Reported by Martha Koloski | bio | email | blog
Sixteen-year-old Amy Stiefel says she felt terrible after receiving mean posts on her Facebook page. Amy Stiefel, "I just felt attacked by basically just a whole bunch of people for everyone to see." Devastated by the cyberbullying, Amy joined Love Our Children USA, a group that promotes Internet safety. Many kids are at risk online, according to a survey by Consumer Reports National Research Center of more than two thousand online households. "We project that more than five million kids age 10 and under had Facebook accounts last year, even though 13 is the minimum age that Facebook allows. And we found most of their parents did nothing to monitor their Facebook activities." If you have a preteen using Facebook, be aware parents can delete the account by going to Facebook's "privacy policy" page and clicking on a link to fill out the "report an underage child" form. Rosalind Tordesillas, "In order to protect your child - whatever their age - it's important to supervise their Facebook use. Become their friend and check their profiles regularly. You can also connect their Facebook account to your e-mail so you see incoming messages." Facebook users of all ages should use privacy settings. But one in five active members had not used these settings, according to Consumer Reports' survey. To set them, go into your account's "privacy settings" and indicate "Friends Only." It's also important to use the privacy settings on the Apps and Websites linked to your account. Rosalind Tordesillas, "If you connect your Facebook account to another site, you're allowing that site to collect a lot of your personal information unless you block its access."

Reviews for this host's other properties
Apartment fits the description!
Wohnung entspricht der Beschreibung!
The apartment was centrally located as promised and seemed to have enjoyed a cosmetic overhaul relatively recently.
The outside of the building and inside communal parts were not to the same standard as the apartment which was a bit of a let down.
The apartment itself was clean-except the windows - but noisy due to absence of adequate double glazing which is essential as it almost directly sits at a busy cross street.
We had a nice stay in that appartment. The location is pretty central and you can reach everything by feet. The appartment itself is small, nice and cozy The only thing we didn't like, was the very noisy first avenue, that seemed to run directly through the bedroom at night. We would book that appartment again.
The host is a rental, it is difficult to give an opinion. The keys were well post office indicated. No contact, against the establishment of a state of place. The deposit to be in the same place.
L'hôte étant une agence de location, il est difficile de donner un avis. Les clés étaient bien au bureau de poste indiqué. Aucun contact, par contre pour l'établissement d'un état des lieu. Le dépôt de garantie devant se faire au même endroit.
Everything is perfect!!
The apartment was fine and clean. Met expectations. Great beds and bedrooms. Toilet Paper and scourer were present and also two toasters. Location was perfect. Very centrally located in a nice street with several restaurants. Well recommended for 7-8 persons.
Het appartement was prima en schoon. Voldeed aan de verwachtingen. Prima bedden en slaapkamers. Toiletpaper en schuursponsje waren aanwezig en tevens twee broodroosters.
Locatie was perfect. Zeer centraal gelegen in een gezellige straat met diverse restaurantjes.
Goed aan te bevelen voor 7 tot 8 personen.
we enjoy your flat, very clean, no noise on the bedrooms side, noisy on the front side if some one has to sleep in the sofa.
the can opener needs to be change, and the bread grill works if you keep a finger on the button, the rest was fine,
we had the keys inside the flat waiting for us in the evening and a neighbour opened the front door for us. the east village is a cool place to stay, very closed to the subway, Great ! eric from France
the explanations to get the keys were good, the front door was missing, but the keys were gaved to us in the evening.
apartment very well located, very lively and very friendly. but small for 6 people. no storage in 2 bedrooms. therefore open suitcases in the living room. the apartment is very drafty and cold noise especially in the rooms. Because of odds and ends.
appartement très bien situé, quartier très animé et très sympa. mais petit pour 6 personnes. pas de rangement dans 2 chambres. donc les valises ouvertes dans le salon. l'appartement est très mal isolé du bruit et du froid surtout dans les chambres. fait de bric et de broc.
landlord is a company / no private person. Key pick up went as planned, quick responses to questions. apartment is well located (earplugs due. busy street) but sweltering and may use updating.
verhuurder is een bedrijf/ geen privepersoon. Sleutel ophalen ging als gepland, snelle reacties op vragen. apartement is op prima locatie (oordoppen mee ivm. drukke straat)maar smoorheet en mag wel wat opgeknapt worden.
We cannot recommend this place at all. We saw mice in the kitchen. Noice from the street was very loud and the bathroom was tiny. We met homeless outside the entrance to the house several times, presumably because it looked very bad from outside. Some things were either inexpedient set up or did not work.

Nazareth girl hopes to be 'Miss You Can Do It'
NAZARETH, Pa. - It's a one of a kind beauty pageant. The "Miss You Can Do It" pageant is the brain child of 2008 Miss USA contestant, Abbey Curran, who was the first woman with a disability to compete in a pageant.
Now, a young woman from Nazareth, Northampton Co., is headed to Illinois to make her mark on stage.
Victoria Gerstung plays the guitar and spends part of the day putting on makeup like any other teenager who just graduated from high school.
Now, Victoria is heading to compete in the "Miss You Can Do It" beauty pageant.
"So excited," she said.
Victoria, or Tori, to her friends, has been diagnosed with cerebral palsy. Her mother entered her in the pageant after reading about it online.
"She was like, 'I should enter Tori in it.' So she did, and I got accepted. There was a waiting list but, I'm in," Victoria said.
The pageant was started by 2008 Miss USA contestant Abbey Curran,
"She was an inspiration to me," said Gerstung.
Curran, also diagnosed with cerebral palsy, was the first woman with a disability to compete.
Tori has been spending a lot of time getting ready. Her mom is a former beauty pageant contestant, and Tori, a 2013 Nazareth High School graduate, is hoping the pageant will help her in the future.
"I'm hoping it leads for me to go to college," said Gerstung. "Because I really, really, really, would like to go to college. And it's just a great experience for me."
Tori has already competed in many cheer competitions, and she has the dress for the big day.
When she waves to the crowd on July 27, people will know what an inspiration this teen can be.

