasional appearance on the show if CBS orders the pilot.
Jackson's acting credits includes "Tropic Thunder," (where he played Alpa Chino) and "Big Mommas: Like Father, Like Son."
CHANNING TATUM IS MIGHTY SEXY: Channing Tatum is People magazine's 2012 Sexiest Man Alive
I can't believe I lost again.
"My first thought was, 'Y'all are messing with me,'" said Tatum, who married actress Jenna Dewan-Tatum in 2009. "I told Jenna after we'd been in the bathtub washing our dogs because they'd gotten skunked."
Says the actor: "She was like, 'What?'"
"Yeah, she calls me (the Sexiest Man Alive) now," he said.
Her Alabama-bred husband is also a sculptor who quotes Edgar Allan Poe, loves to give her massages and can't wait to start their family.
He probably also loves puppies and long walks on the beach.
"I'm ready; I think she's ready (for kids)," Tatum, 32, says. "The first number that pops into my head is three, but I just want one to be healthy and then we'll see where we go after that."
"It's really easy for us guys to say, 'I want like 15 kids,'" he said. "Jenna will be like, 'Well you better get another wife!'"
Currently training to play an Olympic athlete in next year's "Foxcatcher," Tatum is all heart and muscle at 195 pounds. "I like to be lean. If I get too bulky I can't move well and I like to move," he says. "When I'm not training, I get really round and soft."
That must be awful ... being Channing Tatum and being "soft."
Which is just fine by his wife. "People know him to be fun and sexy, but they don't know how emotionally deep and spiritually open he is," says Dewan-Tatum, 31. "He is such an openhearted person; what you see is what you get."
The rest of the list will be in the new issue of the magazine, which comes out Friday.
HOPE SOLO GETS MARRIED TO MAN WHO ALLEGEDLY ASSAULTED HER: Hope Solo and Jerramy Stevens got married Tuesday, a day after Stevens was arrested in Kirkland, Wash. on suspicion of committing fourth-degree assault on Solo, injuring her elbow during a party that turned into a brawl.
The ex-Seattle Seahawk and soccer star dated for all of two months before taking the plunge. They supposedly argued over where they would live.
Apparently they've decided.
"Events of yesterday morning didn't change plans," Mahler tweeted, referring to Stevens' arrest. Stevens spent the night in jail and was released later Tuesday after a judge decided there wasn't enough evidence to charge him.)
The King County records office confirmed to E! News that the pair applied for a marriage license last Thursday.
Although Hope herself has yet to tweet about her purported wedding, her Team USA soccer teammate, Jillian Loyden, appeared to hint at the nuptials. "Happy to witness such an amazing celebration of real love #selflesslove #fewandfarbetween," she tweeted early Wednesday morning.
If that's real love, I'd hate to see what happens if they decide they no longer like each other.
JON BON JOVI'S DAUGHTER HOSPITALIZED AFTER ALLEGED OVERDOSE: Jon Bon Jovi's daughter was arrested for suspicion of drug possession after she may have overdosed on heroin.
Stephanie Rose Bongiovi, a 19-year-old student a Hamilton College in Kirkland, N.Y., was expected to be released from the hospital Wednesday, according to People.com, citing a police report.
Officers and a volunteer ambulance squad were called to Stephanie's dorm about 1:51 a.m. Wednesday to assist a woman who had possibly overdosed on heroin and was not responsive, police said.
After finding a small amount of heroin, police arrested student Ian S. Grant, 21, who, like Bongiovi, is from Red Bank, N.J. A later search of the dorm also turned up additional heroin, marijuana and drug paraphernalia, police said.
Bongiovi was then arrested and charged with possession of a controlled substance and possession of marijuana. Both charges are misdemeanors.
"In addition to violating state law, the actions alleged to have been committed by the students violate Hamilton College policy," the college said in a statement to WKTV. "The college is cooperating with the police investigation. Our first concern is always for the safety of our students. Out of respect for the privacy of our students and in accordance with federal regulations we do not discuss individual health or disciplinary matters."
MICHAEL JACKSON'S ASSISTANT SUES: Michael Jackson's former assistant Michael Amir Williams has sued concert promoter AEG, saying he lost out on a massive paycheck because AEG negligently employed Dr. Conrad Murray for Jackson's "This Is It" series of shows.
Murray was eventually convicted of manslaughter for administering the dose of Propofol that killed Jackson.
A rep for AEG told TMZ, "This lawsuit is clearly frivolous; it is literally barred by at least four different legal doctrines."
Yeah ... well, is it barred by the Monroe Doctrine, smart guy?
Sorry. That made about as much sense as this lawsuit.
Anyway, AEG contends Williams doesn't have a case because he was never a beneficiary of Jackson's contract with AEG, so he can't legally bring a claim for Jackson's wrongful death.
As far as AEG is concerned, Williams' lawsuit is an attempted money grab that won't work.
"This is just the latest wrongful death lawsuit with someone hoping to profit from Michael Jackson's tragic death in the same way they profited from his life."

