Finestrg for GM
I know they'd never do it like this but humor me for a minute.
Guaranteed contracts for next yr (8):
• 2 PGs (preferably quick/athletic, capable of penetration & transition play)
• A bigger scoring 2 assuming JR Smith bolts
• More skilled size/depth up front
• More overall youth & athleticism
• Try to convince both Kidd & Camby to retire (buyouts coupled with offering front office positions maybe?)*
Step 1:
Maximize the draft. Think about trading down and grabbing 2 capable players for our 1st rounder.
• Trade our 2013 #1 (25 range) & cash to Cleveland for picks 32 & 33 and select:
- PG Pierre Jackson 5'10" 180 (Baylor)
- PF Cory Jefferson 6'9" 230 (Baylor) or Adreian Payne 6'10" 230 (Michigan State)
• Our 1st rounder (and cash if necessary) to Philly for picks 36 & 41
• Our #1 (and cash if necessary) to Portland for SG Will Barton and picks 39 & 46
• Our #1 to Phoenix for picks 34 & 52
** if we can't outright trade the pick, make the selection for whichever team at 25 and have them do the same. Same thing.
Step 2:
Resign JR Smith (seems unlikely now all of a sudden) and Chris Copeland.
Step 3:
Consider signing any of the following to league minimum deals:
Marcus Cousin 6'11.5" 255 (currently playing in Japan)
Jordan Williams 6'10" 260
JaJuan Johnson 6'10" 225
Brandon Davies 6'9" 235 (BYU) - summer league/training camp invite
Jermaine Taylor 6'5" 210 (currently ripping up the D-League)
Jamelle Horne 6'7" 220 (former Arizona Wildcat, currently playing in Puerto Rico)
Scotty Hopson 6'7" 220 (former Tennessee Vol, currently playing in Israel)
Chris Douglas-Roberts 6'7" 210
Gary Flowers 6'8" 215
Austin Freeman 6'4" 230
Derrick Byars 6'7" 220
Sylven Landesberg 6'6" 210
Michael Loyd Jr. 6'1" 190 (former BYU Cougar/Midwestern State Mustang) - summer league/training camp invite
Curtis Jerrells 6'1" 195 (former Baylor Bear, Europe)
A roster I'd LOVE to see next year:
5 - Chandler
4 - Amar'e
3 - Melo
2 - Shumpert
1 - Felton
Marcus Cousin
Cory Jefferson (or Adreian Payne)
Jermaine Taylor
Pierre Jackson
Jordan Williams
Brandon Davies
Chris Copeland (or Jamelle Horne if Cope gets another deal we decide not to/can't match)
Scotty Hopson
Michael Loyd Jr.
Again, I know for a fact that they'd never come up with a blueprint exactly like this but I just wanted to point out that there are PLENTY of good viable options out there to get younger and more athletic while also increasing the team's overall skill level despite being over the cap. I was convinced before but never moreso than now since K-Mart came up with knee soreness that NBA basketball is a young man's game. I want a younger/more athletic/more talented roster next year to help us compete better with teams like Chicago, Indiana, Memphis, Oklahoma City, etc. To me the above roster has everything we'll need -- fulfills my younger/quicker/more athletic mandate; 2 PGs behind Felton that can continue to penetrate and play uptempo when Felton sits; 2 talented scoring wings in Jermaine Taylor and Scotty Hopson that can help replace JR Smith if he signs elsewhere; and plenty of youthful size, length and skill up front with Marcus Cousin, Cory Jefferson (or Adreian Payne), Jordan Williams and Brandon Davies to help us sustain a grueling 82-game schedule AND compete against the younger/bigger frontcourts of the NBA.

JaJuan Johnson is another big man we can add to the list. I forgot about this kid. Former Purdue Boilermaker/former Boston Celtic. Why the Celtic's (and the Houston Rockets too I believe) waived him, I couldn't tell ya. The sheer size and talent is there -- a long 6'10" 230 or so with a very nice inside/outside offensive game. He could be a capable rebounder/shot-blocker too if given the mins. He was the #1 pick in the last D-League draft but has since underperformed down there. One reason could be that he was traded a couple of times; another could be that he's only gotten sporadic/inconsistent mins. wherever he's been. Should've been playing 30+ mins a night...No matter -- I'm convinced he's got the ability to be a very capable NBA big man. Add his name to the mix of players we should consider inviting to SL/training camp and possibly offer a league minimum deal and roster spot to.

check some1 in Clipps just read that NO chemistery there Jordan is against his deicision with Del Negro [not many mins]and he is sick and tired of Him other have problems with CP3 that "his almighty" level of playing and decision making
if this is true
i dont know how many Knicks fans want CP3 in Knicks uniform but that will not only NOT happend + i dont want him in NY too persoanlly
If I remember right Camby's contract is only like 1 million dollars guaranteed team option per year. However, the way it is set up it can be traded for a contract equaling the full amount. So in theory that is a big trade piece that can be used to pick up somebody decent who a team is trying to shed for salary and Camby has enough in the tank for a team to risk it as well.
If this kid is on the board the knicks need to take him. He might not come over right now (though [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]) but by the time the 2015 season kicks around he would be a great piece to add to that re-tooled team. Its weird though the knicks know other teams will draft a player if they show interest so there is even more secrecy than normal on who they are looking at.
If not him then I agree with Finestrg trade down and try to find some roleplayers in the second round.

