Area Roundup: Jefferson routs Lewis County
BECKLEY – Jalen Smith scored 23 points and Josh Dudley scored 22 as Jefferson County downed Lewis County 75-58 in a Class AAA consolation game of the Big Atlantic Classic.
The Cougars opened up a close game in the third quarter, outscoring the Minutemen 27-11.
"We played really well," coach Richard Lewis. "It was a great tournament for us to play in. We saw a lot of great competition and teams. We hope it prepares us well for the postseason."
Smith had five assists and Dudley had four for Jefferson (4-11). Each had three steals. Kalen Nehler grabbed seven rebounds.
Center John Riley led Lewis County (9-7) with 25 points and 15 rebounds, both game-highs. Skylar Carlton added eight points and seven rebounds.
Lewis County coach Charles Simms was ejected early in the fourth quarter for arguing with the referees.
Jefferson has a makeup game with Hampshire Monday.
Greenbrier East 70,
Musselman 59
BECKLEY – Down nine points late in the third quarter and staring at its second straight loss during Saturday's consolation game at the Big Atlantic Classic, Class AAA No. 4 Greenbrier East decided it had enough.
Sparked by the play of point guard Bryce Woodliff – who finished with a game-high 25 points, including seven 3s – the Spartans cut the Musselman lead to four at the end of the third quarter and then outscored the Applemen 21-6 over the final eight minutes to claim a 70-59 victory.
Prior to the late run, the Spartans (16-1), who shot just 25.9 percent from the field in the first half, were settling for outside shots. East finished the game just 11 for 32 from behind the stripe – most of that from the hot hand of Woodliff – and Musselman (11-5) was taking advantage, getting runouts off of the rebounds and attacking the basket.
All of that helped the Applemen build a 51-42 advantage.
Musselman took advantage of the Spartan shooting woes by attacking the lane with Trevon Wesco and Hargroves, and when R.J. Stephens knocked down one of his four 3-pointers with 3:13 left before the half, the Applemen took their first lead, 25-24.
East went into the half up only one, 30-29.
"I thought we executed well," said Musselman coach Derek Basile. "I thought we had them frustrated. We did a nice job on (leading scorer Rondale Watson), and he wasn't sure what to do."
Watson, who finished with 23 points and four rebounds despite taking just seven shots all game, put pressure on the defense and got to the foul line, where he knocked down 13 of 15 attempts.
As a team, East finished 23 of 29 from the line, where Musselman attempted only 12 shots all game.
"We went to the basket a lot, and we didn't get fouls called," said Basile. "They got to the line on the other end and made a lot of them. That's a big difference."
Musselman will host Jefferson Tuesday.

Daniel reached the 1,000-point scoring mark for her career in the win.
Daniel hit on 10 of 13 shots from the floor. She was 7 of 7 from the line. Daniel also added seven rebounds. She reached the 1,000-point milestone after scoring on a layup with 17:47 left in the first half. Daniel (1,025 career points) ranks 14th on the Shepherd all-time scoring list.

Alderson-Broaddus had a 37-30 lead at halftime behind a 10-point first half effort from Hurst and nine points from Peoples.
The Rams rallied in the second half to pull away for the win. Shepherd used a 15-6 run late in the game to open up an 11-point lead to seal the victory.
Shepherd improved to 9-10, 8-7 in WVC action, while Alderson-Broaddus fell to 4-14, 3-11.