Matcha Clay Masque
Matcha, a Japanese green tea laden with antioxidants, is combined with french clay, producing a masque that is both nutrient-rich & cleansing.
4 oz loose matcha clay in bag
Powdered green tea, French clay
This grade of matcha is not for drinking. Refer to the "Use" section for how to prepare the mud masque.
Green Tea
Both black and green tea originate from the same plant, the Camellia sinensis. However, the final product differs in style, taste and caffeine content due to differences in processing. Green teas are not fermented or fully oxidized like black teas, but instead steamed or pan fired.
Like black teas though, green tea contains an abundant source of natural plant-derived antioxidant compounds called polyphenols. Included within the broad antioxidant polyphenol class are flavonoids and catechins. A kind of flavonoid, catechins are found in tea leaves and may provide protective antioxidant action against harmful free radicals.
Research shows that these free radicals cause heart disease, some kinds of cancer and increase the risk of strokes. Drinking green tea with its high antioxidant levels help protect the body by combating dangerous free radical activity.
Further health benefits of green tea may include lowering cholesterol, strengthening the immune system, promoting healthy blood vessel functionality and even protecting teeth and bones. In addition, green tea provides a source of nutrients including magnesium, Manganese, potassium, calcium, and the vitamins C and K all in trace amounts.
For 1 masque:
1. Combine 2 tsp. of Matcha Clay Masque, 3 1/2 tsp. of filtered water.
2. Stir together
3. Use cotton buds to apply paste on face, avoid eye area.
4. Let dry on face for 10-15 minutes
5. Remove mud masque with a warm, wet washcloth. Pat face dry with a towel.

November 29, 2005
A week after a killer murdered one and wounded two others in North Augusta, authorities have released a profile of the suspect. They believe the killer most likely works or lives near the shooting. They also believe the killer has a history of conflict with family, friends and co-workers. The search for the gunman is coordinated in a command center and for the first time investigators gave us a look inside. News 12 takes you there.
This is the heart of the investigation to find the Huddle House killer, the command center. Members of the FBI, SLED and local agencies are following all leads here. They start here, getting organized and end up tracked down outside.
"We've got GIS mapping over there of the scene, where this happened," Lee Wetherington said.
North Augusta Public Safety Chief Lee Wetherington gives a tour of the command center. In here, people like Aiken County Sheriff Michael Hunt and SLED investigators track the more than 140 leads that have come in. The room is filled with tools to follow every one. Computers with direct links to the FBI, the Highway Department and jails are here to track people of interest.
"The suspects that we have that are people of interest, we go through a process of elimination," Wetherington said.
Maps, a detailed suspect description and a to do list line the walls. Officers hold conference calls in here with the FBI and investigators across the country. They say those have recently given them more detail about this suspect and they know they'll get their man.
"We kick the right bush, he'll come out," Wetherington said.
A new visual to show you, police believe the killer was wearing a ski mask like this one when he shot his victims. They believe he took it off when they stole the car.

I really have been neglecting the blog lately what with all my extra time going into finishing up the cookbook. I am starting to feel pangs of guilt, like a negligent parent. I miss the regular postings and interaction with you all. I also feel bad that I have not been offering any ideas for the impending holiday season.

What sort of sugar are you using to feed the cultures in the yogurt? It has to be enough to substitute the lactose effect from milk... All I know is it can't be honey for its antibacterial properties.
Those bread loaves look gorgeous.

Have you tried this for the yogurt?
I just started making my own milks (soy, nut, whole grain, etc) and i love experimenting with the new milk maker! I bought the tofu and soy yogurt mixes, but haven't tried it yet!

Don't feel bad! It's definitely the season - it makes everyone feel so rushed; even the most inane things scream for our attention.
The snow in Ottawa has been unbearable as well, though right now it's melting and making slippery roads and sidewalks... All we can hope for is sun for the holidays, right?
Those rolls look so yummy! Are you going to post a recipe or is this one of those secret family recipes? HAHA!
Cheer up, remember theres a ton of cookies and other Christmas goodies to look forward too!

I'm curious about the soy yogurt experiments... I thought I understood that the tang came from Lactobacillus bacteria, which - as the name suggests - only eats lactose? Although, maybe it will go for any sugar..? Keep us posted!
And no worries on the blog, I think everyone (me, anyway) is too busy themselves to complain!

Dude... I know how you feel but you'll get over it. I posted almost every day for about the first year of my blog, then I scaled back to about 3x per week, now with a baby in the house I'm lucky if I post once a week. And what I consider a "quality" post happens about once a month it seems...
You're still churning out a helluva lot of awesome content and if I only have time to check one blog this is it.

