Good afternoon.
We will discontinue the regular weekly message during July. If a matter of urgency arises, I will communicate with you on an ad hoc basis. This message contains the following items:
· An update on the status of the state's education budget.
· Information about a memorandum that clarifies Child Find roles and responsibilities.
· Information about procedures governing the creation of tax-exempt foundations for the use and benefit of schools (a memorandum from our general counsel is appended to this message).
Finally, this week we once again have included the agenda and dates for the Superintendents' Conferences and the New Superintendents' Conference, which will be held in the fall. More detailed information will be sent to you in July.
Budget Update
As of this writing, the Governor has not taken any action on the education budget bill, which was sent to him last Friday by the General Assembly. He has 60 days from June 20 in which to take action. The Governor has, however, signed an implementation bill that confirms that the GSA foundation level for FY04 will be $4,810 (an increase of $250 per student) and confirms that from now on, the poverty count will be calculated using the numbers of the Illinois Department of Human Services instead of the federal census.
Interagency Agreement Regarding Child Find
A memorandum that reviews the responsibilities of the Department of Human Services (DHS) and the State Board of Education with respect to an interagency agreement that the two agencies signed in December 2001 is posted at http://www.isbe.net/news/pdf/isbe_dhs_child_find_transition_memo.pdf.
In December 2001, DHS and the State Board signed an Interagency Agreement addressing Child Find collaboration required by regulations (34 CFR Part 300.123) of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). The agreement clarifies the roles and responsibilities of DHS, the State Board, local education agencies, and Child and Family Connections offices with respect to Child Find and the transition of children who are turning three years old and moving from IDEA Part C to Part B services.
Procedures Governing the Creation of Tax-Exempt Foundations
Appended to this message is a memorandum from ISBE's general counsel, Respicio F. Vazquez. The memorandum explains procedures set forth in the Illinois School Code governing the creation of tax-exempt foundations that are qualified to receive gifts, donations, bequests and other contributions for the use and benefit of school districts. The memorandum addresses requirements of both the federal Internal Revenue Service and the Illinois Department of Revenue.
Robert Schiller
State Superintendent
of Education
TO: Regional Superintendents of Schools
Boards of Education
FROM: Respicio F. Vazquez
General Counsel, State Board of Education
SUBJECT: Procedures Governing the Creation of Tax Exempt Foundations
Article 2 of the 2002 Illinois School Code, 105 ILCS 5/2-3.74, requires the State Board of Education to disseminate to all school boards and superintendents of schools information concerning the procedures governing the creation of tax exempt foundations qualified to receive gifts, donations, bequests and other contributions for the use and benefit of school districts of the state.
A primary purpose for creating a tax exempt foundation is to solicit contributions from individuals or corporations, with the intent of applying funds raised toward supplementing the educational programs of a district. The advantages are that the person(s) contributing may treat the contribution to the foundation as a tax deductible charitable donation and that no federal or state income tax is paid on the part of the foundation. To achieve this status, however, both the Federal Internal Revenue Service and the Illinois Department of Revenue must be contacted for the acquisition and submission of the necessary forms.
The following information is offered in keeping with the intent of the law; however, it is not intended to be a substitute for seeking advice from an attorney, accountant or other qualified person knowledgeable in these complicated procedures.
Internal Revenue Service
Federal Internal Revenue Service requirements, tax information and materials for charitable organizations are available at 800/829-1040 or on-line: http://www.irs.gov/charities/charitable/. Links from the site are as follows:
Exemption Requirements – A brief description of the requirements for exemption under IRC Section 501(c)(3).
Application for Recognition of Exemption – Procedures for applying for exemption under IRC Section 501(c)(3).
Filing Requirements – A brief description of the annual filing requirements for tax-exempt organizations.
Private Foundations – A brief explanation of the rules for classifying charitable organizations as private foundations, and the effect of private foundation status.
Unrelated Business Income Tax, General Rules – A general description of the unrelated business income tax requirements for tax-exempt organizations.
Contributions – A brief description of the disclosure and substantiation requirements for contributions to charitable organizations.

September 2003
Breakout Session I (see descriptions below)
Breakout Session II (see descriptions below)
Five breakout sessions: participants may attend 2 of the 5:
Accountability: Keeping Our Heads While Those About Us Are Losing Theirs
Learn the facts and fallacies about the newly adopted legislation for testing and accountability that aligns Illinois law with No Child Left Behind; walk through how adequate yearly progress (AYP) is determined and how to project progress for your schools; view the new e-Report Cards and the Illinois Interactive Report Card Web site; review the new "assessment frameworks" that will guide test development for the next five years.
Offered in breakout sessions I & II
School Improvement: Using What We Know to Improve Performance
Focus on four components of school improvement, highlighting strategies that really work: data analysis that drives targeted improvement plans; classroom curriculum, instruction and assessment aligned with the Learning Standards; teacher and administrator enhancement; and support services for students, families and communities.
Offered in breakout sessions I & II
Finance and Funding: Gearing Up for the Real Reform We Need
Understand the new state financial profiles—what they are and are not; preview proposed legislation to assist districts in significant financial difficulty; review the status of the state education budget; discuss "life after EFAB," potential funding recommendations and next steps; review options for legislative and public support strategies.

Once the diagnosis is confirmed, the outlook for most children who receive treatment for
attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is encouraging. There is no specific cure for ADHD, but there are many treatment options available. Each child's treatment must be tailored to meet his individual needs.
Treatment for ADHD uses the same principles that are used to treat other chronic conditions like
asthma or
diabetes. Long-term planning is needed because these conditions are not cured. Families must manage them on an ongoing basis. In the case of ADHD, schools and other caregivers must also be involved in managing the condition.
Educating the people involved about ADHD is a key part of treating your child. As a parent, you will need to learn about ADHD. Read about the condition and talk with people who understand it. This will help you manage the ways ADHD affects your child and your family on a day-to-day basis. It will also help your child learn to help himself.
At the beginning of treatment, your pediatrician should help you set around 3 target outcomes (goals) for your child's behavior. These target outcomes will guide the treatment plan. Your child's target outcomes should focus on helping her function as well as possible at home, at school, and in your community. You need to identify what behaviors are most preventing your child from success. The following are examples of target outcomes:
Your child's treatment plan will be set up to help her achieve these goals.
Ongoing monitoring of your child's behavior and medications is required to find out if the treatment plan is working. Office visits, phone conversations, behavior checklists, written reports from teachers, and behavior report cards are common tools for following the child's progress.
Treatment plans for ADHD usually require long-term efforts on the part of families and schools. Medication schedules may be complex. Behavior therapies require education and patience. Sometimes it can be hard for everyone to stick with it. Your efforts play an important part in building a healthy future for your child.
Ask your pediatrician to help you find ways to keep your child's treatment plan on track.
Most school-aged children with ADHD respond well when their treatment plan includes both medication and behavior therapy. If your child is not achieving his goals, your pediatrician will assess the following factors:
While treatment for ADHD should improve your child's behavior, it may not completely eliminate the symptoms of inattention, hyperactivity, and impulsivity. Children who are being treated successfully may still have trouble with their friends or schoolwork.
However, if your child clearly is not meeting his specific target outcomes, your pediatrician will need to reassess the treatment plan.
While there are no signs of a cure at this time, research is ongoing to learn more about the role of the brain in ADHD and the best ways to treat the disorder. Additional research is looking at the long-term outcomes for people with ADHD.
ADHD continues into adulthood in most cases. However, by developing their strengths, structuring their environments, and using medication when needed, adults with ADHD can lead very productive lives. In some careers, having a high-energy behavior pattern can be an asset.
The following is a list of support groups and additional resources for further information about ADHD. Check with your pediatrician for resources in your community.