Mules are sterile due to an uneven chromosome count. There are have been a very few rare cases since the 1500s where female mules have been known to produce a foal when mated to a stallion or jack. Males are completely sterile, and as an old muleman said,"Ain't nothing meaner than a stud mule!"
Mules are commonly found around the world in any area where there are donkeys and horses inhabiting the same environment. Mules have been bred by humans for use as riding and pack animals, and for ploughing or any work one does with horses.
The mule's body type and temperament depend on the breed of mare and jack used. Huge draft mules are created by breeding draft horses such as Belgians to Mammoth jacks. They have the size and power of the draft horse with the mule's ability to tolerate heat and less feed. Racing mules are produced using Throughbred mares, and trail mules are often produced from Quarter horses, Paint horses, and Appaloosas. Mules come in any horse or donkey color or combination of both. A mule is easily distinguished from a donkey by looking at the tail. A mule's tail is haired all the way to the top like a horse's tail; a donkey's tail has a tuft on the end like a cow. They compete successfully with horses in all venues including dressage.
The mule has the patience, endurance, sure footedness, sense, and drought tolerance of the donkey, combined with the size, speed, strength and courage of the horse. Operators of working animals generally find mules preferable to horses as mules have harder skin that is less sensitive than that of horses, meaning that mules can deal with climate extremes such as strong sun and rain more easily. They require less food and water than a horse of the same size. The mules hooves are harder than horses hooves, and both the mule and the mules hooves show a natural resistance to disease and insects.

text: I've been thinking about the two-point conversion for a while and what it means for the NFL and game strategy. Peter King wrote about it in his most recent MMQB piece, so I thought it might be worth discussing here. Here's an article that uses stats from 2000-2009 (Advanced NFL Stats: Almost Always Go for 2-Point Conversions?), so we're missing several years' worth of data. I will work on the assumption that not too much has changed, so the numbers are still fairly relevant. Here are some interesting tidbits: "There have been 718 2-point conversion attempts from 2000-2009, including playoff games. Overall, they've been successful 46.3% of the time. But this is slightly misleading because it includes aborted kick attempts. If we weed those out, along with some other mysterious plays, such as Josh McCown's kneel-down while trailing by 5 points in the final few seconds of the Cardinals-Vikings 2003 game, we get a different answer. For all normal 2-point conversions, the success rate is 47.9%." Ok, so we start with a normal success rate of 47.9%. However, that can be broken down further into rushing vs. passing plays. 2-point passes: 43.4% success (525 attempts) 2-point rushes: 61.7% success (183 attempts) TOTAL: 339-708 (47.9%) If you weed out the QB scrambles/runs and just go with conventional running plays, you get this: 2-point passes: 43.4% success (525 attempts) 2-point QB runs: 74.5% success (47 attempts) 2-point RB runs: 57.4% success (136 attempts) TOTAL: 339-708 (47.9%) Now, what's clear from these numbers is that teams going for 2-point conversions throw FAR more than they run, and yet running is FAR more successful. So it is a mystery why they throw as much as they do. Other than that the league has become so pass-heavy it's almost their default position. Looking at New England's data from 2012 (2012 Patriots Defensive Stats, Breaking Down The Patriots Performances on 1st Down, 2nd Down, 3rd Down,4th Down and Total Number of Plays - thanks Ian!), we can see how the Patriots do on either 3rd and 2 or 4th and 2 situations (I want to limit it to those because 2nd and 2 is COMPLETELY different than, say, 4th and 2. 3rd or 4th and 2 is a far better comp to a 2-point conversion). Here were the Patriots' numbers in 2012 on 3rd and 2 or 4th and 2: 3rd and 2: 26 plays, 14 conversions (53.8%) 4th and 2: 1 play, 1 conversion (100.0%) TOTAL: 27 plays, 15 conversions (55.6%) So 55.6% of the time, the Patriots converted from 2 yards out. Since 2001, here are the Pats' 2-point conversion numbers: 2-point passes: 7-17 (41.1%) 2-point rushes: 9-12 (75.0%) TOTAL: 16-29 (55.2%) These numbers line up very well with the NFL in general. So let's put this together. The league as a whole converts less than 50% of their 2-point conversions. But the Patriots convert 55.2% of theirs, and 55.6% of their 3rd/4th and 2 plays. The Pats scored 67 touchdowns in 2012. Gostkowski has made 355 out of 356 career PATs, so let's just call him 100% at PATs. That means that the Patriots would have scored 67 points after touchdowns in 2012. But at a 55% conversion rate, over 67 touchdowns, they would have converted 37 2-point conversions. 37 x 2 = 74. Therefore, the Patriots would have gained an additional seven points over the course of a season by going for 2. If they ran it more, they'd convert even more, based on their past success rate. So the question here is this: Why don't the Patriots go for 2 every time? It doesn't make sense to go for two regularly if your success rate is less than 50%. But for the Patriots, it's greater than 50%. So it makes sense for them to go for it every time. Of course there will be failures. But they will succeed more often than they will fail, and that will be a net positive. Now I know Belichick knows these numbers and he obviously knows football far more than I do or pretty much anyone else for that matter. But the math here doesn't lie. Why do you think they don't go for 2 regularly? I know it's not orthodox, but that's never seemed to bother Belichick before.

Majority Of US Citizens Are Big Meanies, Want Illegal Aliens Deported
Well, the story doesn't actually call Americans big meanies, yet that will certainly be the viewpoint of people who support amnesty
(Reuters) More than half of U.S. citizens believe that most or all of the country's 11 million illegal immigrants should be deported, according to a Reuters/Ipsos poll released on Wednesday that highlights the difficulties facing lawmakers trying to reform the U.S. immigration system.
The online survey shows resistance to easing immigration laws despite the biggest push for reform in Congress since 2007.
Thirty percent of those polled think that most illegal immigrants, with some exceptions, should be deported, while 23 percent believe all illegal immigrants should be deported.
Only 5 percent believe all illegal immigrants should be allowed to stay in the United States legally, and 31 percent want most illegal immigrants to stay.
Put me in the category of deporting most illegals with a few exceptions.And making sure they don't come back.
As the article goes on to point out, American attitudes towards illegals has barely changed since the last amnesty push. Most are against it. It's only the political class that is interested in passing legislation that provides a pathway to citizenship for people who broke our laws and break the law everyday they're here. American citizens seem more interested in The Law than elected officials.