I make soy yoghurt all the time with a handy little maker I got on Amazon. It has 7 little glass jars. I set it up overnight as it takes about 13 hours. I can't find a vegan starter though, they all seem to have powdered milk in them. You can try it with a scooop of commercial soy youghurt with active cultures. It comes out runnier than commercial youghurt but its really, really yummy. You save one jar for the next batch as your starter.

There is a really good how-to on soy yogurt making at http://blog.fatfreevegan.com/. I've used it a few times and had great luck, I also went ahead and did the extra step of straining the yogurt with cheese cloth because I like it to be thicker. Good luck!

4chan, Reddit, and the Internet's other well-regarded troll havens are once again colluding to send a celebrity somewhere they didn't expect to go.
Their target this time around is break-up singer-songwriter Taylor Swift, who recently teamed up with textbook rental company Chegg and dippable pizza-maker Papa John's for a promotional concert at whichever campus gets the most votes.
With lulz-seekers on the case, it wasn't long before a clear leader emerged: The Horace Mann School for the Deaf and Hard of Hearing in Allston, Massachusetts.
In addition to a performance by Swift, the top five vote-getting schools will each receive a $10,000 grant for their music department.
Horace Mann currently holds a significant lead over the second-place school, but, as one Redditor points out, the Official Rules state Taylor Swift could still opt out of the performance.
She wouldn't do that to her legions of Horace Mann School fans, would she?

16th Annual Trail of Tears Saturday, September 19, 2009
Huntsville, Alabama (September 16, 2009) The 16th Annual Trail of Tears will travel through Madison County on Saturday, September 19, 2009. The ride will enter Madison County on Highway 72 East at Gurley between 8:45 and 9:00 AM and continue west into Huntsville some time between 9:15 and 9:30 AM. The ride will travel onto I-565 and continue westbound until it exits I-565 at Exit 8 and travels north on Wall Triana Highway and then west on Madison Boulevard. The Trail of Tears should begin arriving at the Old Time Pottery shopping center on Madison Boulevard between 10:00 and 10:15 AM, where it will stop for approximately an hour. The Trail of Tears ride will leave the shopping Center at 11:30 AM and travel west on Madison Boulevard, turn right to travel north on County Line Road and then turn left to travel west on Highway 72 West to Athens and on to Florence and Waterloo.
In the past, the Trail of Tears rides have exited I-565 at the Madison Boulevard, Highway 20 exit. The decision to exit at Wall Triana Highway again this year was implemented by the Madison Police Department to reduce congestion along Madison Boulevard east of where the ride stops. This in turn will allow citizens and riders more access to businesses in the area and reduce overall congestion caused by the ride slowing to stop at the shopping center.
Persons traveling west out of Huntsville on I-565 should plan to leave earlier than usual because all westbound on ramps to I-565 will be closed as the ride enters Huntsville. Alternate routes to reach Madison and points west once the ride enters Huntsville will be Old Madison Pike and University Drive, Highway 72 West.
Persons traveling either east or west on Highway 72 West can expect a lengthy delay between 11:45 AM and 1:00 PM as the ride makes the left turn to travel west onto Highway 72 to travel toward Athens. Alternate routes to avoid this congestion will be I-565 or Highway 72 West, south on County Line Road and east on Madison Boulevard.
The Trail of Tears is a cooperative effort between the Alabama State Troopers and all law enforcement agencies, fire departments and ambulance services along the route to insure a successful and safe event.