This map displays the location and performance data for all participating clinics. The view defaults to a high-level map of the Eastern United States with the entire HIVQUAL data set represented by a large red dot over New York State. Clicking repeatedly on this dot zooms the view into New York, and as the view narrows the single dot is replaced by multiple dots that represent smaller clusters of sites. (Red dots represent aggregated samples of 1000 or more; orange dots represent 100 to 999 patients; and yellow dots represent up to 99 patients).
Each of these dots may be clicked in turn, which zooms the view into that area. Data are eventually displayed at the level of individual clinics, which are represented by small blue dots. Clicking on any of these generates a "flyout" text box that contains the program's name, its facility type, and the name, score and performance quintile for the current indicator. Clicking "view details for this row" will display the entire data point in a table view below the map, including the street address for the clinic.
While it is possible to scroll through the performance for each indicator by clicking repeatedly on the "Next" link in the flyout, it will usually be more convenient to filter the map data to focus on a particular indicator. This can be done by typing a portion of the indicator name in the "Indicator Name contains" text box to the right of the map and then checking the box just to the left of that field. For example, filtering on "domestic" will limit the display to the "Domestic violence screening" indicator. Additional filtering options are provided that allow for focusing on particular types of facilities (e.g., just community health centers) and/or sites that score above any desired threshold value.
In addition to common map navigation options including using the mouse to drag the view or dragging a sliding scale to zoom in or out, there is a button with an arrow and crossed lines that provides a "navigate to here" feature. Entering a street address will refocus the map on that location, and the user can then zoom out to see clinics in that area." The "About" tab contains additional details concerning this dataset.

- The eligibility criteria for including patients in the data review—atleast one HIV primary care visit in each half of the year—focus onthose HIV‐infected patients that are retained in ambulatory HIV care.The vast majority of HIV clinics use a sampling methodology (seedocumentation on eHIVQUAL.org) to reduce the data collectionburden. The denominators for certain indicators are small (i.e., PCPprophylaxis) because eligible populations for these indicators arereduced. The vast majority of HIV ambulatory care programs (>90%)have self‐reported their performance data and are included in this report.Blank data fields occur for three reasons: (i) if there were five (5) orfewer patients eligible for a single indicator, these data wereredacted to protect confidentiality; (ii) indicators with insufficientspread are not categorized by quintile; and (iii) some fields, such asfacility type, are not applicable for aggregated (regional or statewide) entries.

Save Your Knee With Less Invasive
Knee Resurfacing Surgery
If you suffer from knee pain due to early- or mid-stage osteoarthritis, you may be a candidate for MAKOplasty partial knee resurfacing. MAKOplasty uses an advanced, surgeon-controlled robotic arm that allows the surgeon to accurately target and repair only the diseased portion of the knee, saving as much of your natural knee as possible.
Potential benefits of this less invasive alternative to total knee replacement include:
To increase your chances of returning to an active lifestyle, talk with a physician about knee resurfacing before your osteoarthritis progresses too far.
Schedule a consultation online or visit our orthopedist list to schedule an appointment over the phone.
Faster Recovery with Less PainThis minimally invasive knee resurfacing is performed through a four to six inch incision over your knee, along with small incisions in your femur (thigh) and tibia (shin) bones.
See how people reclaimed their active lifestyles through knee resurfacing —
If your symptoms are similar to these characteristics of typical surgery candidates, MAKOplasty may be a good treatment option for you:
Knee Surgery at BCH
Our knee replacement program has earned The Joint Commission's Gold Seal of Approval® by demonstrating compliance with national standards for quality and safety. The Joint Commission is the nation's largest standards-setting and accrediting body in health care. BCH is one of only five Colorado hospitals to have earned this important certification.
We use a patient-centered approach to medical care. Every patient receives a personalized care plan that guides the entire medical team — from the technicians who prepare the surgical suite to the rehabilitation therapists who will help you take your first steps after surgery. We'll chaperon you through every step of the surgical process and keep your family members in the loop, too.
We offer a comprehensive range of surgical services including a dedicated orthopedic nursing unit where all clinical staff specialize in the treatment of orthopedic patients. We also can provide physical therapy and home care if you need those services.
To learn more, schedule a consultation online or visit our orthopedist list to schedule an appointment over the phone.
If you and your physician decide that knee resurfacing is the best treatment option for you, you're invited to attend a free Pre-Surgery Joint Class to learn more about your procedure and how to prepare for it. This important education can help you get the best possible care from your medical team and improve your recovery.
What is osteoarthritis?Osteoarthritis is a form of arthritis and a degenerative joint disease that causes cartilage to break down, removing the buffer between bones. This may cause pain during normal daily activities and can eventually cause loss of motion and poor alignment of the knees.
How is knee resurfacing different from a total knee replacement?A total knee replacement repairs all three areas of the knee (inner, outer and top). MAKOplasty is a partial knee resurfacing that repairs only the diseased portion of the knee. Damage can be repaired in one area (inner, outer or top) or two areas (inner and top).
Is MAKOplasty knee resurfacing covered by my insurance?Knee resurfacing is typically covered by most Medicare-approved and private health insurers. Check with your individual provider regarding your coverage.
How long will my MAKOplasty implant last?The life expectancy of your implant depends on several factors including your weight, activity level, bone quality and compliance with your physician's orders. Alignment and positioning are also important factors affecting the life expectancy of an implant. MAKOplasty allows your surgeon to achieve the optimal alignment and positioning for your implant to help it last as long as possible.
If I undergo MAKOplasty, will I have to stay overnight in the hospital?Hospital stays average from one to three days.