January Blog Leaders
Mlblogs has posted the top 50 leaders for the month of January, and yours truly finished in 15th place. I guess that's to be expected, as many readers typically only follow ballhawk blogs during the MLB season. Hopefully, my daily postings leading up to opening day will reel some more readers in.
Here's the top 40 of the 50: (40 because I couldn't get all 50 to fit on my screen for a screen shot)
If you want to explore those top 40 blogs further, then you can click HERE.
I think my goal for February will be to break into the top 10. In January 2011 I was 23rd on the list, and February 2011 I was 25th. So being in the top 10 would be a huge improvement.
Anyway, in other semi-baseball related news. Today is Olivia's 6 month birthday, so we went shopping to see if we could get her any presents. I ran across a few baseball items.
Check out the hat rack at the WalMart in Delmont PA.
Do you see anything that catches your eye? Check it out:
If any of you Pittsburgh ballhawks needs a KC Royals hat, the Wal-Mart in Delmont has them for $7. It's a must have as the Royals are set to visit PNC Park in June this year. I didn't buy one as I already have two Kansas City Royals hats.
Also at WalMart, I couldn't help myself. I bought another pack of 2012 Topps Cards.
I got two Pirates, Chase D'Arndaud and Jared Hughes
Ryan Braun and Chipper Jones were probably my two best overall players:
We also stopped in a dollar store, and I froze when I walked past this display:
I picked up a pack of 20 random cards for $1 just for the heck of it.
Here's what I got:
All crap.
There was a 1981 Dave Kingman card and 1989 Donruss Mark McGwire card, but nothing worth more than 50 cents.
There's only 61 more days until Opening Day, 14 days until pitchers and catchers report to spring training, and 1 more day to win this Matt Wieters shirt.
I've been keeping an eye on the comments and my twitter feed and compiling the list of candidates for the shirt. I have 43 entries so far. Zac Weiss has posted and retweeted 10 times, meaning he has about a 1 in 4 chance. Also I have Joey Orr down for 7 entries in the drawing. Remember, to enter all you have to do is leave a comment and/or retweet my blog entry each day. I'll throw all of the names into a (Baltimore Orioles) hat tomorrow and let Olivia pick the winner out.
8 Comments
It looks like I need to go to Delmont. I will be posting again soon, but I have been doing three or four articles a week lately, and thus I have been quite busy. No update on my internship yet but I will likely fire off an email on Monday about the gate times thing. I have been patient and have given it time. I will definitely need a Royals hat if I ballhawk. I am tired of going into stores and seeing all kinds of MLB hats for $32. I am not made of money like I used to be. I am setting aside a decent amount of money in case I don't get the internship and can buy season tickets.
How do you find out how many people read your blog? I ballhawked fairly actively in 2009 and blogged about it. I would be curious to see how many people actually read the thing. I am not the most tech savvy guy so it was mainly just writing with a few pictures. Did you ever get a chance to read it?
Big Glove Bob
Congrats on getting up to #15 and good luck on cracking the Top 10.
Congratulations on the 15th place rank, just wait til the season starts!
Seriously, can you ever pass up a pack of baseball cards…..You know that they have people that can help you with your addiction…..HAHAHA

Expert: Rutland has room for retail growthBy Gordon Dritschilo
Staff Writer | March 20,2013Rutland could use more toy stores, book stores and restaurants, according to a business consultant.
Tripp Muldrow of Arnett, Muldrow and Associates in South Carolina performed the marketing study commissioned by the Downtown Rutland Partnership in 2009. Wednesday, he offered the audience at the Rutland Business Summit an update to the data he collected.
"Rutland is among the most regional markets in which we've ever worked," he said. "You serve as a commercial center for a very large geography. ... That puts Rutland at a distinct advantage because you are that center, you are the city for this region."
The event Wednesday, attended by about 25 people at the Franklin Conference Center, featured almost a dozen speakers, most of them listing the various resources available to people looking to start or expand a business in Rutland.
"People talk about, 'there's no help for business in Vermont,'" said Jamie Stewart, executive director of the Rutland Economic Development Corp. "I've heard that so many times, and it's usually because they haven't reached out."
Stewart said he and his organization can connect an existing or potential business to a wide variety of resources at the state and federal level, putting business owners with a specific person who will walk them through the process. He said the most important piece of information he wanted to get out was his phone number: 773-9147.
"If you see that you have an opportunity in your business, come and talk to us," Stewart said. "We'll see where we can help you. ... If you're talking to someone who's talking about starting their own business, send them our way. We can save them from spending money, we can save them from spinning their wheels, we can save them a lot of time."

Taught by Rabbi Adam Zeff of Germantown jewish Centre & guest lecturers from the Film World
Monthly continuing November 13 (also meets Dec 4, Jan 8, Feb 5 & Mar 5)
Films often hold a mirror up to society by reflecting current ethical issues on the big screen. The drama and intensity of the courtroom and the role of lawyers often figure prominently in such films. In this 6-session class, we will examine portrayals of ethical issues facing lawyers in film, seeing how Jewish ethics might be able to shed light on the dilemmas that are framed and the choices that are made by the characters and what this might teach us about our own dilemmas and choices. Advanced registration necessary, GJC Members $150 / Non-Members $200 (Lunch & Texts Included).

"...in the spring of 2004 had several days of relatively heavy rain followed by one day of unprecedented rain in which 10 inches fell in 24 hours." Flood Map, Watershed in the SW DR on the Haitian border-Lee Daneker
Hello! befdgbk interesting befdgbk site! I'm really like it! Very, very befdgbk good!
Lee Daneker, 2004-2005, Dominican Republic, Crisis Corps.
"It depicts a watershed in the SW DR on the Haitian boarder. The watershed suffered a serious flood in 2004, which led to my CC assignment...The fan shape is an approximation of the extent of the watershed. The area is more or less a desert, but in the spring of 2004 it had several days of relatively heavy rain followed by one day of unprecended rain in which 10 inches fell in 24 hours. The flood began in Haiti, which is above and to the right of the red line...The small black squares the towns in Haiti, some of which were wiped out with a loss of life of about 2,000. The flood, which was a mixture of rock, water, and mud, was channeled through a narrow canyon (the solid black lines), burst out of the canyon at about 3 am, destroyed about a third of Jimani... killed 800 people, and wiped out a swath of agricultural land between the town and Lago Enriquillo (the blue at the lower left corner)."
Arroyo Blanco
Mark Hofmeister, 2001-2003, Arroyo Blanco.
"I put together this map to help seek funding sources for the project. Most proposals required a map so I drew this map up. The community has 85 houses, and approximately 350 people. We put in the water system and 85 water taps. The water source was about 3 km from the town water tank that we built which has three transmission lines that supply the 85 houses."

