Sean Grande & Cedric Maxwell sat down with ESPN.com's Brian Windhorst to talk all things Celtics/Heat in Miami.
Transcript - Not for consumer use. Robot overlords only. Will not be accurate.
And that. In a two -- nutshell. Was our summer but now we fast forward through tonight live. In real time when the sole property of the play out in front of the entire world Bryant went north from espn.com is here. And this must be refreshing -- -- so proper sense basically people this. Draw on you for LeBron James is the authorities that you cooperative since high school elegant little LeBron James Paul Pierce thing which and it was kind of propaganda -- some of the they are so many million subplots on this night tonight there's Jeff Green there's. So many of them but we have not been able to pulled away from Brad and Jen he said she said give me right off the top. An outsider perspective. Is Boston. Just being the jilted lover in the reaction to rank. No I think they've got some reasons to be upset and and frankly they offer him twice the money. And one of the reasons why didn't wanna stay with if you do want health event in areas coming off the bench. I think really to got to be from my perspective. What we've heard publicly about a -- of the iceberg between what was going on with Reagan felt that last year. And yet they still got within a game of going to the finals -- all what was going on with Avery Bradley hurt and everything like that so. But who definitely chemistry problems within the team if that even more Pelletier -- accomplished last year. I think one of the things are -- look at him enough talk about that that they about Ray Allen let's put in perspective is in weather really was. Re just basically feel like he was -- disrespect. By the team because the possibility of being traded by a meet you -- dorm hall sometimes blame him for not being in the right place. There were times when instead he was isolated -- get GAAP gross out. One of the things -- rate did not miss -- with the fact he could not move really well to get open. So maybe thought was open but he wasn't open because he wasn't moving as well with built bad ankle I think it was a lot of problems they're obviously but that. Definitely goes to show you just how well Doc Rivers did an accurate given them. Where they work. -- Brian is right when he says this the tip of the iceberg there is much much more to come because by the way Rondo hasn't said anything. Yet and that's the operative word up. You have covered. The NBA for so many years and you've been around player -- -- things to say we clearly goes what's he now read between the lines conceived when there were issues when you're not in Boston. The respected his. Re still talking -- -- to shut up and Groupon is the sense you get here he's just trying to get it -- so -- overall or since somebody wants to keep talking about. I don't know re very well let me preface but I still think -- also trying to convince himself in the right decision OK because even yesterday. I don't have kept the psychology degree when he's talking about this ring ceremony before they beat us last year yet. -- -- the heat I think the Celtics -- I don't think it's that simple decision. And I don't think he's necessarily if you -- again and also he's gone through this pre season he has he's looked good he's moved well he is not shot well on this pre season in the way this team is made up. I think great looking and saying you know what I may not end up -- -- hole held a lot of minutes here and I frankly if I don't turn around a little bit I mean that he beat. On the -- in the game so I think. Right now I think -- just need reading it knowing him over the years and see what happens pre season I think ray is just trying to prove to himself. That he made the right decision in part of -- can talk into the media and expressing and I think it's part of maybe the self doubt he's into himself. Get those demons out this is always I think a thing as a player does when he gets straight or he he decides to go someplace else. Did -- make the right decision. Knowing full well that the answers to this question not only could -- but likely will be different. Five years from now in the news tonight. That's supposed to follow -- all star review and then Bryant perspective it's actually really interesting to make him when he comes. Will ray Allen's number he retired by the Celtics. I just don't think that. Maybe it's time that he's been there I think that one that they -- look at. When you say that -- -- that number be retired by the felt there's no question so if Kevin would be retire I distinctive raised Levy. In the way it happened it might few little things where you would -- earth wouldn't you saying if you leave on bad terms that he might help when did you welcome back if you are shipped off. There might take -- maybe 3040 years. Fifty -- Jersey retired. Know why we're talking but before we started and your system that is probably what most people with lack of promotion festive. For common sense of basketball would say -- Again this is an outsider not -- not as part of the driver -- you know anybody outside of health and family. Ray Allen on the best shooters ever play the game is great three point shooter ever seen. His career you'll be a hall of Famer his career with defined by his time in Boston he raised the banner I realize that this that the -- raising banners -- a lot of up there. He raised the banner and his name is on top of that intermediate do you think you'll -- equal partner he was not the twelfth man. So the need I'm not saying it's gonna happen not next year a year after he retires but you know in 20192017. I think everybody will go back and that we did he always said 2012 race department -- -- -- new Englander. I just. If from the conversation seven years I'll be surprised I think it's a no brainer. Everybody says the state. And moving on to beat now everything here tonight is 99% Ray Allen 1% about the action came. Additions and changes again everybody talks about race but isn't the biggest difference between -- in Miami starts this season this year and last year the fact that. The best player in the world is finally embraced it seems the power forward spot and allowed Miami to go small and dominate that way to. They've looked terrific in the pre season another record its form form but if you watch him play. Bosh is playing very well on his role within the perimeter player. Dwyane Wade needs. Is dramatically better than it was last season I've not think -- went to look good. After seasonal wherever right now he looks like he hit 23 years ago and LeBron is facilitating playing inside. Embracing that role basically it's going to be playing. Point power forward -- a position we've never seen anybody play in this league he's gonna play powerful powerful force defensively. For most of that tough parts of the game and played point guard off. Constantly -- the -- that was the -- Magic Johnson. The net adjusting power for dinner at the California definitely guarded got you without regard to make it but I I understand -- -- -- against. They got exactly what I was doing give LeBron credit my my my key to whether LeBron has done is going to be this. -- -- -- Because after you with the Olympics after you get the weight of the world off with your shoulders skip Bayless. Seeing a theme in your bedroom every night and tell you the queen. I think dead. He is there's gonna -- a small hiccup with this thing and even tonight's game. It noted used to give you cupcakes when you play if you win the championship and give your cupcakes the there are no more cupcakes and fell about rake -- the team that wants to probably beat the more than that the other thing for the. Call from I agree and I think that when he came into training camp he was -- and a half speed and I thought. I don't think he's gonna start this season not to dwell on being played is coming off surgery ray was coming off surgery the front nine days off in the off season. Chris Bosh took almost the whole summer -- to -- just -- and that's what I think it's summer but that injury he had last year. And I thought you know they're not gonna stop for a while they're gonna get bombed and opening night and I watched him. And they looked terrific in the pre season I realized evolve and runs came along time what you do and October doesn't matter I'm just telling you. They blew me away with how good they look to receive so. Will say I you know. You make -- you making common sense and I agree with you and I don't know how anybody can play like that Ellen totally their -- Charlotte off to a pre season they can't help what's up. Public key to -- I mean I've been overlooked tremendously Good Charlotte equipment accustomed. I think your point but I'm just understand I was surprised. How good they look considering this is a team that had let down written all over out I looked at the start they're scheduled and they have to go to the West Coast. And only a week and a half. I was like you know they could start five and five. Without really Lincoln and then I -- client and fulfill those tonight on the Celtics up with a highly motivated and they looked pretty impressive to me and everything. Of America popular culture sports culture now. Pair of downtown downtown down and if they somehow survived the suffering and survived to beat me every week and gain redemption. Then they become almost the ultimate hero. Do you sense being around them and media standpoint as much as anybody in the world that it. There was a big part of really wanting to be loved and wanting to beat that guy that -- finally be able to. Sort of realized I just think he doesn't have to live every single moment on the pressure can't do it. And it if he'd have a three game losing streak he's not gonna have to deal with that as much if you know if they have a bad month or something like that -- they get -- to see. It's not gonna be as suffocating as it was in the past because he's proven he can do it cannot. Doctors talked about that he said yesterday. He looks more comfortable in his own skin the -- he can breathe. Rick Popovich says that we see he just looks like he's more relaxed. Music some of the best guys in the minds of the game and I agree with him I think he's more relaxed. And I think that's just taken a weight -- -- you know the margin there now. He didn't have a margin of error before before it was you've got to win you've got to win riding a white horse on the center of the court he -- bit. Not only not only did they win the title he was the MVP of the finals he was tremendous in the Olympics. He's done it and I think it takes the burden office doesn't mean come may and June. And we'll be right back on top of the but he doesn't have to live that played a regular season and no matter what's keeping us or anybody else that. That there's no doubt about it and I truly believe that that is the case with him because. Sean says it best when he said game six in Boston. Was. That this is this your time to take -- -- from my team. And LeBron James came in India was. I thought and -- thought he could do individually what he thought he could do dominate in the most important game. Of his career I think even more than the -- -- you down in the sixth game in Boston Garden. If we need that he did that to me I think has fit him. Far beyond in Alpharma local mountains on the train is going forward. -- Celtics fans have got to witness it firsthand they saw his last year in Cleveland fell almost expects him situation. Heavily favored team Celtics jump ahead to everyone's surprised -- they come home a broad community quite okay he couldn't. To determine the outcome of the game two years later. Going through a huge fire down here in Miami same situation Celtics three to playing well coming back home looks like it's done. The difference of LeBron James was the reason why -- he won the series he wasn't because he had Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh -- because of the difference of LeBron James and the Celtics fans can see that there. You know firsthand they got to watch. If they instead of saying what they have do to win this year what happens at Miami doesn't win this year. The -- I think Celtics are beleaguered team that the team nets at the end last year how many players if they count on. Three. I mean and and -- game seven KG just broke down I mean when they finished the game that they -- like two and a -- player. This is you don't -- breaks -- most quoted settlement mission conference. Well Eastern Conference immediately qualify like that I do think the Celtics -- so much more deeper dynamic I think you're the only. -- touches and these guys I respect the polls. I disagree completely with the idea that Derrick Rose tennis bring back on the court -- respect were like if you wanted to believe. I think this is rebuilding your for him but I do think Celtics and heat and that's going to be the beginning of what could be ten games -- games since.