A Florida pastor ran into complaints after posting the message "Christmas - Easier to spell than Hanukkah" on his church's outdoor sign over this past weekend.
Dr. Mike Butzberger, pastor at Lighthouse Baptist Church in North Palm Beach, Fla., told the Palm Beach Post that he put up sign, intending it as a humorous message.
"It was not in any way shape or form meant to be offensive or disparaging or mean spirited," he told the newspaper. "And it's sad to me there are people that are so humorless that they would be offended."
It didn't take long for Butzberger to get some feedback on the sign. Soon after it went up, he began fielding calls from people questioning his intent and others who were offended by the message.
While Rabbi Shlomo Ezagui of Chabad House Lubavitch of Palm Beach told the Palm Beach Post he hadn't seen the original message, he said he didn't know what the intention behind it was after being shown a photo of the sign.
"It's clearly an insensitive message," Ezagui said. "I hope it wasn't anything negative though."
On Sunday night, Butzberger changed the message on the sign to "Jesus Loves You." The Palm Beach Post reported that he chose the new message because of its low character count and it's easy to change.

15 NCAA Div. III individual championships
PELLA—Central College sophomore Eli Horton (Runnells, Southeast Polk HS) has been named the Iowa Conference male athlete of the week.
Meanwhile, three additional Dutch athletes were recognized in their respective sports. Eric Larson (sophomore, Waverly, Waverly-Shell Rock HS) was cited as the field events performer for men's track and field while Elin Phipps (freshman, Boone) was tabbed the women's track events performer and Bryan Laraia (junior, Ankeny) was listed as the men's golfer of the week.
Horton placed fourth in the 5,000-meter run Saturday at the Washington University (Mo.) Invitational. He crossed the line in 14 minutes, 33.77 seconds, cracking a 19-year-old school record by 12 seconds. The previous mark (14:45.96) was set by Andy Goodman in 1994. Horton's time ranks third in NCAA Division III. He finished behind two unattached runners and a Division II runner.
It's the second time Horton has been tabbed the track events performer of the week and his second time earning athlete of the week distinction. He was recognized during the cross country season Oct. 29.
Larson took runner-up honors in the decathlon at the Missouri meet with 6,342 points, finishing 255 points behind a Division I performer. His mark ranks second in the nation, 20-points shy of first place.
Phipps captured a pair of middle distance titles at the Central Invitational Thursday. She won the 1,500 meters in 4:50.11, six seconds ahead of the field, before taking the 800 meters in 2:21.82.
Laraia scored the low round for Central's Red team both days at the Graceland Spring Invitational Friday and Saturday. He carded 76-72—148 on the par-72 Mozingo Lake Golf Course in Maryville, Mo., to finish tied for third in the individual standings. Laraia, in his first competition on the varsity squad, helped Central shave 19 strokes of its first-round score to finish second the 14-team tourney.

Old Doerflingers storefronts on display
People have the opportunity to see storefronts of old downtown La Crosse thanks to research by a UW-La Crosse graduate.
Sophia Lorent created a display in one of the kiosks downtown highlighting the window displays Doerflinger's has had up mostly in the 1930's and 40's.
The poster is located on the corner of fourth and main streets. She says the displays did more than show off the trendy merchandise stores had to offer.
"Not only do department store window shop displays improve the image of the store itself but it improves the image of the entire downtown area and looking at the different types of displays they did I noticed there was a lot of looking at the local history of La Crosse," Lorent said.
The display will be up for a least a month and another copy will stay in UW-L's Murphy Library.

There were 735 teams with qualifying scores and only 100 teams were even accepted to compete at nationals, so just getting that far was an accomplishment for the students.
But luck wasn't on the Three Rivers team's side during the competition. They had prepared for the competition while working with South Texas climate but had to compete in cold, humid and windy weather.
All of these factors impacted their launch because the competition has very specific requirements.
For the rocket team, the competitions aren't just a matter of successfully launching and landing. The teams have to meet specific qualifications such as reaching 750 feet and landing within 48-50 seconds while weighing less than 650 grams without breaking an egg contained inside.
Because of this, weather played a factor that just wasn't in their favor.
Their rocket had a perfect time of 48 seconds and their egg survived. The only flaw to their launch was their rocket only reached 650 feet instead of the required 750 feet.
Riojas said if they had launched late in the day, instead of 8:30 a.m., they would have done better.
Team coach and TRHS chemistry and physics teacher Judy Hudek said winds were at about 13-14 mph and the team had to submit their information by March 25 for nationals.
But even though they placed 91st, the team came home with a positive attitude and medals for making it to nationals.
"Overall, even though we didn't do as well as we hoped to do, it was a great experience to compete against other schools much bigger than us," Riojas said. "We put ourselves on the map. Representing our school in rocketry, which was new to us, is a great feeling."
Riojas also said he was grateful to Hudek for giving him and his teammates the opportunity to participate since the program didn't exist at TRHS until this year.
Hudek said the rocket program is set to expand in its second year at TRHS. She said Smith and Saenz are holding tryouts for a third teammate to replace Riojas, who graduated last weekend. She also said their younger brothers will be starting their freshman year in the fall with plans to start their own rocket team and a third team could happen as well.
But, she said students must have an interest in rockets and science in order for the team to be successful. Hudek has coached rocketry for 10 years and taken teams to national for five of those 10 years.
"I find the kids that want to do it and are interested," Hudek said. "I had a blast this year. When you enjoy what you do it is not work."

At the opening of Intel Developer Forum Fall 2009 Intel Corp. demonstrated the world's first working chips made on 22nm fabrication process. The first microprocessors built using 22nm process technology are only due in 2011, but already now Intel is testing the process technology as it believes that successful shrinks of process technologies will enable higher-performance processors.
"At Intel, Moore's Law is alive and thriving. […], we are already moving ahead with development of our 22nm manufacturing technology and have built working chips that will pave the way for production of still more powerful and more capable processors," said Paul Otellini, chief executive officer and president of Intel.
The 22nm test circuits include both SRAM memory as well as logic circuits to be used in future Intel microprocessors.
The 22nm wafer displayed by Mr. Otellini is made up of individual die containing 364 million bits of SRAM memory and has more than 2.9 billion transistors packed into an area the size of a fingernail. The chips contain the smallest SRAM cell used in working circuits ever reported at 0.092 square microns. The devices rely on a third-generation high-k metal gate transistor technology for improved performance and lower leakage power.
By continuing to lead in manufacturing technology Intel is able to innovate and integrate new features and functions into its processors. Following the move to 32nm Intel will subsequently introduce Sandy Bridge, Intel's next new microarchitecture. Sandy Bridge will feature a sixth generation graphics core on the same die as the processor core and includes AVX instructions for floating point, media, and processor intensive software. In general, Sandy Bridge is an evolutionary step after Intel Nehalem/Westmere, it will operate at circa 4GHz clock-speed as well as will have four to eight cores.
After Sandy Bridge, Intel plans to introduce code-named Ivy Bridge processors, a 22nm shrink of Sandy Bridge. In 2012, Intel will bring code-named Haswell processor to the market, which will feature brand-new micro-architecture in eight-core implementation as well as Intel Larrabee graphics core.