WALNUT CREEK -- The Alamo couple, increasingly fearful of the next-door neighbor who would film them going about their daily activities on a shared driveway, installed a security camera to record the man's "aggressive and unpredictable behavior."
That security camera captured the tragic end Aug. 27 to the neighborhood flap over use of the driveway in the tony housing development, prosecutors say in court documents. Michael Littman, confronted by Doris and Victor Penico during the latest filming episode, allegedly attacked the couple, killing the 59-year-old woman and leaving her tax attorney husband beaten and bloody.
Littman, a 59-year-old real estate broker and CPA who owns Key Properties Financial in Walnut Creek, pleaded not guilty Thursday to murdering Doris Penico and assaulting Victor Penico with force likely to cause great bodily injury.
He's free on $1.08 million bail and has been ordered not to return to his house on Stonegate Drive, just a few steps away from where Victor Penico still resides with his and Doris' young adult son.
In addition to the security camera that recorded the assault, investigators seized Littman's iPhone, which has video of the confrontation before he became physical. They also have video that Littman's wife Terry filmed of the incident from inside her house -- portions of which prosecutors allege she hid from investigators.
While the Sheriff's Office initially said the incident involved mutual combat based on the Littmans' statement, prosecutors say there is no evidence on the videos that Doris or Victor Penico ever struck Michael Littman. What they allegedly show is Littman bodychecking Doris with a forearm to the torso as he was chasing down Victor Penico between bouts of punching him in the head. Doris Penico hit her head on the concrete and never regained consciousness before dying the next day.
Michael Littman held down Victor Penico and pummeled him before abruptly stopping and walking past Doris' lifeless body without breaking stride, prosecutors wrote.
Alice Gilson, a friend of the Penicos, said she was horrified but not totally surprised when she heard from the family that Doris, a retired attorney, was dead and Littman was responsible.
"I know I've been hearing about him and his harassment for a number of years," Gilson said Thursday from Silver Spring, Md. "There were times she felt afraid of him because he would be very angry. I said try to avoid him, and she would try."
The Penicos moved about a decade ago from Silver Spring, where Doris was a civic activist instrumental in blocking a giant mall, saving a 1938 art deco theater and spurring the revitalization of a once-blighted downtown, Gilson said. The Littmans moved in a few years later, and their shared driveway soon became a point of contention, as prosecutors say Michael Littman would block in the Penicos' cars with his van, hindering the couple's ability to come and go.
Littman's attorney, Michael Cardoza, describes Doris Penico's death as accidental, the result of her falling and hitting her head on the steep, concrete driveway as her husband and Littman engaged in a struggle that the Penicos initiated. Meanwhile, prosecutors say the incident was caught on video three ways, and there is no evidence that Doris or Victor Penico ever struck Littman. Cardoza said he's seen some of the videos but has yet to review others he just received by the DA's office.
Cardoza said the Littmans were filming the Penicos to document their behavior during driveway conflicts.
"They were not the meek and mild people that they are being portrayed as," Cardoza said. "All of our evidence shows that the Penicos were very much the aggressors and always angry about the driveway situation.
"Murder is absolutely an inappropriate charge in this case, but we will take it head on. This thing will end up in trial, I'm sure."
There were other issues as well: Arguments over newspaper delivery, landscaping and a deer fence that the Littmans and the Alamo Stonegate Homeowners Association sued each other over in 2007.
Gilson said the neighbors live in a homeowners association with a lot of rules, and Doris frequently complained that Michael Littman wouldn't stick to them.
"It seemed he had to have control of a situation, and when he couldn't, he would be a bully," Gilson said. "She didn't want anything unusual; she just didn't wanted the driveway blocked."

Kart Lift Stand For Sale
by Stephen Grossman » Sat Aug 27, 2011 11:43 am
SOLD! Selling a kart work stand that allows one person to easily lift a kart to work height by pumping a foot pedal. Stand uses a hydraulic bottle jack to lift the kart. Has large all terrain wheels in the back and casters in the front. I think it was originally made/sold by PKP/Yellowfin. It is very sturdy and has not had heavy usage, still in good shape. Simply roll the kart backwards up the aluminum ramps, then pump the foot pedal at the back to raise the kart.
- Stand in up position, ramps automatically fold so as not to protrude beyond the kart.

OK, the earth may be spinning off its axis.
Battle Mountain girls lacrosse beat Aspen, 14-10, in Pitkin County Tuesday. That avenged a 15-4 season-opening loss to the Skiers.
"It's no words," senior co-captain Hayley Clarke said. "It's awesome. I don't know. It's amazing. I'm so proud of my team."
Clarke is the only senior for the Huskies, and, as such, she's seen much leaner days for the lacrosse team. In previous years, Battle Mountain was on the wrong end of thumpings, so life is pretty sweet at 7-3.
And then, there's Aspen. In addition to the Opening Day loss, the Skiers outscored the Huskies, 30-8, in two meetings last year.
"I think it's the fact that we're all together now," Huskies coach Emily Jaissle said. "For the first game (against Aspen), we didn't have all our players together. We weren't on the same page. Today, we were all present, together and playing for each other."
Maddi Conlin had four goals and four assists. Clare Baker had five goals and one helper. Mabry Gentry had a hat trick and Tyra Kuller finished with two goals and an assist. Sienna Miller back-stopped it all in goal with 12 saves.
The Huskies have three games left - at Eagle Valley Thursday; at Fruita Monument May 1 and home for Grand Junction May 3.
A reminder - CHSAA girls lacrosse has not split into two classifications like the boys, so the playoff picture remains murky, despite Battle Mountain's breakout season.
But that got us to thinking - how are other teams in the county looking with regard to the postseason?
The rundown:
Track and field
Welcome to our first look at milespilt.com. In 4A, the top 18 times and distances make it. For 1A Vail Christian, it's the top nine. My rule of thumb, from surfing this site early and often, is that you can only get really comfortable with a state invite if you're in the top five at 4A and top three in 1A.
So congrats to Eagle Valley's Michelle Carbajal in the triple, Battle Mountain's Mandy Ortiz in the 3,200 meters and Vail Christian's Taylor Alexander (100, 200 and pole vault), Celia Smith (high jump) and Mack Cooper (pole vault).
Is it just me or are we seeing a whole lot more Eagle Valley in the state 18? (Hint: It ain't just me.)

