|Mike Petraglia, Sam Packard on Isaiah Thomas, Kelly Olynyk, what's ahead for Celtics
|03.21.16 at 11:50 pm ET
WEEI.com's Mike Petraglia and Sam Packard break down the big performances of Isaiah Thomas (28 points) and Kelly Olynyk (22 points off the bench) in the Celtics' 107-96 win over the Magic on Monday night at TD Garden. The win lifts the Celtics to 41-30 on the season, and keeps them in the hunt for a top-four spot in the Eastern Conference playoff race. Next up, the division-leading Raptors, a team the Celtics haven't beaten this season in three tries, on Wednesday night at TD Garden.
|Kelly Olynyk does away with shoulder brace, gets 'back in rhythm' with 22-point effort in win
|at 11:46 pm ET
In the previous three games with a black shoulder sleeve/brace protecting his injured right shoulder, Kelly Olynyk didn't look like himself.
The best 3-point shooter on the team (41.3 percent) before his Feb. 10 injury against the Clippers could barely reach the rim with authority on his shot. And he knew it.
He made just one of ten from beyond the arc in losses against the Thunder and Raptors and a win over the Sixers Sunday night, including misses on all four tries in Philadelphia. He was just 5-of-22 overall (22.7 percent).
Something had to change so on Monday, before the game against the Magic, Olynyk decided to go without the brace and the impact was noticeable starting with shootaround, where he was getting more lift on his shot.
It paid off when he hit his first two shots from beyond the arc. He was in a rhythm and that propelled him to a 22-point night off the bench in Boston's 107-96 win over the Magic at TD Garden.
"Yeah, just getting out there, back in the rhythm, back in motion, yeah, it was better range of motion without the shirt on, definitely. And just went out there and played confidently," Olynyk said.
"If you miss six weeks of basketball, you're going to be rusty when you get back," coach Brad Stevens added. "Every game you play, every practice you have, you feel a little bit better. You don't know when that's really going to happen, especially with an upper-body injury where you haven't been able to shoot much. But you knew it was going to come around at some point."
|Jonas Jerebko 'cleared' for return vs. Magic, Jae Crowder to travel on West Coast trip
|at 6:43 pm ET
The Celtics will get a key part of their bench back when they take on the Magic at TD Garden.
Brad Stevens confirmed before Monday's game that that the 6-foot-10 power forward will be available off Boston's bench after missing the last three games with a sore Achilles that forced him to stay back in Boston and receive extensive treatment.
The Celtics missed him in losses to the more versatile Thunder on Wednesday and the Raptors on Friday. The Celtics were able to compensate against the 61-loss 76ers on Sunday.
"Jonas is, from everything I've been told, cleared to play tonight," Stevens said.
Jerebko is averaging just 4.4 points and 3.5 rebounds in 66 games this season but gives Stevens an important matchup tool against the longer front courts they face.
As for Jae Crowder, the starting swingman is still undergoing treatment on the high sprain of his right ankle. He suffered the injury against the Rockets on March 11 and has missed the last four games after starting in Boston's first 66 games. The team is sticking to the minimum prognosis of two weeks to heal enough to return to game action.
"Jae is progressing well," Stevens said. "We think he's about on the same timetable that I initially gave you. Obviously, he's going to end up being two [weeks] this week. Minimum of two [weeks] but most likely that's a very, very conservative estimate."
"I haven't even seen him. I just get told that he's improved. We've been gone. He's been here with our trainers so I get a daily update. I saw him today, real briefly, before he went back into his rehab. He said he's feeling better. There's a big difference between that and playing in a game."
Stevens said he's not going to get involved in trying to adjust the timetable, should Crowder push the team to rush him back to action.
"I don't even get into it. That's our doctors and our trainers and our players," Stevens said. "I think my best job is to stay away from getting in the middle of those conversations because I know he really wants to play. I know he wants to expedite that. But as a coach, I have to trust all those guys to make the right decision."
The most encouraging news Monday was Stevens' declaration that Crowder would be making the five-game trip out West, starting Saturday in Phoenix.
"For sure, it's a long trip. And it's within that timeframe where he could play again so who knows when but certainly the plan is to take him on the trip."
Kelly Olynyk is another player trying to find his rhythm after suffering a right shoulder injury on Feb. 10. Olynyk missed 12 games before returning against the Pacers last Tuesday. He is still struggling to find his offensive rhythm, as indicated by his 0-for-4 performance from 3-point range (2-for-8 overall) Sunday night in Philadelphia. In three games back, Olynyk has made just five of 22 shots from the floor (22.7 percent) and just one of his 10 attempts from beyond the arc.
