Dufner Rules at Oak Hill
Jason Dufner closed with an often-spectacular but ultimately steady 2-under 68 to win his first major title, the PGA Championship at Oak Hill Country Club in Rochester, N.Y.
The 36-year-old Ohioan, who lost in a playoff in the PGA two years ago to Keegan Bradley at Atlanta Athletic Club, finished at 10-under 270, two strokes ahead of 54-hole leader Jim Furyk, who closed with a 71.
Dufner became the 19th different winner in the past 21 majors; only defending PGA champion Rory McIlroy and Phil Mickelson won twice during that period. "It's been a tough day, a long day, a tough golf course," a relieved Dufner said at greenside before accepting the Wanamaker Trophy.
"I still can't believe this is happening to me. To come back from a couple of years ago in this championship when I lost to Keegan in a playoff and win feels really, really good."
As for the difference in his mental approach from this year and 2011, when he blew a five-stroke lead with four holes to play and lost to Bradley in a three-hole aggregate playoff, Dufner said, "I decided I was going to be confident and put my best foot forward and play aggressive and try to win this thing. I wasn't going to play scared or soft. It's a big step for my career."
After going 4-under through 16 holes thanks to four birdies, Dufner dropped his only two shots of the day on the 17th and 18th, long and tough par-4s. On the closing hole both he and Furyk put their drives in the first cut of rough on the right-hand side of the fairway. From 200 yards out, Furyk, two strokes down to Dufner and needing a birdie along with a mistake by his playing partner in the final group, pulled his approach into deep rough left of the green.
Dufner hit what looked to be a fine second from 171 yards, but it came up short of the green and stopped on the steep, deep-grass incline in front of the putting surface. From a horrible lie, Furyk came up just short with his third, then pitched past the hole and two-putted from there for his second bogey in a row.
Dufner hit a nice flop shot to 12 feet, and two-putted for the winning bogey. The usually emotionless player let out a big sigh, raised his arms to wild cheering from the gallery, and walked to the scoring tent, stopping long enough to embrace his wife Amanda and, shortly after, hugging Bradley, who was waiting for him.
The veteran Furyk, who entered the final round a stroke ahead of Dufner, wasn't too disappointed with his performance. "I played a solid round of golf, I feel I was really striking the ball well on the back nine," the 16-time Tour winner and 2003 U.S. Open champion said at greenside. "Didn't think I did anything wrong on 17 and 18. I was actually proud I was able to get it up on the green on 18."
The two Swedes in the penultimate group, Henrik Stenson and Jonas Blixt, both shot even-par 70s to end up in third and fourth, respectively.
Scott Piercy carded the low final round - a 5-under 65 - to rise up the leaderboard into a tie for fifth at 275 with Australia's Adam Scott. The 2013 Masters champion had a 70.
Piercy had it going for much of Sunday. After a bogey on the par-4 second, the 34-year-old from Las Vegas reeled off five birdies to make the turn in 4-under 31, then tacked on two more on Nos. 11 and 13. After a bogey on the par-3 15th, he birdied the next but closed with a bogey on the last.
Piercy knew he'd have to go very low to have any chance of catching the leaders. "It's funny, I tweeted last night I'm thinking 62," he told PGATour.com. "With the birdie putt on 14 to get to 7 (-under), I was right on pace. Hit a bad putt there, then came back on 16 and made a birdie."
Alone in seventh at 276 was 46-year-old David Toms. The 2001 PGA champion finished with a 67. Another stroke back were Australia's Jason Day (67) and Americans Zach Johnson (67) and Dustin Johnson (69); Zach and Dustin are not related. Also at that number was defending PGA champion McIlroy, who closed with a 70 that involved four birdies, a triple at the par-4 fifth and a bogey on the 16th.
McIlroy's fellow Ulsterman, Graeme McDowell, carded a wild, eight-birdie-four-bogey 66 to rise into a tie for 12th at 278 with Australia's Marc Leishman (68), Scotland's Marc Warren (69) and Americans Boo Weekley (67), Roberto Castro (70), Kevin Streelman (70) and Steve Stricker (73).
Bradley fired a 66 to finish T-19 at 279 with Rickie Fowler (69) and Japan's Hideki Matsuyama (66). After falling from contention with a 76 Saturday, Matt Kuchar carded a 71 for a share of 22nd at even-par 280 with Michael Thompson and England's David Lynn, who both shot 71s.
Other than Dufner's heroics, the shot of the day came from Tim Clark, who carded the only ace of the PGA Championship when he hit a 3-hybrid on the 220-yard 11th hole that landed on the green, took off rolling and clunked into the cup.
U.S. Open winner Justin Rose rebounded from third-round 77 with a 72 to end up in 33rd at 3-over 283. The year's other major winner, British Open champion Phil Mickelson, opened with two straight 71s but shot 78 and 72 over the weekend to end up tied for 72nd at 12-over 292.
"I didn't play very well the last two weeks," said Mickelson, who finished T21 in last week's WGC-Bridgestone Invitational, 16 shots behind winner Tiger Woods. "I'm not going to worry about it. I'm going to go home and take a few days off and just kind of forget these last couple weeks where I haven't struck it the way I have for a few months."
No. 1-ranked Woods shot his second even-par 70, which accompanied a 71 and 73 in the championship, to finish tied for 40th at 284. Woods won at Firestone by seven shots, but admitted later that his game was off at Oak Hill.
"I put in four good rounds last week," said Woods, who'll be seeking his elusive 15th major title in next year's Masters. "Didn't seem to hit it as good and didn't make many putts until the last few holes today. I didn't give myself many looks and certainly didn't hit the ball good enough to be in it."
The 2011 British Open champion at Royal St. George's in England, Darren Clarke of Northern Ireland, got progressively worse as the PGA went on. After starting with a 69, the 44-year-old posted rounds of 73, 74 and 80 to end up in last place.