The Duffel Bag
Notes, announcements in high school sports.
Committed: Milwaukee Riverside junior basketball player Brionna Simond has orally committed to Ball State, Tigers coach Donald Nelson said.
Simond, a 5-foot-5 junior point guard, is averaging 6.6 points, 2.5 rebounds and 2.8 assists per game for Riverside. Simond, who plays with Playground Elite in the off-season, chose Ball State after weighing offers from Evansville and Southern Illinois.
While other Tigers produce more statistically, Simond's ability to lead and hold her teammates accountable is her strength.
"She's the heart and soul of this team," Nelson said.
On sale: All-session and individual session tickets for the WIAA state girls basketball tournament are available. The tournament is March 14-16 at the Resch Center in Ashwaubenon. All tickets are $12 per session. Go to www.ticketstaronline.com or call 1-800-895-0071.
Honored: Ladysmith senior Andrea Ostenso has been named the Gatorade state girls cross country runner of the year for Wisconsin. Ostenso won the Division 3 state title in October and was the fastest competitor from the state at the Foot Locker Midwest Regional championships with her 12th-place finish.
Griffin update: Former state basketball player of the year Nicole Griffin is enjoying her best season at Oklahoma. A junior center, the former Milwaukee Vincent standout ranks second on the team with 11.3 points per game and third with 4.6 rebounds per contest. She is playing 27.9 minutes per game. The Sooners (14-3, 8-2 Big 12) are ranked 16th in the country by the Associated Press.
Flame on: Two former area standouts are making an impact for the Illinois-Chicago women's basketball team this season. Former Milwaukee King standout Rachel Story, a junior transfer from Louisville, leads the Flames in scoring (15.3 ppg) and assists (4.3). Former Milwaukee Pius standout Terri Bender, a freshman, has started nine of 15 games and averages 6.3 points and 2.3 assists per game. She had her best game of the season Saturday when she scored 20 second-half points on 7-for-8 shooting to lead Illinois-Chicago to a 73-62 victory over Loyola.

eh, not for me....besides, that same company is thinking about building this :(
Looks cool, but Mugen really did little to the car.
The Si sedan is really a nice little car. It has balls, corners hard, and the ride is only slightly punishing. But it is loud, and has no low end grunt to speak of. As a daily driver, it makes too many sacrifices. As weekend/fun car, it is not fast enough. But if you cannot afford something faster, it does what it does very well.

