text: Think both are a no but could bne wrong, pretty sure Camby was already ruled out of first 2 preseason games, and Stat said he could play if needed but it's just preseason so he's not going to, they are trying to break up the blood in the knee... hate to be a dick cuz I agree with the "it's just preseason lets not risk anything" thought, but dude, you banged knees, it hurts, we've all been there, but we all swore, got up and played on. I don't want him hurt, but feel these games are valuable developing chemistry in standings free settings. If he doesn't get his bitch ass in there we'll have great chemistry without Stat, then back to the old "oh now stats back how do we incorporate him without sacrificing whats been going good"

Royals' Intrasquad Games Best Chance to See a Royals WIN!
Sometimes I worry that I beat the same tired joke into the ground, causing dear readers galore to groan, growl and grow weary of my tasteless ways.
And then I will run across a headline, like this one on MLB.com, and realize that all of my spew is actually rim-shot-worthy material just writing itself at tremendous speed. The part I play is actually quite minuscule as I am merely an ebullient conduit for said spew. Any negative repercussions are clearly someone else's fault (I'm the oldest of seven kids, so I'm an expert at redirecting blame).
But to be perfectly clear, I do not want to be the Matt Drudge of Major League Baseball — one who takes simple news stories with rigid headlines and turns them into bits of sultry, one-sided crap by reconstructing their titles with right wing conservative Christian buzz words in large red font with quotation marks ad nauseum (this is also known as fear mongering). If I may be trite, a news story is what it is.
And the Royals are what they are, with or without my chiding.
So let's face it: the Royals are an abomination. They may not be on the exact level of abomination as the Pirates, but they are close behind. Just look at the rosters for those two intrasquad teams mentioned in the linked article:
Team 1: Scott Podsednik, LF; Chris Getz, 2B; David DeJesus, RF;
Josh Fields, 3B; Rick Ankiel, CF; Alberto Callaspo, 2B; Wilson Betemit,
DH; Ernesto Mejia, 1B; Brayan Pena, C.
Team 2: Mitch Maier, LF; Jason Kendall, C; Billy Butler, 1B;
Jose Guillen, RF; Alex Gordon, 3B; Scott Thorman, DH; Mike Aviles, 2B;
Brian Anderson, CF; Yuniesky Betancourt, SS.
Now, tell me you aren't laughing as hard as I am.
Was that a bit harsh?
I don't know. Isn't it a bit harsh on the five or six fans left in Kansas City to know that their big offseason acquisitions include an old guy who used to run well, a walking concussion who can't hit a breaking ball and another old guy who… well, okay, Jason Kendall might teach those kids something… but Wilson Betemit!?! WTF!?!?
All jokes aside, I can tell you this: there was a time when Royals baseball invoked fear in the minds of all opponents. Nowadays the only thing invoked by the Kansas City Royals is a quick change of the channel.
Don't hate me 'cuz I'm right.

Who do you think will win the intersquad game? I'm guessing the Royals but that's just an opinion.🙂
I like teams like the Royals…they make my team look good.
at least the Bucs are first in something. ill take that abominination tag!
You writing about how bad the Royal's are ='s me looking forward to another possible good year from the White Sox's. Now if only the Tiger's and the Twin's would wave the white flag in spring training,we could have our AL Central Champs shirts made up by the AllStar break!! I left the Indian's out on purpose. There not going to be any good this year either.
Mike :}
I remember the Royals' glory days very well. At one time I thought the Royals and Dodgers might meet in the World Series, and it got close a few times. I guess that really dates me! 🙂
Ted — LOL. I think they both lost.
Cici — I hear ya. They make mine look really good.
Matt — That's the spirit!
Julia — Fuhgettaboutit!
Mike — You're right… like I said before, I think the Twins are all the Sox need worry about this year. The Indians have a lot of prospects… so maybe 3-4 years before they scare anyone again.
Cat — Uh…. I know it's not. Even the Royals know it's not. I'm sorry, but ya can't win in the Major Leagues with that lineup.
Blue Eyes — Those were the days… yep…. not too far out of my lifetime.
I lived in Kansas for a couple of years, okay was in Wichita but even so the college basketball KU had more fans than the Royals. Though it'll be another good year to see the Indians and Royals fight for last place…
Outside the Phillies Looking In
Peter — Agreed. Wait, they play basketball at KU? Haha.
Jane — Yep. I'm also the only boy. So there ya have it🙂
I love when the Royals play Boston… Except when the Royals win. They make the Rays look good too. And Baltimore.
I too remember the glory days of the Royals. Maybe with the new comish we'll get more team competitiveness. I can hope, can't I. In the meantime, all teams are in first place.
Holly — Yep. And the Redbirds have to play them two series a year, to satisfy the made-up-rivalry people at MLB who think an I-70 series matters (it doesn't).
Emma — Two words: George Brett. And those days are long gone.

I wasn't really planning to post this recipe so soon, but then I realized it would be fun to follow the announcement of my new slow cooker site with a slow cooker recipe on Kalyn's Kitchen! And this Slow Cooker Kielbasa and White Bean Stew with Tomatoes and Spinach will become a recipe template for many more dishes in the future, since the recipe starts with dried beans that are cooked with broth, onions, tomatoes, and spices for 8-10 hours in the slow cooker until the beans are creamy and soft.
I had always heard that tomatoes will cause beans not to soften, but apparently a long cooking time will overcome that, because the beans in this dish were amazing. I added the sausage at the very beginning with the beans, but next time if I was home I'd probably add that halfway through the cooking time so the sausage was a little firmer. Then stir in some chopped spinach at the end and you have a delicious dinner.
Slow Cooker Kielbasa and White Bean Stew with Tomatoes and Spinach
(Makes about 6 generous servings; recipe adapted slightly from Real Simple Magazine.)
I used my Crock-Pot 3-1/2-Quart Slow Cooker for this recipe.
1 lb. (2 cups) dried small white beans
1 onion, chopped into fairly small pieces
1 T finely minced garlic
1 tsp. dried rosemary, crushed
1/2 tsp. dried thyme, crushed
6 cups homemade chicken stock or canned chicken broth
1 can (14.5 oz.) petite dice tomatoes
14 oz. Kielbasa sausage, cut into half-moon slices (use low-fat turkey Kielbasa for South Beach Diet)
4 packed cups fresh spinach, coarsely chopped
freshly grated Parmesan cheese for serving (optional)
Pick over the beans, removing any broken ones, and add beans to the slow cooker. Chop onion, mince the garlic, and crush the spices with a mortar and pestle (or meat mallet) and add to the slow cooker. Add the chicken stock and diced tomatoes to the slow cooker and start to cook on low.