"You have to ask him," Stevens said of Olynyk's comfort level. "I'm not sure. That would be a question for him. I think he's looking fine. I think his shot looks good. It's just probably feel for him to see a few go down."
|5 things we learned in Celtics' win over Magic
|12.17.14 at 9:54 pm ET
After putting a stop to their three-game skid in Philly, the Celtics grabbed another win at the TD Garden against the Magic on Wednesday night, 109-92 (click here for the box score).
The home squad outscored Orlando 31-19 in the fourth quarter to close out the game, something the team has struggled with so far this season. Brandon Bass led the Celtics with 18 points off the bench, while Jared Sullinger and Jeff Green each had 16 points.
Here's five things we learned in the win:
On a night when trade rumors surrounding Rondo came to light, the point guard came to play. Rondo shot an efficient 6-for-12 from the field en route to 13 points, 15 assists and seven rebounds. Despite six turnovers, Rondo had fantastic command of the game. For one of the first times this season, it seemed he had control over both scoring the ball and getting his teammates involved — a great sign from Rondo.
Tyler Zeller scored a quick four points for the Celtics on the first two possessions of the game, followed by nine straight Sullinger points. On the opposite side, Nikola Vucevic and Channing Frye combined for 13 of their own points, all before the halfway point of the first quarter.
After the centers scored the first 10 points of the game, Zeller put in another hoop for his sixth point of the quarter, but it was Vucevic who won the early battle. He finished the frame with 12 points and eights boards, putting on display why he is a candidate to make the All-Star team for the East.
|Celtics wrap up Summer League with a win and a seventh-place finish
|07.12.13 at 6:39 pm ET
Behind 14 points from Tony Mitchell and 12 apiece from Kelly Olynyk and Colton Iverson, the Celtics raced out to a 29-point lead and blew out the host Orlando Magic, 102-83, on Friday afternoon to capture the seventh-place game in the the Orlando Summer League series at Amway Center.
Olynyk, Boston's first-round pick in this year's draft, finished the week averaging 18.0 points and 7.8 rebounds per game, finishing as one of the most impressive young players in the tournament that features first and second-year talent and rookie free agents.
The Celtics, who finished their week in central Florida at 3-2, were blazing hot in the first half, scoring 61 points in the 20-minute first-half. The Celtics connected on 57.1 percent of its field goals and 58.3 percent of their 3-pointers in the first half.
Leading the way in the first half was Lawrence Hill, with 11 points on 4-of-7 shooting. He hit three of his five 3-point attempts in the half. Olynyk and Omar Reed also chipped in 10 points apiece in the first half while Boston left Orlando in the dust.
Boston pulled ahead by as many as 29 points early in the third after a 7-0 run to start the second half. That spurt was highlighted by a nice and-one hook shot by Fab Melo, who finished the game with 11 points and five rebounds in less than 18 minutes of action.
Orlando trimmed Boston's lead down to 81-69 with 7:47 remaining in the game. The Celtics, however, responded by scoring 14 of the game's next 18 points, building their lead back to 95-74 with three minutes left.
Seven Celtics scored in double-figures. Mitchell led the team with 14 points, while Olynyk and Iverson each poured in 12. Phil Pressey was the only Boston starter who failed to score at least 10 points finishing with seven but earned his second straight game of double-digit assists with 10.
|2013 NBA Mock Draft
|06.27.13 at 5:03 pm ET
After a fortnight of Doc Rivers talk, believe it or not, the NBA draft is Thursday night. When you wake up Friday, the entire Celtics roster could be traded, but for now we'll take a stab at how the 2013 edition of the league's most unintentionally comical night might unfold.
1. Cavaliers: Nerlens Noel (Kentucky). Despite a knee injury early in his freshman season that's the latest in what is a concerning injury history for a 19-year-old, the 7-foot center and Everett, Mass., product is the best player on the board in a draft without superstars. Still developing offensively, he's an elite shot blocker.
2. Magic: Ben McLemore (Kansas). Already facing questions about a few rumored poor workouts and his relationship with an agent prior to leaving college, the 20-year-old shooting guard can still shoot the lights out.
3. Wizards: Otto Porter (Georgetown). Considered "a sure thing" by many as a big body (6-9) on the wing, the 20-year-old's Washington D.C. ties make too much sense here.
4. Bobcats: Victor Oladipo (Indiana). A 6-foot-4 shooting guard who isn't considered a great shooter, the 21-year-old is lauded for his leadership, freak athletic ability and defensive skills.
5. Suns: Anthony Bennett (UNLV): The Suns need help just about everywhere, so why not begin with a 6-foot-8 20-year-old forward who can hurt you inside and out?
|High-wire act: Jeff Green, Celtics slam door on Magic
|02.01.13 at 9:42 pm ET
Jeff Green electrified the crowd with three sensational dunks as part of a 17-point night and Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett added double-doubles to lead the Celtics to a 97-84 win over the Magic Friday night at TD Garden. The Celtics played the game just hours after Jared Sullinger had season-ending back surgery, winning their third straight game to get back to .500 on the season at 23-23. The lowly Magic fell to 14-32.