Battle Mountain is in the league playoffs. After that, who knows? This is just nutty.
Battle Mountain has a 7-1-2 record. Steamboat Springs will likely finish with the same record - its last game is against Summit County. So who wins the division?
First tiebreaker is head to head: Both the Huskies and Sailors drew in both their games.
Second tiebreaker is results against teams in the rest of the division: That doesn't help since both teams will likely have season sweeps against Eagle Valley and Summit.
Third tiebreaker is results against opponents in the Western Divison: Only problem here is that Glenwood Springs and Palisade should end up tied at 8-2. D'oh.
Fourth tiebreaker is goals allowed in your own division: Battle Mountain and Steamboat are tied.
Fifth tiebreaker is goals allowed against the Western Division: Battle Mountain by one goal.
So, Battle Mountain coach David Cope's best guess - and he is the resource on Western Slope tiebreakers - is the Huskies play Glenwood Springs Tuesday at Battle Mountain, while Steamboat Springs is at Palisade in the league semifinals.
In the meantime, the Huskies host Coal Ridge Thursday for Senior Night. And please don't ask about the state-playoff picture. It's more complicated than the league picture.
Boys lacrosse
The Huskies are 9-2. They're ranked No. 9 in The Denver Post 4A Poll. Barring losing their last four games or some other nightmare scenario, they're probably in. But I really don't trust CHSAA. It's not kind to Mountain Conference teams. The Huskies host Summit tonight at 6 for Senior Night to start the four-game stretch. Please win.
Eagle Valley took care of business Tuesday afternoon, pounding the Huskies, 14-0, for the season sweep. The Devils (6-1) are in second place in the Slope, one half-game ahead of Delta and two back of Palisade.
The top-three teams from the Slope make districts, and Eagle Valley looks pretty solid on that front. A sweep this weekend against Rifle would all but clinch a district berth for the Devils. The bigger question will be if Eagle Valley can play with Palisade and Delta, whom it faces in the final week of the regular season. Palisade and Delta are the cream of the Slope until the Devils can prove otherwise.

The regular monthly meeting (on March 15) is approaching and only a week away. Here are some items of interest about the meeting:
1. The program will feature guest speaker Joe Hayden of Quitman talking about Wood County veterans. Vice-president Dorothy Harbin is working on some additional ideas to go with that theme.
2. If there is time, we may also be able to work on the accumulation of obituaries in the Genealogy Research Center. You might want to bring some scissors and glue sticks just in case.
3. President Shirley Patrick has sent a message asking that we let members know that she will be unable to attend the March meeting due to grandchildren visiting over Spring Break, and she has ask the vice-president to preside at the meeting.
4. Dorothy is still working on the program for April and expects to hear soon about a confirmed speaker about several of the earliest settlers families in the county.
5. Also be aware that election of officers for next year is scheduled for the May meeting every year. If you have ideas, etc. you might contact President Patrick to pass on to the nominating committee.
6. If you want to get with the group meeting before the meeting at Peralta's in Quitman, we gather and visit and eat starting at 5:30 p.m.

We had story time at Helensvale as the centre was promoting The Lorax movie. That was fun and reminded me how much fun and how tricky it is to read Dr Suess aloud. The movie looks great.
As a mum myself i have plenty of adorable handmade gifts from my own adorable children. Blinged up hairbrushes, hand painted tiles, paper mosaic cards.....all of which i loved. If however, you would like to add a little something to the handmade treasures or if your children are now to old for craft, we have soooooo many great idea's
Poets Cottage by Josephine Pennicott, I loved this book. Fantastic story, great characters, beautifully set in Tasmania. I wont give the plot away too much but this book is perfect for lots of mums. For fans of Shifting Fog by Kate Morton or Wildfower Hill by Kimberly Freeman. (ps:they are also good choices for mum).
The Tea Rose is the first in a trilogy, again a bit of a historical fiction with great characters. This is a book that all of us a Love That Book recommend and we have sold hundreds of it over the years. Good thing is you can also back up with Book 2 for a brthday and book 3 for Christmas (if mum can hold out that long).
The French Dog, companion to the French Cat that came out last year. These books are sooooooo lovely. Whether your mum is a cat lover, a dog lover, a Francophile or just a lover of beautiful photos, these books are a gorgeous gift. You really need to flick through to see how lovely they are.
Finally for today, The Hunger Games. I'm sure lots of you have heard of this trilogy by now. The movie was released a few weeks ago. Already a great seller, this set of books has now gone crazy. Hunger Games is the first book, followed by Catching Fire and finally Mockingjay. I read Hunger Games a few years ago and it really is fantastic, well written, a story line that sucks you in and wont let you go and a main character that is a strong and passionate heroine. This is a book for everyone, give it to mum then borrow it back to read yourself, hehe.
Last thing for today, we are putting the final touches to our new Recommened Reads. As soon as the list is complete I will put it up on the webpage for you all to check out. Welcome back to Paris from the Helensvale store, she has been on holidays for the last 6 weeks. Nice to have her back and welcome aboard to Jo who has taken up a position at the Southport Store. Jo is bright, bubbly and loves books. She will be a great addition to the already super team there.
Well, thats all for now,