Greek Freak, 6-10 PG, Draws NBA Execs to Athens
Meet Giannis Antetokoumpo, a 6-10 point guard who already has signed to play professionally next season for Zaragoza in Spain.
Yes, a 6-10 point guard, a Greek freak of Nigerian heritage who could end up being a first-round draft pick after putting on quite a show in the Greek national junior tournament attended by Bryan Colangelo of the Toronto Raptors and Masai Ujiri of the Denver Nuggets.
Antetokoumpo had 33 points, 18 rebounds, 5 assists and 4 steals to lead the junior club Filathlitikos into the finals against Panathinaikos' junior team. It was a breakout performance from the child prodigy, who reportedly grew up living illegally in Greece his entire life after his mother emigrated from Nigeria. His 20-year-old brother, Thannasis, a 6-foot-7 small forward, also is considered an NBA prospect.
Oklahoma City's Sam Presti and Houston's Daryl Morey, among others, also have been to Athens to scout Antetokoumpo, whose contract with Zaragoza is said to contain an affordable buyout clause.
Posted this in my "Keeping JR Smith" thread also but he's an "option" for next year, I hope teams are scared off by the old JR and don't outbid the Knicks but I have been impressed with his demeanor and his numbers this season under Woody. ESPN's Jared Zwerling wrote this article on JR today.
What is the potential value of J.R. Smith?
April, 6, 2013
A 23.9 points average over his team's 11-game winning streak, including four outings of at least 30 points. And more than one steal per game during that span, as well as two double-digit rebounding nights.
Not only is Knicks sixth man [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] having a career year, but he's also heating up at the right time of the season.
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]
New York Knicks
Now, there's some talk brewing of what Smith could command in the offseason as an unrestricted free agent.
First off, it's important to note his salary situation. Because Smith has Early Bird Rights, the Knicks can pay him up to 175 percent of this season's salary, which is $2.8 million. That means the Knicks could offer him a contract for next season at about $5 million, and the agreement could be up to four years with standard raises.
However, another team with significant cap space can offer Smith a higher amount than $5.5 million, and the Knicks would be powerless to stop him from leaving. And since he's not restricted, meaning the Knicks have no control over his free agency, they won't be able to match any offer sheets to retain him.
The Knicks could have extended his contract at this point in the season, and gone over the cap, only if it was the third anniversary of his signing. What matters is that he signed last summer, and there's no way the Knicks can extend him this year.
With that being said, how much could Smith fetch?
The consensus from two agents, one NBA executive and a veteran scout is that there's still uncertainty over what he could earn because of his overall persona. Both agents called him "a wild card" for his past inconsistent play and party lifestyle. But his playoff performance could change that perspective.
"Other teams will be skittish because he is still a wild card," one agent said. "With the new CBA, I think he will be good for $5 million at the minimum. Maybe more if the Knicks advance."
"[A higher-priced contract] could possibly happen, but some teams may be afraid of him," the scout said. "Not a great history and you have to wonder what happens if he gets a lot of money."
It's worth noting that when Smith first chose the Knicks over the Clippers last February after coming back from China, it was a financial difference between $2.4 million and $1.4 million.
"Smith probably wants to start," the executive said, "but money trumps starting."
That money could come from the Suns or Hawks, two teams that will have dollars to spend this summer and could use an elite starting shooting guard to help them get over the hump.
In favor of the Knicks keeping Smith is his close relationship with [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] and Mike Woodson, who has helped push the 27-year-old into a Sixth Man Award favorite. In addition, Smith loves New York City beyond the court, from being close to home to the nightlife, and he's also seen a recent spike in his sponsorship deals (for example, SK Energy).
While the Knicks are currently the free-agent leaders for Smith's services, a deep playoff run could make things interesting.
PG Curtis Jerrells is a guy that I've always thought pretty highly of -- just saw that he resurfaced in the D-League a couple of weeks ago. Former Baylor Bear, he's since made a prior stop in the D-League where he dominated (Austin Toros) and then made the rounds in Europe (Serbia--where I think he won a championship in that league, Spain, Germany, Turkey). The kid's a nice little lefty scoring PG with good ability -- 6'1" 195, very quick, good first step to the basket and he's a good 3-pt shooter as well. He reminds me a lot of Brandon Jennings. Dude definitely has NBA talent. Again, none of these guys I'm mentioning here are probably star-caliber, but they're all solid alternatives we could add to the mix on the cheap for next yr. to help reshape the underbelly of this roster into something younger, quicker, bigger and more talented.
If Felton is our starting PG next season, we won't improve as a team.
Do everything we can do to get Trey Burke.
I have a feeling we're going to keep Copeland and bring Sims up from the D League those 2 will add some youth to our front court and will still be cheap.
As for Giannis all the guys who were scouting him go after the knicks in this draft. Except the Celtics who need a backup PG way more than the knicks. Arguably the knicks are the first team on draft night who has any need for a swingman forward.
Draft Express still has him going a spot after the knicks pick and thats after the number 1 euro player decided not to go this draft. EIther way who knows? The knicks will likely, wisely play this thing close to their chest since they learned after the warriors stole curry. If its anything like Shump they will find a guy early and ask him to sit out other team workouts due to "injury" once its over.

