Do not adjust your HD. That is your humble narrator who will be on the new episode of Celtics Now with Michael Holley on Comcast SportsNet, which airs tomorrow night at 6 p.m. on CSN.
I appeared on a panel with Dana Barros and Pete McKenzie from 100.7 to discuss Kevin Garnett's return, whether Paul Pierce is playing too many minutes and who scares us among the teams at the bottom of the Eastern Conference.
More show times:
6/11:30 p.m
2:30/6/7:30 p.m.
6 p.m.
It gets better every time. Promise.

Quote: So sorry, but karate is JAPANESE not AMERICAN, so if anyone thinks that karate is a sport because he say so, or his sensei say so, WRONG, you are not doing the real karate.
Quote:Hedgehogey,Normally I would agree with you, however one has to then decide what is sport karate. I am not talking about point tournaments only here. Harder competitions would be the Kyokushin tournaments...-B
Quote:The other problem is also an old one--people wish to "win" so the folks that want to win the most spend most of the time training and working tournament techniques.
Quote:You know, as an outsider to karate, I can safely say that the reason people think of karate as innefective is generally due to the LACK of sparring and hard contact sport.
Quote:i dont enter in tournaments and my sensei teachs me more katas and self-defense and not so much kumite...my friends of other styles, like shotokan, they enter in a lot of tournaments but they cant defend theirselves in a rlly street fighting and their punches are weak...if they like that way, what can i do...they like to use high and slow kicks while i prefer kicks on the knees and legs...
Quote:IRBoy says that shotokan karateka's punches are weak, aren't here any shotokan people to address that?Although my experiance is small enough to disqualify me from speaking on this matter, I will still do so, explicitely from that small experiance:During my years of training in MA, I've had the pleasure of training together with two shotokan stylists (one shodan and one 1.kyu).Although the focus of their training was different from that of my own (and different from each other's too, come to think of it), both possessed (and for all I know, still possess) strong and fast punches!Just my two cents...
Quote:I believe "political commercialism" degrades karate, and modern sport karate is a byproduct of the "PC".
Quote:Quote:I believe "political commercialism" degrades karate, and modern sport karate is a byproduct of the "PC".Hey Sanchin,I am not familiar with the term you used here. I don't want to assume that I know what you mean or intended to mean. Could you take a moment to explain?Thanks
Quote:The Street training Practictioner is fast but alittel slower, more deliberate, more powerful

Date of Stay: September, 2016
Small RV park in Elgin with a lot of full timers. Restrooms are individual with a shower, toilet and sink which is very nice. They were in dire need of cleaning as the floors were very dirty. The manager is very nice and helpful, he came out to greet us as we arrived and made sure we had the correct site. We had problems with our 50 amp service but he let us use the electrical site next to us for the 3 days we were there so we didn't have to move. Park is within walking distance of town. No cable hookups but we had excellent antenna service.
Date of Stay: September, 2016
Small RV park near Wallowa Lake. It is a beautiful setting with lots of fir trees for shade and is located near the river. The staff are very helpful and friendly. The one downfall is that you have to pay for a shower at $.25 for 2.5 minutes. Not a big cost but a little inconvenient since you could only put three quarters in at a time! Wifi wasn't the best and the cell service is minimal but that is due to the area, not the RV Park. Great location as you can walk to the lake, Wallowa Lodge, the Tram and hiking trails. The town of Joseph is only about 7 miles away and if you are brave you can bike into town!
Date of Stay: August, 2016
RV Park is located across from the Marina. It is a no frills park and certainly adequate for a night or two. It is all gravel with no trees but some very nice planters that do add a nice touch. It is also within walking distance of town.
Date of Stay: August, 2016
The RV Park is small and situated on the bay with beautiful views. There are only a few sites that are waterfront but well worth it if you can get one. You are within walking distance of town and the marina. The showers and bathrooms are individual and one of nicest we've ever used. The staff go out of their way to accommodate any need you may have and are extremely friendly and helpful.