Pierce fell just three assists shy of his second triple-double in three games, finishing with 14 points, 11 rebounds and seven assists while Garnett matched Pierce's 14 points while chipping in with 10 boards. Green was dominant in the second half and finished 8-of-13 from the field. Jason Terry and Leandro Barbosa each added 12 points off the rejuvenated Celtics bench.
Playing without Sullinger, it was Pierce who picked up the rebounding load in the first quarter, grabbing six boards. The Magic grabbed an early 13-7 lead before Pierce and the Celtics went on a 18-5 run to end the quarter to help the Celtics to a 25-18 lead after 12 minutes.
The Celtics continued to play good defense in the second quarter, holding the Magic to 35 percent shooting. Garnett led the way with 10 points in the quarter as the Celtics took a 46-35 lead to the locker room. The Magic were awful from long range, hitting just 1-of-13 from three-point range and making just 15-of-46 shots (32.6 percent). While the Celtics were dealing with the loss of Rajon Rondo and Jared Sullinger, the Magic were also battling a bad injury bug.
Glen Davis fractured his left foot Wednesday in New York and is likely done for the season. Starting point guard Jameer Nelson bruised his left forearm in the second quarter and did not return.
Despite their injuries, the Magic managed to cut the Boston lead to three, 57-54, on an E'Twaun Moore three-point play with 5:04 left in the third quarter. But the Celtics, thanks to a spectacular one-handed dunk from Green a minute later, closed the quarter on a 15-5 run to take a 72-59 lead into the fourth quarter.
The Celtics continued their barrage to open the fourth, as Green and Courtney Lee added one-handed slams that sent the Garden crowd into a frenzy. Boston opened the period on a 14-5 run to take an 86-64 lead and were not threatened the rest of the way.
Garnett's 728th career double-double moved him ahead of Shaquille O'Neal (727) on the NBA's all-time list. Since 1990, only Tim Duncan (751) has more.
The Celtics have Saturday off before taking on Blake Griffin and the Clippers Sunday at 1 p.m. at TD Garden. For more, including video from Danny Ainge and Doc Rivers, visit the Celtics team page at weei.com/celtics.

Porn Studios Sue Verizon for Defending Its Customers From Torrent Suits
Jason Mick
November 27, 2012 2:55 PM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
Media group claims Verizon is acting in bad faith by protecting its customers against mass lawsuits
brings word
that Verizon Communications Inc. (
) has been targeted in a lawsuit by three adult film companies: Malibu Media, Patrick Collins, and Third Degree Films.
The adult filmmakers want the court to hold the cable firm -- among the largest in the nation -- in contempt for objecting to dozens of mass-filed subpoenas from piracy attack dogs like the aforementioned trio's legal representatives.
Traditionally, piracy attack dogs have filed subpoenas to get ISPs to cough up the name and address of the customer associated with a particular IP address. The piracy watchdogs then turned around and sent extortion letters to the marks, telling them to pay a settlement or prepare to be sued.
Verizon is relatively cooperative with
copyright enforcement efforts. It's among the
pioneering members
the so-called "six-strikes" plan
, which could lead to customers who pirate having their connections throttled to disabled until they take remedial classes on anti-piracy "education".
However, that plan only deals with those who pirate content from the major movie studios and major music labels; porn piracy is not part of the deal (which is good news for
certain Congressional offices with a taste for porn torrents
). Thus the lawsuit, filed in plaintiff-friendly Texas federal court is likely in part a testament to this media market's frustration at being left out of Verizon,
et al.
's anti-piracy pact.
Porn studios are upset at Verizon for fighting their subpoenas of bittorrenters.
[Image Source: Julie Jacobson/AP]
When it comes to porn-piracy (not part of the aforementioned pact), Verizon suddenly goes from cooperating with the content holders in targeting customers with punishments to defending its customers. In these cases, it has argued that the infringer is often a teenager or neighbor and not the customer themself, and begun to file mass objections to the subpoenas. That has thrown a wrench in the plans of mass litigation contractors for these media players, as it would be prohibitively expensive to try to overturn each of the objections in court.
writes in one such objection, "[The subpoena] seeks information that is protected from disclosure by third parties' rights of privacy and protections guaranteed by the first amendment."
When it comes to the
mass lawsuits, Verizon's
also takes issue with the premise of mass lawsuits itself, pointing to
cases that copyright groups lost
, on the grounds that the defendants did not act in a concerted manner (and hence the mass suit was inappropriate).