Teaching and learning in the 21st Century requires careful attention to the needs of 21st Century learners, as well as our rapidly changing world. Skills in communication, collaboration and problem solving are needed more today than ever. As part of our initiative to grow 21st Century learners, the Siskiyou Union HSD has positioned itself to begin blending in online learning activities and online courses for students.
For the 2012-13 school year, the Siskiyou Union High School District is in the process of working with teachers from our various school sites to develop a series of courses that will be available to students in an online format. These online courses will be available to students across the district as academic or elective options. The addition of these online courses will increase course options for all students and provide them with more flexibility with their individual schedules. Students will be able to take these courses as part of their regular schedule or in addition to their regular schedule. Students who elect to take online courses will still need to meet the minimum requirements of instructional courses that each campus must maintain with their students. Please consult with your site counselors or administrators to determine the configuration of your specific schedule. Limited space is available for these courses.
Our online course offerings will be designed and taught by our own teaching staff. They will include structured and interactive lessons, assignments, projects, discussions, and assistance with the course content and necessary skills. Students will be able to access these courses from school or home computers.
The following is the list of courses that we are currently planning for the 2012-13 school year:

When pool season ends, many parents believe the risk of drowning also ends, but data from the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) released today indicates 311 reported non-pool drownings from 2002 through 2004 of children younger than five years of age. More than 80 percent of these deaths involved children younger than two years old. The pattern is much different than that observed in pool-related incidents where children younger than two accounted for 38 percent of deaths (involving children younger than five).
Bathtubs were involved in most (71 percent) of the non-pool drowning deaths from 2002-2004. Many of these incidents involved caregivers leaving the room to answer the phone/door or to retrieve an item. In some incidents, an older sibling was left to watch a younger sibling.
"Infants and toddlers need particularly close supervision," said CPSC Acting Chairman Nancy Nord. "Drowning can occur within seconds in only inches of water, so parents need think of, not just the pool, but any water anywhere as dangerous."
CPSC recommends parents and caregivers follow these safety tips when children are around bathtubs, spas, buckets, or decorative ponds or fountains:
- Never leave young children alone near any water. Young children can drown in even small amounts of water.
- Always keep a young child within arm's reach in a bathtub. Never leave to answer the phone, answer the door, get a towel or for any other reason. If you must leave, take the child with you.
- Don't leave a baby or toddler in a bathtub under the care of another young child.
- Never leave a bucket containing even a small amount of liquid unattended. Toddlers can fall headfirst into buckets and drown. After using a bucket, always empty and store it where young children cannot reach it. Buckets left outside can collect rainwater and are a hazard.
- Prevent children from gaining access to spas or hot tubs when not in use; always secure with safety covers and barriers.
- Learn CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation). It can be a lifesaver when seconds count.
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission is charged with protecting the public from unreasonable risks of injury or death associated with the use of
thousands of types of consumer products under the agency's jurisdiction. Deaths, injuries, and property damage from consumer product incidents cost the
nation more than $1 trillion annually. CPSC is committed to protecting consumers and families from products that pose a fire, electrical, chemical or
mechanical hazard. CPSC's work to help ensure the safety of consumer products - such as toys, cribs, power tools, cigarette lighters and household
chemicals -– contributed to a decline in the rate of deaths and injuries associated with consumer products over the past 40 years.
Federal law bars any person from selling products subject to a publicly-announced voluntary recall by a manufacturer or a mandatory recall ordered by the
To report a dangerous product or a product-related injury go online to www.SaferProducts.gov or call CPSC's Hotline at 800-638-2772 or teletypewriter at

Herein you will find a tutorial on how to make
a delicious open-face tuna melt in the conveyor belt toaster pizza tots.
What you aim to get are warm and crunchy little bites of mozzarella and marinara goodness. Key words are warm and crunchy.
- Step 1: Get some tots. Look for the ones that aren't too greasy, because you want crunchy.
- Step 2: Get a separate bowl and go to the salad bar. Find the marinara sauce adjacent to the salsa (salsa looks chunkier) and fill your bowl with however much marinara floats your boat. You can also sprinkle some Italian herbs from the spice bar over your sauce.
- Step 3: Get a pile of mozz, and put it on your tots.
- Step 4: Go to a microwave and pop in the marinara. 15-20 second increments with stirring will get you the best results.
- Step 5: Microwave the tots for 15-20 seconds.
Now you are ready to enjoy some pizza tots! You can pour the marinara over the tots, or dip them individually, although the latter method ensures better crunchiness.
Author's Note: If you do put a tuna sandwich in the toaster, it will probably catch on fire. This will make you look like a DC hack.

- Title
- Activated sludge foams: effects of environmental variables on organism growth and foam formation
- Author(s)
- Blackall, Linda L.; Harbers, Anne E.; Greenfield, P. F.; Hayward, A. C.
- Abstract
- Actinomycetes that are implicated in foam formation in activated sludge sewage treatment plants were isolated from plants in Queensland, Australia. Foaming and surface tension determinations were carried out on mixed liquors from foaming and non-foaming plants and on pure cultures of the isolated actinomycetes which were identified as Nocardia amarae. Foam stability of mixed liquors increased with increasing temperature and concentration of mixed liquor suspended solids. The results showed that a surfactant was released by the organisms and that the bacterial cells were responsible for stabilization of laboratory scale foams. The nitrogen source for growth did not affect the foam or surfactant production, however, the carbon source produced growth form-dependent changes to the foam but did not affect surfactant production.

Guiding Light2 of 15
There are a few key elements to setting a romantic tone at home. Lighting is a biggie. When I talked to the team at Shabby Chic Couture in Santa Monica, I discovered these fabulous lanterns, which could be set in the bedroom to create some passionate (and body flattering) ambiance.