Willie's ouster: Was it a twick or Tweet?
Harry McGee
There will be a lot of commentary about how Dan Boyle's two blogs on his Twitter site on Wednesday night did for Willie O'Dea. Though new media enthusiasts will always point trimphantly to how some miracle was achieved Facebook or Twitter or whatever, all it is is a pretty basic form of communication, with its own benefits but also with its own limits.
The reason why it took on such resonance was that Boyle was departing from the official party line. If Twitter didn't exist I am sure he would have found some other means (a blog, an email to a journalist, a phone call or a text) to vent his displeasure.
It's the message and not the medium that counts. And Boyle's message provided a couple of uncomfortable home truths for the Green Pary and also for Fianna Fail. The charade of a confidence motion in the Dáil on Wednesday was a disaster for both parties.
Indeed, the approach of both parties this week (and even in the past two weeks) to Willigate was a shambles.
The Government didn't cop on to the potential damage it could have caused.
Sure, the story was ignored. Everybody missed a trick on it. But when it returned to the heart of the agenda, there was no use fobbing people off asking silly diversionary questions about why has everybody ignored it for two months.
The trouble for Willie also spelled a clear and present danger for both parties in Government.
The clear evidence is that both were in denial about it and completely ignored its combustive nature until it was too late.
On Monday, the line of both Government parties was this. It was all disposed off in a court case two months ago. The matter is closed. They were also giving the (wrong) impression that the High Court had accepted and approved O'Dea's explanation that his swearing of the false affidavit was innocent. It had done nothing of the kind. The phrase was part of the settlement arrived at between his lawyers and Maurce Quinlivan's lawyers. O'Dea was over a barrel and had to pay a substantial sum of money to Quinlivan for slandering him. His lawyers did well to get that "off the hook" phrase included.
O'Dea had three problems. He had made a false and malicious allegation against Quinlivan that he was a criminal and was involved in brothel-keeping. He swore an affidavit denying it. He apologised in Court because he had to but never apologised for the slur in public, indeed continued to repeat it even in his statemetn on Wednesday.
The Litany of things Taoiseach Brian Cowen and his Ministers and his handlers did wrong.
1. They didn't realise the magnitude of the problem until it was too late
2. They didn't do proper research into the background of the case
3. They resorted wholly on a line in a settlement between two parties in a court case as if it gave Willie O'Dea a clean bill of health. It didn't. He had made an appalling slur. He had still lied on oath.
4. The defence of Willie throughout the week should have included an acknowledgement that what Willie had done was wrong and Cowen should have at the very least slapped him on the wrist.
5. Nobody vetted O'Dea's original statement to see if it would ease matters or throw more fat onto the fire. It did the latter of course.
5. Cowen's strategy of ordering an early no confidence debate backfired.
6. Cowen's own speech was terrible. No apology. No acknowledgment of any wrongdoing. An attack on Fine Gael. Totally misjudged the mood. He also allowedO'Dea to make a speech that was obscenely out of kilter with what was required.
7. Allowing Dermot Ahern to make nasty jibes and heckles and chortle his way through the whole debate also went down terribly.
What Willie did Wrong
1. He was caught bang to rights and should have been contrite from the start. Instead, he set off as if he were the victim and he was wronged. His Sunday Independent article was a disgrace and his two statements were self-serving.
2. His aggressive performances in the Dail.
3. His singular failure to apologise fully for accusing a candidate of being a criminal brothel-keeper.
4. His portrayal of himself as a victim.
5. His allegation in the Dail that the guards told him. That opened up another can of worms for him.
What the Greens did wrong
1. Following he Fianna Fail party line early in the week without teasing out the impliction of the story.
2. Not thinking its approach through. The party needed to say in public that Willie O'Dea had behaved badly but that on balance it believed him that he did not swear a false affidavit deliberately. It was a serious matter but not a resigning issue.
3. Eamon Ryan's performance in the confidence debate in the Dail. He rushed in at the last minute, after giving the chief whip Pat Carey a double hernia. It became clear from early on that he had no script. Instead he gave a halting speech that looked like it had been dictated to him by Fianna Fail. He could have put the whole thing into context, setting out the Greens uncomfortable position with O'Dea's behaviour, while giving him the benefit of the doubt.
4. The terrible optics of the party reversing its position within 24 hours and trying to justify it all under the heading of 'newly discovered facts'.

Consumer electronics and software giant Apple, Inc. made waves last month when the company filed an application with the U.S. Patent Office for a wireless ordering system, and quick-serves should be paying attention.
In U.S. Patent Application #20070291710, Apple describes technology that would allow consumers to use a wireless device, such as a phone or media player, to remotely order merchandise from a participating merchant. In and of itself, that's nothing new. A number of text and mobile ordering companies have been around since at least 2006, and chains like Papa John's, Pizza Hut, Quiznos, Dunkin' Donuts, and Subway are already utilizing the technology to some extent. But what Apple proposes to do could take the concept a step further by addressing a primary weakness of current systems.
Apple has a way of taking technology that's been around a long time and presenting it in a new way, says Ken German, a senior editor with technology web site CNET.
And as described in the patent application, that's just what Apple is proposing to do.
In order to initiate such a remote transaction [as with current methods of text and mobile ordering] using a cell phone, a user must be aware that a merchant of interest is nearby ," the application states. And that's precisely the variable Apple's proposed system would address, by placing wireless communication devices inside establishments, so when a consumer with an enabled phone or other device is within range, their options for purchase appear. After selecting an item, users would then receive a notification when their order is ready, so they could pick up the item without waiting in line.
Apple already has a relationship with Starbucks, allowing users of the company's online music store, iTunes, to wirelessly download songs playing inside cafes with the push of a button, and that has led to speculation that the coffee giant could be the first to utilize the new ordering technology if or when it becomes a reality. For its part, however, Starbucks is staying mum.
We have made no announcement beyond the partnership we currently have with Apple and iTunes, says Starbucks spokeswoman Bridget Baker. However, we are committed to continuing to innovate on behalf of our customers. As consumer acceptance of Wi-Fi connectivity and innovation grows, well continue to explore a variety of options and will make decisions based on what we believe will be the best customer experience.
Noah Glass, CEO and founder of GoMobo, a current provider of mobile and text ordering for restaurants, says Apple's entrance into the market could be the push the technology needs to reach ubiquity.
I think it's a big validator of the concept we've been doing in the marketplace for over two years, he says.
German agrees.
Typically, Apple doesn't do things half-heartedly, he says. They're not going to do something just because it's trendy.
And wireless ordering is catching on, albeit slowly. GoMobo currently provides text and mobile ordering capabilities to around 200 restaurants in New York City and 10 other areas, including Philadelphia, Chicago, San Diego, San Francisco, and Seattle. Customers love the convenience of being able to avoid the lines, Glass says.
They're coming back more and more with the service, he says. Those who are using this at four or more restaurants are using it incredibly frequently.
Restaurants, especially quick-serves, are also reaping the rewards. Glass says some locations report sales volumes of $3,000 or more a month through the service, and mobile and text orders on average are 24 percent larger than those placed at a traditional point-of-sale system.
It's like how using a credit card you spend more than you would with cash, he says. This is even more abstract. When you're just hitting buttons and food appears, it doesnt feel like you're spending a lot of money right now.
Speed of service and order accuracy also improve with use of the service, as crew members can focus more on filling rather than taking orderskind of like if customers were ordering from a kiosk. The difference, Glass says, is that the upfront costs aren't nearly so high.
It's much easier to use the equipment already in customers' pockets, he says.
If Apple does get into the wireless ordering game, CNET's German says the system will probably only work with the company's own productsiPods, iPhones, or other devices yet to be releasedlimiting the number of consumers who could take advantage. GoMobo and other companies, however, target all phones with web or texting capabilities.
In any case, it could be a while before we find out how this scenario will play out, German says, and there likely won't be any warning, as Apple is famous for springing its new developments on an eager populace without much advance notice.