"Barriers to Acting in Time on Energy and Strategies for Overcoming Them"
Book Chapter, Acting in Time on Energy Policy, pages 162-181
May 2009
Author: Max H. Bazerman
Belfer Center Programs or Projects: Energy Technology Innovation Policy; Environment and Natural Resources; Science, Technology, and Public Policy
Other Chapters in Acting in Time on Energy Policy:
- Oil Security and the Transportation Sector
- Policy for Energy Technology Innovation
- Electricity Market Structure and Infrastructure
- Acting in Time on Energy Policy: Foreword
- Acting in Time on Energy Policy
- Acting in Time on Climate Change
- Making Carbon Capture and Storage Work
"The preceding chapters in this volume offer many excellent ideas on climate change; oil, transportation, and electricity policies; carbon capture and storage; and the generation of innovative energy solutions. Collectively, these papers provide the new presidential administration with a wide array of excellent policy suggestions. I will not add to this list or critique those that have been offered. Rather, I begin with the assumption that we have identified a useful, scientifically supportable agenda for changes in our energy policies. My goal is to describe the likely barriers to enacting these wise policies and present strategies for overcoming these barriers."

OK, this post has been much harder to collate than I expected. Blizzard have made this especially difficult considering they have the same items with different names for Horde & Alliance. They have also named items that drop from both normal and heroic versions of the Trial of the Crusader raid the same… but given them different stats arghhh! To top this off items that have been data mined by MMO Champion, are not showing in Wowhead yet so its hard to get a full view of which items are best.
Instead of waiting for everything to be added properly, I'm still releasing this now, however will most likely edit the post with an update in a few weeks after all the bosses are unlocked to ensure the information is still accurate. For any Horde looking that this post, all the items I've listed are the Alliance versions – do not fear! You also have the same items available to you, the names are just slightly different.

I can't say I have been good about consistently trying solids with Annabella.. and while I know BM is her main source of nutrition for her first year..I am still a small bit concerned about why she doesn't seem to take to much..maybe I haven't offered her enough of a variety I suppose..but without even knowing what it is really she still kind of shy's away from the spoon like "nah, not interested" and she'll actually grab it and try to feed me! At first with yobaby yogurt she would eat like 6-8 small small spoonfulls and then maybe she got bored of it? Now she just doesn't really want anything I have to offer her..at least on a spoon..Maybe I should try harder with BLS? She likes knawing on a pretzel stick and will eat half every now and then (the small ones) and bread..loves bread, is this bad? I'm also kinda concerned for when she is over a year and it's time to introduce milk and other liquids..will she be able get the hang of it, or will I just have to help her with a cup everytime? Which by the way she is an expert actually at drinking out of a cup it's her favorite thing.. so I guess that wouldn't be a big deal, right? And do you introduce milk even if you are still BF? Sorry alot of questions..just mildly concerned..oh one more thing, could her teething be causing her to want to eat less? She seems a bit more fussy these days..and I'm not sure if it's due to the stress of not accomplishing crawling yet.. sigh..
Thanks, any input welcomed!!


text: My DD is 5.5mo and has been exclusively BF for the first 3.5 months and now receives expressed BM from a bottle when I'm at work. It's perfectly normal for her to go 3-5 days without a BM and when she goes, boy does she go! :lol Yesterday, she had 2 explosive BM, one at daycare and one at home about 5 minutes after BFing. This by itself is abnormal for DD. Since I was home for her second BM, I was able to see what it looked like. It was the normal yellowish brown watery BM, but this time, there were weird short brown things in it that almost looked like skinny worms, but they weren't worms.... I don't really know how to describe it. In addition to this, she also had a .5 inch string of something that looked like it could have been blood. This alarmed me of course, so I placed a call to have my ped call me back. In the meantime, I called daycare to ask for a description of the poop and it was the same as I described above with the exception of the blood. Since I'm a FTM, I'm already overly paranoid. So I asked daycare if they've ever seen a BM like it before and they said no and that none of the other infants have anything that looks like it, so she didn't contract anything from daycare. When the ped called me back, he said he hadn't heard of anything like it either, but since her demeaner was fine and she was happy, he wouldn't be alarmed unless it continued and there was blood in her poop again. I should mention that I just started giving her solids, only on the weekends when I'm home to monitor her. Last weekend she had maybe a tsp of banana mixed with BM. She had no reaction to it so I gave her about the same amount again this past weekend and I also tried giving her rice cereal friday night. On Sunday, I gave her about 1.5tsp of a bland chinese rice porridge, which is essentially overly cooked and diluted rice that is completely broken down. Any ideas what this could be and what could cause such a strange BM?

A sign posted in Germany's Black Forest: It is strictly forbidden on

married with each other for that purpose.

Mistranslations... ah, travel stories abound.
While travelling/working in Indonesia, the theatre group I was with attended an assembly of staff and students at an International School. While primarily English speaking, they regularly made announcements in both Bahasa Indonesia and Bahasa Inggeris. A new-ish (well, new to speaking Indonesian) teacher introduced the principal as the "Kelapa Sekolah" school coconut instead of "Kepala Sekolah" Principal, literally Head of the School. Needless to say most people were trying to hold back their laughter, while the Principal made his way to the stage!
Anyone else got "been there done that" translation funnies?