Date of Stay: February, 2011
This is a beautiful park with a lot of running and biking trails nearby. We spent a weekend at the park and noticed most of the other campers were families with trailers but did encounter other motorhome travelers. The restrooms were adequate but could use a little more cleaning and updating. They are not heated and it was a little chilly taking a shower in the morning and the water was not very hot, but adequate. The location was great because you felt like you were in a rural area but in reality only a couple of miles to anything you needed. The bike trail to the beach was wonderful and well maintained.
Date of Stay: February, 2011
No one was at the office for check in and it was self serve to find your own space. They advertised cable but none was available at any of the sites we looked at. Electric didn't work at the site we pulled into and we had to use the one next to it. The bathrooms were the worst I have ever seen. They were filthy and smelled horrible. I was glad I had flip flops to wear in the shower!
Date of Stay: February, 2011
A huge traffic backup on the freeway at 4:00 in the afternoon forced an overnight stay here in Boron. Campground was adequate and the manager was very friendly; however, there were no working restrooms or showers during our overnight stay. We had freezing weather overnight and the hose connections and our hose froze so we didn't have water in the morning. We had to thaw our hose out in the motorhome!
Date of Stay: January, 2011
This park was fine for an overnight stay. There were a lot of run down trailers that appeared to be permanent residents of the park. We did have to move after getting everything hooked up and finding out that the electric didn't work at the assigned site. Lesson learned: check the electric before hooking up everything else!

"Where's Sophia?" asked Grace, after her mediocre spill earlier "I'll go get her." said Thalia, turning swiftly on her heel and marching back up to the throne room. Aria, still a fair few feet away from Grace looked at me and mouthed the words "Go After Her You Idiot!" with her famous roll of the eyes.
I tried to protest that Thalia would want to fry me for sneaking up on her and Sophia, but Aria grabbed me by my ear and literally tossed me into the street. "Just go, and be quiet. Thalia's always got a plan hidden within another, it's about time you figure out what she's up too." Said Aria, in a hushed voice. "What? You don't know?" Aria crossed her arms "I didn't say that. But with Thalia, you learn not to ask and figure things out for yourself. I learned that the hard way. Now hurry. Thalia's just entered the Throne Room again. Remember to stay hidden and only listen." Aria vanished in a flash of silver.
I ran back up to the Throne Room and slipped inside. Skirting around the end and crouched quietly by Artemis' Throne and watched the scene unfold in front of me. Thalia was standing in front of Sophia, who was still huddled up against the hearth, looking down on her with a mixture of pride and disgust.
"-Sophia, you can't. It's not your choice." Thalia was saying, her hands on her hips. Sophia looked up; her eyes were red and puffy from crying. "How would you know?" she snapped "You may be the all powerful leader of the Elite 4 and immortal, but that doesn't make you a diviner" Thalia sighed and knelt "I know because I've been in the same position before. Aria has always wanted to lead; she doesn't take well to being bossed around. In fact I don't think she's ever listened to anyone in her life. Not even me. The same goes with Astrid." A shiver went down my spine. Me? she means me?
"But Astrid's not Aria. She's screwing up everything. I'm supposed to lead!" cried Sophia. "No you're not!" growled Thalia, causing thunder to rumble slightly in the distance. Sophia looked startled, as if Thalia's anger surprised her. Thalia shook her head, getting her composer back. "You've got a bigger part to play Sophia. Yes Astrid may screw things up, but she screws them up in such a way that they end up helping more than you realize. There is more going on in the background than you may think, more forces at work. I sensed them as soon as I was freed from those dumb orbs and I feel it now, stronger than ever." said Thalia, taking a deep breath.