ST. HELENA -- House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi got some bad news Monday, but it wasn't from the polls on election eve.
Thieves broke into a home owned by the longtime Democratic representative for San Francisco on Monday afternoon, smashing two glass doors and setting off an alarm. No one was home at the time of the break-in.
The alarm company notified the Napa County Sheriff's Department, which sent deputies to the home on Zinfandel Lane around 2:53 p.m., according to Capt. Tracey Stuart. Deputies found the glass broken on the front door and a pool house door, Stuart said. The suspects were already gone, and no arrests were made.
Detectives are still trying to determine if anything was taken, Stuart said.
Pelosi also owns a home in San Francisco's Pacific Heights neighborhood. She is expected to win re-election to her 13th full term representing heavily Democratic San Francisco in Congress on Tuesday.

No Budget, No Pay

We have before both houses of Congress a bill that states no budget, no pay.
I hope the good people of Florida will contact their representatives and ask they endorse this commonsense bill.
It is asking no more of those in Washington than any good employer would ask of their employees — do your job or get fired. In this case, no budget, no pay.

BERKELEY -- More than once this week, Arizona State coach Todd Graham called the Cal offensive line the best the Sun Devils have seen this season.
Yes, the same unit that allowed 13 sacks the past two games and helped generate just 77 rushing yards at USC last Saturday.
Asked if the Bears are capable of living up to Graham's expectations, senior center Brian Schwenke said, "Oh, absolutely. If we do exactly what we're supposed to do, we can beat any front seven.
"But if we're not doing that, it doesn't matter who we're playing."
Actually, Schwenke suggested the opponent was very much a factor last week, when the Trojans sacked Cal quarterback Zach Maynard seven times.
"We have some younger guys who don't have that confidence, and then we're going against USC," Schwenke said. "They've seen USC their whole lives, and they get there and they have that intimidation."
Schwenke, the lone healthy returning starter on the line, said he remembers having that same reaction when he was younger, losing his concentration, then his technique.
"As you get older you realize they're not actually anything special," he said. "But if you don't do what you're supposed to do, you're going to get beat."
On Saturday, the Bears are playing a 3-1 Arizona State team that ranks first in the Pac-12 in scoring defense (12.8 points per game) and total defense (274.0 yards per game).
And if the pass protection and running game don't improve, the 1-3 Bears could sink into Pac-12 oblivion.
One factor in the line's inconsistent play is youth. The Bears start redshirt freshman Jordan Rigsbee and sophomore Chris Adcock at the guards.
Two seniors who started every game last season have combined to play in just one game this fall. Dominic Galas, moved from center to guard in the spring, tore a pectoral muscle before the start of fall camp and isn't expected to be healthy until sometime in October.
Tackle Matt Summers-Gavin, regarded as the Bears' top offensive lineman, has missed the past three games with a knee injury. His status for this week remains uncertain.
As a result, coach Jeff Tedford said, "They're all kind of learning under fire. They played against some pretty talented guys the last couple weeks, and that won't change as we go through our conference play."
The biggest letdown at USC was the Bears' inability to run the ball, coming a week after they had 224 rushing yards at Ohio State.
Keeping opponents off Maynard is another story. Asked about the six sacks at Ohio State and seven at USC, Schwenke said, "We know that can't happen."
But Tedford said, "All the pass protection things are not completely on the offensive line."
It hasn't helped that three Cal tight ends -- including would-be starter Richard Rodgers — have been injured. Route-running by the wideouts also is a factor, Tedford said, as is blocking by the backs. Sophomore Brendan Bigelow, an explosive ball carrier, still is mastering the art of helping to protect the passer.
Maynard's responsibility is to limit sacks by getting rid of the ball or scrambling for yardage when the play breaks down.
"He's made some plays with his legs," Tedford said of Maynard, who had 47 yards at USC on designed runs or scrambles. "I would prefer him to (do that rather) than try to throw into coverage, and he's been doing a pretty decent job of that."

Tottenham Hotspur Message Board
LA Galaxy
Anyone see the game this morning? I've just read the Yahoo and 'Spurs' reports (http://www.tottenhamhotspur.com/spurs/News/la-galaxy-vs-spurs-24072012.page?) and this one: (http://losangeles.sbnation.com/la-galaxy/2012/7/24/3185315/galaxy-vs-spurs-la-take-tottenham-to-1-1-draw-in-friendly - that made me smile.)
The squad:
Spurs (4-2-3-1): Cudicini; Walker (Naughton, 65), Kaboul (Dawson, 65), Vertonghen, Bassong (Assou-Ekotto, 46); Livermore (Huddlestone, 74), Sigurdsson (Carroll, 76); Townsend (Lennon, 46), van der Vaart (Jenas, 36), Bale (Bentley, 74); Defoe (Kane, 65).
Bentley and Jenas again? That's two friendlies in which they've featured.
The VdV and Walker injuries aren't elaborated on. Hopefully neither are too serious.Sort: Newest | Oldest | Most Replied Expand all replies
"(Huddlestone, 74)" is that how much stone he weighs, after the year off he has had!