Re: "I am a jelly doughnut!"
that was JFK, during the berlin crisis. He had the words right, I am a berliner -- but it was an idiom -- a berliner was a fruit filled breakfast pastry, (not quite a jelly donut) He should have said, I am from berlin..
didn't matter much, the people of berlin understood his intent, even if he used the wrong idiom._________________________

Hoofddorp, 2012 – Norman a leading network security company, announced today that a cooperation contract has been signed with KPN.
Norman Endpoint Protection Award-winning Norman security technology constantly protects laptops, desktops and servers against the latest malware, viruses and spyware and includes the industry-leading Norman SandBox®, DNA Matching and Norman Exploit Detection technologies to protect against new and unknown malware and other persistent threats.
The challenge
There is little doubt that organizations today must protect their IT infrastructure from malicious threats to their corporate and customer data. With more information moving in and out of networks from a variety of sources, the risk of infection from malicious software (malware) is higher than ever before.
Malware attacks have become increasingly damaging, resulting in reduced productivity, loss of confidential information, strained IT resources, lost customers and lower revenue.
The Solution: Advanced Endpoint Security Management Made Easy
With Norman Endpoint Protection, you have the freedom to focus on growing your business while having confidence in your internet security. Award-winning Norman security technology constantly protects laptops, desktops and servers against the latest malware, viruses and spyware.
Norman is the first ISV (Independent Software Vendor) that KPN signed up as their software partners for the Parallels based cloud application platform that will be used to provide software to their IT partners. Norman, KPN and Parallels have worked closely together to establish the agreement and provisioning engine.
Parallels is a worldwide leader in virtualization and automation software that optimizes computing for consumers, businesses, and service providers across all major hardware, operating system, and virtualization platforms.

STEM – a shortened version of science, technology, engineering and math – is the focus of activities at the annual camp aimed at inspiring students to consider careers in those four areas.
Karnes City ISD is partnering with major energy companies operating within the Eagle Ford Shale, and with support from the Karnes City ISD Education Foundation is bringing this opportunity to students from all four Karnes County school districts in grades 4-8.
Teachers for those grade levels invited a total of 35 students to participate in the 2013 camp.
Campers will spend seven hours per day, 8:30 a.m. till 3:30 p.m., for all five days of the camp, immersed in a variety of STEM focused presentations and activities.
According to information from organizers of the camp, 45 percent of the participants from last year's camp indicated an interest in STEM careers before the camp, but afterward, that number grew to 83 percent.
The students will hear presentations from experts in these fields and get the chance to participate in "hands on" activities aimed to show them how exciting and interesting STEM careers can be, especially in regard to the development of the Eagle Ford Shale and the explosion of career opportunities brought about in this area as a result.
For more information about this year's camp, contact Karnes County STEM Camp Curriculum Directo Jo Ann Gutierrez at email@example.com or 830-780-2321 x464.

I just found this bird in Chania, Crete. Although the iridescent back and the long bill remind me of a hummingbird, I read that there are no hummingbirds in Europe, and it was too large for a hummingbird. It was on the waterfront at the harbor and, when I first noticed it, it dove in the water for a fish like a kingfisher would. But it is small for a kingfisher. I'm guessing about 5 inches.
Can anyone help identify this one? Thanks.

|Nicholas A. Robertson: KIA 2 April 2008. Brave Patriot. Remembered in a Gym.
Whenever one walks on a Coalition military base in Afghanistan one is immersed in a military landscape. However, the landscape is not solely controlled by tanks, horahs, and rolling out on missions. There is another landscape that does not distract yet strangely complements the militaristic mindset of the warrior's universe in its own unique, somewhat covert way. It is a landscape of the fallen.
Many camps and places on bases are named after people. Camp Williams, Arnstead Hall, Cooper DFAC, etc. People will say things like "I am going to eat at Cooper" or "I live over at Williams." All these places are named after the fallen. It may take one a day or so to realize it, but all these named places have a plaque, mural, or photo dedicated to the person who's name graces building along with the date of the fallen's death.
When one talks about these places one does not always think of the fallen who's life was taken in the heat of battle, by the Taliban behind the door, or the IED along the road. However, even if for a brief moment, whenever one walks by the memorial one is reminded of the fallen, the fallen's sacrifice, and that one's own mortality is in play. Life does go on but the reminders of death await those who pass by. Much like it is outside in the wire in Afghanistan.

