"I wouldn't waste any tears over Asfordby if I were you. To tell the truth, everyone knew all along it was a bit of dog; it was only ever built as a sop to the Union of Democratic Mineworkers, who demanded it as part of their price for supporting the Government during the miners' strike. There were actually better sites available, but there you go. As you are no doubt learning, government is all about compromises.
"Actually it's turned out to be a rather higher price than any of us anticipated. Not that you should believe old Budgie's claim that because of adverse geological conditions, it has become impossible to make it safe. Volcanic sills - I ask you! More investment on top of the pounds 300m already spent would undoubtedly have done the trick.
"The real problem here has little to do with safety. As usual it is much more about commerce and the fact that RJB's contracts with the electricity generators come to an end at the beginning of next April. So far Mr Budge has only been able to sign up one contract to support his mines thereafter, and that's only a short-term one. What Mr Budge is saying here is, I've closed Asfordby and I'll close more if you don't force the generators to pay me a decent price for my coal. They don't have to, you see. They are progressively switching to gas and anyway they can buy imported coal much cheaper. With the strength of the pound, these alternative sources of fuel get cheaper by the day. Asfordby is already a lost cause; it's never going to be economic. But the rest is still up for grabs.
"So there you go. If you don't step in and force the generators to pay up, what little is left of the coal industry might all but disappear. There is a perfectly respectable line of argument to say that this would be no bad thing. Your predecessor, Tim Eggar, certainly thought so. Coal is nasty, environmentally unfriendly stuff and nobody could possibly enjoy working in a mine. As for RJB, well the Government certainly doesn't owe Mr Budge a living. He's already made back most of what he paid for British Coal. In any case, the generators will have to buy some coal from him, if not on quite the same lucrative terms as before. They cannot buy all their needs on the spot market.
"If you were wise, then, you wouldn't intervene."