"But what am I supposed to do!?!?" Sophia exclaimed sadly. Thalia grasped her hand "You know I can't tell you Sophia. You have to figure it out by yourself." "But I don't even know where to start!" Thalia thought about this. "Talk to Nereus, the old man of the sea. He has the gift of knowledge and will help you find your way and if you're lucky, he'll give you the answer to defeating Shadoe and Kyos." Sophia's eyes brightened a little. "But where is he? How would we find him?" she asked.
Thalia smiled mischievously "Oh, he's not that hard to find. Just follow the smell. Your friend Flare will be able to help. Being related to Phoebe and Poseidon after all."

When Kevin moved to Montreal from Tehran in August 2014 after five years of immigration paperwork, he thought his life was about to get easier.
He'd worked for 10 years as an electrical engineer in Iran and graduated from the country's top technical university. He'd been accepted to Quebec because he is a skilled worker.
"I thought that when I was accepted as a skilled immigrant, I'd be able to work," he said.
He was wrong. Shortly after arriving, he learned that he couldn't work in Quebec as an engineer until he became a member of the Ordre des ingénieurs du Québec. But to become a part of the OIQ, he needs to pass two exams, and each exam is only offered a few times per year.
Without an OIQ membership, experience in Canada or connections, he can't find work. He's applied for over 200 jobs, but hasn't been hired yet.
Money is incredibly tight. Kevin lives in Côte-des-Neiges with his daughter and his wife, both of whom immigrated with him. His wife is also a student, taking insurance classes at Vanier College. They're living off her bursaries, and piling up debt. "When we arrived here, we weren't like other immigrants who have family here. We were completely alone," he said.
Kevin and his family are among the thousands who will receive a $125 cheque from the Gazette Christmas Fund this year. The money helps to make the holiday season more cheerful for individuals and families in need.
He's going to use part of the money to buy a small gift for his daughter, who turns 3 on Jan. 1, and use the rest for essentials.
In the meantime he isn't giving up. He's passed his first OIQ exam, and will write the second one in the spring. He's taken French classes, and courses in industrial automation. He's hoping things will get better for his family.

Hey, 2016: Pace yourself, huh? It's raining in Los Angeles, freezing in Florida, tornado-ing in Texas. And then there's the floods: houses in Illinois and Missouri up to their roofs in muddy Missouri River water. El Niño is finally here.
Or is it? Or wasn't it already? No and yes, and yes and no. Scientists have had a pretty good idea since September that El Niño was going to be a monster (they even nicknamed it "Godzilla"). They knew what that meant in general—wet Southwest, warm Northeast. But picking out El Niño's effect on any particular event is tricky.
El Niño is not weather. Weather is short-term stuff: hurricanes, rainstorms, droughts. El Niño is none of those things, but it influences them all. By the numbers, the phenomena is pretty boring: warmer than average surface ocean temperatures in the normally cool Eastern equatorial Pacific Ocean. That warm water makes the normally dry air humid.
Result: huge rainstorms and rapidly rising air that ripples around the world. "It's like dropping a rock in a pond," says Martin Hoerling, research meteorologist for NOAA's Earth Systems Research Laboratory in Boulder. As those ripples spread towards the poles and eastward (because of Earth's rotation), they cause the jet stream to undulate. So low pressure systems form in weird places.
"So long as that rainfall stays constant, those ripples stay engaged, and you get a permanent low pressure pattern to the jet stream to the north," says Hoerling. In that sense, El Niño is more like climate change, in that it happens more slowly, subtly, and broadly. It's a background state that influences weather across the globe.
But: #notallweather.
Take the current Missouri River floods. "This is a highly unusual event for this time of year," says Hoerling. "It's the highest the waters have been since 1993, and that was in the summer." The region's winter is typically drier (snowing instead of raining). And if the rains do come, they fall on the entire upper Mississippi and Missouri River basin. By contrast, this storm is falling over a relatively small area.
Portentous signs, especially under the specter of El Niño. But meteorology isn't the science of spooky coincidences. There've been about 20 El Niños in the past 100 years, but none had much of a correlation with rainfall in general. "At first blush that would mean El Niño does not have a significant effect," says Hoerling. "This is part of natural variability, and happens for no other reason except that weather is sometimes unpredictable."