Fresh flowers are an easy and fairly inexpensive way to dress up the table for a date night dinner. I like picking up a bouquet from the grocery store when I do my food shopping — there's always something pretty at a good price.
Drink Up4 of 15
A nice carafe of vino is another necessity for setting the tone of the night. (And since no one's driving, you can indulge as much as you please.) Don't forget to pour yourself a glass (or two!) while you cook — that's likely the biggest upside of making the meal yourself.
SHOP NOW: Cost Plus World Market Decanter and Tumblers Set, $20
Listen In5 of 15
No romantic vibe is complete without some tunes. You may not want to get all Marvin Gaye-heavy with your playlist, because that can kind of force the issue. Instead, try for music that's mildly romantic (think Jack Johnson), which will set the right mood without the pressure to live up to those "it's date night!" expectations.
SHOP NOW: Bang and Olufsen sound systems, prices vary
Try It Al Fresco6 of 15
After a string of at-home date nights, a typical dinner can get a little ho-hum. Instead, create a feast of cheeses, fruit and fresh baguettes to dine on. Try spreading out a blanket on the living room floor and dining picnic-style or, if the weather is warm enough, head out to your local park.
SHOP NOW: Picnic Time Chardonnay Picnic Basket, $57
Morning, Sunshine!7 of 15
You can also hold a "date night" in the morning by cooking up a brunch for two. Getting creative with timing and themes for your at-home affairs will keep these special times with your guy feeling like treats, not chores.
Hit the Deck8 of 15
No worries if you get stumped while trying to think of original date night ideas. This pack of cards by TableTopics will no doubt inspire your inventiveness. Read through the suggestions with your partner or try picking one at random, if you're feeling spontaneous.

Soak It Up9 of 15
Just as you would for a night on the town, set the date night mood for yourself by indulging in nice long soak. After all, having an evening with your guy is also an opportunity for you to relieve the stress from your workday, your kids and all the items still needing attention on your to-do list.
All Dressed Up10 of 15
Believe me, I know how tempting it is to wear sweatpants when having date night at home. And I've definitely done it. But you'd be surprised how much your guy will appreciate the sight of you in even a simple wrap dress, like this one. Plus, aside from how pretty you'll look, feeling elegant will help set the night's romantic tone for you.
SHOP NOW: Afar Two Way Dress, $213
Fancy That11 of 15
If a dress isn't your style, wearing a pretty top with a pair of jeans will mark the night as special and non-routine.
SHOP NOW: Old Navy novelty tees, $10-18
Lip Primp12 of 15
If you don't want to put a whole face of makeup on, a light lipstick or gloss will give you a perfectly kissable pout.
SHOP NOW: Chanel Glossimer, $28.50
On the Money13 of 15
Just because you're on a budget, doesn't mean you have to always do date night at home. I use Groupon's smartphone app to find deals on dinner and entertaining options for me and my guy. Plus, you can often find discounts on everything from haircuts to dry cleaning, helping you cut back without giving up your lifestyle.
SHOP NOW: Groupon Mobile Apps
Sweet Nothings14 of 15
The idea of date night is to help you and your man reconnect as a couple but you don't necessarily have to go on a date to accomplish that. There are a number of ways to make your partner feel special. I love this cute pillow that has a secret pouch — perfect for hiding a little love note or gift.

Where's the justice?
Edison gets slap on the wrist for poor performance during devastating windstorm
By John Grula 02/13/2013
On Jan. 14, the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) released a long-delayed final report on the performance of investor-owned Southern California Edison (SCE) during the severe windstorm that struck Pasadena and surrounding communities on the night of Nov. 30/Dec. 1, 2011. During the storm, more than 440,000 SCE customers (households and businesses) lost power which, in some cases, was not restored for more than a week. The black-out rate in the San Gabriel Valley areas served by SCE approached 100 percent.
SCE's windstorm performance was so bad that the CPUC launched an investigation shortly after the storm ended. In stark contrast, the CPUC did not investigate community-owned Pasadena Water and Power, which came out of the storm smelling like a rose (so to speak). Even though Pasadena was ground zero for the most destructive wind gusts during the storm, only about 10 percent of its customers lost power, and nearly all of those who did had it restored within a few days.
Almost exactly one year ago, the CPUC issued a scathing preliminary report that found, among other things, that at least 20 of the more than 200 SCE power poles that were blown down or badly damaged during the storm were overloaded with cables and equipment. This means pole overloading was a primary cause of why so many SCE poles went down or were damaged during the storm. It is also a violation of state law subject to potential penalties.
The final CPUC report issued Jan. 14 was equally critical of SCE and also admonished the utility for destroying crucial evidence. In a Jan. 15 story in the Pasadena Star-News, Temple City Councilman Tom Chavez was quoted saying, "I am especially disappointed in the lack of preservation of evidence by SCE, which not only hindered the investigation, but could have helped in determining how to avoid future accidents." In a Jan. 16 editorial, the newspaper stated that "so much evidence was in fact destroyed that investigators were only able to fully reconstruct five power poles out of many dozens they had wanted to see."
So SCE was, at the very least, guilty of pole overloading and destruction of evidence. Both are illegal, right? But other than reporting these violations of the law, what did the CPUC do? Instead of penalizing Edison, it made six "recommendations" to SCE that included updating its emergency procedures, following a training schedule and testing its emergency response plan with a full-scale exercise on an annual basis. But these are all after-the-fact actions that have nothing to do with the illegal acts of pole overloading and the destruction of evidence. Where's the justice in this? People and businesses suffered mightily because of SCE's failures, but so far the utility has been given a free pass. According to a Jan. 20 newspaper report, CPUC officials have said they "will consider formal enforcement action and possible monetary penalties should SCE not comply satisfactorily with the problems identified in its report." Don't hold your breath.
The final CPUC report released on Jan. 14 was supposed to have been made public in early August (according to CPUC spokesperson Terrie Prosper in April). Why the long delay? Chavez blames the destruction of evidence for hindering the investigation. His point is well taken. But is it also possible the CPUC dragged its feet because it wanted more time for the public outrage over SCE's lousy performance to subside, thereby decreasing the possibility that people would notice the CPUC did not throw the book at SCE?
This raises a further question: Why did the CPUC treat SCE with kid gloves? It is pertinent to note that Michael R. Peevey, who has been the president of the CPUC for the last 10 years, is a former president of Edison International and SCE, and served as a senior executive there from 1984 to 1995. This revolving door situation casts grave doubt on Mr. Peevey's ability to adjudicate issues with SCE without any bias or conflict of interest. Mr. Peevey is also compromised by the fact that SCE, its affiliates and employees have been major contributors to the campaign coffers of Peevey's wife, Democratic state Sen. Carol Liu of La Cañada Flintridge.
Finally, Mr. Peevey's reluctance to penalize SCE for breaking the law may also have something to do with his acute awareness of the current problems Edison is having with its San Onofre nuclear power station on the San Diego County coast. Equipment failures at this plant may also be the result of SCE malfeasance. Repair costs and possible monetary penalties could approach $1 billion.
Nevertheless, until SCE is punished for breaking the law, we will continue to have more power outage disasters like the one San Gabriel Valley residents were forced to endure in December 2011.