The spirit of Thanksgiving has been symbolized by the
deeds and actions of Illinois students throughout the
state, who are helping with the ongoing Hurricane Katrina
relief efforts.
The Illinois State Board of Education has recognized
several high schools across the state for their efforts
in having organized fundraisers, bake sales, walk-a-thons
and many other events used to raise funds to help the
areas damaged by Hurricanes Katrina and Rita.
In Lemont High School students were busy volunteering
and fundraising to assist victims of this disaster in
many different ways. Coins were collected at football
games and over $1,577 has been raised and donated to the
American Red Cross Katrina Relief Fund. The high
school also collected toiletries, sheets and blankets
that were delivered to the Gulf Coast. Other activities
included a bread sale which raised over $430 and selling
Spirit Links during Homecoming Weekend which helped raise
over $522.
Meadowbrook School raised $10,000 through a car wash,
a Walk-a-Thon, bake sales and various individual and classroom
efforts. $5,000 will go directly to the American Red Cross
and the other $5,000 is targeted for the public schools
in Pass Christian, Louisiana. Greenbriar School raised
over $5,700 from its student lemonade stand projects,
face painting and from spare change.
The Westmoor School raised $1,400 at a bake sale. The
students also almost raised an additional $2000 through
the Chores for Change project. For this project students
do chores around the house, have parents sign a slip verifying
the work and drop the chore ticket and the money in a
piggy bank in the classrooms. Northbrook Bank and Trust
will match funds with a 25 percent donation. The Westmoor
School Girl Scouts also had a pajama drive and collected
pajamas and books which were sent out to the victims of
Northbrook Junior High raised $2,000 at a car wash and
a total of $3,500 including individual student donations.
The Farmersville Grade School and the Raymond Grade School
collected school supplies and books for children affected
by Katrina. Dallas CUSD #336, a small school district
of 250 students in West Central Illinois, raised more
than $2,400 for hurricane relief efforts. Students paid
money to wear caps, pajamas and to have special privileges
in the classroom. Teachers also allowed students to purchase
lunches with them for a day.
The Oak Lawn Community High School Students Against Drunk
Driving Chapter and the Student Mentor Program raised
over $4,500 for the American Red Cross Hurricane Relief
Effort by donating pocket change and selling New Orleans-style
beads. The Dorn Primary Centers Parent Teacher Association
in Hickory Hills raised over $3,000 by hosting a community
garage sale.
Today more than 400 children displaced by Hurricane Katrina
are enrolled in 46 school districts across the state.
Students and the local government are doing everything
possible to help Katrina victims in Illinois and in the
Gulf Coast. The Illinois State Board of Education (ISBE)
has developed a webpage with resources for schools enrolling
children displaced by Hurricane Katrina, http://www.isbe.net/katrina/default.htm.

What a clown!
Reggie Miller
all those above listed players killed title hopes and tormented us...Pierce had beat us in the regular season at times in the past and absolutely sucked against us in the playoffs this year!
Where is his lengendary Garden performance in the playoffs? Doesn't even know what it takes to be a hated player by us
Whats the matter being a Brooklyn Net not enough of a status sympbol for you? But just like any other Net you come to NY and hop on the Knicks nuts! Pathetic
Dude is trying make a name for himself...did MJ or Miller ever claim this? He's basically admitting that being a Knick nemisis is a praise worthy title and he wishes to be one
He wants to be booed loudly by us because he wants/needs the hate, sadly we hate you because you not because what you do on the court but because you're a chump off the court! Get a life
sorry Paul we just don't care that much about you!

|Postcard of Pine Tree Theater, Klamath Falls OR
circa 1940
Courtesey of Puget Sound Theater Organ Society Website
|Opening Night of the Pine Tree Theater, Klamath Falls OR
October 31, 1922
Courtesey of Puget Sound Theater Organ Society Website
By the time I was a teenager, this old theater had seen it's better days. The dingy lobby, worn and soiled seats told of nearly 30 years of hard use, barrels of popcorn slithery with butter, gallons of soft drinks, and untold number of chocolate bars smeared into the seats. The old theater's days were drawing to a close. Perhaps fittingly, my last seared-into-the-brain memory of the Pine Tree was near the end of her reign. The occasion was one of my first real dates -- a group date of couples. My current heart-throbs were the twins, but their dates were girls who seemed more comfortable with dating and talking to boys than I. My "date" was hardly even a friend, but a friend of the twins. I was shy, barely able to make a coherent sentence, much less easy banter. He was equally shy, or most likely just the silent-type, which made for a very long silent and miserable night. Almost enough to make a girl swear off dating.
Nevertheless, memories of Roy Rogers, Tom Mix, and Gene Autry riding, shooting and sometimes singing their way across the silver screen -- and my dad carrying me safely home -- have lasted a lifetime

Big Investors Struggle to Break Jim Balsillie's Grip on RIM's Board
Jason Mick
December 27, 2011 11:02 AM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
(Source: Peter Jackson/New Line Cinema)
Despite struggles, board has taken no decisive action to try to promote change
Reportedly, Canada's Research in Motion, Ltd. (
)'s co-CEOs/Chairman have ensorcelled their company's board members to the point where they've become almost unable to speak up against the pair. As a result the board has remained silent and submissive, even as RIM has seen its financial fortunes slide perilously in the wrong direction.
I. A Need For Change
The Wall Street Journal
, though, is reporting that some of the company's biggest investors have quietly joined calls for the board of directors to take drastic action -- either to
sell the company
or to wipe the management slate clean.
So far the noisiest
complaints had
come from Jaguar Financial Corp.
, a Toronto merchant bank who invested in RIM in hopes of forcing either a sale or a turnaround via a change in management.
Over the course of the last several months, RIM's efforts have unfolded like a train wreck:
Oct. 10-13
RIM experiences
a major service outage
, leaving customers without messaging.
Oct. 17
RIM offers
free premium apps as apology
Oct. 18
unveils its great OS hope
, "BBX", a new smartphone OS based on QNX.
Oct. 21
News arrives that
RIM has been sued
for scooping the name from an American software company's trademarked and active product.
Nov. 25
At the debut of the BlackBerry Bold 9790, RIM's employees offer a 50 percent discount to the first 1,000 customers in Jakarta, Indonesia, provoking a riot. Many are injured and RIM employees are arrested.
Nov. 28
Inebriated RIM employees
, representing their company on business, start a physical fight with flight attendants, forcing the flight to be diverted to Vancouver, off its course to Beijing. RIM apologies and fires the pair.
Nov. 30
security is breached
allow jailbreaks, and raising concerns about BBX
Dec. 2
RIM announces
it will miss its Q3 2012 revenue outlook
due to poor QNX (PlayBook) tablet sales.
Dec. 7
More flaws in QNX's security are revealed,
hackers defeat
RIM's feeble patching attempt.
Dec. 8
RIM is barred from using the trademarked "BBX", is forced to rename operating system to "BlackBerry 10".
Dec. 14
The NPD Group reports that RIM is fading fast in sales and only has an
8 percent market share
in the U.S., down from its peak of almost 50 percent.
Dec. 16
Earnings targets are missed and the next generation
BlackBerry 10 operating system is delayed
due ostensibly to RIM's lofty goals for LTE performance.
Dec. 23
The Globe and Mail
reports that RIM is preparing for a Jan. 11 hearing over whether it
stole the trademarked acronym BBM
from a Canadian broadcast advocacy who used the term for six decades.