- Psychological support role of night nursing staff on an acute care oncology unit: a Canadian pilot study
- Author(s)
- Hanson, Elizabeth J.; McClement, Susan; Kristjanson, Linda J.
- Abstract
- Observational field techniques were used to explore the dimensions of psychological support provided by experienced night nursing staff on an acute oncology unit in a Canadian tertiary care setting. This study confirms the findings of an earlier British pilot study surrounding the essential role that nurses play in meeting the psychosocial needs of cancer patients during the night shift on oncology wards. Categories included comfort care, monitoring, facilitating patient control, responding to the family, collegial support, and contextual factors. The findings confirm the need to raise the awareness of other health care professionals regarding the psychological support role night nurses undertake.

Timing Is Everything
They say that "hitting is timing".
According to Warren Spahn, "pitching is upsetting timing".
Thanks to Cole and Heidi Hamels, we now can surmise that "timing of wife going into labor is upsetting pitching". Cole was not sharp in yesterday's 5-4 loss to the Rockies, giving up four runs in five innings.
Ah yes, timing. Cole Hamels, who seems to already have his whole career planned out, was certainly not thinking ahead when he and Heidi decided to engage in some baby-making, presumable back in January. Would it have been that hard to realize that January plus nine months equals new baby smack in the middle of playoffs? Maybe he was assuming the Phillies wouldn't make it to the postseason?
(alright, yes that last paragraph was typed with tongue planted in cheek, but still…)
As for Baby Hamels, I haven't been able to find any confirmation this morning that the baby actually arrived. Nonetheless, congrats to the new parents.
Which leads me to wonder why Charlie even decided to have Cole start this game, if labor was that imminent. Sure, we can say that professional athletes should be able to set their personal lives aside while on the field, but who knows how much that might have affected his concentration?
And then there's Cole's abysmal record in day games this season: 0-6 with a 5.44 ERA. What's up with that? His performance in night games is markedly better, at 10-5 with a 3.95 ERA. No wonder he was whining to the press earlier this week about the ridiculous start times of Games 1 and 2.
So why not start Happ or Blanton? Okay, Happ had pitched two innings in the final regular season game on October 4th, but Blanton had last pitched on October 2nd. As it turned out, both Happ and Blanton were used out of the bullpen, so now the Phils have burned through three starters in one game.
That would seem to leave Pedro Martinez as the Game 3 starter, though Charlie has not yet made his decision, saying Blanton is still in the mix, according to phillies.com. Happ says he would be ready too, even though he took a liner off the leg yesterday from the first batter he faced.
Now the series moves to Denver, where the forecast for Game 3 includes temperatures in the 30's and snow showers (!). That's football weather, not baseball. At least I'll be watching from the cozy comfort of my home.
10 Comments
Hope the Phillies are ready for some snow! I'm looking forward to seeing Pedro Martinez start… although, I thought he should've retired back in 2004. Enjoy watching from the cozy comfort of your home, I'll be working the game… possibly freezing.
I have to say I 'm as affraid of Pedro starting as I was nervous when Myers pitched yesterday….but we have a good team who should be able to handle almost anything…
Outside the Phillies Looking In
Oh no, there are so many factors against the Phillies!! I think that maybe Hamels should have been replaced since his mind must have been on his wife and baby. How could it not be?? And then to use two starters out of the bullpen. I wonder if that was planned in case Heidi had the baby during the game. Usuall our SPs are not even in the bullpen to warm up. They sit in the dugout with the rest of the team.
It is so hard to even sit in the stands when it is cold, it must be worse on the field. I sat through an Army Navy football game in twenty degree weather. I froze.
Good luck to your Phillies. Maybe they need long underwear??
I watched a little bit of that game and figured that Hamels was mad when he bolted out of the dugout. Then the announcers said his wife had gone into labor. You're right – timing is everything! So Pedro is starting tomorrow? I hope it's not as cold as predicted. Good luck!
Ouch on the temperatures! I was in Colorado last year in April and it had snowed the night before. Brrr. This girl that has only lived in Honduras(where is hot and humid) and in Southern California is not used to any snow. I do love the pictures that Don was showing from Colorado though.
Have you heard any news on baby and mom?
A big Yes to all you said here.
I think some pitchers could have, in Cole's situation, pitched in Cole's Labor Situation…but not Cole Hamels. And yes I wonder that Charlie didn't realize that, as you said, and not have used him.
We should have won that game. We needed that game. Dang.
And tonight they play in Alaska. Well, ok, not Alaska, but WHO is the idiot that sold Denver a franchise without stipulating that they have a domed stadium, for early season and post season play?
I wonder how Pedro's neck will react to the cold?
Also, I heard last night on Comcast Sportsnet that Hamels' baby is named Caled. Cole and Cale, I guess. =)
Carol http://www.Mlblogs.com How 'Bout Those Phils?
Ok, the Hamels' are NOT allowed to have sex in January ever again! Ugh. Yeah, that sucked. Hey, did you hear about the girl who sued Howard for his 200th HR ball? OMG…great parenting…NOT. Just blogged about it.
Baseball players engage in that kind of activity in the offseason !
The good part is that the baby and mom are doing fine, the bad part is that no matter what, that episode was going to play with Cole's mind even if they induced on an off day.
I know from a guy's point of view that day can be murder on your mind both in worry for your beautiful wife, and your new baby.
Some might say they should have saved him for Game 3, but he had a job to do, and I bet the team might have made the suggestion, but Hamels shot that down real fast.
By the way, I have a friend who write out West, you know where they are getting snow warnings, and he said that MLB has asked about maybe postponing the game until Sun or Mon since the weather report is more favorable for those days…….I guess we shall see, but at least MLB is thinking ahead about tonight, and the safety of the players and the fans.
Rays Renegade
Sue – I know the game has been postponed for tonight – but I'm going to miss seeing Pedro pitch!