I really hope Coachella is pulling something out of their ass come April, it seems they always have something that is a step above all other festivals. The undercard is very good, but the most surprising slot in the lineup is Phoenix. I've seen them live at Lolla and they have absolutely no stage presence at all and are extremely boring to watch. I do love listening to their records, but as a headliner is a joke. I have no idea how they appeal to people live. They should be knocked down at least 2-3 slots down from the top. There are far better acts to book.
Glastonbury 3 years ago. They got it right and scheduled them during the day.

Coachella 2010, 2011, 2012-2, 2013-2
I've heard nothing but good reviews about their live performances and the one time I saw them they were outstanding.
And whether anyone here wants to admit it to themselves or not, Phoenix is the second strongest headliner on the lineup. Their crowd will be bigger than both Blur and The Stone Roses and they are much more recognizable to the under-25 demographic than either of those groups.
This isn't Europe. In Southern California, Phoenix - in 2013 - is bigger than either of Friday's headliners.
Phoenix is gonna kill it. Straight up. They got tons of great songs, they've proved themselves live and as we all know, the folks at GV know something we don't know - they know what their production is gonna be & they've heard the album...it's all gonna work out. I promise.
Cooler than a polar bears toenails.
why are you so fucking hung up on the headliners?
December 10 - Children of Bodom/Abbath
December 16 - 18 - Day For Night
January 30 - Sleep
July 3 - Roger Waters
i still cant wrap my mind around people on here thinking arcade fire was a bad headliner
this fucking board i swear...
I don't think anyone is saying that. AF fucking killed it and won over all the nay-sayers.
Haven't given these guys a go in years and man I gotta say I think they are ready for this. Their songs are big and fantastic. Join the dance party on Saturday or fuck off.

Despite Washington, S&P Hits Another Record Closing High
The S&P 500 rose 0.7% to 1744.48, pushing the 2013 advance to 22%, its best performance to start a year since 1997. The Dow Jones Industrial Average gained a modest 0.18% to 15,399.26 while the Nasdaq surged 1.3% to 3914.28 as Google
For the 5-day trading week, the S&P rose 2.4%, its best week since the 5-day period ending July 12. The Dow added 1.1% and the Nasdaq increased 3.2% this week.
"Today and yesterday it's as if the budget [debt ceiling] was just a bad dream," John Manley, chief equity strategist at Wells Fargo who helps manage $222.1 billion in total assets, said in a phone interview. "The Fed's not going to taper right away, the market valuation at around 14.5 times is not overvalued and earnings are better than expected, even if not great."
China's third-quarter gross domestic product rose to 7.8% in line with expectations, showing acceleration for the first time in three quarters, and helping to fuel gains in Asian equity markets.
While the U.S. debt ceiling has only been delayed until January, investors voiced confidence that ongoing monetary stimulus rather than politics would drive market sentiment. Chicago Fed President Charles Evans said Thursday that the central bank shouldn't start reducing the pace of bond buying due to disruption to economic data during the government shutdown. Dallas Fed President Richard Fisher added that political dysfunction in Washington supports the case for not tapering in the near term.
Several investors forecast the Federal Reserve may now not reduce its $85 billion-a-month bond-buying program until early next year.
"We are entering a period where we see the end of macro [concerns] where Europe, the Federal Reserve leadership and the debt ceiling all got resolved favorably," Scott Ranger, chief investment officer of Ranger Asset Management, said in a phone interview. "Now the market is more focused on earnings - GE was pretty good, Google was fantastic and large cap equities are not expensive." Ranger recently moved from Alliance Berstein where he managed $14 billion to start his own funds management firm.
Google closed up 13.8% to record an all-time closing high of $1,011.41 a share after the search engine giant posted third-quarter earnings of $10.74 a share, beating analyst expectations of $10.34 a share. Restaurant chain Chipotle CMG was the top performer in the S&P 500 as shares soared 16.1% to $509.74 after third quarter profit rose 15% and net income climbed to $83.4 million from $72.3 million a year earlier, the company said yesterday. Intuitive Surgical ISRG was the worst performer in the S&P after the maker of da Vinci Surgical Systems reported third-quarter revenue missed expectations on lower sales of devices and related equipment. The Sunnyvale, Calif.-based company reported earnings of $3.99 a share on revenue of $499 million. Analysts polled by Bloomberg data were expecting $3.39 a share on $525.9 million. Shares lost 5.7% to $376.52.