More than eight months after an earthquake devastated Haiti, ChildFund's support for the country's most vulnerable children continues apace.
In our work through CBM and the Centre d'Education Speciale (CES), we are seeing signs of progress as children return to school and families adapt new routines. Much work remains amid Haiti's decimated infrastructure.
Yet, there are bright spots. Day care centers for children with injuries and disabilities are operating in six hard-hit areas around Port-Au-Prince. Children attending the centers now have access to therapy, follow-up care and referrals to other health professionals when needed.
Continuing care is especially important for children with epilepsy to ensure regular access to medication. Since last March, a pediatrician and a neurologist have visited one of the centers once a week. Since May a speech therapist has been available twice a week.
In addition, CES has been able to open its doors to other children without disabilities yet in need of a safe haven. Six-year-old Lovely was a student of the College Mixte Evangelique d'Haiti, which collapsed during the earthquake. She lost many friends.
Lovely's mother Evna reports that her daughter has made academic progress at the CES center despite the sad circumstances following the earthquake. During those terrifying moments, Evna and Lovely ran out of the house and spent all day in the street.
Lovely's father used to have a little shop, but all of his merchandise was stolen after the quake. Evna, who had worked as a street vendor, had to stop her commerce activities and devote all of her time to taking care of her three children.
The opening of the child center has provided a safe place for the children to play and learn while Evna and her husband find work and earn money for food and necessities.
It is a hard existence but Lovely and her family have hope for better days.
Six months ago today, the unthinkable happened to a city where chaotic conditions were already the norm. On Jan.12, a 7.0 earthquake wracked Haiti's capital, Port-au-Prince, killing more than 200,000 people and leaving about 2 million homeless.
Within days after the quake, ChildFund partnered with CBM, whose particular focus is on people with disabilities. CBM has worked in Haiti for 30 years, and some of its efforts in Haiti are specifically geared toward children, who are doubly vulnerable. One of these, the Centre d'Education Speciale (Center for Special Education, or CES), was destroyed in the earthquake. ChildFund and CBM immediately planned a six-month project in which the partners would set up and run Child-Centered Spaces, providing child-friendly spaces around the city. Additional services include maintaining medication of children with epilepsy, medical assessments and physical therapy. The first Child-Centered Space was up and running in February, and six more were added in the spring and early summer.
Ten-year-old Saraudju had been a student of the CES for three and a half years when the quake struck. The school had become an important touchstone for this shy little girl who has a hard time making eye contact.
"Before the quake, the school was really helping Saraudju," says her mother, Guilaine, a single parent with three other children. "She was becoming more and more interested in learning names, and she was asking more and more questions. Her confidence was growing, and she was specifically asking for things she wanted, which she never used to do."
But then the school was gone, and, with it, Guilaine's ability to tackle the tasks of rebuilding the family's lives: finding food, work and a safe place to live. Her older three children could take care of themselves, but there was nowhere for Saraudju to go – until the Child-Centered Spaces opened.
Now, Guilaine reports that when she picks Saraudju up after activities, the little girl is full of excited chatter about what they did that day and what she looks forward to on the next.
If the images of the devastation were hard for us to look at on screens or news pages, imagine what Saraudju – and all the children who survived the quake – saw on a daily basis, especially in those early days. It's remarkable that children have the capacity to rebound, to be "full of excited chatter," no matter how dire their circumstances or how enormous the trauma. ChildFund seeks to support this kind of resilience.
Psychological trauma is a huge issue throughout the city, so the psychosocial support services provided in the Child-Centered Spaces since their inception has been integral. Beginning in April, CBM added psychosocial support for the staff as well.
ChildFund and CBM further adapted their plan by extending it another three months. The CES has yet to be allocated land for rebuilding, and school vacations run from August through October, so an added infusion of children needing the Child-Centered Spaces is likely.
Recovery is slow going. The quake turned some 200,000 buildings into 17 million cubic meters of rubble. The AP news service reports today that only 2 percent of debris has been cleared. "Reconstruction is still mostly a concept," they write.
But the epidemics that many feared would follow the quake didn't happen. Schools have opened. Children are playing together in Child-Centered Spaces. In one of them, sheltered by a tent amid the rubble, Saraudju smiles.