Speaking of unpredictable: Rain! In Los Angeles? Yes, in fact rain has been falling across the Golden State since October. But those earlier storms weren't El Niño, either. Strange as it might sound after four years of drought, all the rain and snow that's fallen so far is normal. That is to say, the storms were coming from a northeasterly direction—not where you'd expect El Niño to swoop in. "Now the storm track is starting to change, come from the west to east, showing that link to the tropics," says Hoerling.
That's all backed by models. (Did you really think you'd get through a weather story without hearing about models?) Every day, research meteorologists run the current global calculations out for 30 days into the future to see the odds of anything bad happening. At the same time, they run the exact same models except without the El Niño surface temperature variation. "By comparing these, we expect to progressively see the diversion from best estimate El Niño to that without El Niño," says Hoerling.
And El Niño's influence on individual weather events isn't binary. Working with perfect data, scientists might find that El Niño is responsible for only a fraction of a particular storm. Of course, data is rarely ever perfect. Which is why NOAA is sending a Gulfstream and a Global Hawk drone (leased from NASA) to fly around the Central Pacific Ocean to study weather patterns. Turns out, you actually do need a weatherman—lots of them, in fact, and weatherwomen, too—to know which way the wind blows.Go Back to Top. Skip To: Start of Article.

text: Scots and Scottish Gaelic? Will Scotland care? Scots or Scottish Gaelic? Scotland had and has traditionally been home to two languages: The Celtic language of the Highlands and Islands- Scottish Gaelic. The Germanic language of the Lowlands, and east of Scotland- Scots (Lallans). Today we are going to talk about Scots. Scots Scots, which has no official status, is still spoken by about 20% of the Scottish population, mainly in the Lowlands. It is also known in Ulster where it is known as Ulster Scots. It has various names including: Lowland Scots, Lallans, Scots Leid, Braid Scots, Doric, Teri, Buchan Claik. Listening to Scots http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cENbkH S3mnY Scots There is no real standard for Scots, so many local variations exist. Because of its unofficial status, it is usually thought of as a dialect (series of dialects). Mainly Aberdeen and the Borders. Some, however, prefer to think of Scots as a language in its own right. Attitudes towards Scots The 2010 Scottish Government study of public attitudes towards the Scots language found that 64% of Scottish people 'don't really think of Scots as a language'. Origins of Scots Scots is an abbreviation for Scottis (ie Scottish). This term has only been used since the 15th century. Before that the word used was Inglis (Scottis before the 15th century meant Scottish Gaelic!). Erse was also used to mean Scottish Gaelic. Origins of Scots Scots developed from Northumbrian Old English, a speech form that became established in southern Scotland after the 7th century. (SE Scotland). Everywhere else used Scottish Gaelic, or Brythonic (Strathclyde). By the 15th century this situation was completely reversed. Scots became the predominant language in the south of Scotland. Scots Early towns in Scotland favoured the spread of Scots. French which had been the language of the courts declined. Between 1610-1690s some 200,000 Scots –speakers settled in Ulster (NE Ireland). A more standardized form of English was also used in Scotland after 1707 (Act of Union). Scots today In Scotland today those who speak Scots are able to use it in a range of speech forms that includes 'broad Scots' and standardized English. This is known as a diglossic situation. It can also be called 'code-switching'. The 'colour' of one's language can cross many hybrids. Scots Today Sometimes it is difficult to distinguish between English-influenced Scots and Scots-influenced English. This of course leads to disputes about whether Scots can be classed as a 'language' in its own right. Scots Today The government of the United Kingdom now accepts Scots as a regional language and has recognized it as such under the European Charter for Regional or Minority Languages. The Scottish Executive (government) has made a similar declaration: Scots Today The Scottish Executive recognizes and respects Scots (in all its forms) as a distinct language and does not consider the use of Scots to be an indication of poor competence in English. More later on the Scottish Government's