About the lone positive news over this period has been the minor pickup in the company's stock on Dec. 21, which came thanks to reports that multiple companies were investigating a RIM acquisition.
II. RIM's Management Has Tightly Controlled Company, Board
Currently RIM has a very unusual executive management structure, which some blame for its problems. Company co-founders Jim Balsillie and Mike Lazaridis share the CEO and Chairman position, refusing to allow fresh blood to step in. Of the pair, Mr. Balsillie tends to focus on finances, while Mr. Lazaridis focuses on engineering.
In June RIM agreed to review its management structure, but there's been no action from the company's board thus far. A final analysis, reportedly, may arrive next month, potentially prompting some sort of action.
Investors are focusing their efforts on RIM's contingent of independent directors. These members mostly arrived in the wake of a 2007 stock backdating scandal, which led to fines and penalties from the Ontario Securities Commission and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. At the time the fresh blood forced company co-founder Jim Balsillie to step down from the role of Chairman, hoping to subsequently push co-founder Mike Lazaridis out of the CEO spot. Instead, after a year Jim Balsillie was back as a chairman and Mr. Lazaridis and Balsillie's unusual joint CEO/chairman scheme was restored.
Leading the coalition of independent directors is Barbara Stymest, former Toronto Stock Exchange CEO and executive at the Royal Bank of Canada (
), the nation's top lender. Another prominent director is Roger Martin dean of the University of Toronto's and author of a popular book on how directors should take lessons from the NFL, acting in a greater corporate activist capacity.
Mr. Martin wrote in his book, "[Board members] can choose to accept a check-the-box meeting, or they can rise above it and focus on doing their important public-service job: helping their company to perform well."
Ironically both Mr. Martin and Ms. Stymest appear to have given RIM's struggling leadership a check-the-box sort of approval. Reportedly, Mr. Balsillie's control over the board is particularly powerful and he has blocked other top-level executives from getting access to the board, in an effort to consolidate his and Mr. Lazardis' power.
RIM's Jim Balsillie reportedly tightly controls his company's board. [Image Source: TechShout]
But how long the pair will remain silent and submissive remains to be seen considering that the negativity surrounding RIM is starting to rub off on their reputations. The WSJ quotes an executive at one of RIM's top investors, "It would seem to be a joke to have two people on the board who claim to be experts in corporate governance."
"This is from the DailyTech.com. It's a science website." -- Rush Limbaugh

When writing a bash scripts most of us by default use echo command as means to print to standard output stream. echo is easy to use and mostly it fits our needs without any problem. However, with simplicity very often comes limitation. This is also the case with echo command. Formatting an echo command output can be a nightmare and very often impossible task to do.
The solution to this can be a good old friend of all C/C++ the "printf" tool. printf can be just as easily implemented into a bash script is it is used with C/C++ programs. This article describes some basics of printf along with practical examples:Read more ...
When managing a linux/unix operating system from the command line, users are interacting with the system via shell. This article will explore some of the basic features of the bash shell prompt. Default bash command line prompt on many linux systems does not have a color and display information about user's username, hostname and current working directory. As you well see in the following sections of this document this default settings can be easily changed by exporting a bash prompt PS{n} variables. Bash prompt can be modified to suit users needs and can display time, load, number of users using the system, uptime and more.Read more ...
Sometimes it is needed to check what user is executing the bash script and whether the user supplied all required arguments:
#!/bin/bash display_usage() { echo "This script must be run with super-user privileges." echo -e "\nUsage:\n$0 [arguments] \n" }
# if less than two arguments supplied, display usage if [ $# -le 1 ] then display_usage exit 1 fi # check whether user had supplied -h or --help . If yes display usage if [[ ( $# == "--help") || $# == "-h" ]] then display_usage exit 0 fi # display usage if the script is not run as root user if [[ $USER != "root" ]]; then echo "This script must be run as root!" exit 1 fi echo "All good !!!"
$ ./script.sh 1 This script must be run with super-user privileges. Usage: ./script.sh [arguments] $ su Password: # ./script.sh 1 2 All good !!!

From: Marge Baker, Executive Vice President, People For the American Way
To: Interested Parties
Re: GOP Obstruction of Executive Branch Nominees
Date: March 3, 2010
Despite the fact that Democrats hold a substantial majority in the chamber, Republican senators are blocking President Obama's Executive Branch nominees at a rate never before seen, according to a review of records by People For the American Way.
From 1949 (when Senate rules were changed to provide for cloture on nominations) through 2008, cloture votes have been forced on only 24 executive branch nominations. However, in just the first thirteen months of the Obama administration, there have been nine such cloture votes: Cass Sunstein (OMB), Robert Groves (Census), Harold Koh (State Department), Chris Hill (Ambassador to Iraq), David Hayes (Interior), Ben Bernanke (Federal Reserve), Patricia Smith (Labor), Martha Johnson (General Services Adminstration), and Craig Becker (National Labor Relations Board)
That's an increase of more than 2000% in the rate of forced cloture votes on nominations-24 nominations on which cloture votes were forced in sixty years compared to 9 in just over 13 months. Republicans are on pace to force 29 cloture votes by the end of Obama's first term.
An examination of President George W. Bush's term reveals that the Senate subjected only seven executive nominations to cloture votes for the entire eight years-compared to the nine in just the first thirteen months of the Obama Administration.
Another measure, cloture petitions filed, reveals an even more dramatic increase in the magnitude of the obstruction. Between 1949 and 2008, there were 36 executive nominations on which cloture was filed, while there have been 15 filed since President Obama took office.
Indeed, during all eight years of George Bush's presidency, there were only 15 nominations on which cloture petitions were filed compared to the same number in just over thirteen months of the Obama Administration. At this rate, President Obama can expect 51 of his first term executive nominees to face cloture petitions.
Moreover, the number of cloture votes/petitions may well go much higher-there are currently 69 nominations on the executive calendar. For more than 89% of these nominations it will be at least three months since each was nominated (Dawn Johnsen, President Obama's nominee to head the Office of Legal Counsel, is expected to be re-approved by the Judiciary Committee tomorrow. She was first nominated way back on February 11, 2009-well over a year.)
In addition to the OLC and other key positions at the Department of Justice, nominees to a number of other agencies have been blocked, including the Department of Defense, the International Monetary Fund, the National Transportation Safety Board, the Department of State, the Department of Energy, and the Department of Homeland Security.
This sort of obstruction is literally unprecedented for either party and should be stopped. It prevents executive branch departments from serving critical public needs, and it represents, essentially, an effort to overturn the results of the last election.