Comedy fantasy - the band members buy an old electric organ for the group... but it's cursed, and causes mayhem for the group and those around it.Mature
Paul slipped between the people in Mike's room, and found a spot of free carpet beside a striking, overly tall, young man clutching a bottle of evil looking wine. Wig, as he was called, was the drummer in the band. He appeared physically to be constructed from a variety of pipe-cleaning wires, loosely dressed in extra-long black jeans, and a brightly patterned shirt which hung on him as uncomfortably as a politician's promise. Paul was convinced that it was a girl's blouse, but Wig liked gaudy patterns, and this gold and red number was no exception. Shiny gold tigers chased spiral red patterns across where Wig's chest would be if he could be surgically shortened by a few feet. An old black waistcoat secured the blouse to his shoulders, allowing the bellowing sleeves to pour down his skinny arms before giving up six inches from his wrists.
Wig was striking looking, not just because of his lanky height, but because of his nose, which held forth from his face like the prow of an ancient man'o'war. Fully half of his features were composed of nose, proudly cutting through the air as he walked, yet it gave him the comic good-looks that matched his kind, funny outlook on life. Wig was Paul's best friend, a superlative drummer, universally held in top regard by everyone who knew him, a caring and sensitive guy with great musical insight and taste.
He was also well on his way to getting blind drunk on the sickly, medicinal wine he now proffered to Paul.
"Thunderbird, Bastille... a fine vintage." Bastille was Paul's "Mike-name". As part of the mystique, perhaps, Mike gave everyone a name of his own and, because it was Mike, these names stuck. An awkward situation one party, involving Paul, several rooms, several different girls in each of these rooms, and a little too much to drink, had led to his own Mike-name. When the dust from the cigarettes had settled, and the hangovers moved on to find other targets, Paul had discovered that he had arrived at the party with one girlfriend. During the evening, this had briefly increased to three girlfriends as he wandered from room to room. Then, after a few conversations in the morning between said girls, this number had finally settled to zero girlfriends. And a Mike-name. "Bastille by name, bastille by nature."
"Thanks, Jay," said Paul, using Wig's real name. He braced himself and took a mouthful of the Thunderbird fortified wine. In a wine tasting, he would have to describe the wine as having "powerful initial flavours of berries and battery acid, followed by a gentle numbness in the throat, eyes and nose, leaving an aftertaste of liver failure on the palate." The palate, of course, would soon be too drunk to care, which explained Wig's advertising tag-line for the nasty brew. Thunderbird... it gets you there.
"Mike wants us to play this evening, you know?" Said Wig with a smile. He had mastered a slightly off-centre smiling technique which, coupled with his monumental nose, and glitteringly clever eyes, made all around him smile too. "Mike's gonna be bloody lucky!" He pointed to the empty bottle of Thunderbird lying on the carpet beside him.
"Well..." Paul said. "Best catch up, then." He extracted a half bottle of whiskey from his jacket pocket. A small scrap of paper fell from the pocket with the drink. Paul picked it up and peered at it. A metro ticket for the Paris underground. The joys of second-hand clothing. "There you go, Jay... ticket home." He handed the stub to Wig.
"Give it to Mike... he'd go through French girls like a disease." Mike was getting ever closer to the young lady he was explaining the album cover to. He was a wealth of musical information, about bands, band-members, stories from the studio, stories from the tour bus. It was, however, likely that they were entirely made up, but fairy tales or not they had the desired effect. He enchanted people, and his latest acolyte was now only dimly aware of others in the room. She was lost in his voice; sucked deep into his eyes. Curiously, though, she was unlikely to be end up pulled under his sheets later. Mike wasn't like that. His conquests were little less than complete entrapment of the mind and the heart. Physical conquests were too tame for him; too everyday, too normal. Uniquely for an owner of a Y chromosome, Mike played hard to get.
It added to the mystique, the phenomenon, the event that was Mike.
"What you been up to, Jay" asked Paul, sucking back some whiskey.
"Hey, just the usual. As little as possible. But I went into town this morning, and you would not believe what I found in the back of Blair's." Blair's was the music shop of choice in town. It was far enough from the centre not to get blown up every fortnight by the Irish terrorist group of the moment, seedy enough to have cheap gear, and the Canadian who owned it looked like central casting's idea for a Led Zeppelin roadie. Legend was that Dave the owner wasn't actually Canadian, but had ran away there to avoid the Vietnam draft. However, this was a Mike story, so true or not everyone accepted it as adding colour to the overall tapestry of their lives. "I found a fucking Hammond... seriously, for real, a bloody Hammond organ in the back of the shop."