Junie is a shy 16-year-old with a smile that lights up her face. She also has a cognitive delay and learning difficulties. Junie used to attend the Centre d'Education Special (CES), but since it collapsed in the earthquake on Jan. 12, she has been coming to a Child Centered Space operating in a tent.
Because her house collapsed during the earthquake, Junie lives with her mother, father and older sister on the street, and no one has been able to help them find permanent shelter. Her mother bought plastic sheets to build their new "house."
Junie talks a lot about her mom, whom she loves very much. She used to help her mother with household chores, like cleaning and cooking. Now that Junie's family is living on the street, she describes everything as "more difficult" but she hopes that one day she can have a new home where she can help her mom again.
Five days a week Junie attends the programs at the Child Centered Space, which ChildFund helped establish, and participates in activities such as coloring, counting, reading and writing. She regularly sits next to her friend Viola, who is also a student of the former CES.
Junie says she is happy to come to the center, but she misses the old CES building because of its large classrooms. She also misses the large garden where she played with her schoolmates. The tent is "small and so hot inside," she says.
Her mother confirms, "We highly value the service that CES is offering us now. They are trying to give continuity to special education for our children, but we need more space and more teachers."
Junie loves jumping rope and playing hide and seek with her friends in the small garden adjacent to the tent. She shares that she would like to become a doctor, and she knows that she should study hard to realize this dream. She says that when she becomes a doctor she will earn lots of money to rebuild her parents' house.
When asked what she remembers of Jan. 12, Junie's smile disappears from her face. She recalls that when the earthquake began she was at home with her older sister. Junie was washing dishes and her sister was doing laundry.
Suddenly the house started shaking and scared them, so she started shouting, pleading for help. Fortunately, the two girls escaped from the house before it collapsed.
Junie says that her neighbors all died during the terrible earthquake and she remembers being surrounded by people crying and shouting in pain. She laments briefly that now she has no more clothes or toys because they are all under the rubble.
Her parents do not have work now. They are living with the little money they had saved from their jobs before the earthquake, as well as money they have been given by friends. Junie's mother used to sell used clothing downtown and her father worked for a company.
Her mother explains that life was not easy before the earthquake, but now it is even more difficult. She and her husband are waiting for their home's rubble to be cleared so they can put a tent on the land that belongs to them and to start to live again with dignity.

In the aftermath of the devastating earthquake in Haiti, a young girl named Kimberly recovers from a crushed leg.
She and many other children are forced to survive in a temporary tent as their parents forage for food and seek jobs. The children have no home and no school to go to. Their toys are gone. And they don't know where their friends are.
But thanks to ChildFund, CBM and our donors, these children meet daily in tents known as Child Friendly Spaces.
Ron Nabors, CEO of CBM, is visiting ChildFund International offices in Richmond this week to share firsthand the work that the partnership is delivering in Haiti.
"The impact from this disaster is far worse on the child than on the adult," Nabors says. "What we are doing is giving hope and security to these children and keeping them on track for the future."
At the Child Friendly Spaces, the children play, learn, laugh and end the day with a smile. "The children can sit together and have some social interaction in a safe place," he says.
The partnership between ChildFund and CBM is "fairly unusual and exciting," Nabors relates.
"We've set an example for other NGOs to partner together and make a difference for those who really need help," he told ChildFund employees gathered on Thursday.
He notes that both organizations follow a sustainability model. "We don't want to just be a charity."
That's why the Child Friendly Spaces are so important. "They provide a safe haven during this awful chaos," he says.
In addition to providing for children's daily needs, CBM is maintaining a database of children in need that it shares with Haitian authorities and UN agencies. "We don't want children to get lost," Nabors explains.
To date, four Child Friendly Spaces are up and running, serving 450 children. The goal is to have 10 up by year's end.
The next steps are to transition from recovery to reconstructing lives and enabling the children to return to schools. ChildFund and CBM will continue to partner in this effort.
ChildFund donors have generously donated almost $1.3 million to help children in Haiti. "It scares me to think where these children would be if we [CBM, ChildFund and the donors] had not done what we did," Nabors says.
But through the partnership and the generosity of donors, positive signs have begun to happen at the Child Friendly Spaces, Nabors says. "Smiles start to creep onto their faces in the midst of all this chaos."

During my three weeks in Haiti, I've been working with Marie Marthe, an employee of the Centre d'Education Special (CES), to set up Child Centered Spaces. CES works with children who need special education and provides a variety of services based on the child's age and disability.
The earthquake destroyed the CES building, and it will have to be rebuilt. ChildFund is supporting the establishment of Child Centered Spaces and the eventual reconstruction of the CES building. During this transition time, Marie Marthe is adapting her normal work to become coordinator of the Child Centered Spaces.
Marie Marthe started working for CES 22 years ago, so I asked her a bit about her job. "My first day, I said to myself, 'This is for me!' From the first moment, I loved it. I'd never seen such children, and it was the perfect environment in the CES classes for their development and care."
Marie Marthe trained as an early childhood specialist while teaching, and eventually she began training new teachers at CES. She is proud of the 10 integrated schools that CES operates in partnership with the Haitian government to make sure that children of different learning abilities are cared for and can reach their full potential.
I asked Marie Marthe how the earthquake affected her and her family, "It was a surprise. No one knew it would happen. We lost a lot of people, and we love life, so to lose someone is very hard for us."
But rather than recount the details of her personal losses, she prefers to focus on gratitude for the international response to Haiti. "I am so thankful to the world for bringing us help. I have no idea how we could have recovered without such attention, especially for the children. I am especially thankful to the children of Holland who sent the drawings for our centers."
A nurse who worked for CBM in Haiti just after the earthquake delivered the drawings from Holland, and they now brighten our first Child Centered Space.
Haiti is living through an overwhelming disaster that will require years of recovery. Yet, by working with dedicated people like Marie Marthe, we can help the most vulnerable survivors.

You only have to sit with someone long enough to learn of the extraordinary heroics undertaken when the earthquake struck — some by the smallest of children.
At the Child Centered Space ChildFund helped open, we asked a few children to come with their parents and talk to a media team visiting from CBM Canada.
One very well-dressed young lad, Lorenzo, told me he was eight as we sat down to explore his story with his mother. She then told us that even as the ground was moving, Lorenzo had run back into their house to save his 3-year-old sister. In doing so, he lost his right foot.
Lorenzo was not smiling when he arrived at the center earlier that morning. When we asked him what was wrong, he sadly told us that he would never play football again. His mother told us he used to play every day with the neighborhood boys, and even would play ball by himself if there was no one to play with.
It's difficult to tell a child who has lost his foot that a prosthetic will allow him to play again.
Instead, I asked him if he wanted to draw. A smile broke across his face — the first I'd seen. He played with the children for hours, then wanted to be interviewed for the cameras with his mother.
Later, as they departed, Lorenzo's mother said they'd be back every day we were open. Lorenzo grabbed my hand, "Thank you," he said in English.
Lorenzo's family lives in a car on the edge of the largest camp in Port-au-Prince. I met the sister he saved and his grandmother. They all share the car — for sleeping, shade from the sun and mealtimes.
Yet, the family is grateful not to have lost a single member, thanks to the life-saving intervention of Lorenzo, a hero at age eight.

