first off welcome to the site bro
secondly, im DaTPRiNCE and i approve this message STAT 4 MVP
Hey everyone Im a new poster here.. I've been a Knick fan since the 90s when I was a lil kid.. I was born in '86.. I remember game 7 of the 94 Finals.. Ewing , LJ, Oakley, Starks, Mason, all them guys.. The improbable run in '99 with Spree, Camby, Houston and those guys.. When Ewing got hurt before facing the Spurs I was proud of our team getting that one big win in that series..
After that year it was tough being a Knicks fan.. All the bad contracts, the Losing, Lenny Wilkins, Isiah , Larry brown, The scandals. A selfish point Guard and I got excited a few seasons like '04 when we got swept by the Nets in the first round .. And Isiahs first year as Head Coach when it looked like we may make the playoffs but we fell apart.. I kind of loved the Knicks from a distance at this time.. Long gone was the excitement of the Knicks and therefore the NBA for me.
Now Fast Forward to THIS year. Amar'e is better than I could've ever hoped for!! Felton I didnt know much about this year because Like I said I havent been following Hoops the way I used to because the team I love has been terrible for so long.. But the whoel team has HEART!! and the Biggest reason is because of Amar'e Stoudemire.. The leadership, the attitude, the work ethic, the toughness.. STAT is the whole package.. So far this year I think he is the league MVP .. PERIOD.. Aot of people claimed much of Stats success was because of Steve Nash.. but I think STAT has actually elevated his game year.. He is playing solid defense.. No doubt about it.. his rebounding is a bit up.. And lately he's been scoring 30 a game.. if the Knicks win 50 games this year I think STAT has a legit chance for an MVP.. I think if that does happen he WILL be the MVP.. and he Absolutely deserves it!! He has made the Knicks a much better team.. Im actually excited for Knicks games again.. I was on Vacation in Florida for Thanksgiving and i was watching streams online.. The whole Knicks fanbase is rejuvenated.. Now they cant say we havent beat anyone.. NO was 8-1 at home before this game and we also beat CHicago on the road!.. WE'RE PLAYING SOME SERIOUS DEFENSE!! I want Amare to give MR. Kevin Love some payback wen we see MINN in a couple days.. we gonna have some violins playing BABY!!
STAT For MVP.. He deserves it if the season continues likE this!!!!!!!!!
first off welcome to the site bro
secondly, im DaTPRiNCE and i approve this message STAT 4 MVP
DaTPRiNCE...That EGYPTiAN Fella, #MeloMafia
Welcome to the board.
STAT for MVP? I THINK SO!
Orange and blue, yesterday, today, and tomorrow...
And they called him a consolation prize this summer. Thank god we got STAT.
"We've suffered enough"...Stephen A. Smith
STAT 4 MVP When I'm in the Garden i will be screaming it !
Knicks 2012
If STAT isn't turning heads for MVP consideration yet, then...well...
he is killing it. gotta love our boy STAT
He has been playing at an MVP level, but the only way he can get real consideration for the award is if the Knicks become an elite team and win 55+. Historically the award has only gone to players who play on teams that finish with one of the best records.
55+? i think it's a stretch. I can definitely see STAT winning league MVP if the Knicks can win around 50 games and taking momentum into the playoffs.
The consolation prize has turned things around, and is proving all the nay-sayers wrong.
There were questions coming into the season:
Can STAT lead a team?
Can STAT play at a high level without former MVP Steve Nash?
Can STAT stay healthy?
Can the Knicks win without 2 top tier FA's from this class?
Can The Knicks drop their losing culture and move into the winner category?
Can STAT step up in the 4th quarter and close out games?
Can STAT instill a presence of focus, determination and professionalism on and off the court?
So far, so good. As long as STAT stays healthy and the team continues to play with a purpose, there is no reason we can't get to 50+ wins. If we get there I think STAT win's MVP.
Depends on how it goes in the playoffs i think. If he bring's 'em to the eastern conference finals, i think he'll have a chance.
BUT i do think were going to win 45+ games and if STAT continues this level he should win the MVP
DaTPRiNCE...That EGYPTiAN Fella, #MeloMafia
I don't care what the NBA or voters have to say. STAT IS MY MVP and that means a lot to me as a Knickfan.
Amare is playing at an MVP level, but whether he wins or not will depend on how many wins the Knicks get.
He is definitely in the running for first team All NBA this year.

See article for reference from NextGov, "SAIC Hit With $4.9B Lawsuit Over TRICARE Data Theft," by Bob Brewin.
We can expect to see many more lawsuits over breaches because most US health systems have abysmal data security and by design allow thousands of employees to access the sensitive health information of millions of patients. This immense scale of damage was simply impossible with paper systems.
Ironclad security is very difficult technically (think WikiLeaks) because health systems were architected to enable 'open access' by hundreds or thousands of employees to millions of sensitive health records.
Today, the only 'barrier' to health data access in the US are 'pop-up' screens that ask, "Do you have a right to access this patient's information?' This is hardly effective. Yes, of course, after-the-fact audit trails of access can be used to identify those who should not have seen a record. It is a very weak kind of data protection; in fact, today patients identify the majority of data breaches, not health IT systems.
When will the US get serious about building privacy-enhancing architectures where ONLY clinical staff or others who are directly involved in a patient's care can access the patient's data with informed consent. Systems that prevent access by MOST employees could prevent the vast majorities of data breaches and data thefts.
Using and building systems designed for privacy would be a FAR better use of the stimulus billions than how they are currently being spent: to buy and promote the use of HIT systems that cannot possibly protect health data from misuse and theft, and in fact is designed to spread health information to many unseen and unknown secondary corporate and government users.