SB are you trying to wind John up! You are likely now to trigger a response which includes every known stat about Hudds weight, other PL players weights, average weights, fitness methods and the dietry regimes of every Spurs player.
This might then be followed up with the suggestion that you are wrong about Bale losing weight (with stats to prove it of course), a suggestion that you are "weightest", some bizarre reference to some rare footage of the heaviest professional player ever to have played in the UK all prefaced or ended with either IMO or AFAIK.
There would of course also be several hyper links to various articles and websites which may or may not support all of the stats John puts forward.
This will then spawn at least 3 other seperate posts about semi related topics all written in the same format and with the usual huge dollop of wit, charisma, humour and self depreciation and logic that John is famous for.
What have you done!!
Lady and Gents,
Its my understanding, the clause that will let Ba move for £7mil, ends on Tuesday (31-7-2012) surely any club intending to make a move for him will do so very soon. Unless something has already been agreed- IE £10mil+ Ba for Carroll?
IMO Pardew would be mad to do that.
Its the same old problem for us, with regards to transfers- We Don't Pay the Wages. If Ba is looking to move on and we are trying to compete with the Chavs/ Liverpool, we will struggle.
JL- I saw Jenas and Bentley got more game time! Odd, IMO they should both be forming an orderly cue for the door, but by playing them at least AVB gets to see what they offer (if he didn't already know) he also gives them a shop window for a potential move.
What with the speculation around Luka and Niko's departure and Pienaar apparently heading back to Toffeeland, then he needs to either move Jenas/Bentley on quickly and replace them or work out how to use them.
IMO, The recent publicity from Luka and Niko, is far more damaging for us with regards to future transfers than anything Harry did or didn't do- I had numerous issues with the decisions Harry made and I think Levy and the board had little choice but to remove him from his position. CL football will make a difference- some players demand it- other will demand huge wages neither of which we can offer.
I think we all need to move on from Harry's departure, its done- Whilst he did do a lot to improve us, he also made errors, on the whole I will look at his time with us and try and focus on the positives. Now can we start looking to the future as constantly looking back won't achieve anything- especially as none of us have the full facts.
I think Levy is now playing a very dangerous game- If the statement made by Niko has any truth to it, then this could impact other players moving to us in the future.
Anxiety is building- IMO we need to push on with restructuring our squad- those who need to or want to go should be moved on asap- giving AVB as much time as possible to replace and tweak as is necessary.
Yep, I reckon you're right regarding Pardew's thinking. He wants Carroll back but only if he gets the right cash for Ba. It's a gamble if it comes off because the foundation is well set, feeding Carroll would be a complete different ball game---as well Roy Rogers knows.

Audiversity reviews The Ugly Truth
Prolyphic might have been an edgy character before (which is what initially got him noticed), but he's spittin' mad on this album now. Prolyphic & Reanimator have built one of the most vital indie hip-hop records of the year on a premise of anger that sounds like the inverse of, say, the Clipse: While the brothers Thornton wax caustically disinterested over coked out beats when their albums hit trouble, Prolyphic comes out with furious passion and Reanimator concocts maximal beats honed on past Francis albums like 2002's memorable Personal Journals and last year's Human the Death Dance. "Broken Bottles" and "Born Alone" open up the album with breathless rhymes that barely stop for air.
This dense style is what characterizes so much of independent hip-hop today: By sacrificing futuristic club beats or ridiculously inane Urban Dictionary catchphrases for serious (and often self-serious) floetry with generic bargain bin funk beats, it's easy for artists to fall into the perilous pigeonhole of backpacker. In some ways, The Ugly Truth lands a direct hit for social responsibility and brooding over the state of any inanimate object or concept within a ten-foot radius. "No time for punchlines / That's why I'm bitter," right there in "Survived Another Winter."
But "Survived Another Winter" (and "Artist Goes Pop," for that matter) is also a demonstration of why this record does more than merely lament societal indifference at the plight of the poor. This is also a personal journal of Prolyphic's own, a peek into the psyche of two dudes who have had this record brewing inside them for three years. What would the difference have been had they not lost those hard drives and put this out at the tail-end of the climax over Rhymesayers and Anticon?
That's not for us to answer. All we know for sure is what The Ugly Truth delivers: a solid hip-hop album that pulls no punches during its extended 58-minute run-time. If there was one complaint, it would be that the truth takes so long to get out... But sometimes you've got to delve just that little bit deeper just that little bit longer to get the ugliest bits out. In that light, Prolyphic & Reanimator's debut is a resounding success. It doesn't get much more honest than this.