Last week I was privileged to join others for a meeting with Haiti's Secretary of State for the Integration of People with Disability within the Ministry of Social Affairs.
Secretary Michel Pean recapped the impact of the earthquake on those with disabilities.
"Very quickly all establishments taking care of the disabled were destroyed," he said. "Staff died, and new people became handicapped. In addition, hundreds of thousands were displaced, without homes, in need of services, and this is a serious difficulty for the handicapped and elderly, as they have no access to this humanitarian assistance."
ChildFund is establishing 10 Child Centered Spaces with our local partner. Our priorities are to find the former students and reach out to all children affected by the earthquake and subsequent displacement from their homes.

Anne continues work in Haiti, collaborating with CBM, ChildFund's partner on the ground.
There is so much work still to do here.
Yesterday, I had the privilege of accompanying one of the physiotherapists who has come to work with CBM after the earthquake. David, 23, from England, holds a bachelor's degree in physiotherapy.
I watch David handle patients carefully, telling them quietly which exercises to do. The women in this ward repeat his instructions in English after David works with them. "Eat, drink, exercise!" they say with smiles. Yet, many of the women relate horrible stories, especially of the number of days it took to get treatment. But they are grateful to have received treatment at all.
Gloria, 26, tells me: "We are so grateful to the foreigners who come here. It is so nice that you are here. Thank you." She waited eight days to see a doctor for her injuries. In this medical rehabilitation area, Gloria rests in a handmade traction kit, which David verifies is hanging correctly. Gloria is a new patient, transferred to this NGO rehabilitation space from an overloaded hospital that lacks time, staff and space to care for post-operative patients.
After studying Gloria's X-rays, David suddenly turns to the interpreter: "What did you say — that the doctor told her she can start walking?"
David points out to me the fracture in Gloria's pelvis. Two X-rays, taken three weeks apart, show that the bones are not setting properly. David says that she should not move at all, not for a while. He tells me that he needs the doctor to reinforce his instructions, as Gloria might not stay in bed if a doctor has said otherwise.
A physician is located and David shows him what he's spotted on the X-ray. "Ah, good catch," the doctor says, "I didn't see that." The doctor instructs Gloria not to walk, and to obey all instructions that David gives her.
Gloria smiles at me, "Eat, drink, exercise!" she says. The walking will have to wait, but she will heal properly with this kind of care.
Every day more patients arrive at the 12 rehabilitation areas where CBM and Handicap International have arranged for physical and occupational therapists like David to assist with the overwhelming demand.
This is David's first emergency response. "Haitians seem so unified in helping one another; I didn't expect this," he says. "But everyone seems to be doing what they can to help one another."

Anne is in Haïti this week, working with CBM, ChildFund's partner on the ground.
Before I left, friends said to me that they did not understand what anyone was actually accomplishing in Haiti. All one hears on the news is how little is getting done, how horrible it is.
Having been here only three days, I can only report what I witness. What I am seeing getting done looks superhuman to me.
Imagine all public buildings collapsed or so damaged that people cannot go in. Most government records are inaccessible or gone. Imagine sleeping outside because you are afraid another tremor might occur at night. Add a breakdown in water, electricity and cell phone coverage, and you have a picture of Port-au-Prince right after the earthquake.
One month on, some residents have moved to the countryside, but many remain in scattered hillsides and parcels of land in the capital. There are literally thousands of locals and foreigners who are working together to quickly supply — and slowly rebuild — areas of the city.
One month on, the emergency response includes food distribution, constructing shelters and managing the hygiene and safety of hundreds of large camps. Electric and water service is returning to some parts of the city, some hours each day. Cell phone coverage is improving.
One month on, thousands of people speaking two out of the three operational languages here (French, English and Creole) share information and learning — both by Internet and in meetings tents and hospitals. They bemoan the numbers who still need assistance and the traffic snarls they as aid workers contribute to.
One month on, schools are not open. Those with disabilities — already among the poorest Haitians receiving only the most basic of services — will have their ranks swelled by those newly disabled in the earthquake. Their advocacy network is largely gone. It is now known that the Ministry of Social Affairs, which completely collapsed, took 29 civil servants' lives with it.
How does one recover?
Slowly, with infinite patience and grace. As one civil affairs official told me yesterday: "Thank you so much for coming to help us in Haiti. We are so grateful for the attention and assistance."
Today has been declared a National Day of Mourning in Haiti. I am reflecting on what I've witnessed during my short time here, and how to best demonstrate solidarity and kindness.

As earthquake relief and recovery efforts enter their fourth week in Haiti, ChildFund and its partner CBM are continuing to aid those with disabilities and disabling injuries.
"Children with disabilities are particularly vulnerable in emergency situations and require focused protection measures," notes Anne Edgerton, ChildFund's disaster management team leader.
The Haiti earthquake resulted in high rates of orthopedic injuries. Untreated for days and weeks, broken and badly injured limbs can develop gangrenous infections. The total number of amputees due to the earthquake could stretch into tens of thousands, Dr. Ronald Waldman of USAID told Reuters news service.
One Haitian physician told Reuters that the earthquake has created a generation of amputees, many of them young, who will need care for years to come.
"Attention to these issues early on is crucial," says Edgerton, "because children who have injuries and other disabilities are more likely to be overlooked in relief efforts."
CBM and ChildFund are coordinating relief efforts with Haiti's Secretariat for Inclusion of People with Disabilities and other local and international humanitarian aid groups.
We are also supporting the Centre d'Education Special, which provided services to 500 children with disabilities in Port-au-Prince before the earthquake hit. "Now, with renewed attention and resources after this disaster, children with disabilities and injuries — as well as other community children in need — will be located and included in rehabilitation support appropriate to their needs," Edgerton says.