CLOVIS — The season may be nearly six months off, but Clovis High boys basketball coach J.D. Isler believes the summer schedule his team will go through over the next six weeks is crucial.
Isler's four-week summer league began Tuesday at Rock Staubus Gym, and he hopes the Wildcats can establish a foundation for the 2006-07 campaign.
"We've got a lot of experience coming back," he said. "We were so young last year, but all these young kids played.
"I can absolutely tell a difference from (this time) last year."
Teams play 20-minute games on Tuesday and Thursday nights through mid-June, with a running clock until the final two minutes. Seven teams are in the league, including two Clovis squads and "Clovis Exes," made up primarily of former CHS players.
Others are Portales, Texico, Clovis Christian and Logan.
Veteran Portales coach Mark Gallegos said the Rams are in the process of trying to figure out how to replace several mainstays from last year's 16-12 squad which lost in the Class 3A state semifinals.
"This summer, we're trying to put some people into the rotation," Gallegos said. "We're going to have to kind of come together as a team and figure out our roles."
The Rams have been relatively small in recent years, but usually figure out a way to counter the lack of size.
"We're going to have to shoot the ball a lot better than we have," Gallegos said. "I think we'll be OK inside; we're never very big, but we're going to have to overcome it."
Meantime, Clovis wraps up its summer with four consecutive out-of-town weekend camps, beginning June 9-10 at Frenship, Texas.
"I want us to get in good enough condition for our team camps so we can get some good out of them," Isler said. "Obviously, we've got a good core back. They're real competitive, tough kids."
CHS guard Bryce Hill said the team hopes to use the summer schedule as a building block. The Cats' season came to an end in March with a loss at Valley in the Class 5A round of 16.
"We're just trying to work hard and make sure we're ready for the season," said Hill, who will be a junior. "We're trying to make it to the final four (at state) this year, and then try to win it. We have to outhustle people if we want to go (farther than last season), and we have to play as a team."

The final meals of condemned prisoners are an enduring, if morbid, source of fascination.
Cornell University researchers studied 193 last meal requests in the United States. Take a look at some of the most requested items.
French fries made the list.
Soda was a common request.
Some inmates requested pints of ice cream.
On death row, last meals tend to be high in calories and heavy on meat.
Requests vary greatly, but Cornell researchers found some general trends in a quirky bit of research analyzing last meal orders.
There were a lot of requests for steak.
More than two-thirds of the condemned ordered fried foods and they ordered dessert at about the same rate.
Inmates were five times more likely to request soda than milk.
The average meal request came in at an estimated 2,756 calories.
One inmate requested 12 pieces of fried chicken, two buttered rolls, mashed potatoes with brown gravy, two sodas and a pint each of strawberry and vanilla ice cream.
Four percent requested fast-food takeout from chains like McDonald's, Wendy's or KFC.
Researchers said the popularity of comfort foods could reflect people trying to deal with extremely high stress by surrounding themselves with familiar food.
Fruits and vegetables were much less popular.
However, more than a quarter requested a salad.
One prisoner requested a single pitted olive.
Researchers noted that meal requests usually must fall within a budget, and no alcohol is allowed.
Texas, one of the states included in the study, stopped the practice of giving special final meals last year after an extensive request from a man being executed for his role in a notorious hate-crime dragging death.