October 23, 2013 —
Okay, I give up. My never-ending effort to stand on my own two feet and crawl out of the shadow of my dog's popularity has failed. I'm waving the white flag, admitting defeat and giving in. Some of you would argue that I created this monster, but the simple truth is that no one is to blame. It is what it is, and I'm now sanguine about the whole affair. I live with a celebrity and am hanging on for dear life. If she had opposable thumbs, I'd be out of a job and still, the popular consensus is that Dharma writes this column, while I just drive her around. So be it.
While making plans to attend country crooner Ryan Broshear's show in Bethel, NY (www.dancingcatsaloon.com [2]), I glanced at my twitter feed (@jonathanfoxIMHO) and cringed. Broshear was tweeting (@ryanbroshear) about his visit to Sullivan County and had this to say: "Looking forward to coming to Bethel, NY next Friday to perform @The Cat Saloon. Hope to catch up with Dharma the Wonder Dog!" Nice. Apparently, she responded, since what followed was a conversation between Broshear and the dog, which included (but was not limited to) chat about what she should wear, who would be in attendance and whether there would be dog chow waiting for her from the chef. Charming. After some chatter, they settled on her red cowgirl hat and off we went. I originally met Ryan while escorting the pooch to the Texaco Country Showdown last summer and was beyond impressed by his musical prowess and incredible charisma and said so at the time. Sifting through the archives of The River Reporter, I came across a quote which stated that Broshear (www.ryanbroshear.com [3]) had such style that he "makes women swoon and grown men cry." Nothin' about animals at all, but clearly what he walked away with from our initial meeting was all about the dog. That's great.
To those who say "why not just leave her at home?" I must respond. Being my service dog, she has to be with me at all times and (clearly) she has taken advantage of that. Broshear was (IMHO) fantastic and had über-fans in the house, decked out in eponymous T-shirts, recording his every move on their smart phones and yes, swooning a bit over his growling, snarling, hip-thrusting (channeling Elvis on occasion) interpretations of country-cool. Original songs, mixed with great covers served to give Broshear the opportunity to showcase his great band and his own brand of swagger that will undoubtedly catapult him into the mainstream soon. Very soon. While he did acknowledge my presence, (and agreed to a photo-op), it was (for something completely different) really an excuse to snuggle up with you-know-who, and when I checked her Facebook page the next day, I discovered this note from him—to her. "Dharma, I just wanted to thank you for being such a great fan. I was so happy to have you in the audience and loved your cowdog hat. P.S. I dedicated my song 'Where Have All the Good Girls Gone' to you." Charmed, I'm sure.
Imagine my chagrin when I noted that the next event on her (I mean my) calendar was judging a canine costume contest in Youngsville, NY (www.facebook.co/townegift [4]), celebrating the Towne Gift Shoppe's third anniversary. Fellow judges Kat Wingert (www.littlestarsfdc.org [5]) and Brenda Seldin (www.petscancommunicate.com [6]) joined us in the festivities, which included a visit from Dharma's four-legged pals Mimi and Fantasia, courtesy of Denise and Ed Burkhart's farm, "Imagine! Alpacas," just up the road. The gorgeous creatures (www.imaginealpacas.com [7]) seemed to remember meeting the wonder dog, (but not me) as she slinked into their enclosure and gave them a kiss, wagging her adorable tail. All of the dogs were a hit, while prizes for "Cutest," "Most Original" and "Best in Show" were awarded before cake was served. Proprietor Kristen Fischer followed up by saying, "Thank you to everyone for an amazing celebration at the Shoppe. The support was overwhelming and we couldn't do it without our friends and customers." Several of the kids asked for Dharma's "pawtograph" before our exit and next destination, Callicoon, NY.
Having read that there would be a daffodil bulb planting event along Main Street, I decided a snapshot was in order and decided to swing by to chat with organizer Paul Matwiow, who told me (after insisting on meeting the dog) that this year marks "more than 6,000 bulbs" donated in honor of a loved one, and that he hopes it will catch on. Matwiow is asking residents to join in and "plant bulbs roadside in front of your house; we'll provide the bulbs." To participate in this beautification endeavor, call 845/887-5421. Dharma made no promises about not digging in the garden, for at the end of the day, she ain't nothin' but a hound dog, right?

Triumphant tribute
A great late interception by Stauch stymied another O'Neill comeback effort. By far the biggest stand of the night came after O'Neill scored a shocking, late TD on a halfback option pass to close within 26-25. The Raiders lined up for the two-point conversion in an attempt to author a come-from-behind win, but Sullivan West dug in for its biggest stop of the season and halted Chambers in his tracks to stave off defeat.
The story on www.sportsinsightsny.com entitied, "Enshrined In Memory," gives the details of the unforgettable night and its aftermath. Earlier in the week at the OCL Cross-County Divisional IV Championships, Sullivan West took first, second and third, with inspiring runs by Corrine VanWagner (19:58), Kelsey Dutton (20:09) and Courtney Meyerer (20:17). Newcomer Ethan Seidl (17:29) was third in the boys race. Eldred eighth-grader Kayla Maas (23:49) topped the girls in Division V. Tri-Valley won the boys and girls teams titles. Sullivan West volleyball seniors Kelsey Brockner, Morganne Brooks and Skye Feinman were honored before their final home match. In soccer the boys and girls had night game, senior night contests against Liberty. The boys fell to the Indians 3-0, but the girls played an inspiring overtime game as they battled the Lady Indians for 100 minutes to a scoreless tie. That tie propelled Liberty to the sectionals as they finished their league record with a .500 mark. Sullivan West senior soccer players honored included Gavin Owen, Owen Andrews, Jasmine Davis, Marianne Durkin, Krysten Herbert, Sienna Klaber, Jasmina Mujanovic, Hayley Puerschner, Heather Sattler, Sydney Sipple and Kat Sosa.

- Separation and determination of di- and tricarboxylic acids in fruits by capillary zone electrophoresis with amperometric detection
- Author(s)
- Yang, Wen-Chu; Yu, Ai-Min; Dai, Yi-Qing; Chen, Hong-Yuan
- Abstract
- The method for separation and determination of several di- and tricarboxylic acids, including oxalic, malic, tartaric and citric acids (OX, MA, TA and CI), found in fruit juices by capillary zone electrophoresis with amperometric detection at a copper electrode was developed. Based on cyclic voltammetry (CV) experiments, the detection mechanism for the analytes at a copper electrode was proved to be the formation of complexes between di- and tricarboxylic acids and Cu(II) ion on the electrode surface. Separation was carried out in a pH 6.2 phosphate buffer solution (PBS) containing 0.4mmol/l cetylpridinium bromide (CPB) and 20mmol/l β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) as an electro-osmotic flow (EOF) modifier to reverse the direction of the EOF and a complexing reagent for CPB to improve the separation, respectively. At the working potential of 0.12V (versus SCE), the calibration curves for the analytes were linear with about three orders of magnitude and the detection limits (S/N=3) for them were between 4 and 8fmol. By the method developed here, di- and tricarboxylic acids in four fruit juices, apple, grape, pear and orange juices, were successfully separated and determined.