Former DC Mayor Sharon Pratt Kelly Kicks Off BSC's "Black History Month" Activities (w/photo)
Sharon Pratt Kelly Sharon Pratt Kelly, the first African American female mayor of a major American city, will speak at Bluefield State College, opening a busy calendar of "Black History Month" activities at the College. Her presentation, which is open to the public free of charge, begins at 7 p.m., February 2, in the Basic Science Auditorium on the BSC campus. Kelly defied great odds on November 6, 1990 to become the first female leader of the nation's capital, and the first African-American woman to serve as mayor of a major urban city. She served as mayor of the District of Columbia from 1991-1994. Political observers credited her mayoral victory to her demonstrated commitment of more than 20 years of community involvement and activism in local and national politics. Proclaiming "YES WE WILL," Kelly promised District residents an "honest deal." She vowed to restore the city to greatness by improving the quality of life for all people. In less than four years, she moved her city dramatically close to this ideal. Kelly set the city on a sound financial path--inaugurating massive downsizing, reorganizing, automation, and training. During her term as mayor, every category of crime in the nation's capital declined. She developed public-private partnerships to effect many of her reforms. Area businesses were encouraged to use their ingenuity to help the District develop programs to serve and save the city's young, old, middle, and deprived. These partnerships helped foster more jobs and encouraged international trade ventures. The Washington Post noted, "Sharon Pratt Kelly cajoled her city to embrace reform by becoming herself the unwavering voice for change--for she believes government must be that agent of change if we, as a nation, are to be ready for the next century." She is an honors graduate of Howard University and earned a Juris doctorate from that university's law school. She is a former vice-chairman of the D.C. Law Revision Commission, and a former vice president of Potomac Electric Power Company. She was elected as Treasurer of the Democratic National Committee and served in that capacity from 1985-1989. Among the national awards she has received are the following: The NAACP Award, the Thurgood Marshall Award of Excellence' and the Mary McLeod Bethune-W. E. B. DuBois Award, presented by the Congressional Black Caucus. Other BSC Black History Month activities include the following: Historian/dramatist Norman Jordan will present a chautauqua performance of "Carter G. Woodson, the father of Black History," February 11 at 7 p.m. in the Basic Science Auditorium. A second chautauqua presentation, "Anne Spencer," will presented by Ms. Bruscilla Jordan February 25 at 7 p.m. in the Basic Science Auditorium. Karl Gipson, an internationally-recognized musician and theatrical performer, will deliver "A Musical Tribute to Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.," on February 23 at 7 p.m. in the Basic Science Auditorium. The Bluefield Community Choir will present its annual Black History Month concert in the BSC Student Union, February 21 at 6 p.m, and the "Voices of the Revolution" display will be available for viewing in the Student Union during the week of February 16-20. The public is invited to all of these events, free of charge.

"By the grace of God, they survived," Smith said. "Normally, there is only one driver sent on a delivery but this morning, they had two."
Jared Adamson, 34, and Ronald Higgins, 35, both of Victoria, and Zachary Edwards, 30, of Refugio suffered no serious injuries.
The two Victoria men, employees of Performance Food Service, were traveling north on Farm-to-Market 2678 in a long curve just south of the Fennessey Ranch. Adamson, driver of the food service truck, met Edwards, driver of the Ford Expedition, traveling south in the northbound lane without any headlights on, according to the trooper.
The head-on collision caused the food service truck to flip and burst into flames, with the driver pinned in the vehicle and unable to release his seat belt.
"The passenger was able to lift him up enough so he could undo his seat belt," Smith said.
Edwards was taken to Refugio Memorial Hospital before being arrested for driving while intoxicated.
The roadway was closed to all traffic until just before noon when the road was opened to one lane.
The fully loaded trailer was allowed to burn to lighten the load before being cut up and hauled away.
Allan's Wrecker Service out of Victoria was on the scene from 4 a.m. unto 10 p.m. removing the debris.

Simply majestic
In wrestling, Liberty hosted the Section 9 Division II championships that saw Tri-Valley senior Kevin Palko (152) capture the school's first-ever title. Liberty senior Andy Martinez (182) and Eldred's Jesse Corcoran (220) were victorious as well. Nick Piatek's glorious album of photos offers a visual anthem to this indoor manifestation of winter marvels. Speaking of marvelous winter showings, in girls basketball, Tri-Valley (10-5, 4-3 OCIAA) rebounded from back-to-back Division V losses to Chester and Tuxedo with an inspiring 74-46 win over Fallsburg that completed a season sweep of the talented Lady Comets and continued the Lady Bears' year-to-year dominance of their neighboring rival. Fallsburg has yet to beat Tri-Valley during the reign of Comets' coach Daniel Redmond. This game was far closer than the final score appeared and actually had Fallsburg within one point of their adversaries midway in the third quarter before the Lady Bears would use a 27-8 fourth quarter outburst to run away from the visitors, who had hoped to finally top the team they'd love most to beat. Junior Katlynn Greffrath led T-V with 24 points that include a quintet of treys. Junior Sabrena Smith posted her best game of the year at both ends of the floor. She and senior Nicole Bradley each contributed 14 points to the cause. Fallsburg 9-6 (1-6 OCIAA) was led by senior standout Nyasia Blakney, who poured in a game-high 26 points.
The latest winter storm caused the postponement of the Sullivan County BCANY Coaches vs. Cancer tournament, which will now be held on February 16 in a day-long cavalcade of boys and girls high school basketball. The college games will be held on February 17. For ongoing winter stories as well as archives of seasons past, visit www.sportsinsightsny.com. Photos can be found at www.sportsinsights.smugmug.com.

Dr. Larry Ferguson remembers where he started.
His pastor asked him one Sunday morning on the steps of East Side Baptist Church what he wanted to be when he grew up. Then only 12 years old, Dr. Ferguson said he wanted to be a doctor.
"Little Ferguson," his pastor told him, "When you get to be a doctor, I want you to promise me one thing: Don't forget the Lord."
Ferguson never forgot those words, nor the people and places behind him. This year MUSC's Alumni Association presented him with the Distinguished Alumnus Service Award for his work within both his profession and his community.
Dr. Larry Ferguson
College of Dental Medicine Dean John J. Sanders calls Dr. Ferguson as "a man in perpetual motion.
"He consistently prioritizes the needs of others over his own," Sanders said. "He is an outstanding mentor and role model. I am very fortunate to count him as a great friend."
From his East Side upbringing, Ferguson went to The Citadel on a full academic scholarship and graduated with a chemistry degree in 1973. He went to work at General Asbestos and Rubber Corp. in North Charleston and married his high school sweetheart, Mabel, a few months later.
Ferguson's life changed course after a conversation that began as a meeting about life insurance.
The insurance agent, a friend of Ferguson's, asked if Ferguson liked his job. After hearing Ferguson's lukewarm answer, the agent said that he worked with dentists during his time in the Air Force, and that many of those dentists shared Ferguson's chemistry background.
"I think you'd make a good dentist," he told Ferguson.
So, on that suggestion, Ferguson went to the library to read more about dentistry. Then he enrolled in biology classes at The Citadel. He applied to dental school in 1975 and started classes the next year.
Dr. Ferguson graduated from MUSC's College of Dental Medicine in 1979 and went on to lead professional organizations at the state and national levels. He became the first black president of the S.C. Dental Association in 2006.
Dr. Ferguson began contributing to his alma mater almost immediately after graduation. He donated money and worked as a clinical instructor at the MUSC College of Dental Medicine, even while launching his first practice with a classmate.
"The least I can do is give back," Dr. Ferguson said from his current practice in West Ashley. "The MUSC College of Dental Medicine is a true blessing to the state of South Carolina. As a graduate, I want to do all I can do to help keep these doors open."
He and his wife, Mabel, wanted to open some new doors on the East Side, too. They joined with a nonprofit ministry to establish the Sisters of Charity free dental clinic on East Bay Street in 2004, where the Fergusons could see their old high school from the third-floor office window.
"It resonated in my heart. This is where I grew up," Dr. Ferguson said. "Here I am in a position now to help people who are not as fortunate as I have been."
The nonprofit ministry defaulted on its mortgage in 2008, but Dr. Ferguson's colleague, local orthodontist Dr. Lee Hershon, reopened the building last year as the Charleston Dental Clinic. Dr. Ferguson still volunteers there.
"Larry really put the seeds in the ground first," Hershon said. "He's been a real leader, not only in dentistry, but in the black community."
Hershon taught Dr. Ferguson in dental school and became friends with him as the two men transitioned into private practice. He remembered Dr. Ferguson as a focused student driven by compassion.
"He's a very serious Christian, and he understands that God expects us to help the less fortunate," Hershon said. "He's always cared about people, no matter what color, just doing service for people."