Tapestry is an open source web application framework written in Java. Highly-interactive and content-rich applications can be easily developed using this framework.
Tapestry offers advantages including a high-performance coarse-grained pooling strategy, high code-reuse, line-precise error reporting, and lots more. Tapestry applications can be run on any servlet container since the apps are 100 percent container agnostic.
Adoption of the tapestry framework eliminates writing servlets and building URLs and query parameters to servlets, even though Tapestry is built on top of the servlet API. Developers can concentrate on coding the application's functionality because Tapestry takes care of the "plumbing" code (creating URLs, dispatching incoming requests, managing server-side state, and so forth).
The Tapestry distribution is available for download at the Tapestry home page on the Apache site.
The Tapestry distribution consists of the following pieces, illustrated in Figure 1:
Figure 1. Contents of the Tapestry distribution
Tapestry has a number of additional runtime dependencies, which must be downloaded and packaged with the above JAR files in the WEB-INF/lib folder of Tapestry web applications. This can be done by the Ant build scripts for Tapestry, which will automatically download these dependencies. The build scripts require some configuration to work; details are available at the Tapestry Wiki. Alternatively, these dependencies may be downloaded from Howard Lewis Ship's quick-start directory as tapestry-libraries.tar.gz (21.7 MB). Copy the dependencies to the WEB-INF/lib folder or any shared library folder to make the JAR files available to the application that is to be developed based on the Tapestry framework. Since Tapestry is a library, this is all that needs to be done for the installation part.
A Tapestry application is different from other traditional web applications based on operation-centric frameworks (e.g., Struts, PHP, etc.). A Tapestry application is a collection of web pages, and each web page is in turn constituted of components. The web pages in Tapestry are nothing but simple HTML pages (not JSPs) and are called as HTML templates. The entire web application is built from these templates and specifications, using minimal Java code.
The Tapestry framework acts as a layer between the Tapestry application and the Java Servlet Container. Tapestry uses the standard Servlet API objects and functions within the existing Servlet container. Since the application components access the Tapestry components, the developed application is totally oblivious of the Servlet API.
In Tapestry-based applications, all the elements on a web page (forms, links, test-boxes, etc.) are represented as components. At the heart of the design is the interface
org.apache.tapestry.IComponent. All objects that may be used to provide dynamic content on a Tapestry-based page are represented by this class.
Figure 2 shows some of the classes and their relations. In short, everything from forms, components of forms like text areas, text fields, hidden fields, submit buttons, and links are represented as objects, methods and properties (each component having its own id). This is the unique Component Object Model (COM).
Figure 2. Class diagram showing the relation between Tapestry components (Click for full-size image)
Model-View-Controller (MVC) is a design paradigm based on separating the user interface of an application from its domain logic. Tapestry's MVC Model 2 implementation is one of the most pure implementations of the pattern.
org.apache.tapestry.IPage interface) also assists the page specification file as the controller.
The simplest way to understand the Tapestry framework is to see it in action. The following is an example that demonstrates how easily applications can be developed using this framework.
By using an example of an online bank, a user can view his balance, place an order for a check book, or edit his profile. Like every application there is a home page called Home.html.
<title>An Online Bank </title>

 Welcome to MyBank>/h1>

Please select action:>/h2>
View Balance
Notice how this is simple HTML, barring one element:
jwcid, which means Java web component ID and is unique to Tapestry. As mentioned earlier, every component in the Tapestry framework has its own ID. When this HTML page is being rendered, a component is created and identified by this
jwcid. So, how will Tapestry determine which type of component to create? This information has to be specified in the Home.page file. Here is a snippet from Home.page:
<page-specification class="com.mybank.Home">
<component id="viewBalanceLink" type="DirectLink">
In this case, a component of the type
DirectLink, identified by
viewBalanceLink, will be created. Behind the scenes, before the page is rendered, Tapestry creates a
page object of the type
org.apache.tapestry.html.BasePage. The second step is to create all the components described in the .page file and associate them with the
Page object. Then the
Page reads the HTML file for information to render the page. When it encounters the component with the ID
viewBalanceLink, the control is transferred to this object for rending the link. This component will output the resultant HTML link to the page to be rendered. In this entire process, the HTML page is used only for reference and is called the template. Here is the code snippet from Home.java:
public abstract class Home extends BasePage{
public abstract AccountBalance getAccountBalancePage();
The page is rendered successfully.
But why is the method
abstract and where is the implementation? Well, Tapestry does that bit of work for you. When Tapestry comes across an unimplemented getter method, it creates a property for it.
So, what happens when a user clicks on this link? We've put the following code in Home.page:
<component id="viewBalanceLink" type="DirectLink">
<binding name="listener" value="listener:onClickViewBalanceLink"/>
Here we can see a new expression:
listener. When a user clicks the link, the listener that has a binding with that component will be called by Tapestry. So, a listener method has to be defined in the page's class:
public IPage onClickViewBalanceLink() {
//do something to give a Account Balance Page
The effect of clicking the link in this scenario is to display the account balance page. So, we have a AccountBalance.html, AccountBalance.page, and the
Page object class AccountBalance.java. But how do we define a relation between the home page and
AccountBalance page? Have a look at this:
public abstract class Home extends BasePage{
public abstract AccountBalance getAccountBalancePage();
public AccountBalance onClickViewBalanceLink() {
return getAccountBalancePage();
The most interesting change that we have made here is the annotation:
@InjectPage. Annotations are a new feature of J2SE 5.0 (Tiger) and are used to provide metadata. Annotations take the form of an at sign (
@), followed by the annotation name. You thwn supply data to the annotation--when data is required--in name=value pairs.
@InjectPage annotation, we have injected the
AccountBalance page into our component. Now this page is available for our listener method to change its value, interact with a backend system or simply display the page named "AccountBalance" as the response after this listener method returns. And this is exactly what we have done!
On the account balance page, the balance is displayed using the tag:

Your account balance is: $

Needless to say, that the
accountBalance is an attribute of the AccountBalance.java class. The same result can be displayed if we include the following tag instead:

Your account balance is:
$
Note that there is an Object Graph Navigational Language (OGNL) expression in the value. OGNL is a powerful open source expression language used to get and set properties of Java objects. When the Tapestry comes across
ognl: it knows that what follows it is an OGNL expression and not a string constant.
Consider a scenario in our banking application in which the user wants to edit his profile. On the "Edit Profile" page there are certain mandatory fields such as name and date of birth. These validations can be done with minimal coding in Tapestry. In the banking application, we have a HTML file for updating personal details (PersonalDetails.html), an XML template (PersonalDetails.page), and the Page Object class(PersonalDetails.java).
Starting by modifying the Page Object class, we add an
ValidationDelegate attribute type. This attribute holds the list of error messages, in case the validation fails. But how does Tapestry know what to validate? Here's how: we update the page specification (PersonalDetails.page) to inform Tapestry that the component
name is mandatory. Also, we bind the
ValidationDelegate to the
Form (
personalDetailsForm) to record any validation errors in its components.
<component id="personalDetailsForm" type="Form">
<binding name="delegate" value="beans.delegate"/>
<component id="name" type="TextField">
<binding name="validators" value="validators:required"/>
Further, we need to have a component to render the error message, after the validation fails. This object records the error and is stored in the
ValidationDelegate object.
<component id="errormsg" type="Delegator">
<binding name="delegate" value="currentFieldTracking.errorRenderer"/>
This way, no code needs to be present in the
Page object class for this validation; although for customized validations we can introduce that part in the
onSubmit() of the
Page class.
Lastly, on the HTML page, following changes need to be made to display the recorded error messages:

This article shows how simple it is to develop a web application using Tapestry. Tapestry adopts a component approach to web development, making it possible to move all the boring plumbing code out of the application and into the framework. Applications developed using the Tapestry framework naturally adapt to the Tapestry philosophy of simplicity, consistency, efficiency, and feedback.

A local hospital asks, "can't we all just get along?"
Dozens of employees filled the auditorium at Gundersen Lutheran Monday afternoon for a lunchtime presentation on bullying.
UW-La Crosse professor Amy Tischler and Dr. Jeff Reiland from Gundersen Lutheran shared their expertise on bullying covering topics from its effects in the classroom, to cyberbullying, to things parents can do. "We all maybe need to step back and take a look at how can we get back to be kinder to one another, being more thoughtful about what we say, what we do, what we write to other people, and certainly there are ramifications for our young people who maybe don't think about those consequences quite as well and quite as often as we do as adults," said Dr. Reiland.
News 8's Jennifer Livingston also shared her recent experience with bullying during the presentation.
The event is part of a series to educate staff on topics relevant to their practice.

The new $200 million cheese plant will have a greater impact on the area economy than many people realize, local officials said.
"The cheese plant will create 2,000 jobs in the area in spinoff industries, according to the Dairy Farmers of America," said Gene Hendrick, a consultant for the Clovis/Curry County Chamber of Commerce. "It would include trucking jobs, additional dairies, retail and other services. There will be a lot of jobs that will spring from it."
Wayne Palla, local dairy farmer and chairman of the Southwest Area Council of the Dairy Farmers of America, said the factory "puts cash flow back to dairy farmers in New Mexico and provides a net savings on hauling and transportation."
"The biggest advantage for us is the fact that we'll have a local home for the milk we produce," Palla said. "Right now, we produce more milk than we have the capacity to handle. At times, we have to ship milk to California, Utah, Oklahoma and other places just to find a home for our milk. It'll be a big boon for us just for the freight savings."
Palla said the new plant, which is hailed to be the largest in North America, "will be able to handle everything being produced in the area right now."
When the cheese plant was first being discussed, officials were saying it would be a $170 million facility, but the figure has moved closer to $200 million, Hendrick said.
"The latest figures we've heard is between $190-200 million," he said. "It will be close to $200 million. That includes the land, buildings, equipment, construction materials and labor."
Construction on the plant is expected to begin by the end of 2003, according to officials. Engineering is underway for the plant, which will sit on a 3,000 acre site five miles south and one mile west of U.S. 70. The estimated time of completion is July 2005.
The plant will create 205 permanent jobs, officials said, with the average annual salary for a permanent plant employee of $29,000.
"It's going to have as much an impact in Roosevelt County as it will in Curry County," said Chase Gentry, executive director of the Clovis Industrial Development Corporation. "In fact, it will be build right on the county line."
Clovis Mayor David Lansford said the factory will contribute millions to eastern New Mexico.
"The bottom line of this whole deal is the fact that it will create jobs not only in the plant, but trucking jobs and other industry-related jobs," he said. "It will affect every tier of the economy in Curry County."