PORTAL: An opening in the realm of the paranormal that's the gateway between one dimension and the next .A passageway for spirits to come and go through . I have come across a couple of these during our investigations .One would be the HAUNTED VICTORIAN MANSION in Gardner Ma and the EAGLE MOUNTAIN HOUSE in Jackson NH .I know sometime when we talk about PORTALS it can get a little far-fetched.Do they exists? I am a firm believer in portals do exists .Some believe that a portal is a gate way to heaven and hell . So let me ask you this , DO YOU BELIVE IN PORTALS ?Jaxerback posted:9/19/2012 8:34:46 PM I believe a type of effect can happen due to certain atmospheric conditions,such as electro magnetic fields combined with electrical storms. Sometimes a tear or breach of space time is the result. If we could reproduce this,anything would be possible.LincolnGenghis posted:9/19/2012 11:40:17 PM Well and the mathmatics and well thought out physics theories are certainly in place for black holes, worm holes, multiple dimensions ect...... so why not spiritual portals. It has not been proven or disproven up to now so it would have to be in the realm of possibilities.0x6a656666 posted:9/20/2012 12:51:47 AM I'm assuming anything is possible these days. I see the world as having an agreed upon framework how everyone says reality functions. And sometimes things just don't fit in to that agreed upon definition because reality is so much larger than that. Those things are known as liminal events, and we can call it anything we want...so spiritual portals? Why not?Orphen posted:9/23/2012 2:21:01 PM Portals could be real Look at the Trianon's case.gary107 posted:9/23/2012 2:32:42 PM people who are looking for "portals" are looking for a way out of this life, it is wrong to encourage this behaviour.Orphen posted:9/24/2012 3:26:16 AM You're right. We must not consider these phenomenons. Look on me, I focused on déjà-vu sensations and locked myself into a timeloop.Oddio Novidio posted:10/30/2012 8:46:09 AM I could put this in "Visions", but it is a vision of a PORTAL, so it belongs here I think. I could also explain more about my state of my last spring, but maybe later... for now, I will just say this was a VISION, it hit me, I didn't bring it on or think it up... and then I wrote it down. This is from those notes from last spring: "The Portal" - a "Vision" I experienced on May 31, 2012: At first I am in a dark, featureless place, except for one point of dim light. I move towards it, just close enough to get a better look. I see a portal, it is like a tunnel... the other side cannot be seen, but somehow I know it leads somewhere, to another dimension, where humans who have died can go... but they [we] don't ALL go there... it is like a choice [but I have no evidence of any other portals]. We are conscious beings, we can choose to go or not. All around in this darkness are "ghosts" - people who died and are "in between", like lost spirits, not sure if it is right for them to go into the portal. The portal, the tunnel, has a yellow and purple glow to it, but just on the inside edges, but the center of it is dark, as if I am too far away from the light source, and because the tunnel is not perfectly straight, as if it is "floating", slowly bending this way and that. The light is dim, like the light is being reflected on the inside edge of the portal, and not white light, the yellow and purple shades change slowly, gradually, they ebb and flow and mix together, very subtle. They purple becomes black sometimes. The outside of the portal is not visible at all from the side view, it just seems like part of this vast darkness I found myself in. But somehow I know it leads to somewhere "heavenly", but it is not heaven, if there even is a heaven, it is more like another dimension. These "undecided spirits" - I am not like them - seem to know it may not be right for them to go through. It is a good place to be, but only for the right kind of spirit, only for those who are "pure enough". If we ["they", no me, but us when we die] have not lived our lives in a good way, if we have hurt people, been greedy, followed our primitive instincts, then we are carrying too much "negative energy" and it won't be good for us over there, and it won't be good for "that place" either. I get the idea that these spirits are saying that they can redeem themselves over time, and become carriers of positive energy, and be ready for "over there" somehow. They are not sure how to do that though. I don't know if I am thinking those things, putting my own thoughts into my head, making up a "morality story", or if I am getting these ideas from the spirits, or maybe from the portal... it seems it is just "knowledge floating around there" and if I let my mind be blank, like in meditation, then I "know". Eventually I begin to drift away again, and found myself standing in the same spot where I was when the vision started. Please log in or become a member to add a post.

But, after reading the Sheriff's Corner dated June 6th, I must urge the Sheriff the find and correct the other peace officers who disagree with your actions. They are ether part of the problem or part of the solution, but they can't have it both ways. They need to realize they are in a supporting role for not only you as Sheriff, but for the community at large. I personally do not want to be on the road with anyone who is or has been drinking and now driving regardless of their age, race, sex or what their elders did or didn't do as children.
The law is very clear on minors and alcohol, and any law officer who takes their oath of office seriously would not have allowed those youths to continue on their way. It appears none of them were adult enough to own up to the alcohol being theirs, so it had to be everyone's. If any officer would have released them that officer would have added to the already huge national problem of Underage Drinking. The following are some facts that these officers may need to be reminded of from MADD (Mothers Against Drunk Driving) to consider before they catch and release any kids for just having a little fun.
Underage Drinking in America
· In 2006, about 10.8 million young people aged 12 to 20 (28.3 percent) reported drinking alcohol in the past month. Approximately 7.2 million (19.0 percent) were binge drinkers and 2.4 million (6.2 percent) were heavy drinkers. These numbers have essentially stayed the same since 2002.
· Traffic crashes are the number one killer of teens and 28 percent of fatal traffic crashes involving teen drivers are alcohol related.
· Alcohol is the number one youth drug problem in America and more young people die from alcohol related incidents than from all other illicit drugs combined.
· Parents are the most common supplier of alcohol to those under 21 and parents are the primary influencer of teens.
· Alcohol use during the teen years, particularly when such use is heavy enough to result in withdrawal symptoms upon cessation of drinking, negatively impacts memory and attention, abilities necessary for negotiating the tasks of adolescence and successfully making the transition into adulthood.
· Underage drinking costs American taxpayers approximately $61.9 billion annually. (above stats are from sources located at www.madd.org)
I can only hope one day soon Goliad can come together again, support each other and become that quaint small town people want to live in.