A Little Bit of Hope is a Good Thing
1 Comment
Nice to have you back.
Nice also, to have a little bit of reason to have faith in the ballclub again.
It's one thing when you lose because you have the weaker team (my brother is a huge Jays fan and given that they have essentially been playing with 75% of their AAA lineup, he's not that alarmed by their current win/loss situation), but we have a good group. That's definitely part of what has been so frustrating about this season.

This female celebrity chef/talk show host has gone to Playboy and asked to appear in an issue. Topless. It is not the first time she has tried to shake things up. I'm still getting over the first time though.
Rachael Ray
I take it they wouldn't have her?ReplyCancel
I don't believe this. I thought this would be Sandra Lee.ReplyCancel
she looks like a soccer mom. I guess the old fogies that still buy playboy would be into that?ReplyCancel
Wrong. Wrong. Wrong. Wrong. Wrong. Trainwreck wrongReplyCancel
@Seven- Or bending over in front of her oven. This is true you can't unsee those pics. I didn't even need to click your link!ReplyCancel
Ok, WTF. Why are @Seven's comments always disappearing?
Enterns don't like you @Seven of Eleven!ReplyCancel
No kidding!ReplyCancel
@Lotta it cant ever be Sandra Lee because she is the first lady of New York State now and it would be a scandal bigger than anything.ReplyCancel
@Lotta, I guess I'm not racist enough or I haven't fulfilled the quota on dropping f-bombs. 🙁 I'll go to my corner.ReplyCancel
@sandy, I was being sarcastic because my state doesn't need anymore sex scandals.ReplyCancel
@Seven, if anyone deserves the corner, it's the Entern! They no like links? I'm baffled.ReplyCancel
@Lotta, IKR? It's not like Rachael was naked!ReplyCancel
I'd totally enjoy seeing Rachael Ray's snoobs!ReplyCancel
Ewe not with those raisinsReplyCancel
I wouldn't wanna see any of her even if SHE paid ME to take a peek.ReplyCancel
Rachael Ray always gave me a "12pk, tequila and pizza" type of party vibe. Would definitely bone her. Would not buy a copy of P-boy to see her tits though. If she showed the Beef Curtains in SWANK, I'd head to a jack shack and pick it up.ReplyCancel
I saw pictures of a spread she did for some men's magazine once, although I'm not sure it was "Playboy". They were really bad. I remember in one picture she was wearing a skimpy outfit and holding a pie. Her pose was very stiff and she had a big cheesy smile. You could tell she had no idea what she was doing.ReplyCancel
Oh, whoa!! Wow! I like Rachel Ray, but she is NOT playboy material.ReplyCancel
Rachael Ray? Maybe that's a fantasy she and her husband have. I don't think she's got that much up top though. My first thought was Giada given her reputation but I guess her husband has to draw the line somewhere.
Sondra Lee is the First Lady/Girlfriend of the State of New York and her long time boyfriend Andrew Cuomo wants to be President. No centerfolds for her.ReplyCancel
I bet they declined, fearful that she wouldn't shut up for two minutes. Her voice drives me craaaaazy …
This lady is too short and dumpy to be in Playboy.
Maybe she did it to please her scumbag of a husband, who has quite the reputation …ReplyCancel

Elusive As The Win
Well, what can I say? I mean, really. We lost. Again. We needed that game so badly, and we lost. It's the bullpen's fault, as usual.
Kevin Correia started, but only went 3.1 innings, allowing five runs on eight hits. Not good. Correia's pitch count went way up way early, but I think Buddy was fighting for this game. OK, Kevin can't pitch tonight, so he's coming out. Bring in the next guy, see what he can do.
In the bottom of the third, the Padres got three runs to make the score 5-3 Rockies. We got the runs on a error, and single by Scott Hairston, and a groundout.
Edward Mujica threw a solid inning, striking out three.
In the bottom of the fifth, we took our only lead of the game on Scott Hairston's three run homer. It seemed like that was the momentum shifter to the Padres side, but unfortunately, it was not meant to be.
In the top of the seventh, Edwin Moreno got the bases loaded with one out. Cla Meredith came in, and promptly allowed a grand slam to Chris Iannetta. ARGH!!!!
And…that was essentially it. We died, going down 1-2-3 in the next three innings excepting Scott Hairston's double in the eighth. Luke Gregerson and Arturo Lopez had scoreless innings.
We're not hitting right now. Last night we got four hits. This makes me want to cry! Scott Hairston got three of them. Luis Rodriguez had the other one. We're not hitting, we not pitching, it's a miracle that we got six runs last night!!
Well, we needed that game. Now, the fans are giving up, and the players have got to be discouraged. We've lost our last six games. We're 7.5 games behind.
We're pathetic. I just don't know what to do with this team.
Maybe some more restictions are in order…
9) No more luxury lockers.
10) 25% reduction in wages. The players aren't doing anything, so why should the Padres be paying them?
11) None of the players can leave the stadium until we win, which means they will need to camp out.
12) Hey, while they're camping out on the field, they can have a campfire and burn the sand uniforms!
(not while they are still wearing them, of course)
And of course, there will be no s'mores allowed. Just Vegemite.
(thanks to Ash for restriction ideas!)
I wanted to give a quick shoutout to my mom, whose birthday is today. Happy birthday Mom! Thanks so much for everything🙂
Tonight, we had better win…or else the Padres may find themselves without any showers at all! Josh Geer will go for the win against Aaron Cook. Oh great. Jen, cheer for my Padres. Cheer for them hard!!
Keeping the faith…