text: After worrying for the last 2 months and posting in the newborn challenges forum about DS weight gain, last week I had him weighed and found out he hasn't gained anything since his 2 week appointment. I spoke with the LC there who was NOT helpful whatsoever. I knew more than she did and she just passed me off to the pediatrician who was your normal doctor who wanted me to give a bottle for a week so I knew exactly how much he is taking in. Not that its bad to give a bottle at times, it just wasnt the "help" I was hoping for. Well, I got the starter SNS and am using formula in it since his improper latch (or whatever is going on) has caused my milk supply to decrease to almost nothing. Nursing with the SNS is awful as my nipples now feel so raw from the plastic rubbing on them constantly and I have had to talk my way through this whole process because Friday I ended up with a headache from crying so hard/much. ANYWAY, I had used all the tricks I knew so decided to call an IBCLC at a different hospital who has an actual BF clinic and tomorrow is my appt.! I cannot wait to get this all worked out! The process is not only painful but long and tedious(sp?): Make bottle and attach to hose, tape to chest, make several attempts at latching him on to breast and hose so that the hose is in the right place for him to suck out of, unlatch and burp to wake up my lazy nurser, swith sides and find perfect spot again, finish and wash all parts, pump for a while to try and boost supply only to get .5 oz out, wash all parts, 30 minutes later start all over again. Please wish me luck tomorrow so that we can figure out what the`problem is, I just want my baby to be healthy! Also so that my rear doesnt have to be stuck to the couch all day so I can take care of the rest of my family - DH and homeschooling 2 little girls.