Gary Simenson has been serving as a member of the Campbell Emergency Management Police Reserve Unit since 1967 and is currently the Director of Emergency Management. Throughout his years of service, Gary has been instrumental in the community's response to several major floods and his dedication has been exceptional.
During the flood of 2001, under Director Simenson's leadership, a breach in a levee on the south end of French Island was discovered and mitigated, that nearly damaged a neighborhood with 80 homes in it. Emergency Management officers reinforced the levee with sandbags and relocated a pump discharge hose that was washing the levee away. A potentially large disaster was quietly resolved by Director Simenson and the Campbell officers in the middle of the night while Islanders slept.
Gary has been a longtime mentor, helping to train many emergency services and law enforcement members who have gone on to develop professional careers serving in these areas throughout the state and country. Additionally, he is the secretary for the Campbell Fire Department, a position he stepped in to after his retirement from Trane.
Gary truly enjoys giving back to the community he's called home for over 63 years and that is why Heroes Bar and Grill and News 8 are pleased to recognize Gary Simenson as the May Everyday Hero!

Idaho State Police seized about $30,000 worth of marijuana and cocaine after a routine traffic stop turned into a big drug bust.
Two people from Montana were arrested on U.S. Interstate 86 near American Falls: 20-year-old Joseph Bohan and 18-year-old Kelci Reynolds, both from Red Lodge.
Troopers say they pulled over the Dodge Neon being driven by Bohan at about 9 a.m. on Wednesday morning for an unspecified "routine traffic violation."
During the investigation, however, authorities say that 6.3 pounds of marijuana and 8.4 grams of cocaine were discovered in the vehicle.
Bohan and Reynolds were arrested on suspicion of felony drug trafficking.
The Power County Sheriff's Office helped out during the arrests.

Former American Idol contestant Clay Aiken hopes he won't be runner-up in his next competition. Aiken, 35, is setting aside his singing career to run for Congress in his home state of North Carolina.
The singer, a Democrat, declared his candidacy yesterday in a U.S. House district that is represented by a Republican. He will seek to unseat second-term Rep. Renee Ellmers in November but first must win the Democratic primary.
In a video announcing his candidacy, Aiken emphasized his upbringing by a single mom and his experience as a special-education teacher.
"So much of who I am was shaped in those early years, and it's part of why I decided to run for Congress," said Aiken, who has released four albums and starred on Broadway since he competed on the second season of American Idol in 2003 and placed second. "I'm not a politician. I don't ever want to be one, but I do want to help bring back — at least to my corner of North Carolina — the idea someone can go to Washington to represent all the people, whether they voted for you or not."

text: Myrtle Hill Cemetery Paranormal Investigation Unearth's Animal Mutilation Used in Santeria Ritual. myfirstnameisterry posted:1/23/2014 5:20:43 PM The original article, and more similar articles, can be found at The Agency for Eternal Justice's webpage. Reprinted with permission. Actual video footage from the investigation, including the 'findings of mutilation', available at the original website posted above. Date of Trip: August 10, 2012 Time of Departure: 10:30 PM Address: 4002 N. 50th St. Tampa, Florida Participants: Terry, Manny, Ryan, Keishla, Chris, Joey, Gracie & Mango Groups: Terry, Manny, Ryan = Group 1 Chris, Joey, Grace, Keishla & Mango = Group 2 Lunar Cycle: Crescent Weather: Fair, decent cloud cover. The Myrtle Hill Cemetery is comprised of several different cemeteries. We visited the older section (the formal Myrtle Hill Cemetery), the Garden of Memories, and the Centro Espanol Memorial Cemetery. Special mention is to the giant spiders that spin their webs around the trees that are scattered throughout the grounds. They are the size of soda cans, if not bigger. Also, maybe due to the rain, but a section of the older Myrtle Hill cemetery seemed to be flooded and bog-like. There was a sink-hole in the Central Espanol Memorial Cemetery, and several trees that appeared to be struck by lightning scattered across the grounds. Finally, while we did not encounter law enforcement officers, the sprinklers did a good job at keeping us in line. There were plenty of gnats, but no mosquito swarms to speak of. As far as haunts go, I was able to learn of a young cheerleader, who, in a accident crashed her car and passed away far too early. Many people feel drawn to her grave in the Garden of Memories (she is in the smaller Mausoleum). We brought a Barbie to use as a trigger object. Prior to the Investigation: I reached out to a paranormal investigator who had visited this site previously. I asked for some more information regarding the tragic accident of Stephanie and more information on where to find her grave. The following is this correspondence: Hello Terry, Thank you so much for contacting me. Yes, we do feel that Stephanie is a spirit at the mausoleum there. I have her last name on the tip of my tongue. In fact, I'm usually the one who CAN remember her last name, as often my colleagues tend to forget it. Ugh! How weird!! I do believe it begins with a "C." If I remember, I will certainly email you. I can tell you this though, I have been in touch with her best friend. This girl recently emailed us in regards to Stephanie and how she met her untimely fate. Apparently, Stephanie was driving home one very rainy and stormy night when she lost control of her car. She hit a group of trees. When she was found, she was draped over the gear shift which had impaled her liver, causing her to bleed to death before help could be given. Very sad, as I do believe she was only 16 at the time. Stephanie's best friend also told us a bit of info on her family. From what I understand, her mother once worked at Myrtle Hill selling cemetery plots. Stephanie's best friend does not deny that she is a restless soul. I know that I have felt her energy around me many times, and we have received high readings just around her crypt face. Now, according to her friend, Stephanie always loved playing with Barbie Dolls. I know she was a teen when she died, but she still loved her dolls. Her friend has mentioned bringing her a Barbie Doll upon visiting next. Maybe an idea for you all if you have one, or wish to purchase an inexpensive one? Stephanie's final resting spot is located in the Garden of Peace Memorial Cemetery section of Myrtle Hill. When coming from the highway (not sure of how you will be arriving), you will see the cemetery where Stephanie is on your right. There are three parts of the cemetery. The original Myrtle Hill section is on the left. It is very old and historic. I would advise NOT going to that one at night as it is heavily patroled by police. It is also the section that receives the most vandalism, hence why police activity there is so heavy. I was once told by an officer there that there are some "sketchy" individuals that roam the grounds at night and some like to even perform satanic-like rituals on top of the graves. So just be careful. In the section where Stephanie is located, I have never seen police, but that doesn't mean they aren't there. Sometimes the mausoleum is locked, so just be ready for that. I would say, 95% of the time it is not. You will see the mausoleum upon entrance; you can't miss it. When you enter, Stephanie's crypt face will be on your left. There is a picture of her. There are also niches in the center of the cemetery, which I would encourage you to check out. Had some amazing experiences there. Finally, do not leave without going to the far end, just past the middle section of the cemetery. There is a third section, the newest part, of Myrtle Hill. There, you will find a large, open-air style mausoleum. Some of my scariest moments have been there, and just outside of it. Once again though, there is some police activity in that portion…but, in addition to the "living" police officers you will sometimes find patroling, there are also phantom police. I have done some research on this and found there are some police officers buried there. Really bizarre stuff going on over there. Anyhow, I hope this helps you a bit. If you have any questions for me, please feel free to contact me again. Good luck on your investigation! My Best, Kim http://FloridaGhostHunters.org Group A Summary We first went to the Hispanic Cemetery, and were given the option of exploring the fields while the other group investigated the mausoleums. We were drawn to a grave of a child that died, named Nicholas. There were toys and teddy bears all around his grave, and we stopped to do some EVPs. Nothing noticeable happened. We continued until the other group alerted us that they had made a find. We walked across the fields, and came to look at a cat that was cut in half. We could not find the other half anywhere nearby. The cat tested at a significantly higher temperature than it's surroundings, and did not look like it had been there awhile. There was no blood or tears around it, so it looked like it had been placed there on purpose. There was no binding, though the cat's paws appeared to be crossed. From this point, we walked around the perimeter and discovered a large mound of removed Earth. There was a very bad smell that we were unable to identify. We also stumbled upon a sink hole in the far corner. We took our turn inside the mausoleum at this point. We each took our own hallway and tested for EVPs. Nothing to note. We then went to the Garden of Memories. We took our turn first in the small mausoleum with Stephanie. There was a corner of the room on the left, that tested at 83 degrees, when the rest of the room was testing at 87-88. There was no explanation for this. Also, we potentially caught an orb on camera when interacting with the Barbie doll. This is the video we collected: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xh90pBze3dU&feature=player_embedded In the video, an orb appears over the doll, and then travels left across the screen. There were no flashlights besides the one on the doll. There was also no outside interference that we could figure out. Also, we were unable to find the location of where Stephanie was laid to rest. However, after the fact, we learned that she was laid on the left side, which was where we were catching the colder temperatures. At this point, we did not know about this, and we left the other group to do their investigation and wandered around the cemetery. We checked out the larger mausoleum, though the doors were locked, there is an open area. We didn't catch anything here, but there are tons of spiders everywhere. After the other group was finished, we regrouped and went across the street to check out the older section of the Myrtle Hill Cemetery. There are tons of amazing looking crypts, but we did not find anything worth mention. There were a couple potential orbs, but these can all be explained in terms of having dust on the lens or a bug crossing the screen. There were tons of spider webs, everywhere. We each took turns running into these, and the spiders were insane. There are several chairs in the back portion, which is dedicated to the Free Masons. This was interesting, but nothing manifested itself to us. Group A Conflusion: The only evidence we were able to collect that would indicate a possible paranormal entity were in the smaller mausoleum in the Garden of Memories. We have all took turns looking at this video and believe that it has to be an orb. Also, the colder temperature has no explanation. There are no vents, and the door was in the other direction. Haunted? Possibly, but not by an evil spirit. Maybe Stephanie's ghost exist, but she deserves your respect. She was a young life taken far too early. The cat seemed to be an excellent find though. Cats have gone missing all over the United States, and many with the same purposes: ritual. Many times cats are used in curses, with half of an owner's cat being left for them to discover. Finding a cat in a graveyard means something completely different though. I consulted someone who had experience, and explained the situation to her. Below is the email I received in response to my question of what it meant: Terry, It could be brujeria. Im thinking an offering to the dead. That would be consistent with the use of a cat and the hispanic cemetery. Brujeria is the practice of witchcraft and involves the use of magic to appease and control the gods/spirits specific to the Brujeria religion. Brujeria combines many cultural and ritualistic traditions of ancient Aztec myths, European Witchcraft and Cuban Santeria with the Religious traditions of the Catholic faith.