The porn studios have launched a bold legal attack on the far bigger ISP Verizon.
[Image Source: National Geographic]
The internet service provider's (ISP) unexpected defense of its customers has the pornography studios mad enough to sue. Their lawyers lash out at Verizon in their filing, commenting:
Verizon objects to the subpoenas on various grounds, all of which lack merit. Accordingly, Plaintiffs respectfully request that the Court overrule each of Verizon's objections, compel immediate compliance with Plaintiffs' subpoenas and hold Verizon in contempt for failing to obey the subpoenas.
Verizon's current Objections can only be seen as being asserted in bad faith, and with the expectation to continue to profit from BitTorrent infringement at the expense of other, lower-tier ISPs and the consuming public at large. There is seemingly no incentive for ISPs such as Verizon to aggressively identify infringers on their network.
The trio cite an Aug. 2011
Northwestern University
and Telefónica Research
[PDF], which claims that larger internet service providers (ISPs) like Verizon profit off allowing BitTorrent traffic, while smaller ISPs are left footing the bill. The study did not disclose its source of funding.

The posturing between the NFL and the league's players' union, currently locked in a standoff over the CBA, has moved onto Twitter.
NFL spokesman Greg Aiello and NFLPA spokesman George Atallah traded pointed remarks about the league's finances today on the social-networking site.
The NFLPA has consistently asked the league to open up its books as the two sides argue over how to divide and share billions of dollars in revenue via the league's CBA. The owners opted out of the current agreement, which is set to expire in 2011.
Atallah reminded his followers of that theme with his tweet:
"The NFL nets more from the sale of broadcasting rights than the NBA, NHL, MLB, and NASCAR ... COMBINED"
Aiello offered the league's side of the issue in a series of tweets:
"Here's another fun fact: The NFL is the only sports league in which every team has a player payroll in excess of $100 million. ... $4.5 billion will go to NFL players this year. NFL has the most teams and most players of any league. ... Average player salary this year is $2 million plus $300,000 per player in benefits. NFL players are doing well in tough economy."
Atallah responded again when SportsBusiness Journal's Liz Mullen re-tweeted one of Aiello's comments:
"That's more financial information than they have provided at the meetings, by the way. And yes, we asked."

In the Indian political map, clear boundaries have been drawn for the Adivasis, and when they cross those, their identity is suspected, questioned and changed immediately. One is stunned to know that as soon as they leave their territories, they are counted in the general category and their constitutional and legal rights are denied officially. But at the same time, the same sets of rules are not applied to the people of the privileged sections of the India society. Of course, it keeps happening with the Adivasis precisely because the Indian state is utterly biased against them on the basis of their race. But still they have no choice to cross the political boundaries because their own land, territory and resources have been grabbed in the name of economic growth, development of the nation and for the greater common good unconstitutionally and illegally. Thus, some of them cross their political boundaries in search of better livelihood opportunities, but most of these are forced to do so. However, the end result is, they are being slaughtered, raped, tortured, imprisoned and discriminated against actors across the country.
Unfortunately, instead of resolving these problems, the Indian state seems to be more interested in deploying more troops in the Adivasis' territory, imposing curfews, shooting them, running relief camps and of course, buying their dead bodies too. Besides, the state also blames the Adivasis for their miseries. In the recent Assam violence unleashed on 23rd December by the extremist outfit the 'National Democratic Front of Bodoland' (Songbijit), 81 people, mostly Adivasis, were brutally killed, half of them women and children. This includes the killing of 3 innocent people by our brave soldiers, using their mighty power of 'shoot on sight order' on villagers were protesting against the violence. Besides, 15,000 people were made homeless and forced to live in the relief camps. Since then, the state called 'India' has been buying the dead bodies. 500,000 rupees has been paid for each dead body. Is this not shameful for the largest democracy on the Earth? How long will the state count the dead bodies and buy them?
Interestingly, whenever violence erupts in Assam, the Indian political class portrays it as the outcome of an 'ethnic clash'. The state, whose prime responsibility is to uphold the constitution, which guarantees a dignified life to each and everyone in the country, either becomes merely a mute spectator or party to it. The questions to be raised is, why is the Indian state not able to resolve the ethnic clash in Assam? Is it merely an ethnic violence? Has the state not sponsored political violence in the name of the ethnicity? Everyone knows that the prime cause of violence is 'self determination in the territory'. The Bodo Tribes claim that they are the owners of the territory, so the other people should desert it. Infiltration, demographic change, loss of land, shrinking of livelihood opportunities and intensified competition for political power have intensified a deadly potency to the issue of who has a right to Assam. Thus, Adivasis are called outsiders by Bodos, and the state has never been serious about resolving the issue for fear of losing the political mandate. Consequently the violence continues.