We all know it would never happen…but wouldn't it be something if players got their pay docked for bad performance? Don't they want to re-work their deals if they have a big year?Russhttp://wight4256.mlblogs.com
Happy Birthday to your mom. I think a lot of teams are suffering from bullpen disorder right now. Very maddening!
Happy Birthday to you mom Kaybee!!! I love the vegemite idea and docking pay? Sounds good to me!
Tell your mom I said happy birthday🙂 We REALLY need a win tonight! Keep coming up with the restrictions. I'll come up with one as well. LOL
Happy b-day to your mom! Hope your guys start winning a little bit. Maybe they should have their texting/tweeting priveleges taken away!
Rants, Raves, and Random Thoughts
A birthday on Cinco De Mayo! Crazyness, but also cool. Mucho margaritas for mom : ) I liked the restrictions but I'm sure the players hope you never own the team ; )
I like these restrictions. Except for the no candy rule. That is just mean and cruel.
Although a very funny post, it sucks that the Padres are losing the way they are.
…but the Rangers are winning!

The RIAA's Dream Turns to Nightmare -- Inside The Pirate Bay's Torrent Purge
Jason Mick

(Source: The Pirate Bay via TorrentFreak)
No more torrents will help more content to be shared, render "copyright watchdogs" more toothless
The Pirate Bay has long been synonymous with one thing -- torrents. The world's largest torrent site has had more than its fair share of legal headaches [
] over the years for promoting the ubiquitous file-sharing mechanism. Consequentially on Feb. 29 in will be taking what on the surface appears to be a mind-blowing move -- deleting all torrents hosted
on the site, which are being actively shared by more than 10 individuals.
But in reality this move is not as mind-blowing and drastic a departure from the site's operational model as some are thinking/hoping/fearing.
The site will continue to host the content, where possible, via magnet links. All new content will be hosted via magnetic links.
The new approach
is a
"step forward in technology", according to the site's admins. And it's the worst nightmare of the
Recording Industry Association of America
Motion Picture Association of America
The Pirate Bay can now be compressed to a 90 MB torrent-free site, for easy hosting. Under the new scheme scores of new users will be able to host free proxy servers for The Pirate Bay, helping it escape
takedown attempts
, local firewalls, or
ISP restrictions
At the same time The Pirate Bay washes its hands of any of the actual process of file-sharing. It is simply hosting magnet links --
to torrents which share the same unique hash value. In that regard, thousands, if not millions of users will be privately hosting the scores of torrents that make up
The Pirate Bay
users worldwide know and love.
And it will be far harder for lawyers and regulators to pin wrongdoing on
The Pirate Bay
-- assuming that the members of the international judicial committee understand how the technology works and
are willing to give a fair trial
, at least. In short, magnet links are the future of filesharing and
The Pirate Bay
's decision to force their adoption is a sound one in terms of its future.
Magnet links represent the supreme ultimatum to media organizations (many of which
themselves engage in active for-profit piracy
steals hundreds of millions of dollars
from independent artists annually):
Develop fair, reasonably priced, accessible content distribution and create content that users
think is actually worth paying for
, or you can and will be pirated.
In essence it will be impossible for the RIAA or MPAA to put millions of Americans in prison or fine them. So ultimately, magnet links and other new technologies may force the RIAA, MPAA, and government to abandon traditional enforcement of file-sharing. Thus the groups' long-standing dream of taking down
The Pirate Bay
's torrents has just become their worst nightmare.
It should be interesting how the self-proclaimed "anti-piracy" advocates by day, for-profit
pirates by night
globally react to this new technological marvel.

Manchin: 'Stop the Lies'
On the Senate floor last week, I quoted John Adams' famous remark that "facts are stubborn things." It was my way of warning the groups who were spreading misinformation about my criminal and mental background check legislation that facts, not lies, ultimately prevail.
Unfortunately, my commonsense bill had a setback this week. The legislation got bipartisan support from a majority of Senators, but it fell short of the 60 votes it needed to pass in the Senate. The vote left a lot of people who supported our bill disappointed.
I'm disappointed, but I'm also determined – because everybody who knows me knows that, like the facts John Adams spoke about, I'm pretty doggone stubborn myself, especially when the facts are on my side.
I am determined to do all I can to protect American citizens, especially our children, from the kind of senseless violence we have seen committed by criminals and the violently mentally insane.
I will not back down until we've won this fight – not just to protect the public's safety, but also to protect the Second Amendment, which is what my bill also does.
I'm sick and tired of people who don't know the first thing about guns, the role they have played in American history or their part in our culture today, looking at me and other law-abiding gun owners as if we're doing something wrong because we like guns and hunting and marksmanship.
Most gun owners in West Virginia and all across this country are responsible and law-abiding. They use their guns for hunting, shooting and self-defense. The Second Amendment guarantees them the right to do so, and I will never do anything to infringe on that fundamental right.
In fact, the criminal and mental background check legislation I introduced in the Senate with Republican Senator Pat Toomey of Pennsylvania not only protects the Second Amendment rights of law-abiding Americans – it actually strengthens them.
It does so by applying the existing rules for criminal and mental background checks at federally licensed gun stores to gun shows and Internet sales to ultimately stop criminals and the dangerously mentally ill from getting guns.
It is just common sense to have one rule for everybody.
Opponents said our legislation would undermine the Second Amendment by leading to a national registry of gun owners and making it a crime for relatives, friends or neighbors to sell, give or loan guns to each other.
Those claims are simply not true.
It's already against the law to create a national registry of gun owners. But the Manchin-Toomey bill would take this protection of the Second Amendment a giant step forward – it reaffirms the ban on the federal government from creating a registry and, for the first time, would make it a felony to do so, punishable by up to 15 years in prison.
Our bill also preserves important background check exemptions in our current law, like temporary transfers. That way, for example, you could loan your hunting rifle to your buddy without any new restrictions or requirements.
Our bill also makes it clear that transfers between family, friends and neighbors will not require background checks. That's the law now, and there's no reason to change it.
You can sell or loan a gun to your brother, your neighbor, your co-worker without a background check. You can give your grandchild a gun without a background check. You can post a gun for sale on the bulletin board at your church or your job without a background check.
Our legislation also strengthens the Second Amendment by creating a fair appeals process for veterans who may have been wrongly or prematurely categorized as unfit to own or purchase firearms. What an irony – and what a tragedy – it would be for veterans to lose some of the rights they fought so hard to protect.
Our bill expands gun rights in other ways that law-abiding gun owners, like myself, have sought for years.
It will allow interstate handgun sales from licensed dealers. Outdated current law only allows interstate sales of rifles and shotguns. Updating the law will bring more sales into the background check system.
It will allow active military to buy firearms in their home states and the state in which they are stationed. Current law restricts purchases to their duty station.
It will allow dealer-to-dealer sales at gun shows taking place in a state in which they are not a resident. Currently those sales are only permitted for dealers from the same state in which the gun show is held.
And it will authorize the use of a state concealed carry permit that has been issued within the last five years in lieu of a background check when purchasing a firearm from a dealer.
From the time we introduced our legislation, I have said this about it:
If you are a law-abiding gun owner, you should like our bill.
If you are a believer in the Second Amendment right of Americans to keep and bear arms, you should like our bill.
If you want to treat veterans with the dignity and respect they deserve, you should like our bill.
If you are looking for ways to keep our citizens safe from mass violence, especially our precious children, you should like our bill.
But if you are a criminal, a drug dealer, a terrorist, or if a court has declared that you are a threat to yourself or others, you probably won't like my bill because I'm making it harder for dangerous people to get guns.
And those are the cold, hard, stubborn facts.