- Abstract
- A novel single step method is developed for patterning multiple proteins within self-assembled binary colloidal crystal patterns. Self-assembly takes place by confining the suspensions in which either one or both types of particles are coated separately with proteins prior to mixing. This method offers precise control over the spacing between the proteins and the pattern size over large areas without any involvement of expensive lithographic techniques.

'The Last Stand' Star Jaimie Alexander Rocks A Low-Cut Sequined Mini Dress
Jaimie Alexander has been quietly making the red carpet rounds for her new film "The Last Stand," but there's no doubt her star power is increasing. The actress sizzled at the film's London premiere on Tuesday night in a low-cut, sequined mini dress.
Alexander is most known for her role as Jessi on the ABC Family series "Kyle XY." She also appeared in "Thor." She is currently dating "Twilight" star Peter Facinelli, Jennie Garth's ex-husband. Jaimie and Peter co-starred together on "Nurse Jackie" and met on the set of the film "Loosies."
"The Last Stand," also starring Arnold Schwarzenegger and Johnny Knoxville, hit theaters last weekend and fared poorly at the box office, making only $6.3 million. That's just a short setback for Alexander, who has several films in production, including "Thor: The Dark World," "Savannah" and "Intersection."

A black squirrel has become an Internet sensation after footage of it repeatedly fainting was uploaded to YouTube.
The video titled "Tippy the Fainting Squirrel" shows the squirrel appearing to eat a nut while standing, only to suddenly freeze, tip over for a few seconds, stand back up and start eating again, The Huffington Post reported.
The short clip with no information was posted on Nov. 25 by a YouTube user named Honor Via.
It's sparked an online crusade among social media users to find out why Tippy is so, well tippy.
Diagnoses include everything from fermented berries (drunkenness) to narcolepsy and even forms of myotonia.

The Rockpile Rant you know has got to grow
3/30/09 Happy Birthday Mom !
Thanks a bunch for all of the responses to my "suggestions". I wasn't hinting at any big elaborate prize extravaganza, just tossing a bone out every now and then to spark interest.
Let me take you deep for a second. If you think about it we're all using MLBlogs in one way or another get what we want. You may not think you personally do, but sit back and relax and let me further dissect this for you.
Most Bloggers has a reason/purpose for which they blog. Whether it's to vent anger, promote your team, talk about current issues, maybe you do it to pay the bills.
Some people blog because they're aspiring writers and MLBlogs is their testing grounds for bigger and better things. Using this place as their online resume.
Some blog for the sole purpose of being the top dog and gaining attention and a mild degree of respect from their peers.
Some blog because they enjoy when people respond to their thought/ideas. Folks are motivated by different reasons and that is what makes this place neat and extremely diverse.
Me I'm an evolving reality blogger.
I'm a step ahead of most but that's because I walk fast. Let it be known I never mind slowing down for a friend or cohort.
I have big ideas for the future of blogging but the format/system we on blog on here has it's limitations.
I will always keep an active blog here on MLBLogs.com with fresh content because this place rocks. But after this season this entire blog will migrating over to WWW.ROCKPILERANT.COM .
Right now WWW.ROCKPILERANT.COM is just a cover page with a link back to this blog. Shortly it will be under construction and my friend and Webmaster/Webmistress? Betsy will transform it into something really special.
The new improved ROCKPILERANT.COM site have a live chat and discussion forum.
A RPR picture page with game specific pictures and video.
A fan profile page for Die Hard Rockies fans and also a Rockies Rhymes page where Rockies fans can submit poems and try to out Rhyme me…(props to R-Luv)
A blog section which will be a very close mirror of this blog.
A Hagg'n page to explain the workings of the "new sport" and track participants weekly point totals.
A Sports Memorabilia page with my autograph collection with the stories (and usually pictures) of how each piece was acquired and personally autographed.
At some point I may sell some of my duplicate pieces to help pay for the family to make the yearly trip to Tucson for spring training but that's still up in the air.
I will also be taking on advertisers to help pay the cost of keeping a site like this active.
Something else I'm going to do is bring on board a few aspiring Rockies writers, probably two to start with. I know I'm not a top-notch writer, but I'm decent and I'm great at capturing the moment. I think if I added a couple of writers who's opinions differed from each other in addition to the way I roll a tight blog, it could make for some interesting/diverse coverage of Rockies home games.
So to summize my initial point, I too am using MLBLogs.com. I'm using them to create a Rockies site that fans, players and readers can enjoy. Something the Rockies will be proud of.
I'm like that guy/gal at the game who takes your picture for the "teams" website and then gives you a card to access the picture later.
Only I wont charge you for the picture and I'll even send you a copy if you'd like.
In my future I see every fan/player checking the Rant after home games to see if I captured a good picture of them.
I'd like to have a place where fans can vent when they're upset about a trade, or express their happiness about a new acquisition.
I want to build a Rockies community that I actively have a part in. Am I crazy?..maybe but I'm telling you I'm the right guy for the job.
Am I a blogging visionary? F'kin Aye, but you can be the judge of that.
Why am I telling you this? I plan to have this website up and functional in a few months and if I don't tell you about it how will you know?
It's hard for me to talk specifics of Rockies baseball right now because it's so damn close. Dan was over at the house today and I had a chance to see what the Rockies season tickets looked like. If I had a camera I'd have taken a picture of them, they're sweet. They came in a spiral bound booklet, with a different picture on each ticket. I was reminded of old school baseball cards, that's a nice touch for a sporting event ticket.
What do you think about my expansion? I'm going to do it and I'll tell you why. I never thought anyone would take the Rockpile Rant serious and people actually do.
My thanks to you for making this blog just popular enough that my wife encourages me instead of discourages me.
BTW-If I win against Clemson Girl in Max Madness I'll have to go against Rays Renegade or Diatribe of a Law Student. Both blogs I highly respect and both are found on my sidebar.
Good luck my friends, I only wish I could write as well as both of you.
Peace, and happy baseball to ya…D