Of course, it's very difficult to understand the algebra of the 'Tribes' and 'scheduled' in India. For instance, the webpage of the 'Ministry of Tribal Affairs' states two very strange aspects regarding the identity of the 'Scheduled Tribes'. On the one hand, it says that when a person migrates from one state to another, he can claim to belong to a Scheduled Tribe only in relation to the state to which he originally belonged and not in respect of the state to which he has migrated, and on the other hand, it also states that a person who is a member of a Scheduled Tribe would continue to be a member of that Scheduled Tribe, even after his or her marriage with a person who does not belong to a Scheduled Tribe. How can there be two different parameters for the same Adivasis? How can persons born as Adivasis fall into a different category just after crossing their state's boundary, whereas marrying a non-Adivasi make no difference? Why do the upper caste people enjoy the same rights and privileges across the country but Adivasis don't? Is this not a state-sponsored crime against them?
The state sponsored crime against the Adivasis of Assam[1] began in 1950, when they were denied the status of Scheduled Tribe (ST) in the Indian Constitution.[2] However, the crime deepened in 1996 in the form of the 'ethnic cleansing', when 10,000 Adivasis were killed, thousands injured, and more than 200,000 were made homeless and compelled to live in relief camps for more than 15 years.[3] Again, on 24 November, 2007, about 5000 Adivasi men, women and children were attacked in Beltola of Guwahati, while they attending a peaceful procession in demand of the Schedule Tribe status.[4] They were attacked by the local people of Beltola, including shopkeepers. Consequently, 300 Adivasis were brutally wounded, hit by bamboos, iron rods and bricks. More than one person was killed, women were raped, and a teenage girl, Laxmi Oraon, was stripped, chased and kicked.[5] As usual, the 'police either remained mute spectators or joined the crowd in brutality.[6] Instead of protecting Adivasis, the government justified the brutalities and fixed blame for this incident on Adivasi organisations.
In 2010, the Assam Government forcefully evicted the Adivasis of Lungsung forest block located at Kokrajhar district of Assam, where they had settled down 'much earlier than 1965.[7] The forest department claimed that they had 'encroached' this highly biodiverse forest, even though there was no forest as such anymore. Thus, the forest department launched an eviction move and deployed the forest protection force to evict these Adivasis. In this process, the forest protection force burnt down 67 villages, reducing them to ashes. Consequently, 7,013 Adivasis including 3,869 adults and 3,144 minors belonging to 1,267 families lost their homes. A 2 year-old boy, Mangal Hembrom, died after struggling between life and death for more than 2 months after being badly burnt during the eviction process. 40 people who were leading the protests against the eviction were arrested. Later on seven of these, who were students, were released, while the rest, comprising 33 men, were sent to Kokrajhar jail'[8]. After protest and legal intervention, these too were released.
Historically, Adivasis were brought to the state of Assam in three different circumstances. Firstly, Adivasis in general and Santals in particulars were brought to Assam for their resettlement after the Santal Revolt of 1855.[9] They were settled down especially in western Assam, in the area that is now the north-west of Kokrajhar district. This settlement is recorded in the year 1881.[10] Secondly, in 1880, as the tea industry grew very fast, a large number of tea garden were set up In Assam, wor which there was soon a scarcity of labourers. The planters appointed, agents and sent them to various places to recruit people for labour.[11] Thus, Adivasis were 'coerced, kidnapped and incited to come to Assam, to live and work under appalling conditions.'[12] Thirdly, large scale land alienation for 'development projects' also pushed Adivasis into Assam in search of a better livelihood, as there were many job opportunities in the tea gardens. This is how Adivasis settled down in the state of Assam. Over a period of time, they cleared trees and bushes, and made cultivable land by shedding their sweat and blood.
Obviously, these Adivasis enjoyed the 'Scheduled Tribe (ST) status during British rule. However, after India's independence, they were de-scheduled in 1947, and from the moment when the Indian Constitution was enacted in 1950, they were considered as outsiders, since the then Chief Minister of Assam, Gopinath Bordoloi, opposed scheduling the Adivasis of Assam.[13] Whereas the same ethnic groups enjoy the status of Scheduled Tribe (ST), with its rights and privileges, in their parental states, i.e. Jharkhand, Chhatisgarh, Madhya Pradesh, Bengal and Orissa, they are denied this status in the state of Assam. The government merely recognizes them as either tea or ex-tea tribes. Consequently, the people of Assam treat them as sub-human, terming them derogatively as Coolie-Bengalis or labourers – a classic example of discrimination of Adivasis by state and society.