5 Reasons to Panic About Holiday Travel ... Now
The Thanksgiving holiday is fast approaching and early bird deals on airfares are drying up. According to Rick Seaney, analyst and CEO for travel website FareCompare, roughly two months out is the best time to shop for holiday airfares and desired flight times. As the days pass, it's going to get a lot tougher to find a low-cost fare or a non-redeye flight without arriving or departing on Thanksgiving Day itself.
It may seem a bit early to start thinking about travel, turkey and stuffing, but holiday travel demand doesn't care about your calendar. Even if you haven't bought a single present, travel experts say you should consider making a plane ticket your first holiday purchase. Airline holiday travel surcharges, finite capacity and a narrow travel window all help jack up prices while reducing alternatives for procrastinators.
After consulting with the folks at TripAdvisor's(TRIP) SmarterTravel, Priceline(PCLN) and FareCompare, we've realized it's clearly time to panic about holiday travel. Don't think so? Go ahead, mock the holiday travel market. Here are at least five reasons you're wrong and will pay for your indecision and arrogance:
5. Everybody wants to fly when you do
We don't just mean during the holidays. We mean the exact days you do. Flying in on Nov. 21 just before Thanksgiving and leaving on Nov. 25 or Nov. 26 right after the stuffing's digested is ideal, which is why those are the most expensive days on the calendar. The price of a round-trip flight from Los Angeles to New York arriving Nov. 21 and leaving on Nov. 25 or Nov. 26 was $520 to $565 back in August. Fares on less ideal days are close to that price now and ...
4. It's not getting cheaper
FareCompare's Seaney says that while there's a chance an unexpected bargain will come up sometime between now and Thanksgiving or the winter holidays, there's a far better chance airlines will continue to cut capacity as needed and leave you with nothing. Seaney says fares jump $5 a day between now and the holidays, which jacks up the price of your ticket $35 for every week you wait.
Right now, fares start at roughly $120 round trip for a short-haul flight of 500 miles or less and $425 for long-haul flights of 1,500 miles or more. Just don't give those starting-at prices too much credence. According to SmarterTravel, last year round-trip fares from New York to Charleston, S.C., reached $960 by October while a flight from Boston to Dallas was nearly $800 a month out. Also ...

Riding a tigerDecember 06,2013When I studied Chinese many years ago, my teacher in Beijing explained to me the meaning of the word hen for hatred: Its the way we Chinese feel about Japan.
And, a couple of times over the years, Ive had Chinese tell me that Americas big mistake after World War II was failing to exterminate the entire Japanese population.
This loathing for Japan, now harnessed to a growing military power, forms the backdrop for dangerous tensions in the East China Sea. Nobody wants war over a handful of uninhabited rocks in the Pacific Ocean, but theres a risk of an accident spinning out of control. Moreover, Japan, China and the United States have botched their handling of these enormously sensitive territorial disputes, and we now have nationalists at the helm of Japan and China.
This is a chance for everyone to take a deep breath and think about the rise of China the most important geopolitical trend of our time. China is projected to surpass the United States to become the worlds largest economy, after allowing for price differences, in about three years, according to estimates of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, a group that includes the worlds industrialized countries. Chinas currency has just overtaken the euro as the second most used in trade finance, after the dollar.
Chinas government is investing heavily in its military, including a blue water navy, and plenty of Chinese believe that their government has been too conciliatory and wimpish. Indeed, a more democratic China might well be more assertive and more challenging to its neighbors particularly Japan.
China actually has a reasonable claim to the Diaoyu Islands, as it calls them, although it is increasingly ham-handed in asserting those claims. The strongest evidence comes from Japanese government documents of the Meiji era, referring to the islands as Chinas and scheming to grab them which is what Japan did when China was weak in 1895. It renamed the islands the Senkakus.
After World War II, the United States controlled the islands, and, in 1972, it handed over administration to its ally Japan without taking a position on who owns them. Conflict has grown with rising nationalism in both China and Japan (Taiwan, which also claims the islands, has been most levelheaded).
Japan erred last year when it bought the islands from a private landowner nationalizing them despite strong warnings from both China and America. Likewise, the Obama administration was wrong to say explicitly that it would back Japan in any war over the islands.
Really? Were ready to fight over uninhabited rocks when we dont even take a position on their ownership? If Washingtons intention was to get Beijing to back off, this was counterproductive. The move just inflamed Chinese opinion.
We are dealing with an extremely delicate situation, notes Cheng Li, a China expert at the Brookings Institution. He worries that Americans may not always appreciate the sensitivities involved.
Chinas new leader, Xi Jinping, is a complicated figure and a self-confident nationalist who has ties to some of the fiery ultranationalists in the Peoples Liberation Army but also wants good relations with Washington. He presumably is behind Chinas declaration last month of an air defense identification zone that overlaps with disputed territory.
Xi badly overplayed his hand. Theres nothing wrong with China declaring such a zone (the United States and Japan both have them), but it was done in a bellicose way that echoed similar belligerence in the South China Sea. And the world doesnt have much sympathy for Chinas leaders when they bully neighbors, blockade news and social media websites, and imprison a Nobel Peace Prize winner like Liu Xiaobo.
Chinas Foreign Ministry officials offer Xi sensible counsel, but they are often outmaneuvered by hawks in the military. I once asked a Chinese general about moderate Foreign Ministry statements on the South China Sea. The general scoffed: Thats the Foreign Ministrys position, not Chinas position.
One risk is of a military accident like the 2001 collision of a U.S. spy plane and a Chinese fighter aircraft. The Chinese leader at the time, Jiang Zemin, returned the American plane and crew, but Xi might not be so conciliatory.
The upshot is that we need crisis hotlines so we can manage a crisis if it happens. The Obama administration also needs a senior point person for China, which it doesnt really have now.
For his part, Xi should realize that saber-rattling distracts from economic development and that an emerging great power like China cannot harness modern weaponry to old and almost tribal hatreds. Those of us who admire Chinas accomplishments need to make the point that nationalist propaganda, muscle-flexing and demonizing Japan are dangerous games. As a Chinese saying goes, its easier to ride a tiger than to dismount.