Penn State released something that looks similar to a depth chart Thursday night, but it doesn't actually reveal any answers about the Nittany Lions' depth entering preseason camp.
The depth chart is broken down based entirely on seniority at every position, with upperclassmen listed first regardless of how little they might have played in the past. So in actuality, the depth chart provides no information about which players might actually be ahead of others in the coaches' eyes.
Which is exactly how new coach James Franklin likes it.
Shortly after getting the job, Franklin said there will be open competition for every position entering fall camp, and the depth chart reinforces that notion.
For instance, the projected No. 1 wide receiver, sophomore Geno Lewis, is listed third at his position, behind juniors DeShawn Baker and Matt Zanellato. Miles Dieffenbach, who's coming back from an ACL injury, is also listed first at right guard even though he won't be ready to play until late in the season, if at all.
So the depth chart is useless? Well, not exactly.
It does at least list the players who will be battling it out at the various positions.
In the kicking game, Sam Ficken not only is listed as place-kicker but also as a punter, meaning he could be handling all of the kicking duties this season.
Adrian Amos and Trevor Williams are among the candidates to return kickoffs, along with freshman speedburner DeAndre Thompkins. The punt return candidates include Jesse Della Valle, Jordan Lucas and Thompkins.
There is no competition at quarterback, and sure enough, Christian Hackenberg is listed first on the depth chart. Then again, that's only because he's the senior most member of the group, and if there was someone who had been around longer, chances are that person would have been listed ahead of Hackenberg.
A more revealing depth chart might not be released until the week of the opener against Central Florida.

Back in February, Naomi Watts said she was looking forward to "rising to the challenge" of playing Princess Diana on screen.
It appears that she's done just that – in the looks department, at least.
Watts, 43, (who will star in next year's biopic Caught in Flight about Diana, Princess of Wales) was photographed in London filming scenes and bearing an uncanny resemblance to the late royal.
Watts was snapped wearing a suit jacket and a short, Di-like haircut to play what she's called an "iconic" role. "Princess Diana was loved across the world," the actress has said. "It is such an honor to be able to play [her]."
Still, we couldn't help but notice Watts's resemblance to another well-known Brit – Tina Brown, well-known journalist and the author of The Diana Chronicles.

Just thought I'd chime in that these days there are, in fact, special servers that just do SSL key processing. They're generally used on very large web server farms used by business-to-business ecommerce companies. They act sort of like a firewall, handling the SSL overhead and hiding the entire SSL operation from the webservers. A bit pricey, but when you're talking about a setup that costs several million dollars to put together (a half dozen or more Sun E250s at about $50K each for the front tier, a handful of Sun E10Ks at about $150K apiece for the middle tier, etc) it starts to make sense.

EAST PALESTINE - After being forced to sit out East Palestine's last football game, Gare Mattes said he could no longer be effective as the head coach.
His letter of resignation was accepted by the East Palestine Board of Education on Monday night.
"Your decision to have me stand down for the last week of practice and the last game of the season has been a source of great personal embarrassment for me and my family, and has compromised my future effectiveness as the head coach," Mattes said in his resignation letter dated Oct. 30.
The Bulldogs were 7-23 in Mattes' three seasons as head coach, including consecutive 2-8 campaigns.
He was relieved of his duties the last week of the season. Defensive coordinator Dave Rankin served as interim head coach and guided the Bulldogs to a 20-12 win at Lisbon on Oct 26.
Mattes came under fire after Crestview defeated the Bulldogs 63-0 on Oct. 19 at Reid Stadium. With the Rebels up 56-0 at the half, the third and fourth quarters were shortened to six minutes each after a halftime meeting with officials and coaches from both schools. Some fans loudly criticized the coach and called for his resignation as he left the field following that game.
When contacted Monday, Mattes said everything he wanted to say was in the letter.
Mattes, the 1988 Associated Press Ohio Division I Coach of the Year, has a career head coaching record of 113-110-3, including 16 seasons at Stow-Munroe Falls, three seasons at Hampton Township (Pa.) and one season at Maricopa (Ariz.). He also was an assistant at Robert Morris University for two seasons.
"I thank the Board of Education for the opportunity you have given me and I wish success for the football program," Mattes said in the letter.
The new coach will take over an East Palestine program that has had one winning season in the past 10 years. That came in 2009, the year before Mattes was hired. That also is the only time in seven years in the Inter-Tri County League upper tier the Bulldogs have had a winning league record.