Detour Mag review
On Ugly Truth, the new collabo record from Providence, Rhode Island MC Prolyphic and Chicago-based producer Reanimator, the beats and raps work in true concert with one another, rising and falling and intersecting at weird angles so that all the gaps and strange little percussive back alleys that permeate tracks like Born Alone, the single Artist Goes Pop, and Survived Another Winter (which also features the duos benefactor, Sage Francis) are just the kind of pocket Lyphic needs to illustrate his tales of struggle, darkness, and thriving in the face of adversity. What kind of adversity? It could be cosmic, with the way these dudes are riffing on some strange cheese. Dick and Jane tumbles in a more upbeat way, mostly because of its central sample, and also features a killer cameo from Australian MC and friend of Kill Rock Stars Macromantics, but for the most part Ugly Truth doesnt break from the gloom and resignation of its title. My heart explodes into a thousand downloads, Prolyphic says in Artist Goes Pop, and in that moment you understand that what these guys are really worried about is losing their humanity in the face of too many pops and buzzes.

Their needs to be more talk about how amazing this records is. I am beginning to feel like some sort of sponsored fan or something, but for me this is one of my favorite hip-hop records ever. Everytime I listen to a track it becomes my new favorite, currently I am amazed by the lyrics on Easier Said Than Done and Two Track Mind, while On The Side and Box Within A Box are just hitting hard.

Easier Said and Two Track Mind are my two favorites I think.
I strongly urge all "sponsored fans" to not be so ashamed of the fact that you like this album so much and go on with spreading it to friends elsewhere. This forum already knows about the album. Every time I try to post about it in other places people just think I'm trying to promote a record just because it's on my label. P&R would greatly benefit from more support from the fans who are into the material. They're in a position where that kind of support is necessary for their expansion.
I'm excited that people are digging the album so much. Now we need more people to hear it.

Yeah I still haven't heard the whole album. But every time someone says it's the greatest indie-hop record ever, I get some percentage curiouser.
I've been such a huge fan of the Failure that the Ugly Truth has grown into this like evil rival for Failure attention. I'm very much of the mindset of "how dare you talk about Ugly Truth, FAILURE nOObs!" Surely this will pass. Ostensibly because I'm not five years old.
To be fair, this is also what's keeping me from listening to the new Atmosphere album.

[" What would the difference have been had they not lost those hard drives and put this out at the tail-end of the climax over Rhymesayers and Anticon?"
this line make anyone else curious? Anticon may have climaxed, but Rhymesayers? Soundset 08 doesn't seem like the event of a label in decline. When Life Gives You Lemons doesn't sound like decline (if we want to go by numbers, Rhymesayers just had by far their largest first-week sales). And with what I expect from Ali, I self, P.O.S (and the rest of doomtree) and almost every other rapper on that label, I hardly think they've climaxed.
And on topic - is there anyway to get those instrumentals with the disc anymore?

And now I love sharing the joy of kosher cooking with people like me: Busy parents who want to make real food for real families in a snap, and people who want to entertain without slaving in the kitchen, knowing their dishes will always elicit oohs and aahs. Our Sabbath and holiday meals are warm, fun, and flowing with food, family, and tons of guests. Do the math: two weekly Shabbos meals + 26 holiday banquets = 130 feasts per year, not to mention feeding my hungry family every other day of the week. That plus a full-time job should qualify me as some kind of expert in fast, fresh family dinners!
Here in Joy of Kosher I share more than 100 of my absolute best recipes and give each a creative twist: Dress It Up—add some bling for your party table—or Dress It Down and lure your picky eaters to meals they'll beg for again and again. That's more than 200 recipes!
A few of my faves:
- Crystal Clear Chicken Soup with Julienned Vegetables and Angel Hair (Dress It Down: Chicken Noodle Alphabet Soup)
- Garlic Honey Brisket (Dress It Down: Honey Brisket Pita Pockets)
- Miso-Glazed Salmon (Dress It Up: Avocado-Stuffed Miso-Glazed Salmon)
- Butternut Squash Mac 'n' Cheese (Dress It Down: Mac 'n' Cheese Muffin Cups)
- Gooey Chocolate Cherry Cake (Dress It Up: Red Wine Chocolate Cherry Heart Cake)
And talk about challah! I give you ten yummy variations, including Sun-Dried Tomato, Garlic, and Herb Braided Challah; Blueberry Apple Challah Rolls; Sea-Salted Soft Challah Pretzel Rolls; and Gooey Pecan Challah Sticky Buns. All that, plus gorgeous photos, wine pairings, time-savers, and my guide to sane, no-jitters holiday menus. I hope you love this book as much as I loved writing it for you!