For the past few weeks my lo (5 wks) has only been eating on one side. Originally we started it because of OALD, and then it just kind of stuck. She never wanted to nurse more than 10 minutes on the side, but she has awesome diapers and weight gain. Well now she sometimes will nurse on both sides. So what I am wondering is that lately she needs to burp after 5 minutes on the first side, should I switch to the other side after she burps? Or should I put her back on the same side so she gets enough hind milk??
Oh and, will it get to a point where I won't have to try so hard to get her to latch right? Will she at some point get old enough to latch on herself, or does that not happen??
One more thing, she has been going sometimes 4 hours during the day without feeding, and last night she went 6 hours at night (7:30 pm- 1:30 am). Is this ok? Should I just consider myself lucky? She has only been doing this since yesterday, so I don't know about her weight gain, but her diapers seem normal.

I cannot emphasise how meaningful this album is to me. From the ferociously heavy starter to the beautifully structured and written 'The Truth Famine', 'POTPL' begs to be heard at least once. If you dislike it still, it's your loss. Fuck arkona, finntroll,turisas, korpiklaani, etc. Skyclad are the real deal.

The board scheduled the hearing when it met on Wednesday, Aug. 6. Anyone who has anything to say about a proposed tax rate is urged to be at the Aug. 27 session.
The board also heard a brief financial report during the meeting and voted to elect Jim Crumrine as its chairman and Bill Stockton as its vice chairman.
The board indicated in a resolution that it would like to annex certain new areas of the city to comply with its official taxation boundaries.
That annexation recently was recommended by former interim City Manager Marvin Townsend.
Townsend currently is contracted with the city to study its water development alternatives. During the meeting, Townsend outlined the recommendations he had provided for the City Council last month.

A New Jersey State Prison inmate is refusing to eat in protest of what he calls "unfair punishment."
William Lecuyer, who is serving a 22-year sentence for armed robberies in 2000, has not eaten solid food since March 2012, the Star Ledger reports.
What he is protesting is a disciplinary charge that occurred in 2011, when he claims he was unfairly sentenced to four months of solitary confinement for denying a urine sample to detect drugs. Lecuyer says he never refused the sample, but was given solitary confinement nonetheless.
Lecuyer believes the Department of Corrections' logbook will prove his story, but New Jersey guidelines prevent him from accessing the logbook.
Lecuyer has vowed to live off about one nutritional drink a week and occasional intravenous solutions. One year after the hunger strike began, photos of his 100-lb. weight loss and his diminishing condition are alarming officials and Lecuyer's family, but the inmate refuses to give up the fight, according to the Star Ledger.

Alumni Membership Types
We invite you to become part of an exceptional group!
We offer two types of membership.
Annual Membership
In an effort to provide better resources and services to more of our alumni, we made some exciting, positive changes to our Annual Sustaining Membership program. These changes are officially available.
In years past, Annual Sustaining Members have supported the university through an annual membership fee (or gift) of $35 for a single membership, or $50 for a joint membership. These membership fees went directly to the Alumni Association to provide programs, events and resources for Aggie alumni around the world.
With the change in our Annual Membership Program, members now have the opportunity to choose the area to which they would like their gift donated. For example, if you are interested in supporting the arts, you could make an annual gift to the Caine College of the Arts, and with that gift, also receive an annual membership with the USU Alumni Association, including all the associated benefits. Of course, you also have the option to continue directing your annual gift to the Alumni Association.
Lifetime Membership
All proceeds from Lifetime Memberships will still go directly to the Alumni Association to support scholarships, Homecoming, Student Alumni Association, the development of state, regional, national and international Aggie representative programs, resources for the Career Aggie Network, alumni events, grassroots advocacy on behalf of the university and higher education and many other services that promote the excellence of Utah State University. As a result, this change will make our Lifetime Members an even more crucial component to the continued success of the Alumni Association.
Lifetime Members are part of the association's closest group of friends and benefactors. With that honor comes a number of exclusive benefits available to this group only. In the past, some of those benefits were also available to Annual Members, but that will no longer be the case. Examples of those benefits include
- the annual alumni calendar (this will be available to purchase for non-Lifetime members)
- admission to alumni pre-game events
- 25% discount to Partners In Business conferences

Every Lifetime Member receives a granite Legacy Brick engraved with a customized message. Legacy Bricks are displayed in either the front walkway or courtyard of the David B. Haight Alumni Center. A Legacy Brick form will be sent to you with your membership packet upon receipt of your first installment.
Exclusive Gift for Lifetime Members
Receive an exclusive gift when you sign up for your Lifetime Membership.
Annual Alumni Calendar
As a Lifetime Member, you will also receive our annual USU Alumni Calendar. This gift used to be available to both our Annual and Lifetime Members, but after July 1, 2013 it will be a benefit exclusive to Lifetime Members.
The calendar will also be made available to purchase for non-Lifetime Members
25% Discount to Partners In Business Conferences
Lifetime Members also receive a 25% percent discount to attend the Partners In Business Conferences held each year by the Jon M. Huntsman School of Business. These outstanding conferences have been providing top-performing students and professionals with high-quality networking and development opportunities for more than 40 years.