D – I wish you well in your "adventure"! I just know you'll come out on top! And don't sell yourself short – you're a great writer!
Hey D,
WOW! That sounds so cool! Exactly the kind of Rockies fansite we've been missing around here. I'm looking forward to the first one. (And you know I'll have rhymes to submit)
JULIA-Thanks, that's a really cool thing to say.
R-LUV-Thanks for noticing, those things are missing. That's what I'm here for…D
I love your website idea. It's definitely something I'll be checking out. And like Julia said, don't sell yourself short. You're a great writer. If I didn't think so, your blog wouldn't be in my link list. 🙂
I love this blog and I am super excited for the new site. I am so ready for opening day, partly because I want to label my posts with real titles and not just song lyrics, but I promised =)
JEN- Thanks, I always appreciate your comments and your blog.
ELLIE-Thank you, I thought it was a nice touch with the song lyrics very original…D


text: Early Retirement Incentive plan moves to conference committee A teacher early retirement incentive has been incorporated into two different versions of the Municipal Relief Bill. Different versions of this bill have been passed by the House and Senate and those are being resolved in a conference committee. Both versions (H. 4631 and S. 2436) authorize an incentive (up to three years of service or age or combination thereof not exceeding three) provided it is approved by the municipal chief executive and school committee. Liability costs of the incentive would be assumed by the municipality. Unfortunately, the Senate version restricts the incentive to non-Retirement Plus participants. The House version contains no such eligibility restriction but delays enactment until after a study is completed and a new law is enacted. Please call or e-mail your state senator and representative as soon as possible asking them to lobby members of the conference committee to adopt the incentive without eligibility or implementation restrictions. Email Your Legislators Legislators can be reached through the State House switchboard at 617-722-2000.

how will you know when your supply has increased? i've heard you'll get more when you pump... or if you're using an SNS, that the baby will drink less from it.
i've been nursing, then using the SNS, then pumping. the only reason i nurse first is b/c i know the baby removes milk more efficiently than the pump. so far i haven't been seeing an increase in the amount i pump (still around 1 oz. total each time), and my LO only drinks less from the SNS some of the time. also i'm not using the SNS at night, and she gets up to nurse 2-3 times and goes back to sleep satisfied.
i do notice her suck is stronger and i hear more swallowing than i used to before. is this a good sign? my LC wants me to wait another week before skipping the SNS with the formula every other feeding. then the following week skip every other day to try and wean and see if her weight stays up. i'm hoping so


text:
So I weaned my son in early November. It went a lot easier than I expected, I was really disappointed. Now it is almost february and I still have a little milk stored...I just notice that if I add a little pressure I leak a little. I really expected not to have any milk left by now.
So how long did you guys still have milk?

I EP for 14 months (4 times a day) until I completely dried up for my first child. I lugged the cooler box to work daily. I stopped when I only got 0.5 oz for every session and it's no longer worth the effort and yes, it's hard work. I didn't know anything about hand compression (guess that's why I dried up).
My older child never latched on but I believed that if I persisted, she would have but I didn't, out of my ignorance as a first time mom with no support. Also, the LC I saw told me that it's too late already so I listened to her.
Now with my 2nd child, it happened again and I thought I would have to go through the whole EP process again until one day after 6 weeks of bottle feeding, he suddenly latched on on his own. It's like magic!
He still gets his bottle when I am at work but he will nurse when I return home. You can do it. Even if not, don't be too hard on yourself.
I exclusive pumped for my older child and mixed feed her with formula when I was down on breastmilk.
We gave some formula too to my son now when the milk in the fridge runs out and I am not home with fresh milk. Some formula is better than starving the baby right?
I also try to get more out now with nursing and pumping after to completely drain myself. I pump 5 times a day (3 times at home and 2 times at work). If there is any extra, older sister gets 2 oz mixed with her powder milk at night. I drink like mad (and of course, runs to the toilet like mad too). I take oatmeal, barley water, sweet potato and lots of soup. I nurse him whenever he's awake just to practise. Sometimes, he doesn't get enough at the breast and still needs topping up from the bottle. That's ok. I know that I have done all I can.
What I am trying to say is - We try our very best to give the best that we can to our baby. Just do what you can and don't stress yourself out. Miracles happen when you least expect it

Totteridge Golf Club
Greensburg, Pennsylvania
July 12-15, 2004
GREENSBURG, Pa. â Ji Ho Moon of Ellicott City, Md., shot 2-under-par 70 at Totterridge Golf Club to grab the early lead in the Boys Division at the Solutions Consulting Junior Classic. In the Girls Division, Carrie Morris of Tyler, Texas leads at 79.
The Solutions Consulting Junior Classic is a 54-hole stroke play event conducted by the American Junior Golf Association at Totterridge Golf Club. The tournament features 99 players, ages 12-18, from 16 states and Canada, including 41 players from Pennsylvania.
Boys Division leader Moon had a solid round with six birdies, hitting every fairway and only recording 22 putts. Moon made a birdie on the difficult dogleg left par-5 No. 15 after he chipped in from 10 yards off the green.
âI played a solid round,â the 15-year-old said. âI kept getting up-and-down and I putted really well. This is a tough course and the greens are very quick.â
Moon is continuing his stellar play after finishing seventh last week at the Randall Parker Shootout at Fieldstone.
Chris Barach of Niskayuna, N.Y., Daniel Obremski of Irwin, Pa., and Clayton Rotz of Chambersburg, Pa., are deadlocked in a tie for second place, one shot behind the leader after carding matching rounds of 1-under-par 71. Rounding out the Boys Division top-five are Grant Doverspike of Bakersfield, Calif., and Jamie Wallace of Moorestown, N.J., who are tied for fourth at even-par.
In the Girls Division, 18-year-old Morris played steady throughout the round. The highlight of her round came on No. 11 after she hit a flop shot from 20 yards out and stuck the ball inches from the hole.
âI putted really well today,â said the Texas Christian University signee. âItâs a great course. I just hope I continue to play well.â
Morris recently tied for seventh at the Lubbock Junior presented by United Supermarkets & Market Street. Her best AJGA finish was a fifth-place showing at the PING Harvey Penick Junior in 2003.
Robyn English of Warwick, R.I., sits one shot back after carding an 80. Finishing in a tie for third in the Girls Division are Brittany Stillwagon of Bloomingdale, Ohio, Jessica Hamilton of Rockville, Md., and Seung-Hyun Lee of Kennett Square, Pa., with identical 82s.
The American Junior Golf Association is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to the overall growth and development of young men and women who aspire to earn college golf scholarships through competitive junior golf. The largest association of its kind, the AJGA has a junior membership (boys and girls ages 12-18) of approximately 5,000 junior golfers from 50 states and 30 foreign countries.
Titleist, the AJGAâs National Sponsor, has been the catalyst and driving force behind the Associationâs success since 1989. Rolex Watch USA, a supporter of the AJGA since 1983, became the inaugural AJGA Premier Partner in 2004.
The second round of the Solutions Consulting Junior Classic tee times run from 7 a.m. through 11:48 a.m. off the No. 1 tee. For more information on the Solutions Consulting Junior Classic, call tournament headquarters at (724) 837-6700.