He's a mender of hearts, a soother of souls, a book author and a unique musician-physician whose message-laden tunes strive to end youth violence and drug use.
His name is Dr. Sam Kojoglanian — and from 2-4 p.m. on Wednesday, March 17, he will be the guest lecturer at a Tri-Valleys Aging Network event, held at the Santa Clarita Valley Senior Center.
Hosted by the Senior Center and Henry Mayo Newhall Memorial Hospital, the presentation will feature Kojoglanian, an interventional cardiologist, talking about heart health, longevity and his ardent efforts to reach out to younger generations and save lives.
"All Tri-Valleys Aging Network members and persons who are non-members but interested in learning about our group are welcome to come and hear Dr. Kojoglanian's fascinating presentation," said Senior Center Director of Supportive Services SuzAnn Nelsen, whose department helps seniors "age in place" (in their own homes) for as long as is safely and healthfully possible.
The Tri-Valleys Aging Network, which represents the Santa Clarita, Antelope and San Fernando valleys, comprises professionals who provide services to seniors and their families. Members include physicians, nurses, care managers, home health care providers, health insurance staff, senior centers staff, newspaper reporters, funeral industry representatives, durable medical equipment representatives, protective services, attorneys and students majoring in areas affecting elders, etc.
Kojoglanian's specialty, interventional cardiology, is a branch of cardiology specifically dealing with the catheter-based treatment of structural heart diseases. As a heart mender, he is trained in performing life-saving and quality-of-life-enhancing cardiac procedures that include: diagnostic cardiac catheterization and angiography; coronary angioplasty; coronary stenting; valvuloplasty; atrial/ventricular septal defect closure; cardiac ablation and more.
"I have heard wonderful things about this doctor's many talents, including raves from my own employees whose loved ones have been saved, thanks to his skilled hands," Nelsen added.
Beats to Own Drum
Kojoglanian, a Newhall Memorial and Providence Holy Cross Medical Center staff member, is also known as "Dr. Rap." His tunes (go online to www.drrap.com) mix anti-youth violence and anti-drug use lyrics with a contemporary rap song style.
Through this distinctive musical outreach, Kojoglanian appeals to young people, trying to make them think seriously about their actions — and the good that life has to offer when one follows a healthy, conscionable, respectful and non-violent path. It was through Kojoglanian's earlier experiences as a young doctor treating Los Angeles gang violence victims that he developed this desire to positively impact the tragic, escalating and preventable situation.
Robert Hill, a Senior Center and Henry Mayo Newhall Memorial Hospital volunteer, echoed Nelsen's praise of Kojoglanian.
"I know from volunteering at the hospital that he is not only a very good interventional cardiologist, he is also a man with a great sense of humor, an excellent bedside manner, and he really loves his patients," said Hill, a technical sales retiree who serves as the Senior Center's registered HICAP (Health Insurance Counseling and Advocacy Program) counselor.
Hill added: "His books are in our gift shop at the hospital."
More on Tri-Valleys
Nelsen reinforced her invitation to community members interested in possible Tri-Valleys membership.
"This group is an amalgam of people who care about seniors and strive to support and assist them in a variety of ways … and we warmly welcome new members," she said.
Tri-Valleys Network goals include:
* Bringing together those professionals in the Greater Los Angeles area who provide services or good to older adults and their families.
* Providing a forum for networking.
* Offering educational opportunities.
* Becoming a vehicle for the exchange of information.
Refreshments will be provided at the event. Attendees are encouraged to preregister. Cost: $10 with preregistration; $15 at door if not preregistered. Please make checks payable to "Tri-Valleys Aging Network." As this is also a networking event, attendees may bring business cards, brochures and flyers.
For further information/registration contact SuzAnn Nelson, SCV Senior Center Supportive Services Director at 255-1588.
The Senior Center is located at 22900 Market St. in Newhall.

ISLAMABAD: Reputed Director General Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) Javed Iqbal is proceeding on three months leave after finding himself unable to be part of the rulersí campaign to fix the Sharifs of Lahore following the recent upsurge in the political temperature in the country.
According to a source three days back some alleged FIA officials had picked up a 70 years old retired accountant of Mian Nawaz Sharif without any such authorization or information of the DG FIA Javed Iqbal, an incident that further damaged the already cold relations between the Interior Ministry and the DG FIA.
The DG, who is a reputed police officer and is known for his integrity, however refused to letthe FIA be used for settling political scores. His uprightness does not suit his political masters, who are in the habit of using state institutions like NAB and FIA for their political gains and to shield the corrupt.
The source said that because of the misuse of FIA and following growing pressures to compel the agency to dance to the tunes of the political masters, Javed Iqbal is seeking three months leave.
According to one source he has already applied for the long leave but this fact could not be confirmed as the DG FIA could not be contacted.It is said that some influential cabinet ministers are lobbying to bring in Zafar Abbas Luk, the incumbent acting Narcotics secretary, who is extra-ordinarily operating to get a clean chit for Musa Gillani in the Ephedrine case.
Javed Iqbal was transferred from position of IG Punjab, two months back, because MPAs of Shahbaz Sharif could not afford his rigid adherence to rule of law and merit in an election year.
Punjab Police in police station Shadman Lahore Monday registered an FIR against some FIA officials for illegally kidnapping and keeping in unlawful custody a 70 year old retired accountant of Sharif Group the business concern of Mian Nawaz Sharif, the leader of PML-N, and two time prime minister.
After the conviction of Prime Minister Yusuf Raza Gilani and following Mian Nawaz Sharifís hard stance demanding Gilani to step down, some leading federal ministers have been openly hurling threats to the PML N leadership.
Amid these high tempers one Muhammad Akram, a retired 70 year old accountant of Sharif Group, complained to Shadman Police station that as he was coming out of mosque adjacent to his house in Shadman on Thursday night three persons in civilian clothes picked him up forcibly and threw him in a blue jeep and took him to a house after driving for 20 minutes.
There they abused him and threatened him with dire consequences if he did not give details of Mian Nawaz Sharifs business concerns.It was only after the kidnappers learnt that Akram was a cardiac patient and had open heart surgery that they let him free after several hours.
Akram alleged that during his confinement and questioning he learnt that they were functionaries of FIA.Police have registered a criminal case against unknown FIA officials and started investigation.

http://gayathens.blogspot.com/ Travelling in Athens is an experience itself.... A city with an impressive history,thousands years old. I...
Trekking Ancient Athens is a must when you visit the capital of Greece. On a romantic weekend, me and the man took our own tour around the city and across the ruins. For €12 there was a freedom pass letting you into six ancient remains. We only got to 4, but each was incredible - with wonderful views, great weather and well-produced city maps.
We didn't get lost once and even when we did there was always friendly greek to help. Getting around by subway was best - quite quick, though beware of any closures, sometimes the underground maps aren't quite clear!
Make sure you go to Andrianou, just by Monastiraki station. It's on the edge of Thissio (an ancient build) filled with coffee shops and restaurants, here you will also fin the flea Market - this is worth haggling for!
Sindragmi is a great place to start (city centre). Just up from here is Kolonki, which is great for a bit of upmarket shopping or just having a coffee. There is a great take-away/eat-in called Goodys in Athens which has excellently priced and tasty fresh food (salads and wraps mainly).
Gazi - the drinks and bars area - is packed at weekends and busy most nights. Here there are a number of gay bars but mostly gay friendly. Attached are photos of the bar fronts, I'll try to upload these as individual venues - but ask if I haven't!
We liked S-Cape, a club/bar with dance floor best to get there about 1am. We were there til 5am.
There's no point going to the Olympic 2004 stadium, it's a bare waste - bit like waking up in the film 28 weeks later. Mind, if you're into that sort of thing, it's worth the trek imaging what it was like with several million people just a few years ago and today - dead, deserted. unkept.
Beware, it does get extremely hot during the day and often without a cloud in the sky due to the circling hills. Also, there's very little shelter in the main city, so make sure you take a hat and plenty of sunscreen.
You may want to check some of the offbeat bars, there are a few not in Gazi in other areas - but we never got there in our four days.