Equal attention to Learning Supports is essential so that:
- Every student will demonstrate academic achievement and be prepared for success after high school;
- Every student will be supported by highly prepared and effective teachers and school leaders; and
- Every school will offer a safe and healthy learning environment for all students.
Bullying Prevention
Bullying behavior in schools can cause harm to students' social and emotional well-being and be a significant barrier to learning. Bullying can be defined as a "physical, verbal or psychological attack or intimidation that is intended to cause fear, distress, or harm the victim" Farrington and Ttofi (2010). There is a perceived psychological or physical imbalance of power and often times, incidents between the same students occur repeatedly.
Some effective school practices to prevent bullying include:
- reduce conditions that contribute to bullying at school (e.g., unsupervised areas);
- pursue school-wide approaches that establish a positive school culture and climate;
- build on the foundation of school-wide approaches in implementing classroom programs;
- intervene to turn bullies around by directly addressing motivational and developmental concerns related to individuals who bully and those who support bullying; and
- respond to any problems experienced by those who are bullied and those who witness bullying.
These practices can be implemented through a Comprehensive System of Learning Supports that promotes the necessary conditions for learning and addresses any barriers to learning.

After last year's successful run of Hyper Japan at Kensington Olympia venue in London, I was fortunate to attend the event as guest of Tabio (a Japanese socks and hosiery company). Hyper Japan was all about cuisine, culture and cool: everything that's creative, cute and crazy about contemporary Japan.
Face painting session.
Food stand selling handmade sushi.
Exhibitor dressed in Kimono. A stand selling dedicated Mangas and idol magazines.
Exhibitor dressing a girl in kimono, quite a delicate and complicated, step by step process.
Tabio stand selling their best selling socks.
Origami making and traditional calligraphy session.
Cosplay performance award and audience.
Cute animal backpacks.
I find the experience astonishing and inspirational, particularly seeing young fans dressed up in Cosplay costumes in fitting tribute to their favourite and identified Manga/Anime characters, they looked adorable. Japanese culture is officially cool and I cannot wait for the 2012 event.