The Adivasis are discriminated against at every level, which is, of course, a crime. For example, when the government evicted Adivasis in 1974, after strong people's resistance, they promised to give them land entitlements.[14] At that time, Samar Brahma was the forest minister, and as per his promise, he started the process of land allocation in a phased manner. However, he allocated the land to the Bodos and some other communities. With his expulsion, the whole process of land allocation also stopped, betraying his promise to the Adivasis.[15] Similarly, according to the Forest Rights Act, 2006, Adivasis are entitled to claim their rights on the forest land which they possessed before 13th December, 2005. However, Adivasis in Assam are denied their rights under the FRA as well. In fact, the Adivasis who had been 'living in Lungsung Forest areas much earlier than 1965',[16] were not given rights and entitlement on the forest lands which they had been cultivating for decades.
Indeed, the history of Assam suggests that the 'state is itself a problem, not the solution.[17] There are more than 70,00,000 Adivasis[18] residing in the state of Assam, who are still not recognized as 'Scheduled Tribes' merely due to the political fear of losing Bodo voters. The most stunning factor in this episode is the complete silence of the outspoken India Prime Minister, Narendra Modi. He has not yet opened his mouth on the Assam massacre, though the nation wants to know his reaction. On 25th December 2014, when the Adivasis of Assam were burying their dead bodies and crying for justice, he was busy in celebrating 'good governance day'. Why is he silent? Is it only because the victims are marginalized people? Is it merely because most of the victims were Christians? How can the head of state be so narrow-minded, biased and selective? Or does he open his mouth only for the political gain?
The track record of Narendra Modi shows that after taking office as Prime Minister, he has spent most of his time either with the corporate sharks or wooing voters in political campaigns. It's now the right time for him to show his courage through action aimed at protecting the rights of Adivasis, as he has been preaching other Adivasis territories. The ruling elites must understand that the violence in Assam is not just ethnic violence, but has become political ethnic violence, well-scripted and sponsored by the state. It is the need of the hour to uproot the main roots of violence, instead of using every incident to serve political interest. Since the ethnic problem of Assam is political, therefore the solution must be political. The billion dollar question is who will bell the cat?

The main characters of the play Speech and Debate, three Oregon high school misfits, do a lot of their living among the modern technologies of chat rooms, Google, and personal video blogs. These technologies sometimes hyper-contextualize their lives, and other times liberate them from context almost entirely — which makes the border realm between adolescence and adulthood a particularly fraught and interesting place.
In this brave new medial world, the three teens of Speech and Debate are brought together by the cyber-ripples of a sex scandal involving a chat room and one of their teachers. The unlikely team — nerdy aspiring journalist Soloman (Christopher Reiling), out gay Howie (Philip Hobby), and awkward drama girl Diwata (Rachel Flehinger) — are out to disclose the truth in Stephen Karam's irreverent dark comedy. Sean Mewshaw directs a thrillingly multi-medial production in the first of what I hope will be many theater works presented by SPACE Gallery.
This savvy and technologically glamorous production shows us portraits of the teens via beautifully projected manifestations of their own media: We watch Diwata talk into a camera to broadcast her video blog while simultaneously, her huge image looks right into our eyes from the screen behind her. When Howie flirts in a chat room, the bated-breath start and stop of the text is large and addictively rhythmic behind him. The result is an exhilarating and precisely-pitched portrait not just of three teenagers with a mission, but of adolescence itself in this uber-cyber-century.
I strongly recommend making time for this one. The acting is smart and rambunctious and the technical magic is utterly engrossing — including, as you might expect from SPACE, a super sound system (blasting, notably, "Hip-Hop-O-Potamus" and George Michael's "Freedom").
Speech and Debate | at SPACE Gallery, in Portland | April 1 @ 10:30 pm and April 4 and 5 @ 8 pm | 207.838.3006

"With over 3,200 acres of natural beauty, the Park is a unique and fun destination where one can enjoy the outdoors while experiencing a huge variety of attractions, entertainment and recreation. The centerpiece of the Park is Stone Mountain, with the Confederate Memorial Carving depicting Robert E. Lee, Stonewall Jackson, and Jefferson Davis on horseback. The carving was begun by sculptor Gutzon Borglum, whose next project was to be Mt. Rushmore. The Memorial is the world's largest bas-relief carved on the world's largest exposed granite outcropping. Take a Swiss cable car to the top of The Rock to get a stunning view of the carving and ascend more than 825 feet above ground, or hike 1.3 miles to the top of the mountain. From the top, experience amazing views of the Atlanta skyline, the Appalachian Mountains, and more up to 60 miles away. In November, A Stone Mountain Christmas will be in full swing, with the NEW Coca-Cola Snow Mountain, nightly fireworks, train rides, a Jingle Bell bonfire, and more holiday treats."