Last week, I joined government, private sector and civil society participants from over 80 countries at the 2013 Seoul Cyber Conference, which took place October 17-18 in Seoul, South Korea. One of the main themes of the conference was the importance of working together to meet our shared cyber challenges. As Secretary Kerry noted in his video remarks, "All of [us] are part of the important effort underway to make cyberspace more accessible and secure for all. No one nation can carry this burden alone."
The conference was the culmination of a long preparatory process which included pre-conference workshops that underscored the value of fostering a diverse community of stakeholders actively involved in shaping cyber policy -- a central tenant of the U.S. government strategy for cyber capacity building and main goal of the 2013 Seoul Conference. We sponsored a U.S. workshop in Washington, D.C., inviting more than 30 members of industry and civil society to join government experts to share perspectives and generate ideas about how the private sector can contribute most effectively to cyber capacity building.
This event identified an initial community of interest on developing principles for international public-private collaboration on cyber capacity building. Several distinguished guests provided keynotes to the group. Participants then had the opportunity to reflect on how industry can serve as a resource for developing nations and on ways to make public-private collaboration easier and more effective by what one guest later termed "joining the community."
I was pleased to be able to take the insights generated by the U.S. workshop with me to Seoul, where they were briefed in a pre-conference session and cited in the capacity building panel.
While in Seoul, the U.S. hosted representatives from Morocco, Tunisia, and Ghana for a breakfast discussion on cyber capacity building. We learned about the distinct challenges these very different nations face, and agreed to stay in contact with them and a variety of partners as the United States moves forward on its cyber capacity building agenda.
I thank the Republic of Korea for both its vision and its exceptional execution of the 2013 event. I urge all of you reading here to take a moment to visit the main event website. Read the brief from our preparatory workshop, watch the panel discussions in the media gallery, and review the outcome documents, including the Chair's Summary and the Korean "Seoul Framework for and Commitments to an Open and Secure Cyberspace." I believe that you, like I, can utilize this resource to learn more about how to give to, and receive from, the dynamic and innovative cyber community.

Teen injured in Pittsford crashAugust 06,2013Brandon teen
hurt in crash
PITTSFORD A Brandon teen remained in a Rutland hospital Monday after a car crash on Route 3 Sunday afternoon, according to Vermont State Police.
Police say a 1996 Honda Civic slid off the road and into a telephone pole north of Stevens Road at just before 3 p.m.
The impact snapped the utility pole and heavily damaged the drivers side door of the Honda.
The driver of the car, Kobe Pinkham, 18, suffered broken bones and unknown internal injuries, police said. He was taken by ambulance to Rutland Regional Medical Center.
A spokeswoman for the hospital said Monday that Pinkham was listed in the hospitals directory but no status on his condition was available.
A passenger in the vehicle, John Thornton, 17, of Brandon, was uninjured in the crash. Police say Thornton was wearing his seatbelt while Pinkham was not.
The cause of the crash remains under investigation although police say speed was a factor. Several homes in the area lost power after the crash due to the downed power lines.MORE IN This Just In

Been busy lately, so I didn't do as much as I'd like to have. I'll make sure I do next time.
The eighth seeded Knicks face the fifth seeded Indiana Pacers tonight in what it always has been lately for the Knicks, a big game. A win would not only get them closer to a Playoff berth, it would be against a good team, while being short handed. This team's short handedness however is not a worry for me as we are a deep team. No Jeffries, Stoudemire, and Lin could be a blessing for the chemistry of the team and the will to win without big pieces.
Pacers starting line-up:
Darren Collison
Paul George
Danny Granger
David West
Roy Hibbert
New York Knicks Starting 5
Baron Davis
Landry Fields
Carmelo Anthony
Josh Harrellson
Tyson Chandler
The last two times these teams met was a back-to-back the Knicks won definitively, proving this game is "winnable". Granger may be trying to redeem himself, and the Pacers may have won their last two games riding momentum, but this Knicks team appears to be ready for this.
Watcha thinkin' about this time, Granger?
Making A Win Sweeter
Yesterday Indiana Pacers legend and Knicks' rival Reggie Miller was announced to be inducted into the Naismith Memorial Hall Of Fame. The Knicks defeating them the night after this announcement, and hopefully another beat down, would make this win even greater.

So where are the T's and A's????? That's the best part of these game threads.
The Indiana Pacers has been the 3rd best team in the Eastern Conference all season....a healthy Knicks 10-Man rotation with Lin-Sanity, Fields, Melo, Stat, and Tyson Chandler showed in a double-header the Knicks could beat the Pacers in a postseason series without a strong sweat. Knicks in 5
Tonight game....Knicks vs Pacers is a different story....our headcoach Woodson did a 360 change on the players....Woody is showing he have no confidence in our bench-players and certain starters.
Woody 8 wins in 9 games came from a headcoach strong confidence in 10+ players on the roster. So this Pacer game is without question........gloomy
I keep forgetting GT's are NSFW... My boss just came in and had a nice gander at those big ass girl's gif's...
He's not a knicks/bball fan but he does like nice asses, so i'm cool. but i gotta remember that....
If we win, it's because we protect the ball offensively and stop Indiana's penetration game from all positions.
Hibbert, I think, will be the individual that causes us the most trouble.
If we lose, it's because Indiana's depth will outlast our reserves - both in terms of energy and our reserve players. They have a versatile and rounded second unit that rebounds and shoots well.
We need the ball to move from Melo's back to the basket game and, as ever, we will rely on team defense and the offense of Smith, Shump and Novak to get us over this injury plagued stage of what has been an absolute ****er of a season.
Need this win, but how much can we get out of Melo and Tyson before we ultimately have to say "take a break" ?
Danny Granger scores 30 points and Knicks win by 10
I'm a little worried about these games on the road they have coming up against good teams. With Lin & Amare the Knicks are easily the 3rd best team in the East, and even without them I believe they have more talent than the Pacers. But it will still be a tough game with the Pacers being at home and looking for revenge from the Knicks sweeping that recent home & home. Carmelo has to really carry the Knicks until at least Amare comes back. He's definitely capable of doing that though. Baron Davis playing efficiently and productively would also go a long way.
Any of you guys bidding on the raffles tonight? With the way the injuries are going, they might be raffling off a spot on the bench before too long.
Hibbert took a stroll with the ball above his head there, no traveling call