P.S. Crawford needs to be named Mr. Big Shot!!!!!
Name him "Jamal CLUTCHFORD!!!!!!!!!!!"
wow one of the best nba games EVER, so many turns wen u though the knicks were gonna win the pistons came back and hit that 3 than u though the knicks were gonna loose and they come back and win, marbury 41 pts nice , NOW were gonna take the atlantic divsion
Your Damn Right!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Where my marbury haters at?? lol Naa but this was a perfectly coached game by the knicks. Isiah did an excellent job but the players probed the world wrong with the effort they played with to defeat the pistons. By the way...where is that Nets fan and the Raptors fan?? lol
With that said, I'm glad Marbury is continuing his great play. Lets hope he can keep it up.
I know this is really late but I want to congradulate Jason Kidd on getting his 80th career triple-double. Its a great accomplishment for him.
here come the starbury haterz now saying stephon should be playing like this. i thought we needed charlie ward's style in a pg? this is his style of play. this is why he averaged 20 n 8 throughout his career. between magic and clyde both talking to him u can see he's back. i dont think the east is ready.
but all n all this was a huge win for every player on the team. everyone played their role perfectly. were still undefeated when goin into OT. like i said we can be sittin 1st place going into the new year. bring on PHX and LAC... were more than ready.
oh yea fuk jason kidd
WAouuuuuuuu my gosh i'm soooo happy !! thx god Frye made it !
It's been a long time now since my knicks made me as happy as that.
Now it's really becoming interesting, i hope we can through the west coast trip nicely, coz if we did that's gonna be playoff time in april and may !!!
O... and btw, jason who ? ... can't stand the nets.

I'm so scared that he is going to start losing weight and that he is going hungry. I was wondering if anyone else experienced this too and how it went? Also, people keep telling me its a transition...well how long does it take for them to get adjusted ( i heard it was around 2 weeks)?

I'm pretty sure the "rumor" is just a reference to the Madlib/J Rocc mixup on that one music channel
Hahaha! Yeah there is no real rumor that Jason Jackson produced MV, just an inside joke around the boards after FuseTV posted a pic of J Rocc when they were discussing MV.

Welcome to the Forum for InventorSpot.com, the most popular invention related website in the world. Read our welcome message.
Moderators: Michelle, Scrupulous, citizen
Anthony wrote:Thank you Michelle. Prototyping was completely done in house. My partner and I were both recently in the powersports industry and together combined our knowledge into this product. I specialize in different types of welding and protoytpe fabricating and my partner Marv owned and operated a CNC machining facility that enabled us to take our design from original sketches and develope them into CAD design.From CAD design they are manufactured from a CNC machine(a machine that mills out a design from solid aluminum and various different materials). After many different protoype samples, the final design was agreed on and we produced a small run of approximately 150 of the DPX Drive Units. The bike shown on this post was a result of left over inventory from our previous powersports endeavers. That bike is a Taiwan import that we also aided in developing and have licensing rights for. Prior to it being powered by our DPX Drive System, it was powered by a gas motor. We figured instead of leaving them on the shelf collecting dust, let's retrofit them with our drive unit and use them for demonstrating our new product at trade shows and presentations. Also, when we do license a company, if they are interested in the drill bike application, we can supply them with approximately 125 units to jump start their market or use for advertising. So far, this whole process has been our baby. Besides our patent attorney, we really have not used any other outside companies for asistance. We have both been down this road before with different products and have both been taken for a ride at one point or another. Unfortunately we learned the hard way earlier on, this time we are executing our own plan of attack. We realize having a plan doesn't always work and at sometime we may need other help, but until then we are going forward with this on our own and dancing with the girl that we brought to the dance.
Anthony wrote:Wanted to share the latest DPX Systems video with everyone. This video shows a DPX drive unit fitted to a manual wheelchair for a "power on demand" use. This systems is very usefull for manual wheelchair users. They can use this system any time thay need a little extra help going up inclines,vehicle loading ramps, or when they just get a little tired of pushing. Hope everyone enjoys it.