"Joking me... that's cool!" Paul played keyboards, and a Hammond organ was the ultimate wet dream for a keyboardist. "Just don't tell me how much."
"Okay." Jay looked away at others in the room. "Had a Leslie speaker too." He continued to aim his nose at other people in turn, firmly ignoring Paul. "And a cup of coffee with mould in it sitting on top."
"Alright. How much?"
"I can't say. You don't want to know. I like to respect your wishes."
"That's good, Jay. But I'm changing my wishes now. I would like to know."
"Humpffity pounds."
"What? How many pounds?" Hammonds would be dear, and Paul, Wig and Mike were very poor.
"Unatey pounds." Wig was being annoying. He looked serene in his annoyingness.
"Just tell me the bloody price, Jay!!! "
"One hundred and eighty new pounds stirling, sir." Wig looked directly at Paul, eyes wide and glistening. "One eighty. For a Hammond. With a speaker." He paused. "The coffee cup's probably extra."
"Bloody hell, Jay. That's insane. Did you tell Mike?" Wig nodded.
"Mike's dad just gave him a hundred for doing some work for him last week. And I'm getting the dole from next week... we need another fifty to buy it." Expectant glance. Paul shifted his weight, uncomfortably aware of the scrumpled ten pound note and change in his pocket which comprised his sole assets in this life.
"Crap. Did you ask Dave if he'd hold it for us? Do you think he'd do a deal?" Paul looked around the room, wondering how much they could pawn some of Mike's crap for. An old church incense censer caught his eye, a huge iron thing with window-like openings to let the incense out. It was being played with by one of the hippy chicks, who was lighting a small yet potentially lethal fire within it, feeding the flame slowly with tiny pieces of meticulously torn up paper.
"Well, yes he will. If we stump up fifty for a deposit, he'll let us have it for one fifty. He says no-one else wants it, because of a dodgy electric lead or something. But Mike reckons he can fix that." Paul did the sums. With a little help from his parents, they could be playing Hammond organ within the week.
"I think we can get it. God. I actually think we can get it."
"And get it we shall, my friends." Mike had detached himself from the LP reading girl and slipped on his bum over to his band mates. His eyes sparkled and a wide smile was on his face as he nursed a pint glass of water. "I spoke to the parent type people earlier on, and they provided us with a small sum of hard currency to get the magical organ in the morning." Mike enjoyed expanding language.
"That is amazing... I can't believe it! When will we go and get it?" Paul couldn't wait to add the mother of all keyboard instruments to his meagre collection of synthesisers.
"You don't mean 'morning' as in 'morning morning', Mike?" Wig raised his half-empty bottle. "Surely you mean 'lunchtime morning', or 'after I've stopped being sick, morning'?"
"I mean morning has risen morning, as in first thing in the morning, as in whenever Paul can get the Green Thing here in the morning morning." The Green Thing was Paul's car. His mother's car, actually, but he had the main use of it largely because he was the only one willing to fill the cooling system with water every ten miles. It was a Vauxhall and, at some point in its life it probably had a model name and technical details describing its engine, speed, economy, petrol type, and such motor-enthusiast stuff. However, now it was reduced to its colour – Green – and what it was – a Thing. It was the mode of transport for the band. Jay didn't agree with cars because they damage the environment, and Mike didn't drive. He was driven.
"Well, if it's morning morning then Jay and I should make tracks fairly soon." Paul put the whiskey down. The Green Thing needed a clear headed driver to caress it. Mike passed the water to Wig.
"My plans exactly... but first you drink this, Wigster, and secondly I feel the urge to produce some large rock-like noises next door." He clambered to his feet and helped Paul up. "I've everything ready – just put the mattress against the window and we're good to go." The mattress was the soundproofing. Although Mike's house was detached, and there weren't any neighbours directly beside it, with guitar, keyboards and Wig's drums clattering and wailing away, neighbours needed to be in another postcode not to notice. So the mattress cut the complaints down a little. It also fell on Wig's head every now and then during practice, so it was funny too, watching him trying to keep playing whilst being squashed like a peculiar spider with sticks for legs.
The three went into the practise room and, as Paul flicked on his synthesisers and amp, and Jay searched around for his drum sticks, Mike began the elaborate pre-flight checks of his bewildering array of effects pedals, amplifiers and leads before finally plugging his battered old Gibson copy electric guitar into the system. With a few clicks of the drumsticks, and the grinding hiss of Mike's overburdened amplifiers, the three transported themselves once again out of the dull suburb of a dull city in a dull, grey country, and into a multi-coloured, screamingly loud, landscape of music and meaning. Tomorrow they would return to the real world but, for tonight, as a few of the other party-goers slunk into the room and sat on the floor, they lost themselves in sound.
Sounds soon to be enhanced by the raucous coughing of the Hammond organ.