sounds like u are hoping that the hawks and the wolves g.m.'s are bigger idiots then our gm... i don't think that is the case...
but here's hoping u are right...
Here is the first of two possible plans I could see happening for the Knicks. Eventhough I think we should fire everyone and rebuild, here's what i think could happen if we wanted to build a contender right away.
1. Keep Larry Brown and Isiah Thomas
2. Trade Stephon Marbury to Minnesota for their lottery pick. Include a throw in player such as Richardson and take back a bad contract if necessary, as long as it is no more than 2 years.
3. Package the pick with an expiring contract and trade it to the Clippers for Corey Maggette, (probably Jalen Rose). Maggette may be available.
Jason Richardson might also be available for GS.
4. Sign Mike James to the mid-level exception.
5. Do sign and trade with Atlanta for Al harrington. Include Mo Taylor and Steve Francis. I'd even consider taking Tyronne Lue
Possible starting lineup
PG Mike James
SG Corey maggette
SF Al Harrington
PF Channing Frye
C Eddie Curry
PG Nate Robinson
SG Jamal Crawford
SF Qyntel Woods
PF David Lee
C Jackie Butler/ Jerome James
I picked Mike James and Al harrington because theyexpressed interest in New York and are coming off of bad teams. Also rumors of maggette being dealt.
We don't add a physical rebounder with the new lineup, but we do improve our perimeter defense. I think Harrington can be had in a sign and trade and the Hawks need another shooter. In order for this to work though, Frye has to develop into a more physical presence, Curry has to lose weight and Jerome James has to do the same. The bigger backcourt would help our big men become better shotblockers...Lemme know what y'all think...
Everybody's an expert
on what everybody else
should be doing
sounds like u are hoping that the hawks and the wolves g.m.'s are bigger idiots then our gm... i don't think that is the case...
but here's hoping u are right...
If Garnett is serious about wanting Marbury and does not want to go through a rebuilding project, and their GM wants to keep Garnett and believes re-uniting the two along with having Ricky Davis in the backcourt would make them contenders- then parting with their lottery pick that is projected to be in the 8-10 range in a draft that has no superstars to me does not sound like a stupid move. Who could they get in the draft that would convince Garnett to stay? And as far as Atlanta, they have no real PG except for Tyronne Lue and they need shooting, plus they wouldn't mind seeing Harrington go because they want to develop Marvin Williams. Mo Taylor is an expring contract they could use as trade bait next season, and would give them depth at PF. Francis would provide outside shooting and move Joe Johnson to his more natural position. I don't think those moves are idiotic at all, but again; I'm a Knicks fan.
Everybody's an expert
on what everybody else
should be doing
I agree with the furious one, that these trades are possible. If Glen Taylor is really up to his word about not trading KG, then taking Marbury may be a logical move for them, especially with all the speculation out there about their desired reunion. But it would be virtually impossible to add any other player in the deal b/c Marbury has max type contract. Minny would have to package several players just to get it done. If a trade goes down, I wouldn't be surprised to see another team involved.
A sign & trade with ATL is also a likely possibility. Harrington is going to be a FA looking for a max-type deal. ATL already has money & 'time' committed to similar type players. A sign and trade could work out if ATL doesn't want to let Harrington go w/o getting anything in return. Ideally they'd probably want Marbury b/c of his ties to the region and that he's the better of the two PG's, but unless they would consider throwing in their lottery pick (unprotected) I think NY should only do it for Francis.
Just read that if Minny's pick falls out of the Top 10, they have to ship it out. Not sure to who, but I think it may have to go to Boston as part of the Szczerbiak package.
mike james and corey magette are the last two players we need. Right now we have Jamal playing like the Jamal we wanted him to for the last year and a bit. I think Larry CAN do a good job in bringing up Jamal to be a solid player.
Nate WILL take over the starting PG, just give him time.
Al is the only player worth even thinking about right now. The knicks have what it takes, they just have to figure out where they are going with this.
They don't need D they need to just play offence... haha, jk
what do u guys think about the rumor of us considering Jay Williams. If he's fully recovered and can compete at the NBA level then I would be intrigued. His pedigree at Duke and what he was doing in the last few months of his rookie campaign before the accident make him a promising player.
btw...not sure anyone cares but Minny's pick goes to the Clips if it falls below 10. League office has advised Minny that they cannot bench KG for the remainder of the season.
I read the story that upper managment may be looking at J Will. I dont know if it's true and I'm not convenced that he will help us. I'm not for or against it. I think we need a proven pg. The point guard is the one guy that you want to be a veterine leader. I know this is reaching for the stars but Baron Davis is one of my favorites. I say do what we need to do to get him. Also right now Richardson and Crawford are both playing very well but if we are going for Al Harington then we dont need both of them. That is unless we can move Harington to PF, Richardson to SF and start Crawford at SG. This is a line up I'm all for.
I like what Crawford is doing, the only problem I have with him is his size. I think we need a lockdown perimeter defender if we want to make noise, unless there is some dominating shotblocker available. But shotblockers are hard to come by these days, and we got 4 big men we can't really move right away. Mike james used to be a really good defender when he played with LB, I remember him getting into J Kidd's ass in the playoffs two years ago. J Will is an interesting option at PG, my only question is : is he at least 85% of the player he once was and can he play defense? Unless a franchise player is available out there, the only players we should add to this squad are ones that play D. Maggette is not known especially for his D, but he Is one of th most phjysical two guards in the league, and he gets to the line almost at will.
Everybody's an expert
on what everybody else
should be doing
First of all, why would we want maggette? He would be just one more of the long list of hot shot players that we have!! C'mon guys you've witness first hand what happens when you just load up a team with selfish scorers!! We need blue collar guys, guys that will bang down low!! f you are going to have Frances and/or Marbury in the back court, you need bangers up front. You need guys to dominate the boards so you can free up the outside. The Knicks need rebounders!!! The last thing the knicks need is another 6'5" scorer!! The wolves scenario is not so absurd. Garnett wants to work with Steph again so I say trade him but try to get Hudson and Griffith back (and another salary to match). Let them keep their #1. Harrington is not a bad option but sign and trades usually mean the team that is on the receiving end ususally gets stuck with taking back bacd contracts as well. So, if you do a sign and trade, it better be for a player that is worth all the payroll you would add (his and the various other contracts).
maggette would be a nice fit, he plays D and he's tough, knicks need pmore players like maggette...and maggette is not selfish

Our nationwide fleet training courses are specifically designed for people who are driving for work or professionally in a variety of different vehicles including cars, vans, trucks, buses, coaches, 4x4s and all-terrain vehicles (ATVs).
Fleet driver training is a core part of a fleet management programme and can not only address the safety of a driver but also can reduce fleet management costs through more fuel efficient driving skills and/or fewer crashes.
Our training is often linked to the risks highlighted in a driving assessment and not only addresses the driver's skills and knowledge but also how they interact with other road users. At AA DriveTech, we call this Driver ABC – Attitude, Behaviour and Competence.
We offer a variety of different training interventions for different business needs. This includes online driver education (e-learning), practical one day and half day training in-vehicle with accredited trainers and detailed post-training reports.
In addition, we can run workshops on different driving topics – fuel efficiency, speed awareness and making deliveries for groups of 10-20 drivers and from 30 minute 'pitstops' to 7 hour Driver CPC periodic training courses for professional truck, bus and coach drivers.
We also offer more specialist driver training focusing on licence acquisition for example, foreign employees relocating to the UK, as well as minibus, personal security, 4x4, all-terrain vehicles as well as road safety events for groups of employees and 'driver of the year' competitions.