KCNA-KNS via AFP - Getty Images
This undated photo released by North Korea's official Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) on July 27, 2012 shows North Korean leader Kim Jong-Un and his wife Ri Sol-Ju reacting after watching a performance by members of the Korean People's Internal Security Forces (KPISF) at Ponghwa Art Theatre in Pyongyang.
BEIJING -- Change in North Korea, and its potential impact on American interests in the Asia-Pacific, is likely to be on the agenda when US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton meets Chinese leaders next month on her region-wide tour.
Is the hermit kingdom, with its nuclear weapons program and a "military-first policy" that prioritizes its 1.2 million-strong army, capable of social reform?
Or is the latest staged-managed imagery from Pyongyang—of a Swiss-educated young leader displaying a stylish wife, giving thumbs up to pop music and promising that the belt-tightening days are over—a sign of a new beginning for the impoverished and isolated nation?
The buzz about North Korea's tantalizing hints of change has gained currency with the recent visit to China of Jang Song Thaek, the powerful uncle of the new North Korean leader Kim Jung Un, followed by reports that Kim himself is seeking to visit China next month.
China vowed greater support and investment in North Korea's languishing China-style special economic zones, and urged Pyongyang to let "market" principles guide its moribund economy.
But while signs are pointing to change in Pyongyang, North Korean propaganda was denouncing as "hallucination" any talk of reform, denying that the new leadership is breaking with the past.
Ezra Klein describes the mystery surrounding a woman seen accompanying North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, and new reports that she is his wife, meaning the dictator is no longer on the singles market.
Authoritarian dictatorship
As a neighbor and ally, China is sensitive to any shift in Pyongyang's policy directions that could impact China's interests. While Beijing provides Pyongyang with massive aid to prevent regime collapse that could cause regional instability, China is opposed to North Korea's nuclear ambitions.
"I think it's not possible for Pyongyang to sacrifice its military-first and nuclear arms policies, and that in turn will limit all possibilities for reform," observed Zhang Liangui, China's top scholar on North Korea who graduated from Kim Il Sung University in Pyongyang.
"I am not optimistic about reform because Kim Jun Un alone cannot decide, it will be decided by North Korea's political system which prioritizes the army," said Zhang, a professor of international strategic research at China's central school for training communist party officials.
"There is low probability of significant change," said Daniel Pinkston, Seoul-based senior analyst of the International Crisis Group.
KCNA via AFP - Getty Images
A file picture released by North Korea's official Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) on December 28, 2011 shows Kim Jong-Un and his powerful uncle, Jang Song-Thaek, at the funeral of late leader Kim Jong-Il.
North Korea's system is "structurally set up as an authoritarian dictatorship…as long as the Kim family is in power it will be extraordinarily difficult to renounce the legacy of his father and grandfather," Pinkston told NBC News, explaining his group's latest report analyzing the barriers to reform in North Korea's militarized society.
Ezra Klein describes the mystery surrounding a woman seen accompanying North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, and new reports that she is his wife, meaning the dictator is no longer on the singles market.
Preventing a Gadhafi-like fate
"As long as the Kim family regime is in power, they will not surrender nuclear weapons. But I do not see why this is an obstacle for reforms," argued Andrei Lankov, a Seoul-based Russian scholar on North Korea who also attended Kim Il Sung University.
"They will keep their nuclear devices, five or ten of them, for the deterrence purposes, just to make sure that they will not suffer the sorry state of Colonel [Moammar] Gadhaf i—while reforming the country if they consider that reform suit their interest," he told NBC News.
Lankov noted, however, the "destabilizing" effects of reform. "Sadly, the conservatives might be correct and I will not be surprised if the reforms will bring about a sudden collapse of the North Korean state," he said, alluding to the examples of East Germany and Tunisia.
"It is still possible to take steps toward the market without giving up the nuclear program, though you would have to limit military spending," according to Daniel Sneider, associate director for research at the Asia-Pacific Research Center at Stanford University.
But for Sneider, one issue is the challenge posed to Pyongyang's legitimacy by South Korea. North Korea used to be more prosperous than the South due to pampering by China and the former Soviet Union during the Cold War. But now, the North's economy is barely three percent of the South's, with half the population. The majority of North Koreans suffer from food shortages, according to UN reports.
"In the South, there is a wonderful example of a highly successful Korean market economy—the North claims to be morally superior and a purer Korean state, unpolluted by Western capitalism. If they go down the road of market reform, that undermines a central plank of North Korean ideology," Sneider said.
"The path of reform will be chosen by North Korea but China will certainly provide help," said Lu Chao, director of North Korea Studies at the Academy of Social Sciences in Liaoning province, which shares a long border with North Korea.
Limited risk
Lu, who frequently meets with North Korean officials and businessmen from across the border, detects Pyongyang's new focus on the economy.
"Kim Jung Un is focused on improving the quality of life, this can be seen in his visits to parks and artistic performances, in contrast with his father who prioritized the military," Lu told NBC News.
At least 169 deaths have been reported in North Korea during the past two months as flooding continues to cover thousands of acres of farmland. NBCNews.com's Dara Brown reports.
"Some reforms are going on in the country, especially in agriculture," he added, noting that farming reforms will pose "limited risks" to the regime.
For the International Crisis Group's Pinkston, US policy should remain "deterrence and containment while being observant".
"The US should monitor, bilaterally and multilaterally, the situation in North Korea, maintain a strong deterrence and containment posture, but be willing, when the opportunity presents itself, to engage North Korea if it changes its policy directions," Pinkston said.
Clinton is scheduled to visit China Sept 4-5, before becoming the highest-ranking US official to visit East Timor, which gained independence from Indonesia in 2002.
She will later visit the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation forum in Vladivostok, eastern Russia.
NBC researchers Tianzhou Ye and Lorraine Liu contributed to this report.

Compressor station planned for Hungry Hill; 15,000 horsepower compressor featured
The Millennium Pipeline Company, LLC plans to build a compressor station on 10 acres located in the Town of Hancock in Delaware County. According to information on the company's website, www.millenniumpipeline.com/hancock_compressor.html, the compressor will be located on Hungry Hill Road about 3000 feet from the seasonal and weekend community located on the shores of Lake Delaware.
Millennium says the project will have a "15,000 horsepower natural gas turbine-driven centrifugal compressor," which will be used to increase pressure in the pipeline through Delaware County.
The project will also feature a 90-by-60-foot building, which is 34 feet high, with one stack reaching up to 52 feet. The company projects that the project will become operational in 2013, and create between 75 and 90 temporary construction jobs. The cost of the project is estimated at $37 million.
Noise levels at the facility will be in compliance with Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) requirements, which include "an acoustically-designed compressor building to contain the compressor unit noise."
The announcement of the site comes after several media outlets, including The River Reporter, reported that the company had rejected Cochecton and other towns in Sullivan County as the site for a compression station because of resistance from county officials to the project.
The development also comes as a group of residents in Minisink in Orange County, called the Coalition to Stop the Minisink Compression Station, have launched a campaign to stop the construction of another compression station in their area, which has garnered a substantial amount of media attention.
Pramilla Malik, one of the members of the group, said that
local public opinion is nearly unanimous that the project should be halted, and over 800 comments have been issued to FERC about it. She said if FERC approves the project, the group will appeal in court.
The Hungry Hill site has been the subject of controversy in the past. When the pipeline was being expanded in 2008, a couple who lived there complained about various damages to their home because of the work. William Zelop and his fiancée at the time, Anna Andersen, said the work ruined their septic system, caused cracks in the foundation of their basement, and pipeline workers left refuse strewn about the property.
There were also reports of clashes between pipeline workers and local residents, but no charges were ever brought against anyone.
Attempts to reach Zelop were unsuccessful, and his previous phone number is no longer in service.
According to Sam Rowe, supervisor of the Town of Hancock, only three residents have expressed opposition to the project, which will have positive tax implications for the town, the Sullivan West School District and the Long Eddy Fire District.
An informational meeting is scheduled for May 29 at the Hancock Central School from 4:30 to 7 p.m.
No charges?
Seems to me I remember Ol' Bill taking a couple shots at the pipeline employees during construction of the line, he wasn't charged for that?! I think he was. Interesting though, a picture of him trespassing on Millennium property, thanks RR!

Hi, I have been reading and found some great info but not the answer to my specific question.
My daughter was born December 29 at 33 weeks. She spent 4 weeks in NICU and has been home now for a week.
We've been trying to go to the breast exclusively but I have some questions.
The discharge instructions said to give her supplemental bottle feedings 3x per day of similac neosure. When she eats from the bottle, she has great jaw and tongue movement but not always great suck. I have to take the bottle out of her mouth at intervals and let her stop the movement and relax a moment then put it back in and she will suck again.
When I put her to the breast, she takes it great and looks like she is really going to town with it. She will pull back herself and rest and then go back to it. She seems satisfied when she stops and often has milk drooling down her cheek.
I'm worried that she may not be getting enough at the breast. I don't know if she is really sucking enough to get what she needs or is it like the bottle and all motion?
I am usually able to pump after she eats and get a significant amount. She has wet diapers about every 2-4 hours but only poops once or twice a day. We have a doctors appt tomorrow morning to check weight.
I guess I'm worried that she will not let me know if she's hungry. I don't want to keep supplementing with bottles but don't want her to be hungry. Thanks.