the Heat have sold out their season tickets so that's a positive spin to this.
So if this does happen, what are the consequences?
Here is a couple that I can think of:
1) CBA: This will make owners hammer down on players even more. Players talking with each other to decided who they want to play with and where? There will be more guildlines with contracts then what was previously discussed. We will most likely have a lockout next season. The NBA will get hurt. Owners will loose money and players will loose freedoms they currently have. I wouldn't be surprised if owners are preparing for a lockout if the signing happens. After an agreement, Owners could have more power. They can sprial the NBA into a worse direction. I doubt that owners will lower tickets prices because they do not have to pay players as much. People are greedy, especially those with a lot of money. They usually want more.
2) Lebron has ruined his brand. Lebron will not win a championship next year. A big three with nine crap players will not cut it. If Lebron does not win a championship his brand means nothing. And if there is a lockout, there goes another year. The guys get older and their salaries get bigger, which is harder for the Heat to sign quality players unless they lucky in the draft.
3) This will cement Kobe's legacy. I think this makes the Lakers even more dangerous now that you have three superstars together with a horrible supporting cast. Lakers will win one or two more championships.
This is all I can think of, please add more or critique away =).
the Heat have sold out their season tickets so that's a positive spin to this.
I hope LJ has a season ending injury, hows that.
The coach cannot get along with some good players and so they let Nate Robinson go. The GM is stupid as well.
They now are going to let their best player go from last year. Resign him and we will at least have Stoudemire and David Lee.
Too late now! Lee was let go in a sign and trade to the Golden State Warriors for a bunch of second rate players last nite.
Stoudemire is injury prone and he is a one man band on the Knicks now. I am deciding now if they are worth watching this year.

Apart from that Cleveland winning a title bit, I think this statement could turn out to be fairly accurate. Lebron, Wade and Bosh are not Pierce, Allen and KG. Their egos are much bigger and there is just one ball in the game. Either way, this "Big Three 2.0" might turn out to be a catastrophy for the NBA. Either they win and win until it is not even funny anymore, or they lose and ruin the reputation of a whole generation of NBA players.
I guess they were too scared of becoming the next Malone, Ewing and Barkley. Sad really.

1. NBA's popularity will decrease to a point. While Tiger Woods wasn't bad for Golf - Tiger Woods' ability exposed Golf to a worldwide audience previously unaware of it. The Miami Heat, on the other hand, do not have a whole lot of fans - and the presence of three superstars on the Miami Heat will not generate a whole lot of fan support for the NBA either domestically or abroad. Miami isn't really interested in basketball - look at their recent ticket sales despite having a top 3 player and a championship under their belt and playoff berths.
2. I want the value of a max contract to INCREASE. Yeah, that's right. If a max deal suddenly becomes 25 million dollars (and the salary cap doesn't change), teams can't stockpile FAs anymore. I like it.

In my humble opinion we will have real madrit in NBA few stars = 0 titles, second place ewentually. Could Lebron-Bosh-Wade be another big three ?

Broad Coalition Forms in Support of Stronger Anti-Gun Violence Laws
September 4, 2012
Assemblywoman Michelle Schimel speaks about the need for microstamping and other gun violence prevention measures at a recent press conference at City Hall.
New York, NY – Assemblywoman Michelle Schimel joined Senator Michael Gianaris, anti-gun violence advocates, law enforcement officials, labor advocacy groups, and members of the State Legislature recently at City Hall to urge the passage of sensible gun violence prevention legislation. At the press conference, Senator Gianaris announced a broad coalition of support in favor of a package of sensible gun legislation. Following a recent up tick in gun violence across the country as well as in New York State, Senator Gianaris introduced a series of gun violence prevention bills based on criteria established by the Brady Campaign which ranks each state according to the strength of its gun laws. The legislative package includes proposals that would responsibly strengthen New York's gun laws and increase protection from gun violence. Featured in this legislative package is Assemblywoman Schimel's microstamping legislation, which would provide law enforcement with a critical tool to solve gun crimes. Microstamping allows police officers to trace firearms through cartridge casings found at crime scenes, even if the crime gun is never found. Assemblywoman Michelle Schimel stated that microstamping and gun violence prevention should be the number one priority for elected officials. "The need for a comprehensive approach to illegal gun trafficking is validated every day. I will say it again and again; elected officials must put the public safety of its citizens before the interests of the gun lobby. People are dying," said Assemblywoman Schimel.

Rotting Fruit and Puddle Parties: Check out the Butterfly Pavilion!It is that time of year again! Sunday is the opening of our Butterfly Pavilion, and although we still have hundreds of free-flying butterflies there's a lot that has changed out there. We have replanted the entire space, adding many more nectar and host plants for adults and caterpillars. We have also added new food sources for some of the adult butterflies that aren't quite so partial to sipping nectar!
The Mourning Cloak butterfly, Nymphalis antiopa, is one of the California native butterflies we put in our pavilion. Although these butterflies are not common to our area, they can be found in areas where their host plants thrive. Caterpillars of this species feed on various willow (Salix species), cottonwood (Populus species), and ornamental elms (Ulnus species). Unlike many of the other species of butterflies in our pavilion, the Mourning Cloak butterfly prefers to feed on rotting fruit rather than plant nectar. In an effort to appeal to...