The Giants then took the ball and drove 55 yards in eight play, capping the drive with a 16-yard Eli Manning-to-Rueben Randle touchdown behind cornerback Davon House and safety M.D. Jennings. On the next play from scrimmage, veteran cornerback Corey Webster came off his man (James Jones) and jumped a quick Rodgers pass intended for Randall Cobb and picked it off at the Packers' 33-yard line. Even though the Giants had to settle for a 43-yard Lawrence Tynes field goal, the tone was set.
The Packers went three-and-out on their next possession, which began with an 8-yard sack by Chase Blackburn on first down, and the Giants offense went back to work. A 25-yard Manning-to-Hakeem Nicks completion led to Victor Cruz's 9-yard touchdown catch, pushing the lead to 24-7.
The ensuing drive stalled out at the Giants' 20-yard line when tight end Jermichael Finley dropped a pass, and while Rodgers went right back to him for a 9-yard gain, the Packers settled for a 28-yard Crosby field goal that made it 24-10.
When the defense forced a three-and-out punt again, the Packers actually had their chance to make a game of it again. With the ball and 1:50 left in the first half and set to receive the second-half kickoff, touchdowns to end the second quarter and start the third quarter would've forged a 24-24 tie.
That didn't happen.
Instead, on first-and-10 from the Packers' 39, Osi Umenyiora beat left tackle Marshall Newhouse and forced a Rodgers fumble that Jason Pierre-Paul recovered. Two plays later, Bradshaw rumbled in from 13 yards out to make it 31-10 at halftime.
The Packers managed only one first down on the opening drive of the second half – on a 16-yard catch by Finley that happened after Rodgers was hit by Justin Tuck and the resulting fluttering pass went off Pierre-Paul's hands on what should've been an interception – and had to punt. By the time Manning hit Nicks for a 13-yard touchdown with 3:36 left in the third quarter, the issue had already been decided.
"It's one game," said Rodgers, who gave way to backup Graham Harrell for the final 4:53. "(We) had a good opportunity to put ourselves in a better position than we're in right now and didn't do that. We're going to be disappointed watching this film. (But) we have to move on.
"We've got to get a couple things shored up. When you win five in a row, everybody's happy but, like I said last year during the (undefeated) run, there's things that kind of go under the radar that need to be handled. Sometimes it takes a loss to handle those things.
"Now, that being said, I've never been on the side of this kind of loss before. But I know if you play long enough that at a certain point you will. Hopefully, we'll remember this feeling and not let this kind of embarrassment to happen again.
"We're better than this. We're going to regroup."

BOCA RATON, Fla. (AP) — Dave Dombrowski, Boston's new president of baseball operations, asked some of his staff to arrive by afternoon to get a head start on the annual general managers' meetings, which began with a dinner Monday night.
"By the time I sat down, they said, like, wow, we just got here and we're behind because we had had so many discussions already," he said.
Just eight days after the World Series, the offseason trade and signings season intensified with the start of the four-day session, usually a warmup to the larger winter meetings in December.
Since the start of August, new general managers have been appointed for Detroit, Milwaukee,...

Deer chases man up tree
Male deer turns the tables on man in London park
Published On: Oct 09 2012 09:19:19 AM CDT Updated On: Oct 10 2012 10:00:55 AM CDT
A deer turned the tables on a man in London, chasing him up a tree in a park.
According to NBC News, the man got too close to a herd of deer in a west London park, and one of the male deer went after him. The man finally climbed up the tree to protect himself and witnesses called police.
Mating season for deer has begun in London, and park rangers are warning people to stay away from the animals during this time -- particularly male deer.
The episode was caught on video. Watch it here.

What Would It Take?
I recently wrote a SkepDoc column on fantasy physics in Skeptic magazine in which I mentioned a study that had allegedly measured 2 milligauss emanations from a healer's hands. A reader inquired about it and went on to ask "what criteria is [sic] necessary for gaining acceptance in the scientific community in regards to purported healing processes using energy fields generated in the human hand, specifically the palm area."
What would it take to prove this implausible claim to the satisfaction of the scientific community? That is an excellent question with a complicated answer. It's worth looking at because there is only one science and the same standards apply to how science evaluates any claim. I'll take a stab at it, and perhaps our commenters can add words of wisdom.