"Nobody ever goes in here, which is completely mystifying to Mary and her friend Karin, who turned her on to this place. Perhaps because it keeps changing names every other week? In any case, it can't be the service because the service is good. It can't be the atmosphere because it's gorgeous and inviting. And it REALLY can't be the food, because this place seriously has the best Thai food in Atlanta. Hands down."
Boneheads4511 Olde Perimeter Way

Note from Mary: This place has been open since 1928, when it was established to serve the local high school varsity football crowd, then quickly expanded to serve Ga Tech Yellow Jacket fans.

Before I started writing I worked as a model.
Here are some of the articles Ive written about food.
Tree to Table - Cooking with Australian Olive Oil
Clearly, I love extra virgin olive oil; its ancient origins, manifold produce and sublime flavours.
There are over nine million olive trees growing in Australia, but they represent only 0.7 percent of the world's olive industry. As the concept of traceability from farm to kitchen grows ever more important, the argument for local olive oil gathers serious weight.
Beyond the olive grove I invite you into our nineteenth-century homestead and discuss everything there is to know about Australian olive oil; descriptors, standards, chemistry, rancidity and storage; how olive oil should taste, how to choose the best olive oil, and its many uses.
Beautifully photographed by Simon Griffiths, Tree to Table also features an amazing array of recipes for bread, dips, infusions, vinaigrettes, soups, salads, seafood, risotto, pasta, meat and sweets. And many of Australias top chefs, including Tony Bilson, Kylie Kwong, Stephanie Alexander, Maggie Beer, and Damien Pignolet, share their ideas too.
Tree to Table is a celebration of Australian olive oil in which the politics of production and the chemistry of food converge with a love of cooking and the aesthetics of eating.
Ten Thousand Acres
Ten Thousand Acres A Love Story goes beyond the angers and arguments of debates on ecology and climate change to the deepest feelings we have for our farm and the wild landscape that embraces it.
It goes beyond the crops and the cattle, high above the olive groves and the old homestead into the old stories hidden in its hundred hills and valleys.
We do not really own our farm, let alone the ancient landscape that rises above it.
Ten Thousand Acres IS a love story of how the place has come to own us. It is my book of endless discovery of the extraordinary riches that surround us, in the dark of night and the harshest days of drought.
It is about the wild aviary of birds, the boundless zoo of native animals, the abundance of beauty, of trees, plants, grasses and botanic secrets.
I hope to make a contribution to the literature of place, the new awareness that Australians must have for all the Australias within our immense continent.
In words and pictures, my book sets out to reveal the love we must have for the totality of the natural world the respect for the land that is essential if we (and I mean all of us, all creatures great and small) are to have a hope of survival.
The River
The second book, The River, began as the story of the Pages, the small stream that flows through Elmswood and can, in a sudden change of mood, rip the trees from its banks and smash the bridges that cross it.
That book, like a river, had a sudden change of course when I learned that a new coal mine was to be gouged upstream threatening the Pages survival. Then what I had to write became angry the story of a political and environmental battle.
For a photo of the coal bulk sample next to the Pages River click Here
The Olive Grove
My first book, The Olive Grove, was a sea change story of my escape from the worlds of modelling, journalism and the TV studio into a new marriage and a new life.
Here I was learning of the drama of farming of floods and droughts and the mustering of cattle and of my struggle to plant and protect our first olive trees.

To remove prescription labels/store stickers use your hair dryer. It will loosen the glue and the label will peel right off.
Remove hairspray residue
I had a longterm house guest, who was an abundant user of hairspray. When she moved out recently, I noticed that the bathroom door, which she always stood in front of to do her hair, is coated with the sticky residue from her hairspray. The door is a stained polyresin door, and I'm unsure as to how to get the residue off without ruining the finish. Can you suggest any solvents? Thank you. — Debbie K., email
Test a small area and use rubbing alcohol. That would work the fastest. Simply apply it with a sponge and rinse it off with a sponge dampened with water. If you're unable to use that, try a spray bottle with 1/3 fabric softener or shampoo to 2/3 water. Shake it to mix, then spray and wipe.
In your recent column concerning detergent buildup in towels, your solution was to use borax in the wash cycle and vinegar in the rinse. My question is, how much vinegar do I use and should I keep rinsing until there is no more soap in the rinse cycle? — Dewey D., email
Wash your towels alone (without any other articles of clothing), in hot water at the highest water level, and use baking soda, washing soda, borax or Charlie's Soap (www.charliesoap.com) instead of your usual laundry detergent. Use 1/4 cup (up to a cup if you're able to) vinegar in your rinse cycle — using the fabric softener reservoir — and a double rinse cycle. Then dry. If you find that the towels still have buildup and are still quite scratchy, continue to launder with the above products. It might take a couple of washes to remove all the residue. You might need to check the hardness of your water, too.