By Grant McGee: CNJ columnist
One of the cool things about the Internet is you can find out whatever happened to old pals. Sometimes you get an answer, sometimes you wish you'd never asked.
So one day I got to wondering whatever happened to my date for my senior prom.
The answer left me stunned. She had checked off of this earthly plane last year. She wasn't that old.
I told The Lady of the House of my discovery.
"It happens, we all have to go sometime," she said from behind her newspaper. "You're not thinking about her. You're bothered because you're thinking about your own mortality. Get over it."
I thought my buddy The Holy Man might have some insight. So I visited with him at his Holy Man digs.
"You're thinking about your own life, your own death. Get over it," said The Holy Man and he went back to working his crossword puzzle.
So I did get over it.
A week or so later I was wandering the Internet again, wondering what ever happened to the girl who asked me to her senior prom. She was a year behind me in school and I was a freshman in college.
She had passed on too.
Discovering that my two prom dates had gone on to their reward left me dumbstruck.
The Lady of the House was in the kitchen when I told her the news.
"I'm thinking you need to stop aimlessly wandering the Internet," she said as she prepared one of her gourmet meals. "It's sad, it's tragic, get over it. I guess I'm glad I didn't go to a prom with you."
It made me wonder what it meant, what it was all about. Then I remembered a saying I heard once: "Like much in life it doesn't mean anything."
A point to ponder.

The Sculpture by the Sea exhibition at Bondi, Sydney for this year has just finished from the 3rd and 20th November, 2011. In it's 15th year, it has grown from a voluntarily run one day exhibition into a multi-million dollar popular showcase of Australian and International sculpture, attracting around 500 000 domestic and international visitors.
Chroma was part sponsor of the Education Program at both exhibitions this year along with the NAB. This year we provided paints and mediums which were used in Education Workshops, contributing colour to the children's work which was much loved by students and artists alike.
These workshops are a rare opportunity for students to devise and create their own sculptures in a practical workshop delivered by artists exhibiting in the main exhibition. They are part of School Education Programs which also incorporates Exhibition Focus Tours, Artist Spotlight Talks and Teachers' Professional Development Events. The workshop activities vary every day, based around the artist's work in the exhibition and available materials. During the 2011 exhibition around 2,600 primary and secondary school students attended the program.
These valuable learning experiences for students provide professionally directed art activities in a relaxed environment as part of a school excursion. Upon arrival children listen attentively as the artists give directions about the art activity for the day and show pictures of and explain their own work. It's even hard to hold them back, as the kids so eager to begin creating. After moving into the work space "tent", it doesn't take long for the children's work to take form. The kids are helped by a large band of adults which includes teachers, volunteers, parents, the artist and Sculpture by the Sea staff.
Even given the few guide lines, many children really enjoy developing an individual idea from the available materials. ¾ -1 hour is allowed for practical activity. By this time many children's sculptures are done or their concentration has lapsed. However there are always a few dedicated individuals, with grander plans, still working by the time the artist or teacher tries to drag them away for a group discussion. The evaluation, where kids get the chance to speak about their work, analyzing and appraising their own and others creations, is a really important component their art educational experience.
All participating schools in the Education Program go into the draw to win art supplies for their school sponsored by Chroma Australia. Chroma is also giving prizes to winners of the children's sculpture competition , which closes to today for Bondi.
As mentioned on the Sculpture by the Sea website, they "….aim(s) to provide both students and teachers with an informative, stimulating and multi-sensory experience…(The) range of Educational Programs, including Artist-run Sculpture Workshops, Focus Tours and Artist Spotlight Talks, offer participants the opportunity to explore, examine and discuss a range of creative, conceptual and artistic responses to site and landscape, form and contemporary ideas."
A most integral part of the Sydney Art Educational scene now. Thank you Sculpture by the Sea.

I think Gallo has been better than Beasly and Gasol, but it's good that he's in the top ten. This class is pretty loaded at the top though, can't wait to see the development of Gallo and some of these other guys next year.
Knicksrulz told me to post this up so here it is...the most recent rankings...

Sophomore 20: Best in Year 2

 By David Thorpe

Scouts Inc.
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]
<NOSPACE>
Jesse D. Garrabrant/NBAE/Getty ImagesDerrick Rose (not pictured) is the lone All-Star from this class, but he isn't the top soph on this list.