Sonakshi's brother defends her broad frame
By IANS - MUMBAI
Published: 13th November 2013 05:16 PM
Last Updated: 13th November 2013 05:16 PM
Sonakshi Sinha has often faced criticism for her voluptuous frame but her brother, actor Luv, questions why other "more overweight" people are ignored.
"She (Sonakshi) is a hardworking girl. In our industry why do we only talk about few people and ignore those who are even more overweight," Luv said in a conversation with IANS.
He does not believe that a few extra inches are a "flaw".
"Is it compulsory that each and everyone should be stick thin and start fainting on sets? I appreciate beauty in all different forms.
"It's good to see the change...women who are not stick thin. Sona (Sonakshi) is actually thin compared to other actresses (without mentioning the names). The audience loves her and has accepted her the way she is," he added.
Luv debuted as an actor with "Sadiyaan", and will now be seen in Umesh Shukla's next.
Meanwhile Sonakshi, who has worked in the "Dabangg" series and films like "Son of Sardaar", is gearing up for her next release "R...Rajkumar".

Premier banjo player
Béla Fleck
is considered one of the most innovative pickers in the world and has done much to demonstrate the versatility of his instrument, which he uses to play everything from traditional bluegrass to progressive jazz. He was named after composer
Béla Bartok
and was born in New York City. Around age 15,
became fascinated with the banjo after hearing
Flatt & Scruggs
' "Ballad of Jed Clampett" and
Eric Weissberg
Steve Mandell
's "Dueling Banjos," and his grandfather soon gave him one. While attending the High School of Music and Art in New York,
worked on adapting bebop music for the banjo.
always had diverse musical interests, and his own style was influenced by
Tony Trischka
Earl Scruggs
Chick Corea
Charlie Parker
John Coltrane
the Allman Brothers
Aretha Franklin
the Byrds
, and
Little Feat
. After graduation, he joined
the Tasty Licks
, a group from Boston. They recorded two albums and dissolved in 1979. Afterwards,
joined the Kentucky band
. That year, only five years after he took up the instrument, he made his solo recording debut with
Crossing the Tracks
, which the Readers' Poll in
magazine named Best Overall Album. In 1982, he joined
New Grass Revival
and stayed with them until the end of the decade. During this time, his reputation continued to grow and in 1990,
added his name to their Hall of Greats. In 1988, one of his compositions, "Drive" (from the album
New Grass Revival
), was nominated for a Grammy.

Howard Levy
, who played piano, harmonica, and ocarina, among other instruments; bass guitarist
Victor Lemonte Wooten
, and his brother
Roy "Future Man" Wooten
on the drumitar, an electronic drum shaped like a guitar. Though the special wasn't aired until 1992,
the Flecktones
recorded their eponymous debut album in 1990 and followed it up with
Flight of the Cosmic Hippo
In 1993, they released their third album,
UFO Tofu
, which featured music blending different genres ranging from bluegrass to R&B to worldbeat. In 1995, they released
Tales from the Acoustic Planet
Left of Cool
followed in 1998, and
Tales from the Acoustic Planet 2: The Bluegrass Sessions
was released a year later.

reunited the original Flecktones for the spring 2011 release Rocket Science, and toured with the band as well as the trio with Hussain and Meyer, which resulted in the concert album
The Melody of Rhythm: Triple Concerto & Music for Trio
. In 2012,
collaborated with the Marcus Roberts Trio, recording the co-billed Across the Imaginary Divide. Ever ambitious, he composed both an orchestral concerto and a chamber work around his banjo playing, and performed and recorded with the Nashville Symphony Orchestra and the string quartet Brooklyn Rider, respectively. The recording appeared as The Imposter in August of 2013.
's next recording was also a double-billed collaborative effort with his wife, fellow banjo maestro and composer Abigail Washburn. The self-titled recording featured originals, traditional songs, and a thoroughly reimagined medley of two sections of
Béla Bartok
's For Children combined with his Children's Dance. The album was released by Rounder in October of 2014. The late summer of 2015 saw the release of Two on Concord, a duet album between the banjoist and pianist
Chick Corea
. It was compiled from over seven years of their live performances.