State failing to prepare students for college
About two-thirds of high school graduates in West Virginia go on to higher education. Of that number, only about 40 percent obtain degrees or college certificates within six years.
Do the math: Only about one-fourth of the state's high school graduates are successful in higher education. That is a dismal record, contributing to the fact West Virginia has one of the lowest rates of college graduates in the nation.
That simply won't do if our young people – and our state's economy – are to be competitive in an increasingly complex, demanding world.
We have known for years that part of the problem is high school diplomas that are not realistic foundations for higher education. About one-third of the freshmen entering Mountain State colleges and universities require remedial classes, according to the Higher Education Policy Commission.
News from one of the leading college preparatory test companies makes it clear that is a national concern, to some extent. This week, the company revealed nearly one-third of the high school graduates who took the ACT tests this year were not prepared for college-level work.
Numbers like these have been bandied about for many years, without much to show for the discussion. A distressing percentage of high school graduates continue to fail in higher education because they were not prepared adequately for it.
Thoughtful higher education and public school officials understand recriminations will accomplish nothing. But clearly, an objective look needs to be taken into why so many young people are not ready for education after high school.

A serial killer who committed suicide in an Alaskan jail claims he killed four people here in Washington State. The question is who were his victims?
Before committing suicide in Alaska over the weekend, Israel Keyes told investigators he murdered several people across the country including a couple in Vermont and four people in Washington.
Records show Keyes spent at least his teenage years in Colville, and has been doling information out to detectives for several months now, but told investigators if they went public with his name the flow of information about unsolved killings would stop.
Keyes allegedly confessed to killing Bill and Lorraine Currier of Essex Junction, Vermont.
He flew into Chicago, rented a car and drove across several states before arriving there, the FBI said. He is then thought to have traveled around the East Coast before returning to Chicago and then Alaska, where he had lived since 2007.
Prior to that, he lived in Washington State, where he confessed to killing four people, the FBI said. He is likewise alleged to have admitted to killing another person, somewhere on the East Coast, in 2009. The identities of those five victims were not released.
Finally, Keyes was accused and charged in the death of 18-year-old Samantha Koenig, the Alaskan barista. She was last seen on February 1 being led away by a man from the parking lot of the coffee stand where she worked. Her body was found in a lake north of Anchorage.
He is said to have buried supplies he planned to use in future crimes, and investigators recovered two caches, one in Eagle River, Alaska, and one near Blake Falls Reservoir in New York. They contained weapons and items used to dispose of bodies, the FBI said.
If he had been convicted in Koenig's death, Keyes could have faced the death penalty.
CNN contributed to this report.

3 years in prison on drug charges
A Columbus man involved in one of the largest black tar heroin busts in Washington County history was sentenced Monday in Washington County Common Pleas Court to three years in prison -half the time being served by a Vincent man involved in the bust.
Clarence Cage Jr., 55, of 3299 Eakin Road, was pulled over March 2, 2012 by the Marietta Police Department after an agent of the Major Crimes Task Force witnessed Cage and 26-year-old Jeffrey Braun, of Vincent, complete a transaction in a parking lot near the Bob Evans on Pike Street in Marietta.
"Braun was under surveillance by the Major Crimes Task Force. They watched the exchange and they followed both vehicles," said Washington County Prosecutor Jim Schneider.
When stopped on Interstate 77, Cage admitted selling drugs to Braun. He had $4,000 in cash and 28.7 grams of heroin in his possession, the street value of which was estimated between $50 to $75 for a tenth of a gram.
Stopped that same night in Beverly, Braun, of 1080 Walsh Road, had an additional 38 grams of heroin in his possession, worth an estimated $20,000 or more.
Cage was indicted in July on a first-degree felony count of possession of drugs and a second-degree felony count of trafficking in drugs.
He pleaded guilty Feb. 28 to the second-degree felony trafficking charge and faced a maximum of eight years on the charge.
Braun, who was sentenced in May, also faced a maximum of eight years on his second-degree felony possession charge. He was sentenced by Washington County Common Pleas Court Judge Ed Lane to serve six years in prison.
Cage was scheduled to go to trial in November, said Schneider. However, he showed up later -twenty minutes after the jury had been dismissed-and his bond was revoked until he pleaded in February.
He will receive 107 days credit on his three year sentence, said Washington County Common Pleas Court Judge Randall Burnworth, who sentenced Cage.
"The presentence investigation shows a lengthy criminal history, primarily in Cook County, Ill. and Franklin County, Ohio," noted Burnworth.
Cage has prior charges for burglary, drug trafficking, possession of a controlled substance, and delivery of a controlled substance, said Schneider.
Cage was also ordered to forfeit $4,042 that was on him when he was pulled over with the heroin.
Cage had initially requested to postpone Monday's sentencing because he has an upcoming court appearance in Franklin County for a pending third-degree felony charge of drug trafficking and a fifth-degree felony charge of drug possession. However, Burnworth denied the request.

Staff and wire reports
PORTALES — New Mexico State Police Officers Lance Bateman and Clint Varnell had just finished helping two women and three small children from a vehicle in a flooded ditch.
"I heard a loud crack and felt the pain on my head then went down," Bateman said Wednesday from his bed at Lubbock's Covenant Hospital. "I remember I was laying in the water when I came to and he (Varnell) was standing over me."
The pain Bateman experienced was from a nearby lightning strike.
Officials said Varnell also was injured by lightning as the officers assisted motorists on a rain-flooded road a few miles south of Portales about 8:30 p.m. Tuesday night.
Both men stayed on the job for two hours before driving themselves to the hospital. They were in stable condition Wednesday evening and were expected to be released today.
Varnell and Bateman were called to help people in about 15 vehicles stranded on flooded New Mexico Highway 206, known to residents as the Lovington Highway, about five miles south of Portales, said state police Lt. Jimmy Glascock.
The region had received 2 to 4 inches of rain in just a few hours.
Bateman said that when he and Varnell arrived at the scene, rain was pouring down, water was sweeping across the roadway and there was a lot of lightning.
"It was bad," he said.
Glascock said authorities initially thought the two men were hit directly, but further investigation showed the officers — who were in standing water at the time — were very close to the strike.
Both officers described a sharp pain in the top of their heads and were extremely nauseous afterward.
Bateman said he and Varnell continued working after the strike because "it really wasn't much choice. We couldn't go anywhere anyway. The road was impassable for a while."
Bateman said they drove themselves to Roosevelt General Hospital in Portales, then were taken by ambulance to Covenant Hospital in Lubbock.
"All I have is a headache and a sore shoulder," said Bateman, who had been awake for 24 hours before he fell asleep Wednesday afternoon.
Bateman said he did not consider his work heroic.
"Just earning my pay." he said.
Besides, "we needed the rain," said Bateman, who has been a state police officer for a little more than two years. He said Varnell has been with the force for about seven years.
Roosevelt County Commissioner Tom Clark said he admires both officers for performing their duties under such difficult conditions.
"I have a very strong respect and admiration for them … I hope neither is hurt in a permanent condition," Clark said.