Having problems with your Digital Cameras ?
I haved a lens error on my Canon Powershot A570. It is not yet one year old.
Answers :
Hi morelle, thank you for using fixya.
the lens of your camera may have been stuck or a part of the actual assembly is stuck. When you shake the camera without the battery and a memory card, do you have a loose part inside?
also nudging the lens while the camera is on may also help. but if it does not move a bit, better get the camera to the vendor or a Canon service center and have the warranty running to get the camera repaired.

The Associated Press
Sasha Cohen's coach says the Olympic silver medalist intends to skate at the U.S. championships later this month.
Cohen has been working "very, very hard," longtime coach John Nicks says. The Chicago Tribune first reported Cohen's plans on Monday, with the skater telling the paper: "I've really put myself on the line for this."
Cohen's presence could add some badly needed buzz to the ladies competition, but her participation had been in doubt after she withdrew from both of her Grand Prix events because of tendinitis in her right calf. She hasn't skated competitively since the 2006 world championships.
The U.S. women have only two spots at the Vancouver Olympics.

Almond Brunch Loaf
Whole Grain Recipe
Almond cake and pastry filling combines with orange juice, orange peel and crunchy toasted almonds. Sprinkle bread with sugar for a nice finishing touch.
Recipe Ingredients
1/2 cup orange juice
1 egg
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 1/4 cups bread flour
1 tablespoon sugar
1-1/2 teaspoons active dry yeast
2/3 cup almond cake and pastry filling
3 tablespoons toasted almonds; chopped
1 teaspoon orange peel; grated
Orange juice
Recipe Directions
Add 1/2 cup orange juice, egg, butter, salt, bread flour, sugar and yeast to a bread machine according to manufacturers directions. Select dough cycle. When dough cycle is complete, remove dough from machine. Cover and let rest for 10 minutes.
On a lightly floured surface, roll dough into a 24 x 8-inch rectangle.
In a small mixing bowl, stir together the almond filling, almonds, and orange peel. Spread filling over dough to within 1/2-inch of the edges. Fold dough loosely from a short side, making about eight 3-inch wide folds. (This is similar to making a jelly roll, except you make folds 3-inch wide, instead of rolling it.) Transfer to a lightly greased baking sheet.
On one of the long sides, make eleven 2-1/2-inch cuts from the edge toward the center at about 3/4-inch intervals. Flip every other strip of dough over to the alternate side. Slightly twist each strip, exposing the filling. (The loaf will look braided when you are done flipping and twisting.)
Bake in a 350 oven for 25 to 30 minutes of until golden brown. If necessary, cover loosely with foil during the last 5 to 10 minutes to prevent overbrowning. Lightly brush the bread surface with orange juice. Sprinkle with sugar. Serve warm.
What Is Bread Flour?
Bread flour is a high gluten flour that has very small amounts of malted barley flour and vitamin C or potassium bromate added. Why use it? Bread flour has higher protein and will make a chewier bread.

Search FAQs
View all frequently asked questions
Yes, the failure to mail a statement or the failure of a property owner to receive a statement will not affect the validity of the taxes or interest prescribed by law (New York State Real Property Tax Law §922). In addition, neither the Tax Collector nor any other official has legal authority to waive statutory penalty charges. These are fixed by the Real Property Tax Law. If they are waived, the collecting officer will be personally responsible. As all records are audited by State examiners, there is absolutely no discretion in this matter. The Constitution and the law of the State mandates the procedure.
No. New York State Real Property Tax Law §925, provides as follows: "Payment of taxes by mail, when enclosed in a postpaid wrapper (envelope) properly addressed to the appropriate collecting officer and is deposited in a post office or official depository under the exclusive care and custody of the United States Post Office shall, upon delivery, be deemed to have been made to such officer on the date of the United States Postmark on such wrapper. The provisions of this section shall not apply in the case of postmarks not made by the United States Post Office. A postage meter postmark is not a postmark made by the United States Post Office and, therefore, is not within in the provisions of Real Property Tax Law §925. Payments can not be deemed timely because of a postage meter postmark date on an envelope containing a tax payment (Op. New York State Comp. 69-170).
If taxes are not received until after the due date, they are not paid until after the due date unless they fall squarely within the provisions of section 925 of the Real Property Tax Law, and the penalty must be added and collected. No Town Official or employee can waive the penalty (Op. New York State Comp. 68-626).
No. The Town has not yet entered into an agreement with a credit card processing center to enable tax payers to use any major credit card to pay their property taxes.
No. The Town of Monroe does not accept installment payments.
No, the warrant constitutes the mantle of authority for the collecting officer to receive the taxes. Therefore, the warrant must be regarded as the instrument which empowers the collecting officer to begin the collection. Collection authority can not begin prior to the date of the warrant.
Address changes must be made in writing. Notify either the Tax Office or the Assessor's Office by mail, e-mail or fax.
In order to make sure you will receive the tax bills prior to the penalty period (February for Town/County Taxes), you must notify the Tax Office in your Town. Send or fax a copy of the "Satisfaction of Mortgage" letter from your lender.