Cyclobenzaprine hydrochloride is a white, crystalline tricyclic amine salt. It has a melting point of 217and a pKa of 8.47 at 25It is freely soluble in water and alcohol, sparingly soluble in isopropanol, and insoluble in hydrocarbon solvents. If aqueous solutions are made alkaline, the free base separates. Cyclobenzaprine HCl is designated chemically as 3-(5H-dibenzo[a,d]cyclohepten-5-ylidene)-N,N-dimethyl-1-propanamine, hydrochloride, and has the following structural formula:
C20H21NHCl M.W. 311.9
Cyclobenzaprine hydrochloride tablets, USP are available for oral administration as 5 mg, 7.5 mg and 10 mg tablets. Cyclobenzaprine hydrochloride 5 mg, 7.5 mg and 10 mg tablets contain the following inactive ingredients: colloidal silicon dioxide, croscarmellose sodium, dibasic calcium phosphate, hydroxypropyl cellulose, hypromellose, polyethylene glycol, magnesium stearate, microcrystalline cellulose, and titanium dioxide.
Cyclobenzaprine HCl relieves skeletal muscle spasm of local origin without interfering with muscle function. It is ineffective in muscle spasm due to central nervous system disease.
Cyclobenzaprine reduced or abolished skeletal muscle hyperactivity in several animal models. Animal studies indicate that cyclobenzaprine does not act at the neuromuscular junction or directly on skeletal muscle. Such studies show that cyclobenzaprine acts primarily within the central nervous system at brain stem as opposed to spinal cord levels, although its action on the latter may contribute to its overall skeletal muscle relaxant activity. Evidence suggests that the net effect of cyclobenzaprine is a reduction of tonic somatic motor activity, influencing both gamma (and alpha (motor systems.
Pharmacological studies in animals showed a similarity between the effects of cyclobenzaprine and the structurally related tricyclic antidepressants, including reserpine antagonism, norepinephrine potentiation, potent peripheral and central anticholinergic effects, and sedation. Cyclobenzaprine caused slight to moderate increase in heart rate in animals.
Estimates of mean oral bioavailability of cyclobenzaprine range from 33% to 55%. Cyclobenzaprine exhibits linear pharmacokinetics over the dose range 2.5 mg to 10 mg, and is subject to enterohepatic circulation. It is highly bound to plasma proteins. Drug accumulates when dosed three times a day, reaching steady-state within 3-4 days at plasma concentrations about four-fold higher than after a single dose. At steady state in healthy subjects receiving 10 mg t.i.d. (n=18), peak plasma concentration was 25.9 ng/mL (range, 12.8-46.1 ng/mL), and area under the concentration-time (AUC) curve over an 8-hour dosing interval was 177 ng.hr/mL (range, 80-319 ng.hr/mL).
The plasma concentration of cyclobenzaprine is generally higher in the elderly and in patients with hepatic impairment. (See PRECAUTIONS, Use in the Elderlyand PRECAUTIONS, Impaired Hepatic Function.)
In a pharmacokinetic study in elderly individuals (old), mean (n=10) steady-state cyclobenzaprine AUC values were approximately 1.7 fold (171.0 ng.hr/mL, range 96.1 to 255.3) higher than those seen in a group of eighteen younger adults (101.4 ng.hr/mL, range 36.1 to 182.9) from another study. Elderly male subjects had the highest observed mean increase, approximately 2.4 fold (198.3 ng.hr/mL, range 155.6 to 255.3 versus 83.2 ng.hr/mL, range 41.1 to 142.5 for younger males) while levels in elderly females were increased to a much lesser extent, approximately 1.2 fold (143.8 ng.hr/mL, range 96.1 to 196.3 versus 115.9 ng.hr/mL, range 36.1 to 182.9 for younger females).
In light of these findings, therapy with cyclobenzaprine HCl in the elderly should be initiated with a 5 mg dose and titrated slowly upward.
Hepatic Impairment
In a pharmacokinetic study of sixteen subjects with hepatic impairment (15 mild, 1 moderate per Child-Pugh score), both AUC and Cmax were approximately double the values seen in the healthy control group. Based on the findings, cyclobenzaprine HCl should be used with caution in subjects with mild hepatic impairment starting with the 5 mg dose and titrating slowly upward. Due to the lack of data in subjects with more severe hepatic insufficiency, the use of cyclobenzaprine HCl in subjects with moderate to severe impairment is not recommended.
No significant effect on plasma levels or bioavailability of cyclobenzaprine HCl or aspirin was noted when single or multiple doses of the two drugs were administered concomitantly. Concomitant administration of cyclobenzaprine HCl and naproxen or diflunisal was well tolerated with no reported unexpected adverse effects. However combination therapy of cyclobenzaprine HCl with naproxen was associated with more side effects than therapy with naproxen alone, primarily in the form of drowsiness. No well-controlled studies have been performed to indicate that cyclobenzaprine HCl enhances the clinical effect of aspirin or other analgesics, or whether analgesics enhance the clinical effect of cyclobenzaprine HCl in acute musculoskeletal conditions.
Clinical Studies
Eight double-blind controlled clinical studies were performed in 642 patients comparing cyclobenzaprine HCl 10 mg, diazepam**, and placebo. Muscle spasm, local pain and tenderness, limitation of motion, and restriction in activities of daily living were evaluated. In three of these studies there was a significantly greater improvement with cyclobenzaprine HCl than with diazepam, while in the other studies the improvement following both treatments was comparable.
Although the frequency and severity of adverse reactions observed in patients treated with cyclobenzaprine HCl were comparable to those observed in patients treated with diazepam, dry mouth was observed more frequently in patients treated with cyclobenzaprine HCl and dizziness more frequently in those treated with diazepam. The incidence of drowsiness, the most frequent adverse reaction, was similar with both drugs.
Comparisons of cyclobenzaprine HCl 5 mg and placebo groups in both trials established the statistically significant superiority of the 5 mg dose for all three primary endpoints at day 8 and, in the study comparing 5 and 10 mg, at day 3 or 4 as well. A similar effect was observed with cyclobenzaprine HCl 10 mg (all endpoints). Physician-assessed secondary endpoints also showed that cyclobenzaprine HCl 5 mg was associated with a greater reduction in palpable muscle spasm than placebo.
Analysis of the data from controlled studies shows that cyclobenzaprine HCl produces clinical improvement whether or not sedation occurs.
**VALIUM(diazepam, Roche)
Surveillance Program
Cyclobenzaprine HCl is indicated as an adjunct to rest and physical therapy for relief of muscle spasm associated with acute, painful musculoskeletal conditions.
Improvement is manifested by relief of muscle spasm and its associated signs and symptoms, namely, pain, tenderness, limitation of motion, and restriction in activities of daily living.
Cyclobenzaprine HCl should be used only for short periods (up to two or three weeks) because adequate evidence of effectiveness for more prolonged use is not available and because muscle spasm associated with acute, painful musculoskeletal conditions is generally of short duration and specific therapy for longer periods is seldom warranted.
Cyclobenzaprine HCl has not been found effective in the treatment of spasticity associated with cerebral or spinal cord disease, or in children with cerebral palsy.
Hypersensitivity to any component of this product.
Concomitant use of monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitors or within 14 days after their discontinuation. Hyperpyretic crisis seizures, and deaths have occurred in patients receiving cyclobenzaprine (or structurally similar tricyclic antidepressants) concomitantly with MAO inhibitor drugs.
Acute recovery phase of myocardial infarction, and patients with arrhythmias, heart block or conduction disturbances, or congestive heart failure.
Cyclobenzaprine is closely related to the tricyclic antidepressants, e.g., amitriptyline and imipramine. In short term studies for indications other than muscle spasm associated with acute musculoskeletal conditions, and usually at doses somewhat greater than those recommended for skeletal muscle spasm, some of the more serious central nervous system reactions noted with the tricyclic antidepressants have occurred (see WARNINGS, below, and ADVERSE REACTIONS).
Tricyclic antidepressants have been reported to produce arrhythmias, sinus tachycardia, prolongation of the conduction time leading to myocardial infarction and stroke.
Cyclobenzaprine HCl may enhance the effects of alcohol, barbiturates, and other CNS depressants.
Because of its atropine-like action, cyclobenzaprine HCl should be used with caution in patients with a history of urinary retention, angle-closure glaucoma, increased intraocular pressure, and in patients taking anticholinergic medication.
Impaired Hepatic Function
The plasma concentration of cyclobenzaprine is increased in patients with hepatic impairment (see CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY, Pharmacokinetics, Hepatic Impairment).
These patients are generally more susceptible to drugs with potentially sedating effects, including cyclobenzaprine. Cyclobenzaprine HCl should be used with caution in subjects with mild hepatic impairment starting with a 5 mg dose and titrating slowly upward. Due to the lack of data in subjects with more severe hepatic insufficiency, the use of cyclobenzaprine HCl in subjects with moderate to severe impairment is not recommended.
Cyclobenzaprine HCl, especially when used with alcohol or other CNS depressants, may impair mental and/or physical abilities required for performance of hazardous tasks, such as operating machinery or driving a motor vehicle. In the elderly, the frequency and severity of adverse events associated with the use of cyclobenzaprine, with or without concomitant medications, is increased. In elderly patients, cyclobenzaprine HCl should be initiated with a 5 mg dose and titrated slowly upward.
Cyclobenzaprine HCl may have life-threatening interactions with MAO inhibitors. (See CONTRAINDICATIONS.)
Cyclobenzaprine HCl may enhance the effects of alcohol, barbiturates, and other CNS depressants. Tricyclic antidepressants may block the antihypertensive action of guanethidine and similarly acting compounds.
Tricyclic antidepressants may enhance the seizure risk in patients taking tramadol.
(tramadol HCl tablets, Ortho-McNeil Pharmaceutical)
(tramadol HCl and acetaminophen tablets, Ortho-McNeil Pharmaceutical)
Cyclobenzaprine did not affect the onset, incidence or distribution of neoplasia in an 81-week study in the mouse or in a 105-week study in the rat.
At oral doses of up to 10 times the human dose, cyclobenzaprine did not adversely affect the reproductive performance or fertility of male or female rats. Cyclobenzaprine did not demonstrate mutagenic activity in the male mouse at dose levels of up to 20 times the human dose.
Pregnancy Category B
Reproduction studies have been performed in rats, mice and rabbits at doses up to 20 times the human dose, and have revealed no evidence of impaired fertility or harm to the fetus due to cyclobenzaprine HCl. There are, however, no adequate and well-controlled studies in pregnant women. Because animal reproduction studies are not always predictive of human response, this drug should be used during pregnancy only if clearly needed.
It is not known whether this drug is excreted in human milk. Because cyclobenzaprine is closely related to the tricyclic antidepressants, some of which are known to be excreted in human milk, caution should be exercised when cyclobenzaprine HCl is administered to a nursing woman.
Safety and effectiveness of cyclobenzaprine HCl in pediatric patients below 15 years of age have not been established.
The plasma concentration of cyclobenzaprine is increased in the elderly (see CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY, Pharmacokinetics, Elderly). The elderly may also be more at risk for CNS adverse events such as hallucinations and confusion, cardiac events resulting in falls or other sequelae, drug-drug and drug-disease interactions. For these reasons, in the elderly, cyclobenzaprine should be used only if clearly needed. In such patients cyclobenzaprine HCl should be initiated with a 5 mg dose and titrated slowly upward.
Incidence of most common adverse reactions in the 2 double-blindplacebo-controlled 5 mg studies (incidence of > 3% on cyclobenzaprine HCl 5 mg):