Tower workers not clearing closure for landing
WILLIAMSTOWN – While the air traffic control tower at the Mid-Ohio Valley Regional Airport has been slated to close in May, those who work in and with the facility are willing to fight to keep it open.
"We will start a letter-writing campaign to the Federal Aviation Administration and the U.S. Department of Transportation and go from there," said local pilot and air traffic controller Mike Knopp.
Without an air traffic control tower, safety changes, not only for those in the airplanes, but also for those on the ground, will be necessary, Knopp said.
"The tower is the center of an airport's operations, whether on the ground or in the air," said pilot Jim Bennon, president of the Mid-Ohio Valley Aviation Association's pilots organization.
Bob Coulter, manager of the local tower, said with the closure of the local tower, air operations will be controlled by a facility in Indianapolis, Ind., through routes, but nothing on the ground will be looked at.
"I don't like to scare people with threats of impending accidents, but the whole point of having air traffic control is not allowing two planes to be in the same place at the same time," Coulter said. "Without a tower here, there is no one to say that won't happen and it is a shame."
Airport manager Terry Moore said he is disgusted with the federal government's quick dismissal of the safety of the country's communities.
"I'm pretty disgusted with the government and have no faith in their decisions at this point," he said. "They are closing one-third of the country's air traffic control towers with what seems to be no analysis of what they do or what will happen without them."
Moore said his biggest concern of the tower closures is the federal government does not appear to have a plan for the airports to follow once the shutdowns happen.
"It is disappointing how the whole thing transpired and that the (officials) immediately chose to close things when I'm sure some, if not all, of these 149 towers could have been kept open by cutting hours and doing other cost-cutting measures," Moore said. "I really just want to know what the plan is so I can figure out what to do."
For now, Moore plans to visit uncontrolled airports in the state to see how their facilities run.
"I'm working to find out procedures for non-towered airports and we will go from there," he said.
Along with the safety factor, Coulter said there will be delays in takeoffs and landings as pilots radio with one another to use an uncontrolled facility together.
"The tower expedites things and, when closed, this whole facility will experience a certain level of delay," Coulter said. "Things will have to slow down here and there is going to be a matter of waiting on the runways."
Knopp said the local airport is different from other small airports because of the variety of aircraft using the facility, which will likely fall off when the tower closes its door.
"Not only do we have commercial and small general aviation planes, but also helicopters, jets and military aircraft use this facility because of the tower," he said. "Many of these may stop coming if or when the tower shuts down.
"I really don't know how things will work without the tower because normally uncontrolled airports are single runway with only small planes and we are a multiple runway airport with a number of varying craft," Knopp said. "We are constantly watching the multiple crossing runways for aircraft and airport vehicles."
Moore said that without a tower to separate the different types of aircraft, it will be up to individual pilots where they go.
"I'm not sure I'm comfortable with that," he said.
On any given day the tower oversees as many as 150 operations of planes taking off or landing and vehicles driving around the runways, Coulter said. This includes the four commercial flights a day, which is roughly 1,500 operations a year. Comparatively, Moore said the airport in Bloomington, Ill., lost its tower with 15 commercial flights daily.
"Life goes on and I'm sorry to the community I was not able to save this tower for them," Moore said. "But the community and traveling public should not see the loss of the tower as a reason to not fly here."
The local tower is scheduled to close May 5. Others will close in April. FAA-operated towers will close Sept. 30.

Cliff Lee pitched a good game, but a home run given up by Antonio Bastardo in the top of the eighth inning not only stripped Lee of a win, but in my opinion severely lowered the Phillies chance at a win. Fangraphs had the win probability at 50/50 after Joey Votto's home run, but the game looked like it was headed for extras, and with a diminished bullpen, the Phils would've been in a tough spot.
But an eighth inning rally by the Phils propelled them past the Reds, 5-3. The win is a big one, considering the Reds were 25-16 coming into tonight's game and had already smacked around the Phillies this year. Additionally, at the time of the last out, the Phillies were three game back in the NL East.
Cliff Lee pitched well–a line of 7 IP, 6 H, 2 R, 2 BB, 7 K–but he also hit well. He got on base twice via a fielder's choice and a double, and scored both times. Sometimes, you get the feeling that Lee is seeing the ball better than some of the full-time hitters in the lineup. Or that he'd be a viable option to pinch hit at times. The man is a treat to watch.
His opposition, Tony Cingrani, pitched just OK. He tossed five innings while giving up three runs and scattering five hits. The 23 year old lefty held the Phillies hitless in the first two innings, and, aside from J-Roll's home run, actually threw the ball well.
Jimmy Rollins extended his hitting streak to six games with a two run home run in the third inning. He's hitting .375 over that span (24 AB) with 8 RBI. A significant improvement over his previous 40 at-bats where he hit .150 with just two RBI.
He also scored his 1200th run of his career with the home run.
Michael Young, arguable the Phillies best hitter so far this year, was 1-1 with a double and three walks. If J-Roll, Young, and Chase Utley can all get (and stay) hot at the same time, the top of the order will actually be something to fear again.
We remember 2008. We also remember 2009. And Friday night, Jonathan Broxton again came up short in a big situation against the Phillies. With one out and runners on first and second, in a tie game Broxton came in to try and get out of the jam created by Sean Marshall. He then plunked Delmon Young, and gave up a ground ball up the middle that resulted in no outs when the play at second was bobbled.
Then he gave up a sac fly to Carlos Ruiz (that was admittedly a blown call at the plate). Thanks, buddy. 🙂