Property owners often confuse property taxes and assessments. For instance, some taxpayers attempt to "grieve" their taxes. You can grieve your assessment, but not your taxes. Assessments, not taxes, are determined by the assessor. Taxes are determined by school boards, town boards, and county legislatures. These jurisdictions are responsible for budget that establish taxe rates, not assessments. If you feel your assessment is too high, you should discuss it with your assessor and consider grieving your assessment ..
Grievance Day is always the 4th Tuesday of May. Grievance requests forms (RP-524) can be filed after the Tentative Assessment Roll is established on May 1st, up to 8pm on Grievance Day.

I think I get something wrong during the discussion or do not understand the quoted statements. Do you mean that only xml files written with a forrest-compliant dtd will still be processed if put in the raw directory, and that xml files written with dtd unknown to forrest can be put there and stay untouched ?

|I had a chance to take part in the first polo in 2017 in Lublin on this gloomy Sunday. Even though on loaner bikes, it was awesome to play with the boys, and THIS COURT!! <3
Hopefully, we will be able soon to get a court of this caliber for BPCK!
first polo in lublin this year
polfa fallout
|I'm coming up with a couple of pictures from our recent tournament at Polfa, Bike Polo Club Kraków home court.
It was one of the most fun tournaments I've ever experienced and I'm super proud of my friends at BPCK for helping me pull it off! Scarce photo report due to tournamnet organizer's duties [head over to the FB event page for some pictures from other polo zombies.]
Also - check out our special rules at the end of this post. Rules were random for each game including the finals!
Special post apocalyptic rules:
3 LAST GOAL WINS the team to score the last goal scored before the game is over wins
4 DOUBLE SCORE certain parts of the court give you two points per scored goal
5 BACKHAND GOALS only goals scored by backhand give you a score. Any other goals result in ball turnover
6 AGITATED teams make a shuffle. The team with majority of players of the original team wins
7 PLAYER REPLACEMENT each team can replace one player with another player from any team (each player can only sub once)
8 JUMPING JACKS TAPOUT instead of tapping out after a dab, you need to perform five jumping jacks where you dabbed
9 WRECKED MALLETS teams shuffle oldschool mallets from the past of polfa
10 SNIPER MODE tiny goals + no goalies
11 UNARMED PLAYER each team only gets two mallets. Players can switch mallets within the team
12 OBSTACLES obstacles on the court [oil drums]
7th polish champs
|Yet another #throwbackthursday post. Last month we went to Lublin again, this time to find out who's the Polish Hardcourt Bike Polo Champion 2016. The court was sick as always, a little wet at times, but it was definitelly one of the best Polish champs ever. It's funny how It's kind of an obligatory tournament each year, but also one that gathers Polish polo family together! Great people, awesome food, and really good quality polo!
Can't believe we've been playing for over seven years!!

Parental Controls
Could someone please help me with the parental control setting for the PS3 on the Playstation Network
I have a son who is aged 13 and has a sub account on PSN. I consider that he is mature enough to play some games that are rated 16. i have as far as i can tell removed all parental controls and he is able to play the campaign levels of these games without problem. However if he tries to play any of these games online a pop up message stated that the parental controls prevent him from doing so. The same is true of a game that is rated 12 (Quantum of Solace).
i have seen comments on some forums that suggest that the parental control settings on the PS3 console and under my main PSN account have no effect on online gaming and that this is actually controlled by Sony. If this is the case could someone please tell me at what age my son would be colnsidered mature enough to play these games online.
Re: Parental Controls
Welcome to the Forums.
Did you make a seperate account/PSN ID for your son & if so did you put his actual age of 13 in that account, if so that may be your problem.
Also games have ratings for a reason & you may well consider your son 'mature enough' to play an 'M' rated game, having said that what one person considers mature however is generally different from anothers.