The following list of adverse reactions is based on the experience in 473 patients treated with cyclobenzaprine HCl 10 mg in additional controlled clinical studies, 7607 patients in the post-marketing surveillance program, and reports received since the drug was marketed. The overall incidence of adverse reactions among patients in the surveillance program was less than the incidence in the controlled clinical studies.
The adverse reactions reported most frequently with cyclobenzaprine HCl were drowsiness, dry mouth and dizziness. The incidence of these common adverse reactions was lower in the surveillance program than in the controlled clinical studies:

Adverse reactions which were reported in 1% to 3% of the patients were: fatigue/tiredness, asthenia, nausea, constipation, dyspepsia, unpleasant taste, blurred vision, headache, nervousness, and confusion.
The following adverse reactions have been reported in post-marketing experience or with an incidence of less than 1% of patients in clinical trials with the 10 mg tablet:
Musculoskeletal: Local weakness.
Skin: Sweating.
Urogenital: Urinary frequency and/or retention.
Cyclobenzaprine HCl Tablets 10 mg data are from one clinical trial. Cyclobenzaprine HCl Tablets 5 mg and placebo data are from two studies.
Causal Relationship Unknown
Other reactions, reported rarely for cyclobenzaprine HCl under circumstances where a causal relationship could not be established or reported for other tricyclic drugs, are listed to serve as alerting information to physicians:
Endocrine: Inappropriate ADH syndrome.
Musculoskeletal: Myalgia.
Respiratory: Dyspnea.
Pharmacologic similarities among the tricyclic drugs require that certain withdrawal symptoms be considered when cyclobenzaprine HCl is administered, even though they have not been reported to occur with this drug. Abrupt cessation of treatment after prolonged administration rarely may produce nausea, headache, and malaise. These are not indicative of addiction.
The most common effects associated with cyclobenzaprine overdose are drowsiness and tachycardia. Less frequent manifestations include tremor, agitation, coma, ataxia, hypertension, slurred speech, confusion, dizziness, nausea, vomiting, and hallucinations. Rare but potentially critical manifestations of overdose are cardiac arrest, chest pain, cardiac dysrhythmias, severe hypotension, seizures, and neuroleptic malignant syndrome. Changes in the electrocardiogram, particularly in QRS axis or width, are clinically significant indicators of cyclobenzaprine toxicity.
Other potential effects of overdosage include any of the symptoms listed under ADVERSE REACTIONS.
As management of overdose is complex and changing, it is recommended that the physician contact a poison control center for current information on treatment.
In order to protect against the rare but potentially critical manifestations described above, obtain an ECG and immediately initiate cardiac monitoring. Protect the patient's airway, establish an intravenous line and initiate gastric decontamination. Observation with cardiac monitoring and observation for signs of CNS or respiratory depression, hypotension, cardiac dysrhythmias and/or conduction blocks, and seizures is necessary. If signs of toxicity occur at any time during this period, extended monitoring is required. Monitoring of plasma drug levels should not guide management of the patient. Dialysis is probably of no value because of low plasma concentrations of the drug.
Gastrointestinal Decontamination
All patients suspected of an overdose with cyclobenzaprine HCl should receive gastrointestinal decontamination. This should include large volume gastric lavage followed by activated charcoal. If consciousness is impaired, the airway should be secured prior to lavage and emesis is contraindicated.
A maximal limb-lead QRS duration ofseconds may be the best indication of the severity of the overdose. Serum alkalinization, to a pH of 7.45 to 7.55, using intravenous sodium bicarbonate and hyperventilation (as needed), should be instituted for patients with dysrhythmias and/or QRS widening. A pH > 7.60 or a pCO2< 20 mmHg is undesirable. Dysrhythmias unresponsive to sodium bicarbonate therapy/hyperventilation may respond to lidocaine, bretylium or phenytoin. Type 1A and 1C antiarrhythmics are generally contraindicated (e.g., quinidine, disopyramide, and procainamide).
In patients with CNS depression, early intubation is advised because of the potential for abrupt deterioration. Seizures should be controlled with benzodiazepines or, if these are ineffective, other anticonvulsants (e.g. phenobarbital, phenytoin). Physostigmine is not recommended except to treat life-threatening symptoms that have been unresponsive to other therapies, and then only in close consultation with a poison control center.
Psychiatric Follow-Up
Since overdosage is often deliberate, patients may attempt suicide by other means during the recovery phase. Psychiatric referral may be appropriate.
Pediatric Management
The principles of management of child and adult overdosages are similar. It is strongly recommended that the physician contact the local poison control center for specific pediatric treatment.
For most patients, the recommended dose of cyclobenzaprine HCl is 5 mg three times a day. Based on individual patient response, the dose may be increased to either 7.5 mg or 10 mg three times a day. Use of cyclobenzaprine HCl for periods longer than two or three weeks is not recommended. (See INDICATIONS AND USAGE.)
Less frequent dosing should be considered for hepatically impaired or elderly patients (see PRECAUTIONS, Impaired Hepatic Function, and Use in the Elderly).