It was a bang-bang play at the plate, looked like Howard got his hand in…until I saw it from the 15th angle in slow motion. At least it wasn't a blatantly bad call.
Regardless, scrawl another tally in the W column. 8-7 in May? Maybe this team will be alright.
Good effort by Lee in all areas. I'm really enjoying the way DeFratus is pitching. Hopefully, we can bring up Stutes soon and nix Durbin. I also agree if JRoll, the Man, and Young,M all get hot they will be a formidable triumvirate. Go Phils! Only three out, boys.
Right Eddy.. cannot say enough about how well DeFratus is pitching as well as Papelbon – what more could we ask?
Valdes down, Durby next, please….
Hate the sacrifice bunt play with Rollins up. The only time I would consider a sacrifice with Rollins up is if it was the 9th inning and the run would win the game You are giving up the possible home run or extra base hit when you have Rollins sacrifice. It's just not a good move.
I think Howard got his hand in there, but there was so much dirt flying I think we just have to trust the ump, he was closest. We didn't know it at the time, but it didn't matter anyway, Papelbon didn't give up any runs, so 4-3 would have been as good as 5-3.
Rube will always go with the veteran. Even if said Veteran sucks. I think for now RAJ is taking a wait and see approach before calling up Stutes. To add to the matter we have to wait to see whats up with Adams. We need Howard to step up. If he can or is still able to get "hot" then we might be talking. Its nice to see to see J-Roll get going.
3rd place team..period
Watching Howard, we all know he has trouble with slow stuff and his pitch recognition skills are almost non-existent. But I've noticed he cannot catch up to the big fastball any more.The d-backs abused him with fastballs high and in. I don't know if that's because of his injury or because he is constantly wary of the slow stuff.
He's just not seeing the ball for whatever reason. It has to be in his head – how do you look so good during ST and so bad when the season starts?
Well of course it's in his head. Where are your eyes? 🙂
Streak hitter..he will get hot again.
It's actually pretty easy to look good in ST when the pitchers are still working on location, trying to gain velocity, attempting new pitches, and many of them are just minor leaguers. The regular season can be a big change for a hitter because the pitching by then has improved greatly. Howard isn't the only one who's ever had a great spring and a bad April and May.
Where are the complaints about Utley who had two of the worst at bats you will ever see last night.
I said this the other day, he is doing himself no favor at all looking at every single first pitch. If I could find someone in Vegas to give me odds, I could be a multimillionaire betting on Utley watching first pitch strikes. He puts himself in his own hole, giving the pitcher an immediate advantage.
That said, he's had a lot of success in his career doing it his way, and no one can argue that.
I do not recall if this is something new that I never noticed before, or maybe they didn't used to throw him so many first pitch strikes. But certainly, SF, AZ, and the Reds have been repeating this latest trend. The book is out – he's going to take the first one no matter what, so you might as well throw him a strike.
Utley actually has been swinging at the 1st pitch more often vs. LHPs than vs. RHPs:
vs. LHPs: 8 for 46 = 17% (although less frequent recently)
vs. RHPs: 12 for 119 = 10%
overall: 20 for 165 = 12%
He swung at the first pitch in two straight at bats a couple of weeks ago and the sports talk shows were apopleptic about his lack of discipline.
about this "un-Utley-like" behavior, to be more precise.
88% overall that he won't swing? I'd take those odds in a hot second if I was a betting man. I don't think I know anyone who'd be dumb enough to take the other side. Wait a minute, Hey AFW, you around? Kidding, kidding just kidding.
Seriously, why throw him anything but a FB strike? Screw sports talk, great pitchers like to get ahead in the count. I maintain that sometimes- not all the time- sometimes- conventional wisdom is BS.
Swing away. 0-1 is 0-1 whether you look at it, or swing through it, or foul it off. It's still 0-1 and maybe just maybe you might square it up and hit it hard somewhere, because it could be the best pitch you will see in that AB.
Except that the two alternatives (swing/not swing) are not equivalent.
88% chance he doesn't swing, and you have an 0-1 count.
12% chance that he does swing, and he has a .545/.500/.1.273 line (1.773 OPS)
Well those fabulous numbers support what I'm saying then right? Swing away, Chase!
Swinging at 1st pitches lends itself to more pop ups..
Huh? I don't know if that's a Rollins joke, but either way, taking Rollins as an example,
first pitch: .331 avg, .847 OPS
all others: .261 avg, .745 OPS
Even so, he only swings at the first pitch about 20% of the time: 22% this year, 15% last year. Maybe he should also swing at the first pitch more often.
Good hitters know the strike zone (Ted Williams The Science of Hitting), and having this knowledge are successful even with 2 strikes..
Ok, sure. The average MLB hitter hit .178 with two strikes last year. The Phils as a team hit .177.
Yup..very few good hitters in the game today.lack of discipline.nobody will challenge .400.
"Yup..very few good hitters in the game today.lack of discipline.nobody will challenge .400."
That's way too definitive a statement. Even if somebody flatly said nobody will hit .400, let alone challenge it, it's way too definitive. While it's true that 1980 and 1994 saw George Brett and Tony Gwynn probably aided by missed at bats because of injury and a strike, I wouldn't go that far. You're probably covering several decades of the future in that period, and all it takes is one guy to challenge a high percentage improbability. It'd be a helluva boost for The Game, since it would probably be more authentic than The Homer Chase. But even that's assumptive.
Give me a name..Miguel Cabrera, Robby Cano are probably best hitters today and I don't think they get to .350. Boggs was another great hitter, took a lot of pitches.. .328 career avg

Hours after a North Korean general threatened to launch long-range, nuclear-armed missiles at Washington Thursday the United Nations Security Council unanimously approved new, tougher sanctions against the regime.
"These sanctions will bite and will bite hard," United States Ambassador Susan Rice promised.
The sanctions are designed to punish the reclusive nation for its recent ballistic missile and nuclear tests.
"The strength, breadth and severity of these sanctions will raise the cost to North Korea of its illicit nuclear program," Rice explained.
A program Pyongyang has refused to end despite repeated diplomatic efforts and multiple Security Council resolutions.
Thursday's action by the United Nations is stronger, making it harder for North Korea to finance and obtain nuclear materials, and comes with the support of North Korea's strongest ally, China.
Beijing may be changing its support of North Korea, saying they backed today's sanctions in hopes of getting Pyongyang back to the diplomatic table.
"I think there are signs that China is beginning to step up," said US Special Envoy to North Korea Glyn Davies. "They say they will enforce these sanctions. We take them at their word."
Strong words Washington hopes will resonate with North Korean leaders.
"North Korea will achieve nothing by continued threats and provocations," Rice warned. "These will only further only isolate the country and its people and undermined efforts for peace and stability in Northeast Asia."