Re: Parental Controls
Actually, there are separate parental controls for the PS3 console, and the Playstation Network. The parental controls for Playstation Network sub-accounts are managed from the Account Management screen of the master account. Log into PSN using the master account, select Account Management in the Playstation Network section of the XMB, and Sub-Account Management under that. In the Sub-Account Management section you can change the parental controls for any of the PSN sub-accounts associated with the master account. The parental controls for the PS3 are completely independent, and are in the Settings>Security Settings menu. In order to play a PS3 game that is rated higher than E online, both the PS3 System parental controls, and the Playstation Network sub-account parental controls, must be set to allow it.
That said, the parental controls are effectively advisory, meaning that it is up to the game to enforce the controls that you set; and the game developers are free to use the age of the account holder to enforce their own standard for whom the game is appropriate. The vast majority of games will allow online play by any PSN account if the parental controls allow it.

One of the games longest in production yet looked upon with almost unwavering anticipation during this generation of consoles is undoubtedly Fable, the soon-to-be-released RPG from mastermind Peter Molyneux and its development team, Big Blue Box.
While the game has seen a few of its insanely ambitious features fall to the wayside in order to make sure the game was actually finished at some point this millennium, it's still one of the deepest games you find anywhere, certainly in terms of NPC and world interaction. Also, growing horns after killing hundreds of innocent civilians makes it A-OK in our book as well.
IGN Xbox's Hilary Goldstein has marched his way through Albion and captured the hearts, heads and chickens of its townsfolk. Take a look at our lengthy, in-depth video review and see what Fable has in store for you.

Bubba Watson Wins His Second Green Jacket
AUGUSTA, Ga. (AP) — Bubba Watson has won the Masters for the second time in three years.
Watson claimed another green jacket by shooting a 3-under 69 in the final round Sunday, fending off Jordan Spieth's bid to become the youngest major champion since 1931.
The 20-year-old Texan led by two shots heading to the eighth hole, but the tournament changed suddenly.
Watson made two straight birdies, Spieth took back-to-back bogeys — and just like that, Watson was up by two strokes at the turn.
The left-hander led the rest of the way, adding to the 2012 title he won in more spectacular fashion with a playoff victory. The winning score was 8-under 280.
Spieth finished with a 72, his worst score of the week. He was 283 overall, tied with Sweden's Jonas Blixt.

Selling a boat
I live in Miami and I know people buy boats to run drugs around here. How do I protect myself when I sell my boat? The boat is Coast Guard documented.
Thank you,
Re: Selling a boat
What do you want to protect yourself from? If you ensure that you have a valid Bill of Sale and ensure that the documented boat ownership is transferred then you have done things correctly. If the new owners use the boat for nefarious purposes then it has nothing to do with you.