The Nutter administration plans to seek $3 million from Philadelphia City Council for a "bike share" program that would put the first 650 bicycles on the street by early 2014, the deputy mayor for transportation, Rina Cutler, said Friday.
A second phase would add 550 bikes in 2015, city officials said.
The program envisions 120 stations where commuters, tourists, or shoppers could help themselves to a bike that they would then leave at a station near their destination.
To take a bike, a rider would need to buy a daily, monthly, or annual membership from a vending machine at a bike station. Then the first half-hour on the bike would be free, with costs of about $5 per half-hour after that, based on the experience of other cities with bike-share programs.

How to easily hide unwanted channel icons on Apple TV after 6.1 update
by Roshan on March 11, 2014
Much has been said about the cluttering on the Apple TV home screen. And that is truly evident from the hits we received on our post How to arrange and hide channels on Apple TV, which we published after the feature was first introduced in the 5.1 update. Yes, the ability to hide and rearrange icons has been present on your Apple TV for a while, but yesterday Apple rolled out a new 6.1 update to Apple TV devices, which makes it much easier to hide unwanted channels right from the home screen.
Apple TV software update 6.1 is out
by tomek on March 11, 2014
Along with the release of the long-awaited iOS 7.1, Apple has yesterday rolled out a new firmware for Apple TV 2 and 3: Apple TV software update 6.1 brings some improvements to AirPlay and Remote app functionality and, most importantly, makes hiding unwanted channels from the main menu much easier.
How to: arrange and hide icons on Apple TV
by Dan on October 11, 2013
With all the new apps/channels released for Apple TV recently, the interface can become quite cluttered. Luckily, as of the Apple TV 5.1 software update, you can adjust the display of icons and arrangement on the Apple TV's main menu to suit your preference and hide those icons you don't use.
iOS 6 beta 2 lets you reorganize icons on Apple TV
by tomek on June 27, 2012
One of the new features in iOS 6 beta 2 for Apple TV is the ability to reorder the icons on the main menu, as spotted by MacMagazine.com.br (via MacRumors):
The feature is accessed by holding down the center Select button on the remote for several seconds, after which the selected icon begins to wiggle as is seen on other iOS devices when in reorder/delete mode. The wiggling icon can then be moved by using the directional buttons on the remote, with other icons automatically adjusting to make room for the icon being moved.

Josh Howard happy to 'stick it' to the Mavericks, says he was unfairly blamed
Josh Howard played his first game with the Washington Wizards since being traded by the Mavericks, and he smiled as he made his postgame comments.
"It meant a lot, coming to a new organization and show them that I want to be here, plus stick it to the Mavs," Howard said after the Wizards beat the Timberwolves 108-99 on Wednesday night.. "I'm happy now, you don't have to worry about me saying nothing else about them now."
Howard did not start but entered the game early in the first quarter. He scored 14 points in 26 minutes.
In an interview with washingtonpost.com, Howard responded to Mark Cuban and complained about being blamed for the Mavericks' problems.
Some highlights:
On Mavericks owner Mark Cuban saying he thought Howard would be "re-energized" by a change of scenery: "Whatever. It's a new start. I'm going to give it my all. As far as being reenergized, that's the question you have to ask him because I was energized when I was down there."
On being blamed for the Mavs' failures: I became "the one that they thought was the problem. The one thing that I can say is unfair, is the guy that came back from injury, came back early, still came out and gave you positive minutes and you trade him. It's that simple. If anything, you can say that's hard feelings, but other than that, it's a business."
On his time with the Mavericks, which included an NBA Finals trip: "I did a lot. I contributed to that team, but I know I helped them get to that. Even with the negative stuff, it showed me people's true colors. If I could take it all back I wouldn't. The bad things I spoke from the heart and I said it at the time and I apologized for a lot of that stuff. I deeply regret it, but those things are in the past. You can change nothing. You just have to keep moving forward and bettering yourself."
On trying to prove to the Wizards to pick up his $11.8 million option for next season: "I know I ain't going to go out there and chuck up shots to get them to sign me. I want to work for it and make them see that I want that option."
On the first thing the Wizards told him: "We wanted you. They said other teams tried to get me, but Washington got me and I'm happy. Players, sometimes, you feel like a piece of meat, they beat you up, chew you and spit you out, but it all revolves back to the business part. But that's what you get yourself into when you enter into the draft, pretty much. You just got to be ready up here. I have no problem being here. I love my new city, my new team."