I give our old prescription bottles to our veterinarian. I have trouble getting the labels off of some of the bottles. Can you help me? — Barb R., email
If soaking them in hot, soapy water doesn't work, use vegetable or baby oil, rubbing alcohol, Goo Gone or WD-40. Any of them will work to remove the adhesive from plastic.
I need storage boxes for holiday decorations, etc. So far I've resisted the temptation to buy the plastic ones at the store because there might be something large enough around the house that I can reuse. Any ideas? — Anne H., email
For holiday storage, I really like giant popcorn tins, plastic coffee canisters, large plastic kitty litter buckets and shoe boxes. The plastic bags with zippers that comforters come in work well for garland, wreaths and stockings, too. I did invest in some plastic totes. You can find the Christmas-themed totes and even plastic laundry baskets on sale after Christmas.

A visit to Buenos Aires' historic center is fundamental. "This is where the city was born."—Viviana Rivelli, guided tour coordinator, City of Buenos Aires. Start at the Congress building (1) on Entre Ríos (Entre Ríos and Rivadavia). Stroll in the plaza along Rivadavia, taking in the cafés, "kioskos," and other typical businesses catering to harried downtown workers. As Rivadavia curves into Avenida de Mayo, you'll pass a small plaza with a small dog park, one of many in the city where dog walkers—known for being able to walk up to 15 dogs at a time—stop to let their clients romp.
On Avenida de Mayo, one of the first historical buildings you'll pass is the (2) Inmobiliaria Building (Avenida De Mayo Between Luis Saénz Peña and San José), with two red domes and Italian neoclassic features. On the same block, stop at the (3) Palacio Barolo (1370 Avenida De Mayo; www.pbarolo.com.ar), a neo-Gothic masterpiece built by Italian architect Mario Palanti. Palanti designed the dramatic structure of domes, columns, vaults, marble, bronze, and iron in an intricate tribute to the Divine Comedy by Dante Alighieri. The palace, which now houses offices of lawyers, notaries, and insurance vendors, is divided into three parts: hell, purgatory, and heaven. Private or group tours of the building are available, if scheduled ahead of time
Back on Avenida de Mayo, you will see the historic (4) Old Majestic Hotel (1317 Avenida De Mayo) and the (5) Chile Hotel (1297 Avenida De Mayo). At (6) Los 36 Billares Bar (1265 Avenida De Mayo) founded in 1894, retirees play pool and dominos in backrooms and the basement.
Jorge Luis Borges, Spanish poet Federico García Lorca, and other famous artists used to frequent the (7) Castelar Hotel on the next block at 1150 Avenida de Mayo, and the oldest café in Buenos Aires.
From there, carefully and briskly cross the immense (8) Avenida 9 de Julio, a boulevard with 16 lanes of traffic (and more in some places), making it one of the widest boulevards in the world. Check out (9) Café Tortoni at number 825. Have a strong Argentine coffee or a helping of churros con chocolate while you peruse the photos and art at Tortoni (www.cafetortoni.com.ar).
Approaching the Plaza de Mayo, you'll see the (10) House of Culture (575 Avenida de Mayo), the former "La Prensa" Newspaper building, and now a Buenos Aires City Government center. At the intersection of Rivadavia and San Martín, sits the (11) Metropolitan Cathedral and nearby, the (12) Cabildo building at Bolívar and Avenida de Mayo. Inaugurated in 1740, this is where Buenos Aires leaders met during colonial times. It now houses the Revolucion de Mayo Museum, the National Commission of Monuments, and a small handicraft fair.
A quick detour from the plaza, down Defensa street, you can visit the (13) Church of San Francisco, the City Museum, and the (14) "Farmacia de la Estrella," a still-operating pharmacy founded n 1834. All are located on the corner of Defensa and Alsina streets.
Return to the Plaza de Mayo to end your tour in front of the (15) Casa Rosada (The Pink House), the presidential palace that occupies an entire block at the eastern end of the plaza. Many an Argentine president has appealed to the masses from the balcony facing the plaza. Every Thursday afternoon, the families of Argentines who "disappeared" during Argentina's dictatorship still march in their loved-ones' honor.

Question about the intake...

Here's the deal
Since at low end RPM, the throttle is almost completely closed under 2500 RPM, there's very little need for air intake. Once speed builds above 25mph the doors will probably open letting more air in thus letting more air into the throttle. The RPM from 0-2500 relies purely on a small amount of air and more gas mixture for combustion which the ECU takes care of automatically. This is why you need your ECU tuned with a cold air intake if you want to take advantage of it at low end speed, otherwise all the benefit is mostly at the high end RPM.
Bottom line, you will get no benefit from opening the little doors. Get a cold air intake instead with a tuned ECU.