Yes. Eating sugar doesn't cause diabetes and people with diabetes do not need to have a sugar-free diet. It's okay to have foods like chocolate and cakes occasionally alongside a healthy diet. Remember sugary foods provide empty calories. So it depends how often you drink tea, and how balanced the remainder of your diet is. If you have a well balanced nutritionally rich diet, the occaional cup of tea with a teaspoon of sugar will do no harm.
As with fruit juice, you can have sugar within your tea if you are diabetic. You just need to monitor the amount. If you have six cups a day, with four spoons of sugar in each, you can see how that little bit of sugar can start adding up. During the course of the day this can lead to excessive intake. But just a little bit of sugar in tea should be fine.
It is all about monitoring sugar intake throughout the day with diabetes, but if you do not have much through other meals, a little bit in your tea should be fine.
Hi, Diabetes Australia recommends a daily "glycemic load" (GL) of less than 80 and a teaspoon of sugar is a GL of 4.
Here's how it works … the glycemic load reflect both quantity of carbohydrate and quality of carbohydrate (its glycemic index, or GI). The glycemic load = GI mutliplied by the carbohydrates (in grams) divided by 100. Sugar has a GI of about 100 (everything else is compared to this) whereas carbohydrates that are not absorbed as easily / quickly by the gut have a lower GI. For example, 1 teaspoon of sugar has a Glycemic load of 4 which is about the same as two teaspoons of honey.
So you can have sugar in your tea, absolutely, but instead of carbs elsewhere. Becoming familiar with different foods' GI's can help you make those choices at the supermarkets, good luck!

Obviously not sugar in your TEA please. However, as Arlene said " It's okay to have foods like chocolate and cakes occasionally alongside a healthy diet. Remember sugary foods provide empty calories." Beacause drinking sugar added tea will straightway increase your blood sugar level and that will create more pressure on Panecrea. In long run this is not good for your helth. That may lead to defunction of natural insulin production in the body. Instead sugar pls have some light cockies with minimal sugar. http://www.livescience.com/36188-sugar-bad.html

As a 15-year-old student, he was arrested during the non-cooperation movement in 1921. On being asked for his surname, he replied 'Azad' (whereas, his original surname was Tiwari). The provoked judge sentenced him to 15 lashes of flogging. That's how the name stuck to Freedom Martyr, Chandra Shekar Azad.

Goof While Painting Kitchen Cabinets
Hi all,
Just joined forum. Looks like a good one!
Can anyone please advise me as to how my husband and I who have been in kitchen remodel from ___ for over 6 months can fix a few of our cabinets that look like this. I'm inserting link to it on flickr. http://www.flickr.com/photos/30818010@N07/5076571240/
I plan on leaving it up for a long time bc it'll go in my blog eventually. Anyhew....I was sanding out mistakes from subpar spray job with cheapo Wagoner Sprayer that no amount of thinner could make work when I discovered I liked the distressed sand thru look. Huband and I sanded our hearts out by hand and with orbital sander using 220 grit. In some cases sanding took it down to the bare wood (maybe orbital sander too harsh and then I didn't feather it using higher grit).
My husband used a better sprayer to do second layer of paint (we did not prime this time, but we did prime before initial spray job that turned out so poorly). I'm much happier with this time- not alot of orange peel effect or drips. Looks nice except for thinner areas that reveal where I previously sanded to wood. I was planning on doing sand thru, but not one this large.
Any help is very appreciated! Thanks!
PS -Primelock primer used (oil based, but can take a latex top coat- a BM product). Then used BM Muralo Waterbourne Latex paint that dries fast and is harder than alot of other latexes. Also is supposed to self level fairly well.

Relay Matrix Switch, 16 x 16
Manufacturer's part number :
Description :
The Keysight Technologies E1465A Relay Matrix Switch is a C-size, 1-slot, register-based VXI module. This 16 x 16 matrix switches each crosspoint both high and low. The E1465A features easy expansion to larger matrixes via a chaining cable that allows you to interconnect rows and columns on different modules. A full E1401B 13-slot mainframe can have up to 3072 two-wire crosspoints.
The E1465A module provides the best cost-per-crosspoint for large matrix applications. It shares the same switch card with the E1466A and E1467A; each product's unique terminal block determines the matrix configuration. Therefore, you can change matrix topology simply by plugging in the various terminal blocks. The terminal blocks can be obtained separately. Creating a matrix as large as 32 x 32 requires four matrix modules and interconnected rows and columns on the terminal blocks. All the E1465/66/67A matrix modules offer similar densities, with different row/column sizes and identical performance specifications. All specifications are identical for this family, except for crosstalk.

This product really does seem to have reduced my previously constant joint pain. My only problem with it is taking 3 (and originally 6) rather large pills per day. They're not the largest ones I've tried (I had a multi-vitamin that was larger), but when you're trying to take these and daily vitamins...smaller or fewer would be nice. They do help, though. I will be trying a liquid glucosamine/chondrotin/MSM as an alternative next time.

text: The range of furniture in The Frick Collection is typical of a grand New York residence at the beginning of the twentieth century; a comparable variety of periods and places of origin could be found among the furniture in J. P. Morgan's house and library. Henry Clay Frick brought together French, Italian, and English furniture of the Renaissance to the nineteenth century, choosing examples that complemented his painting and sculpture collections. The historical pieces he acquired were interspersed with furniture designed and made especially for the house by its architects and interior designers.