|Paul Pierce: 'Some days they fall, some days they don't'
|04.04.12 at 11:43 pm ET
When you have the reputation as one of the best clutch shooters in recent NBA history, you have to live with the occasional failure.
Wednesday night was that occasional moment of frustration for Paul Pierce as his shot from the right side of the free throw line extended hit the rim but never fell through, allowing the Spurs to escape with a heart-pounding 87-86 win Wednesday night at a breathless TD Garden.
Pierce was making no excuses for taking the inbounds pass from Rajon Rondo and using the last 7.9 seconds of regulation before missing the shot that would've dramatically extended the Celtics winning streak to six. The play called for Rondo to inbound to Pierce, facing the basket. Pierce then has the option of driving to the basket or recognizing who's guarding him and drive to a spot to get off an open jump shot.
When he saw Tim Duncan switch to guard him, Pierce chose the second option. Kevin Garnett was open but once Pierce put the ball on the floor with a dribble there was no time to get it to him for a clean shot. Instead, Pierce, as he has before dribbled to one of his favorite spots on the court.
"You just play the game and you see what happens, you don't know what to expect," Pierce explained. "There are numerous possibilities of things that could have happened when I come off the pick and roll and obviously they switched, they could have trapped, Stephen Jackson could have stayed on me, but that's not what I'm thinking about. You play a lot of this game on instinct and the things that happen, they happen on the fly and happen so quick. I like the shot that I took, but at the end of the day it came down to I thought lose balls, they got two huge offensive rebounds late for buckets and to me that killed us.'
'We got Paul into an iso," Doc Rivers said of the trademark isolation play that he has drawn up for Pierce many times before. "He got probably the shot he wanted. He just didn't make it… and they had a foul to give. So most teams switch. We actually said that they probably would and we were trying to get Duncan on a Paul matchup because we thought we had the speed advantage." Read the rest of this entry »
|Ray Allen and his 'pissed off' ankle make amends, appear ready for Wednesday return
|04.03.12 at 2:19 pm ET
WALTHAM — Ray Allen has always been one with his precisely tuned body.
So, when it speaks up, he listens.
Take the last two weeks for example. He tried playing several games on his sore left ankle – injured on March 12 in Los Angeles. But the pain in the ankle got worse and worse, to the point where he had to shut it down completely, starting March 23 in Philadelphia.
"I never liked taking shots or taking medicine. I tried to do everything as natually as I can. Sometimes your body needs a kick in the right direction. Physically, the time off was good. My ankle was kind of pissed off. I kind of gave it a little help and time off was good but getting that joint lubricated [was] more than it was otherwise."
Doc Rivers confirmed that if Allen is cleared to play on Wednesday, he will start and not come off the bench. The team is 5-1 in the six games without Allen and 5-0 with Avery Bradley taking Allen's spot at starting shooting guard.
Allen practiced with the Celtics for the entire session on Tuesday, and barring a late setback, is expected to start Wednesday night against the Spurs at TD Garden.
Allen has missed the last six games with an injured left ankle, suffered when he turned it late in the game against the Clippers on March 12 in Los Angeles. Allen said he had a cortisone shot on Sunday to help manage the discomfort and see if he could practice on Tuesday, which he did.
"I felt good to be out on the floor," Allen said. "My legs felt great today. I had a shot in the ankle on game day the other day and had all day [Monday] for it to manuver through my body and coming into today, I felt like I had two new wheels."
Allen said he is encouraged to the point where he believes he'll be ready to start on Wednesday night.
"Oh yeah, going through shootaround and kind of favoring it, holding it, feeling different feelings and wincing, I didn't feel that at all today," Allen said.
Other notes from Tuesday's practice in Waltham: Mickael Pietrus visited teammates at Celtics practice on Tuesday but had to leave because of the noise of the bouncing balls. Rivers said Pietrus, who suffered a concussion in Philadelphia on March 23, still has not been cleared for preliminary baseline tests on his head injury. '¦ Rivers indicated that Tuesday would likely be the last practice of the regular season, due to the compressed schedule the rest of the way, which including a series of three road games in three nights between April 13-15, when they play the Raptors, Nets and Bobcats.
|Flagrant foul: Glen 'Big Baby' Davis drops his pants
|01.19.12 at 10:23 am ET
When babies don't agree with something, they cry. When Big Baby doesn't agree with something, he pulls his pants down (he's already tried the crying route, and it didn't go over too well). Former Celtics forward Glen Davis pulled a Psycho Steve Lyons and dropped trou in the midst of a game — protesting an admittedly bad call during the Magic's 85-83 overtime loss to the Spurs. Watch carefully. It happens about five seconds in. As Celtics head coach Doc Rivers said Thursday morning on WEEI, thank God this didn't happen in the jock strap era.
|NBA Offseason Review: Southwest Division
|12.21.11 at 5:28 pm ET
Given the drama (and comedy) that was the NBA lockout, the ensuing free agency frenzy and the vetoed trade by a commissioner of a group of owners who was acting as the general manager of an individual team that is owned by that same group of owners, it's easy to get confused about who landed where. This is the third of six daily division-by-division reviews leading up to opening day.