stance on Scots. The 'Northern British' and their languages Following the 1707 Act of Union, many Lowlander Scots considered themselves to be 'Northern Britons' rather than Scots. This of course indicates that the Act of Union was instrumental in constructing a new identity for the peoples of the Britain (especially those in the Celtic regions!). The 'Northern British' and their languages Many of those who lived in Edinburgh and Glasgow did their best to rid themselves of Scots (the language). Not only in the spoken language but also in their written English. Famous Scottish thinkers of the time like David Hume and Adam Smith went to great lengths to eradicate their Scottish 'accents'. The 'Northern British' and their languages This was the beginning of the class distinction between who mainly spoke Scots and those who sought to speak a standardized form of English. This was largely going to be true until the beginning of the 20th century. Scots writing Yet, Scots had been a medium for writing. Much of the best of this Scots writing derives from the 15th century (Royal Court in Edinburgh). William Dunbar, Robert Henryson, Gavin Douglas, David Lyndsay. William Dunbar c1465-c1530 He hes done petuously devour, The noble Chaucer, of makaris flour, The Monk of Bery, and Gower, all thre; Timor mortis conturbat me. The gude Syr Hew of Eglintoun, And eik Heryot, and Wyntoun, He hes tane out of this cuntre; Timor mortis conturbat me Scots writing In the eighteenth and nineteenth centuies Scots as a literary language saw a revival. The name which especially comes to mind is that of Robert Burns (Burns Night etc). His writing was a hybrid of Scots and English very often, no doubt partially reflecting the norms of his day (17591796) Writing in Scots in the early 20th century The novelist Sir Walter Scott also brought conversations in Scots into his work. 19th c. In the 1920s there was a renaissance in the use of Scots, focussed especially on the poet Hugh MacDiarmid. His most famous poem was 'A Drunk Man Looks at a Thistle' (1926). This showed that Scots could be used for high literature. Hugh MacDiarmid 1892-1978 A Drunk Man Looks at a Thistle- first lines I amna fou' sae muckle as tired - deid dune. It's gey and hard wark coupin' gless for gless Wi' Cruivie and Gilsanquhar and the like, And I'm no' juist as bauld as aince I wes. Archaic and obscure words, to create an integrated Scots literary language. Scots http://www.scotslanguage.com/ http://www.mithertongue.co.uk/shop.php?v iew=page&page=67 Scots in the Twentieth century Writing Scots waned by the 20th century (although it was still widely spoken). In the 1930s children were physically punished for speaking Scots The Scottish Education Department in the 1940s stated that Scots was not the language of educated people. The language itself went through important changes, especially in urban centres. Using Scots- Wir Ain Leid Well into the 1950s, children were still punished for speaking their 'mithertongue'. During all of the 20th century there were small numbers of writers who employed Scots. Translations, (1983 New Testament by William Laughton Lorimer). Novels/Films (Transpotting by Irvine Welsh) Cyberpunk- But'n'Ben A-Go-Go (Matthew Fitt) Scots in the Twentieth century Successive generations have adopted more and more features from Standardized English. In the opinion of some speakers, Scots was a form of 'slang'. More recently (post 2000), some changes have taken place in the attitudes of people to Scots. (pluralism in society). Spoken Scots in the Media http://scottishaffairs.org/backiss/pdfs/sa21/ sa21_Cormack.pdf Comedy Programmes (TV) Stand-up Comics (The Big Yin= Billy Connolly) Drama programmes (TV) Interviews with members of the public Billy Connolly Connolly sometimes uses Scots freely in his routines. He has also written plays in Scots, eg: An' Me Wi' A Bad Leg Tae. Attitudes to Scots What on earth are we Scots going to do about our 'mither tongue'? On the one hand, most of us would like to see the Scots tongue survive, and strongly resent the idea that it's a 'low' form of speech fit only for comedians and servants. Yet on the other, we seem unable to stop ourselves from laughing like idiots every time we hear a few words of Scots used in a public place, so strongly have we come to associate it with the uncouth, the ill-educated, the infantile, and the unmentionable Attitudes to Scots It would not be difficult to find a way of speaking Scots which would become the central form of the language, and in fact this process has been happening with Gaelic as its media use has expanded.