What a difference a year makes. Last season, this class looked special, with the potential for multiple All-Stars and strong rotation guys in its future. But this season, while there are still many All-Star caliber players at the top, the class has dropped a notch overall. This happens on the NBA ride, as teams bring in new players as well as new coaches.
So after two grueling seasons, who sits atop our Sophomore 20?
1. [Only registered and activated users can see links. ], Nets
I understand the irony of picking Lopez first in this class. NBA teams desire more than anything to find a franchise center, and yet New Jersey, which has found its guy, flirted with being the worst team in NBA history. Nevertheless, Lopez has been sensational in almost every respect and is deserving of this honor.
Try this mental exercise: If you were starting a team from scratch, who would you pick at the center spot after [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]? I'd suggest that Lopez would be close to a unanimous pick if you polled all 30 NBA GMs, and with good reason. He played with energy all season, provided leadership when the team sorely needed it, and became a force on the block at both ends of the floor.
There are few centers who demand a double-team on offense and don't need help in the post on defense, and Lopez is now in that class. Next season should be the first of many trips to the All-Star Game for Lopez.
2. [Only registered and activated users can see links. ], Bulls
No player has less of a desire to be a superstar but more talent to be one than Rose. It's one of his best qualities. Although he's not a point guard who sees teammates the way guys like Steve Nash, Chris Paul or Deron Williams do, he's such a good guy and teammate that no one on his team cares. They know he's doing all that he can to win, and that's all that matters.
I've written before that he's the [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] of point guards, exploding by people and then exploding at the rim; he simply overpowers his opponents. He also has greatly improved his midrange game, specifically from 5-15 feet away from the rim. And with his great attitude and work ethic, it's easy to imagine that he'll develop an improved deep shot for next season, which must pain those who will have to defend him.
3. [Only registered and activated users can see links. ], Grizzlies
In some respects, Gasol is nothing like the guys just ahead of him and behind him on this list. He's a blue-collar guy who doesn't make highlight-reel plays or look like an impact basketball player at this level. But make no mistake, he's the complete package -- he averaged 14.6 points, 9.3 rebounds, 1.6 blocks and one steal a game this season.
Gasol has a great understanding of the game, playing angles well on defense and exploiting those same angles on offense for buckets or assists. And he's very easy to play with, something that is far more important than is appreciated. When old-school coaches talk about "playing the right way," they are referring to players like Gasol.
4. [Only registered and activated users can see links. ], Thunder
One of my favorite lessons to teach basketball students is the one titled, "Fear the player who has poor skills but still dominates and wins." Westbrook is that guy. He's a poor shooter, he's average at finishing at the rim, and he shoots too much (104 3-point attempts and lots of long 2s, for example). While he's an able passer, he also still struggles with turnovers.
Yet, despite all of those things, he's a big reason why the Thunder are in the playoffs. His will to win and dominate are evident and part of the winning fabric in Oklahoma City.
5. [Only registered and activated users can see links. ], Timberwolves
He's the only power forward who ranks in the top five in both offensive and defensive rebound rate. And he ranks with [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] as the only top rebounders to also be true 3-point shooting threats, though Love has tailed off there considerably. So despite dealing with injuries, funky rotations, and some troublesome point-guard play this season, Love still had a positive season and has a bright future.
6. [Only registered and activated users can see links. ], Grizzlies
Mayo went from being a primary scoring option last season to often the third or fourth option this season, all for the better of the team. He did so with a great attitude and still averaged over 18 points a game.
He improved in his new role by taking more shots in the paint and becoming a much better finisher inside. Though he had less success from midrange this season, he took fewer shots from that area. Consequently, he became a slightly more efficient offensive player, which is rare for a young player taking on less of a scoring role.
7. [Only registered and activated users can see links. ], Heat
Beasley did not make the jump in Year 2 that was expected of him. Nor did he improve as much as the guys above him on this list, which is disappointing. But he was still a difference-maker enough times during the season to help Miami be not only a playoff team, but a hot one entering the "second season." He's far from being consistent enough to be depended upon, but there is no better time to change that than in the playoffs.
8. [Only registered and activated users can see links. ], Knicks
Gallinari is playing like many people expected he would. He's a very good shooter, with potential for greatness in this area. He also battles on defense more than people realize and he's still just 21 years old. Will he be like Dirk one day? Probably not. But compare the two at 21 years of age: Dirk averaged 17.5 ppg, made 37.9 percent of his 3s and added 6.5 rebounds per game. Gallo is at 15 ppg, 38 percent shooting on 3s and 4.9 rpg. "Dirk lite" would be a great sidekick next to any superstar in Gotham.
9. [Only registered and activated users can see links. ], Pacers
The good news is that Hibbert has been about the same player all season. The bad news is he's dropped just a bit from last season in terms of efficient production. Yes, he took more shots and shot a better percentage, but he took more shots only because he played more minutes.
This season, he had a lower player efficiency rating, averaged fewer points and rebounds per 48 minutes, and a had higher turnover rate. In short, he has not stepped up to claim any kind of permanent spot in Indiana going forward.
10. [Only registered and activated users can see links. ], Suns
Brook's brother hasn't done much statistically to deserve a spot in the top 10. But it's not all about statistics. Since Lopez joined the starting lineup, the Suns have been one of the top teams in the NBA. Forget about his raw numbers, which are way up because of his increased playing time -- Lopez has improved in every metric except for assist rate. He's legitimately earned votes for the Most Improved Player award.
11. [Only registered and activated users can see links. ], Bucks
Ilyasova helped the Bucks start the season competitively and was a somewhat consistent force all season. Supremely confident, he shot the Bucks out of some games, but also shot them into some wins.
12. [Only registered and activated users can see links. ], Spurs
Perhaps the best story coming out of San Antonio this season, Hill started the season ready to be a rotation player, then took it up two notches from there. He is an MIP candidate and has a bright future.
13. [Only registered and activated users can see links. ], Kings
Although Thompson hit a developmental wall this season -- basically performing as he did last season -- he still looks like he'll be a rotation player in the NBA. The Kings, however, hoped he would grab hold of the starting power forward spot. While that didn't happen, he still has room to grow.
14. [Only registered and activated users can see links. ], Clippers
Gordon might be the biggest disappointment in the class, but it has a lot to do with the situation he's in. It's hard for a young player to grow in an environment where coaching and management problems have left the team devoid of spirit, ideas and strategies. With a new regime taking over next season, he's a prime "most improved" candidate.
15. [Only registered and activated users can see links. ], Warriors
If Morrow played for a more, shall we say, conventional team, would he earn minutes as a pure, smart shooter? Or does he play right now precisely because the Warriors are so unconventional? Either way, he's proved to be an elite shooter in the NBA, and a guy who is valued by every team because of it.
16. [Only registered and activated users can see links. ], Suns
In one season, Dragic went from being a draft dud to being a difference-maker as a reserve guard for the Suns. He became a much better shooter and cut down on his turnovers a great deal. He not only showed that he's a legit NBA player, but that he can help his team win games with his energy and quicks.
17. [Only registered and activated users can see links. ], Cavs
A guy who improved in every metric across the board, Hickson has become an important rotation player for the league's best team. If I were to rank the sophomore class after the playoffs, he'd probably be a top-10 candidate as long as he stays in the Cavs' rotation. His athleticism can make a difference in the postseason.
18. [Only registered and activated users can see links. ], Bucks
His statistics are not inspiring and he does not pass many "eye tests," but Mbah a Moute is an integral part of an excellent team. Some people see him as the next [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]. While I don't, I do see a great glue guy who plays extremely hard and smart and does things the right way. He's about winning, and that's what he's brought with him to Milwaukee.
19. [Only registered and activated users can see links. ], Nets
Lee did not shoot the ball as well as he did last season, but he still rebounded from a terrible start to make over 40 percent of his 3s in February and March, while being the Nets' best defender. Most importantly, he was a steady ship on a rocky sea, making it easy for the Nets' decision-makers to believe in him going forward.
20. [Only registered and activated users can see links. ], Blazers
No one is more disappointed in his play this season than Fernandez himself, who saw his minutes, shooting and scoring numbers drop from last season. He has openly questioned what his role will be next season and where he'll be playing. Still, he managed to make over 37 percent of his 3s and averaged over 11 ppg in April as Portland made a strong late-season run.
"The Knicks are back" - Amare
I think Gallo has been better than Beasly and Gasol, but it's good that he's in the top ten. This class is pretty loaded at the top though, can't wait to see the development of Gallo and some of these other guys next year.
I think Beasley has a hell of a lot more potential than Gallo (I thought he'd someday be playing as well as Durant is now), but Gallo has hustle and heart, which Beasley doesn't (or at least he lacks it when I see him).