Baby-sitter pleads no contest to abuse charge
MARTINSBURG – A Martinsburg man accused of sexually abusing a 7-year-old girl he was supposed to be baby-sitting pleaded no contest Monday to one count of felony first-degree sexual abuse of a child under the age of 12 as part of a plea agreement.
Vincent C. Crabill Jr., 21, of Janesa Drive, was originally indicted in May 2012 by a Berkeley County grand jury on one count of first-degree sexual abuse and an additional sexual abuse-related count.
The remaining count of his indictment was dismissed as part of the plea agreement he accepted. He faces five to 25 years in prison on the first-degree sexual abuse conviction and will be required to register for life as a sex offender with the state's sex offender registry.
A sentencing hearing will be held after the completion of a diagnostic evaluation of Crabill that was ordered Monday by West Virginia 23rd Judicial Circuit Judge Christopher C. Wilkes. Crabill was remanded to the custody of the West Virginia Division of Corrections to await the evaluation and sentencing.
According to court records, on Dec. 30, 2011, officers responded to an apartment in Martinsburg for a sexual abuse complaint. The victim's mother told police that Crabill had been baby-sitting her children that evening. When she arrived home, Crabill left and her daughter began acting strangely. When the victim's mother asked the child what was wrong, she indicated that Crabill had touched her inappropriately, records show.
The victim later underwent a forensic interview at the Child Advocacy Center in Martinsburg and disclosed that she had been sexually abused by Crabill. She told the interviewer that Crabill was watching her and her sister while her mother was out and that he touched her inappropriately after entering her bedroom.
On Jan. 9, 2012, Detective J.D. Luciano of the Martinsburg Police Department interviewed Crabill about the incident. Crabill initially claimed that he touched the girl accidentally.
Earlier in the investigation, the victim's mother provide police with text messages she had received from Crabill a day after the incident was reported. In one text message, he said he was sorry and that he didn't want to go prison. When asked about the text message, Crabill told police that he told her he was sorry it happened and that he didn't have a chance to tell her it was "an accident," records show.
During a subsequent voice stress analysis examination conducted by police, Crabill confessed to touching the victim on purpose. He told police he was curious about touching the girl and wanted to see what she would do. He said the touching lasted about 10 to 15 seconds and said he stopped because he felt it was wrong, cruel and hateful, records show.

Much to my delight, the CPC Radio Club is being ravamped! Be prepared for some student shows coming to you via online streaming, and keep a heads up for a concert even that's in the works. It's going to be EPIC and beyond your wildest dreams! I remember the early days of CPC Radio when me and a handful of others were building it from scratch and learning all the tricks of the trade, in addition to some of the trials and tribulations… but we ironed out everything and really sunk our teeth into the lands of internet radio and self-produced concerts.
Also, there's a pretty snazzy article in the current issue of Animation Magazine that tells the tale of Project X's last film, "The Offering." I personally didn't work on it, but a ton of my friends did, so I have to represent. Go read it, see the trailer, and get stoked!

Native Hawaiians are overrepresented in prison and in every other stage of the criminal justice system. That's according to a recent study by the Office of Hawaiian Affairs and Justice Policy Institute.
Click here for the full report.
A nine-member task force has announced 38 recommendations aimed at making significant changes to the problem.
In a recent study by OHA, Native Hawaiians make up 40 percent of those incarcerated and typically spend more time in jail.
"This is a tragic reality that cannot be denied," said Michael Broderick, chairman of the Native Hawaiian Justice Task Force.
"Is this a priority for the legislature? If it's a priority for the legislature, they will fund it."
- Michael Broderick, Native Hawaiian Justice Task Force chairman
In an effort to turn the numbers around, the state legislature created a Native Hawaiian Justice Task Force.
Statewide meetings over the summer and interviews with inmates were compiled into a 28-page report.
"Our report, although a good start, is just that. A good start," said Broderick.
Among the 38 recommendations:
- Mandatory training on what was called "unconscious bias" for all employees in the criminal justice system.
- Early intervention programs for Native Hawaiians that start with the children of incarcerated parents.
- The creation and maintenance of an inventory of services that address mental health, substance abuse, workforce development and housing.
"If appropriate programs are in place, we believe we can lower the recidivism and reduce the cost to taxpayers of the criminal justice system," said Kamana'opono Crabbe, CEO at the Office of Hawaiian Affairs.
To answer the question of why there are so many Native Hawaiians in prison, the task force recommends an in-depth study.
"The legislature should give needed resources to the Department of Attorney General to study criminal history and criminal offense," said Broderick.
As for how the recommendations will be implemented, the task force said it's up to state lawmakers.
"Is this a priority for the legislature? If it's a priority for the legislature, they will fund it," said Broderick.
OHA has committed to support the work of the Task Force, but said the entire community must get involved to make a difference.
The recommendations will be presented to the Hawaii legislature this upcoming session.

Union, Allegiant agree on attendants for HI routes
Published On: Feb 05 2013 03:42:40 PM PST
A flight attendants union says it has agreed with Allegiant Air on attendants for routes between Honolulu and other cities.
Transport Workers Union Local 577 said Tuesday that the agreement covers flights between Boise, Idaho, Phoenix and Spokane.
The union says Allegiant originally wanted to use part-time flight attendants to cover the routes, but changed its mind and is now hiring attendants based in Honolulu to fly the new routes as well as existing routes to California and elsewhere.
Hawaii law requires companies to provide health benefits for companies who work more than 20 hours each week.

Voucher Guarantee
Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
GrabOne's Voucher Guarantee means missing out on claiming your deal in time no longer means losing out altogether!
How does it work?
- A voucher is valid up to and including the expiry date stated.
- If you don't use your voucher before that date for whatever reason, it can still be used towards that service with that business for an additional 30 days.
For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still use the amount you paid for the voucher towards a bungy jump, for another 30 days.
A few things to note:
- The GrabOne Voucher Guarantee does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- It's always best to use your voucher before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your vouchers are about to expire.
- During the extended Voucher Guarantee period, your voucher can only be put towards the service stated on the voucher.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the Voucher Guarantee can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- The conditions on your voucher still apply during the Voucher Guarantee period.