Neonicotinoid insecticides worth £630million to UK crop farmers
NewsTuesday 15 January 2013
Yesterday the NFU released a report that stated that neonicotinoid insecticides are worth around £630m to UK crops.
The news that these neonicotinoids are able to make a significant contribution to crop production in the UK will be welcomed by farmers as another piece of the debate on bee and pollinator health.
The report, called the Humboldt Forum for Food and Agriculture report, stated that if UK farmers no longer had access to neonicotinoid seed treatment technology then it would result in a loss of around £630million to the economy every year.
It was also shown, by the report, that in unfavourable years, such as 2012, the loss of neonicotinoids could result in vast declines in winter wheat yield of up to 20%. A loss of this kind would make this crop uneconomic for UK farmers to grow.
NFU lead on bee health Dr Chris Hartfield said: "The results of this work are important, particularly in light of work being done currently by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) reviewing neonicotinoid seed treatments.
"While EFSA's work has identified gaps in the current regulatory process assessing how pesticides affect bees, we still do not know how relevant these gaps are and whether plugging them would actually improve the health of bees or other pollinators.
"Any decision to change the way pesticides are used to control crop pests will have an impact on both the protection of insect pollinators and the protection of crops.
"It is essential that we fully understand all these impacts before taking any action.
"Otherwise there is a significant risk we could make changes that do nothing to improve bee health, or even worsen the bee health situation, while also compromising the effectiveness of what this socio-economic report clearly shows is very important way of protecting our crops from pests."

London, Dec.12 (ANI): British Government authorities have blocked the publication of an official, 800-page dossier detailing the Lockerbie bomber's grounds for appealing against his conviction.
The decision to keep the report secret has fuelled claims by families of victims of the terrorist attack that the release of Abdelbasset Ali al-Megrahi was rushed through to prevent his appeal, which was due to be heard in public, going ahead, The Telegraph reports.
The blocking of the report follows revelations last week contained in leaked US diplomatic cables that Britain believed lucrative oil and finance deals with Libya would be scrapped if Megrahi died in jail.
The Sunday Telegraph also revealed that the Government has turned down a call by relatives' victims for a public inquiry.
In a letter, obtained by the paper, British Foreign Secretary William Hague declared it would "not be in the public interest" to order such an inquiry.
Megrahi dramatically dropped his appeal last summer and was then told he would be released from prison on compassionate grounds.
Scottish authorities claimed he had only three months to live, although Megrahi has now survived for almost a year and a half since that diagnosis.
The report into his conviction conducted by the Scottish Criminal Cases Review Commission (SCCRC), which looks into alleged miscarriages of justice, will remain locked away after Megrahi, the police, and other authorities could not agree on its publication.
All parties involved have to give 'unqualified consent' for it to be made public. It is not clear which parties - including the police, the Foreign Office and Megrahi himself - vetoed its publication.
The SCCRC investigation is the most comprehensive into the worst terrorist atrocity ever committed in mainland Britain in which 270 people were murdered when Pan Am flight 103 blew up over the town of Lockerbie in Scotland on Dec 21, 1988.
The main report runs to more than 800 pages with a further 13 volumes of appendices.
The SCCRC recommended in June 2007 that Megrahi should be granted a second appeal hearing following a four-year investigation into the case against him.
It identified six grounds "where a miscarriage of justice may have occurred" and referred the case to the court of appeal in Scotland. It includes evidence not made available to Megrahi's defence and which is still to be made public. (ANI)