Just hours after a police officer warned about the speed some log trucks are being driven at in Northland, another one crashed.
A Whangarei man suffered suspected neck injuries when the log truck he was driving rolled on State Highway One near Waiharara, about 20km north of Kaitaia, on Monday.
A Houhora Fire Force crew had to cut the driver from the cab. St John paramedics treated him at the scene before taking him to Kaitaia Hospital. The truck and trailer is owned by a Ruakaka company.
The crash happened after Houhora's resident police officer, Senior Constable Tracee Knowler, said on her police Facebook site she was concerned about complaints she was receiving about log trucks on Aupouri Peninsula. "People are concerned about the speed at which some of these trucks are being driven, including through the 50km/h zone at Pukenui, and the manner of driving, such as tailgating and trailers running off the side of the road in front of following traffic," she said.
She had contacted all the logging companies she could identify last week. "Most of them were receptive, one local company even saying that it would check the trucks' GPS units. They have an internal system where the drivers have fines deducted from their wages if it is found that they have been speeding," she said.
"On the other hand, one of the biggest companies didn't show much interest in their drivers keeping to the speed limits, but were of the opinion it is up to me [the police] to catch them. Apparently we should just put more camera cars and patrol cars on the roads up here - basically a 'catch us if you can' approach."
Ms Knowler commended the companies checking their trucks' GPS units but an issue on the peninsula was roadworks from Te Kao south, with temporary speed restrictions ranging from 30 to 50km/h. "Unless all the areas with temporary speed restrictions are loaded into the GPS then the truck can still maintain its open road speed of 90km/h through them without being detected, so they don't give an accurate account of the vehicle's speed," she said.
"Since posting the news/photo of yesterday's crash on the Houhora Facebook page there has been passionate discussion over what/who is to blame, most blaming the condition of the roads but at the same time blaming the roadworks, if that makes sense.
"What amazes me about blaming the roads is that the basic guideline of driving safe, and what we all teach our kids, is to drive to the conditions, so if it's a crap corner or stretch of road then slow down and you won't fall off."

Explosions and street fighting grip Yemen capital
By Mohamed Sudam and Mohammed Ghobari
SANAA (Reuters) - Renewed fighting in Yemen's capital between a powerful tribal group and President Ali Abdullah Saleh's forces has killed at least 19 people this week and rocked Sanaa with explosions, officials said on Wednesday.
World powers have been pressing Saleh to sign a Gulf-led deal to end his three-decade rule and stem spreading chaos in unstable Yemen, a haven for al Qaeda militants and neighbor to the world's biggest oil exporter, Saudi Arabia.
Kuwait, part of the Gulf Cooperation Council that tried unsuccessfully to broker a power transfer deal, said it had evacuated its diplomats from Yemen. Qatar, another GCC member, also suspended most operations there. Italy has shut its mission, citing threats against Western embassies.
Witnesses said they heard several blasts but were not sure of the cause or damage near the Hasaba district, the focal point of fighting last week that killed at least 115 people and pushed the country closer to civil war.
"There are very powerful explosions. Sounds like missiles or mortars. May God protect us," a Hasaba resident said.
After a lull of several hours, large blasts began shaking northern Sanaa and nearby areas late on Wednesday, residents said. There was no immediate report of casualties or damage.
This week, there have been three main flashpoints in the country -- the fighting in the capital, government troops gunning down protesters in Taiz in the south and a battle with al Qaeda and Islamic militants in the coastal city of Zinjibar.
Residents also reported overnight fighting near Sanaa airport, which was closed briefly last week during skirmishes between Saleh's forces and opponents within the powerful Hashed tribal confederation, who are led by Sadeq al-Ahmar. Continued...

Chesterfield Square, a brownfield project in Los Angeles, has received a Phoenix Award from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and International City/County Management Association.
Long Beach, Calif.-based SCS Engineers designed and orchestrated the project. The company accepted a Community Impact Award, recognizing exceptional projects in smaller communities, at the 2005 U.S. Brownfields Conference in November, for its work at the site. Located on the southwest corner of Western and Slauson Avenues in south Los Angeles, Chesterfield Square is a 325,000-square-foot retail complex sited on 31 acres, anchored by a grocery store, hardware store, fast-food restaurants, and other businesses. Previously, the property had housed a lumber mill, dairy creamery, shopping center, metal reclamation yard, and other long-defunct businesses.
At the onset of the project, engineers had to deal with underground storage tanks that harbored petroleum hydrocarbons and various hazardous materials. They removed the tanks and worked closely with the Los Angeles Regional Water Quality Control Board to ensure the remediation effort was successful and compliant. SCS also provided oversight during asbestos abatement and collected clearance samples.
The award is SCS's second commendation for work on a brownfield project in 2005. The PETCO Park and East Village revitalization project recently received a Phoenix Award for its positive affect on a formerly neglected area of San Diego.