gallo will be a great 2/3 guy on our team next season i expect him to come in next season and average around 17-18 points a game. id be very disappointed if he doesnt come into next season looking bigger and with improved skills
DaTPRiNCE...That EGYPTiAN Fella, #MeloMafia
Gallo was taken at 6 in 2008, Jordan Hill was taken at 8 last year.
Why didn't we pick Brook Lopez?
Nice Job, Gallo!!!!!!!!!
Brook Lopez #1...
good, now I've got that out-of-control, frustrated, regretful, want to go slap a n*gga feeling!
Right behind D. Howard!
thanks Paul!

Whatever I write u guys are just going to say I dont like Gallo.
WTF! I'm writing my opinion any way.
Gallo was put in the top 10 circle b/c his coach gave him 34 minutes of playingtime in 81 games.
Other 2nd season players that showed more talent and potential was not able to receive such high minutes of playingtime on their team.
JJ Hickson 20 mpg performance wouldve help the Knicks win more games than Gallo 34 MPG (Gallo made Hickson look like a super-star in the summer league games).....here are some more 2nd season bigmen that wouldve added more wins for the Knicks in the past two seasons:
F/C-Roy Hibbert 24 mpg
C-Jason Thompson 28 mpg
G/F-Anthony Morrow 26 mpg
I did not put down any 2nd season guards b/c practically all the guards wouldve been a great big improvement over Duhon.
Where are the people who said it was totally ridiculous, absurd, wrong, improper, incorrect, ludicrous to compare Dirk to Gallo? Maybe it's not the most perfect comparison, but it does serve at least good enough purpose to have an ESPN writer say exactly what some people on this board have been saying for weeks.Originally Posted by David Thorpe
Trillion....u are becoming more of a "JOKE" than this 2010 Dream-on Plan scam sold to Knick-Fans 2 years ago.
Hint: 6.9 JJ Hickson has veteran players ahead of him in the rotation: Shaq, Big Z. Varejao, Jamison, and 40 mpg King James. And lastseason Cavs frontcourt roster had more bigmen than this season, which allowed Hickson to receive consistent steady playingtime at all 3 positions (SF-PF-C) 20 mpg.
That can not be said about Gallo...
Look I could give a fuk at this point about you or the other crybaby pseudo-Knick fans who have done nothing but complain and whine about every facet of our organization. Go ahead and be negative all you want...you won't bring me down. I learned at around the age of 9 not to cry over spilled milk so I won't dwell over missed draft picks. I will wait for the 2010 plan to unfold and pass judgment then, not prejudge and assume failure before the plan is finished.
I think that Danilo Nowitzki will not only be the best player in the NBA in the near future but the best basketball player in the world.Lebron James and Dwayne Wade should be begging Donnie Walsh to sign them so that they could have the once in a lifetime opportunity to play next to the great Danilo Nowtizki.When the Knicks drafted him 2 years ago over the Lopez brothers, I just knew that the Knicks were going to win an NBA championship in 2011.
Not to be argumentative...
but aren't you and other D'Antoni supporters the ones who said
"no other coach could've done better with this squad"?
Isn't that conjecture? Isn't that "asserting" points as facts- as you say? ...designed to satisfy your bias?
What's that saying about the pot and the kettle?
What does pot calling the kettle black mean? Sorry for interrupting the discussion between you basketball scholars.I sincerely apologize.

What do students have to say about their visits to Career Services?
"Insightful and...eye-opening. I really enjoyed seeing the results from the Strong and MBTI assessments. I realize that the earlier I start looking into a career, the [better] chances I am going to have."
"My visits to Career Services guided me to change my major and pursue my true calling!"