Good move by Walsh.
You can never have too many good shooters. I suppose that's one thing he can do that AR is still needing a lot of work on...
When rebuilding a team, you sometimes have to get lucky on a few hunches. Donnie Walsh already had one with the decision to draft unheralded prospect Landry Fields in the second round. But Walsh might be on the verge of going two-for-two, as Shawne Williams has emerged from a non-guaranteed training camp invitee to a valuable reserve in Mike D'Antoni's rotation.
With 13 points in 21 minutes on 5 of 7 shooting from the field in Friday's win over New Orleans, Williams provided a much-needed dimension for this team: a knock-down shooter. Toney Douglas and Bill Walker have been inconsistent and Roger Mason Jr. has struggled to regain his shooting form from his San Antonio days, so D'Antoni has been searching for a shooter to take advantage of those double-teams designed to stop Amar'e Stoudemire and the emerging pick-and-roll with Raymond Felton.
Williams, as evidenced not just in Friday's game but by what he has showed in practice scrimmages, has a sweet stroke, but more importantly, he's a high-IQ player who generally makes smart plays and moves the ball.
"I just want to thank Coach for giving me this opportunity," Williams said. "I knew it was going to come because, you know, it's 82 game season and with Ronny [Turiaf] down we're short some players. I just wanted to be ready and help the team when I could help them."
Williams came to the Knicks as a reclamation project desperate for a second chance. We told you his story back in October, just days before he was surprisingly chosen over fan-favorite Patrick Ewing Jr. for the final roster spot before opening night. Williams, whose troubled past made him somewhat of a risk, worked hardest on proving he had put his problems behind him while he put in extra time after practice working on his game. The 6-9 forward said he knew an opportunity would come sooner or later and his goal was to be ready for it.
"In this league, everybody gets a chance, everybody," Williams said. "Doesn't matter who you are, you could be the last person on the bench. But someone you always get a chance because it's 82 games . . . you just got to stay ready. Coach did a good job with preparing me though."
Truth is, D'Antoni has been talking about Williams for the last two weeks and just looking for a reason to get him into a game. Williams has played in each of the last three games (though his 1:37 against the Nets on Tuesday was garbage time) and will likely be in the rotation for the foreseeable future.
"We just needed what he gives us," D'Antoni said. "Shooting and I knew he was going to be open because of Amar'e and the pick-and-roll. We need somebody to knock 'em down and he did."
For Williams, that seems to be the easy part in this comeback for a former first round pick who after drug-related arrests and poor choices found himself out of the league just three seasons into his career when the Nets waived him in January.
"It's a lot different than before because through all the things I've been through, it's a lot different," Williams said. "I'm just playing ball. It's a lot easier. When I get on the court, all the off the court stuff and all the issues, it's out of my mind. I'm just playing ball."
Williams, who like many players whose growth is hindered by the tractor beam of guilt by less fortunate friends from their neighborhood, said he had an epiphany after his last transgression in July, when he was arrested along with friends in Memphis -- including former Memphis Tigers teammate Kareem Cooper -- allegedly in possession of drugs and a loaded gun. Williams was charged with driving with a suspended license.
The arrest came days after Williams played for the Charlotte Bobcats in the NBA Summer League and effectively ended any chance of getting an invite to Bobcats training camp. The Knicks agreed to have him in as a 16th player mostly as a favor to agent Happy Walters, who also represents Amar'e Stoudemire. Walsh knew Williams well because he was with the Pacers when Larry Bird selected him 17th overall in the 2006 draft.
No one knew what to expect when Williams arrived, but he was already a changed man.
"It was like a lightswitch clicked on one day and I just knew what I should be doing," Williams said. "I knew I should be just playing ball and that's the bottom line. I just got back into it."
At 24, there's still plenty of time for him. And though he openly laments the three wasted years, the road did lead him here, far away from that undisciplined kid who arrived in Indiana.
"I'm not going to say I'm in a better place because it could have been better, but I can say I wouldn't trade this space where I'm at now for nothing in the world," Williams said. "I'm playing ball, I love what I'm doing and I'm with a good group of guys."

Good move by Walsh.
You can never have too many good shooters. I suppose that's one thing he can do that AR is still needing a lot of work on...
I really enjoyed watching Williams play. His minutes were vital because they really dented New Orleans efforts to come back at us.
If he keeps knocking down shots when Amare is double teamed then this guy is going to become very, very valuable to us.
However, a note of caution, he only did that in one game so let`s not get too excited. I hope that he does it regularly.
WOW Great Thread! At first I thought this was another thread about us fans getting overly excited about a player who had one good game (see Jonathan Bender and Bill Walker threads as prime examples) but William's story is deeper than that!
I am pulling for this kid regardless of what he does for us on the floor! Hopefully Donnie assigns Alan Houston to him as a mentor to help keep him on the right path.
"I'd Rather Melo shoot with 3 men on him than Jefferies shotting wide open"
-Jeff Van Gundy
I think Randolph needs to spend more time learning from STAT how to play in this offense. STAT drives and takes the ball to the rim but also isn't afraid to kick it out to the good shooters we have to hit the open jumper if possible.
Randolph on the other hand forces things way too much. If he's got the ball he's gotta go for a basket, leads to him taking some really ugly ass looking shots and he's gotta fix that if he wants to play in this offense.
D'Antoni's offense gives you the freedom to run and take a lot of shots but it's a double-edged sword in the fact that it only succeeds when it's being run well by players who know the difference between a good and a bad shot - Randolph clearly does not know this yet and that's probably why he's being benched right now.
smh the Nets didnt waive him, Dallas did. Its Shawne Williams, not Sean Williams from bumston college
He's really impressed me. Anytime he throws up an open shot it looks good to me lol.
Haven't felt that way since early last year with Gallo and his hot 3 pt shooting.
#17 pick, and even then he fell some due to 'tude problems. Ability is undeniable.
What happened to him personally and criminally will usually break a kid entirely. In rare cases, a man comes out of it, with maturity well beyond his or most peoples' years.
Williams may be that person.
But a shame our Celebrity Coach has no idea how to use him to help us win games, or play young and unproven players.

A new phone app is designed to help keep drunken drivers off the road.
The "Drive Sober" app launched by the state Department of Transportation allows motorists to estimate their blood alcohol content and select a designated driver. The app also has a function to find a safe ride home that uses the phone's GPS to provide contacts for nearby taxi, mass transit and designated-driver services.
It also includes a simulation showing the physical effects of being drunk.
The department is touting the app in advance of the St. Patrick's holiday weekend.
A free download of the app -- available via iTunes and Google Play -- is online at www.zeroinwisconsin.gov.