Stepfather of Shasta College Football Player Tyler Burton: "Progress is a Miracle"
REDDING, Calif. - The stepfather of Shasta College football player, Tyler Burton, tells KRCR News Channel Seven in an exclusive interview that he is making progress every day.
The 21-year-old was attacked the night of October 27 in downtown Chico. His alleged attacker is 20-year-old Andres Rodriguez.
Burton suffered a stroke and severe brain damage, leaving him paralyzed on the left side of his body.
His step-dad, Roddy Hash, said he and Burton's mom, Kim, got a call in the middle of the night from a surgeon.
"He told us that her son was assaulted in Chico, California and that he needed to have an immediate operation to take a portion of his skull off to relieve the pressure and that he was also in a coma," he said.
Burton's parents took the next flight to Chico from Washington and haven't left since.
For weeks, Burton was kept in the intensive care unit at Enloe Medical Center. After some time, doctors began to lose hope.
Burton was transferred from Enloe Medical Center in Chico to Vibra Rehabilitation Hospital in Redding on Thursday afternoon.
Hash said he cannot believe where they are right now. "The day before Thanksgiving, they pretty much told us that he was going to pass; that he would basically slowly fall asleep and that he would die," Hash said.
Burton's parents started preparing for the worst, even looking into organ donation.
Doctors did their final operation putting his skull cap back on. Three days later, things changed drastically.
"For the first time he started doing things on command like, 'Hey Tyler, raise your thumb up,'and he raised his thumb. Then his eyes changed and he could actually follow us," Hash said.
Burton is now making incredible progress.
"The same doctor that came out and found the family about 12 midnight, we were all there, said 'I just want you to know, we've used every tool in the box. There's nothing else we can do for your son.' Well, that same doctor came in the night before we transported him [to Vibra on Thursday] and said that, 'I can't believe this kid's alive and I'm blown away by how he's doing," Hash said.
Now that he is at Vibra, Burton will work on gaining strength. Hash said he's there "to stimulate every part of his brain, his throat, his vocal cords. He has a vocal therapist coming in. He doesn't speak very much but it's very 'whispery' speaking."
Hash said he and Burton's parents, Kim and Roger, are overwhelmed by the amount of support they have gotten.
"We've been getting cards from all over the United States. We don't even know who these people are," Hash said.
For more information on Burton's progress or to donate to their family:
There is a fundraiser for Tyler Burton in Redding on Saturday to help with his medical bills.
It's being held at Dutch Brother Coffee on Churn Creek Road. They are selling bracelets and t-shirts.
It starts at 11 a.m. and will go until they sell out of items.

green tree not posting payments,forclosure,difficult to deal with,not helpful,rood, Rapid City South Dakota Nationwide
Does your business have a bad reputation?
Fix it the right way.
Corporate Advocacy Program™
In 2006 I lost a house and never missed a payment and was never late we came home one day and everything was gone also, I had proof of all payments for 7 years and still lost the house. Sadly this is still happening today 8 years later. My mortgage currently is with Green tree and I was one payment behind when out of the blue they said I was three months behind as thery are famous for not posting payments as other people have complained about. I have sent five diffenrent faxes of 30 page doccuments that they asked for and everytime they say they did not recieve them even when I recieved confromation the faxes went thru. I talked to a supervisor and explained what was happening and her response was well we want to make sure people really want to keep there home like they are doing this on purpose was my opinion.
I have been approched by others who say they have never missed a payment or been late and are in forclosure something has to be done about this. It is very dissapointing when you see high level empoyees recieving high bonuses for there high forclosure rate this allows people to do what ever possible to recieve these bonuses

If you want to lose weight you have to do more physical activities to help burn those unwanted calories. Walking is one of the easiest and earth-friendly ways to lose weight. There is no need to buy any exercise equipment to perform this exercise routine. It is a fact that exercise equipment are expensive, the thought of " sell my annuity" to purchase one would make you think twice.
Signing up on regular gym sessions would also require you to spend money. But you would not worry about these things if you engage in "walking" regularly to burn calories. You can walk around the park or your neighborhood. You can walk during your lunch break or after work. There is no reason why you won't be able to exercise because you can do it anytime you want.

Clive, Iowa, residents reach into their own pockets to keep a popular bike trail open for runners, walkers, and cross-country skiers.
For example, a few years ago runners told the park board and city council they wanted the snow cleared faster, recalls Jeff Thielen, parks maintenance supervisor for the 15,000-resident Des Moines suburb. "But funding was an issue. The running group donated about $5,000 so we could buy a Bobcat Toolcat 5600 [utility work machine] and snowblower attachment. Now everyone's pleased with what we've done on the trail."
"The trail is nice to have in the winter," says runner Ed Bell. "Runners don't have to worry about dodging cars."
Donating money for trail upkeep is nothing new for the running group, which sponsors an annual walk/run and donates the profits to the city. Bell currently serves as the race director.
The paved asphalt Greenbelt bike trail traverses the city, generally following the meandering Walnut Creek. Before the Toolcat 5600, users had to wait until the snow melted before getting on.
"At times they had to wait weeks," says Thielen. "With the utility work machine and snowblower, we're able to provide the services the community wants."
Have Clive residents set a precedent for funding services? Time will tell.

Amazon has confirmed the acquisition of Double Helix Games for both its talent and intellectual property.
"Amazon has acquired Double Helix as part of our ongoing commitment to build innovative games for customers," Amazon said in a statement to TechCrunch.
Double Helix Games is a game studio that arose from the fusion of The Collective, Inc. and Shiny Entertainment in 2007, which in the past have delivered popular game titles such as "Indiana Jones and the Emperor's Tomb," "Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith," and "Buffy the Vampire Slayer," and "Earthworm Jim," "Sacrifice, MDK" and "Enter the Matrix," respectively.
The company now employs 27 people and all of them will be joining Amazon, but operations will stay at its Orange County headquarters.
More recently, Double Helix Games' was responsible for titles such as "Killer Instinct," "G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra," "Green Lantern: Rise of the Manhunters," "Silent Hill: Homecoming," and "Front Mission Evolved," and another title, "Strider," that's scheduled to be released for the PlayStation 3 this month.
The acquisition was set be announced at a joint event by the two companies of February 13, 2014.
This acquisition bolsters rumors that Amazon is working on its very own games console. Last week, VG247 reported that Amazon is building an Android-based games machine, and said that game publishers have already received a prototype of the console which looks something like a PSOne redesign – grey in colour, oblong in shape and with sharp edges, and expected to cost around $300 when it launches later this year.
Double Helix Games could be incorporated into Amazon Game Studios, which has largely failed to come up with any enticing titles. The acquisition could help Amazon launch games for other consoles, as well as developing titles for its own rumored console.