|Three-Pointer: Rajon Rondo and 'coach's porn'
|04.01.11 at 12:34 am ET
What a difference a game makes.
The Celtics had been reeling, losing seven of their last 12 games and nearly falling to third place behind the Bulls and Heat in the Eastern Conference — inspiring concerns about everything from the physical health of both O'Neals to the mental health of their start point guard.
But the Celtics also hadn't played a contender in the last 12 games, or since Feb. 13 for that matter. The Celtics have proven themselves plenty over the last four seasons — as NBA champions in 2008 and as underdog runners-up in 2010 — but entering Thursday night's game in San Antonio they found themselves needing to prove themselves once again.
After the trade of Kendrick Perkins and following a 5-7 record with the East's No. 1 seed on the line, can the Celtics still compete with the NBA's best? After a 107-97 victory against the league-leading Spurs (57-18) on the road without a healthy center, the answer was clear. (The complete game recap can be found here.)
Among the Spurs, Lakers, Mavericks, Bulls and Heat, only Chicago can match the Celtics' performance against the NBA elite. Here are their records in games against each other:
- Celtics: 8-4
- Bulls: 8-4
- Spurs: 7-6
- Mavericks: 6-6
- Lakers: 4-7
- Heat: 3-9
The Celtics now boast a .667 winning percentage against the league's five other major NBA title contenders, and two of their four losses to those teams came against a Mavericks team that the C's likely won't face again, even if they were to return to the NBA Finals.
There's plenty of points to take from Thursday night's Celtics victory. Here are three of them:
|Fast Break: Rajon Rondo, Celtics kick Spurs
|03.31.11 at 10:38 pm ET
Rajon Rondo recorded 22 points and 14 assists (to go along with zero turnovers), leading the Celtics in an inspired 107-97 victory over the Spurs in San Antonio on Thursday night.
Paul Pierce and Kevin Garnett also eclipsed 20 points and Glen Davis netted 16 points off the bench for the Celtics (52-22). While Jermaine O'Neal returned after nearly three months to score five points in 11 minutes, Celtics starting center Nenad Krstic left the game with a "right knee injury" and did not return.
Tony Parker and Tim Duncan reached the 20-point mark as the Spurs (57-18) dropped their fifth straight.
Pierce and Rondo asserting themselves: Pierce scored 12 first-quarter points to keep the Celtics competitive despite allowing 33 first-quarter points, and Rondo sparked a 14-3 run to close the third quarter as the C's established a 77-70 lead entering the fourth quarter. In all, Pierce and Rondo took 36 shots, making 19 of them. Rondo was so good, even his jump shots were falling, causing the Spurs coaching staff to toss their hands up in disgust.
Buckling down on defense: After the Spurs made 12-of-24 shots and scored 33 points in the first quarter, the Celtics held them to 15-of-44 shooting and 37 points over the next two quarters. Entering the game as the league's sixth-leading scoring team, the Spurs controlled the (quick) pace in the early going, but the Celtics put a stop to that in the second quarter.
The return of Jermaine O'Neal: In limited action, O'Neal played with surprising energy and range of movement, considering he hadn't seen the court since Jan. 10. He knocked down his only two shots, including an impressive turnaround over Matt Bonner in the first quarter. Should Krstic's injury be severe, the Celtics will be relying more heavily on O'Neal than they ever expected, and Thursday night's performance was a positive sign.
Celtics' bigs problem gets bigger: Just as Jermaine O'Neal got back into the fold, and as Shaquille O'Neal gets closer and closer to his return, Krstic's leg bent the wrong way in the second quarter. He left the game clutching his right knee. Krstic did not return, and Celtics coach Doc Rivers told TNT sideline reporter David Aldridge, "We don't know for sure, but it does not look good." In 2006, Krstic tore his left ACL.
Defending the paint: The Celtics gave up 26 points in the paint in the first half and 50 total. Spurs point guard Tony Parker got to the rim at will early, leading all scorers with 14 points in the opening 24 minutes. His ability to penetrate opened things up for the Spurs inside. Of course, Garnett's two quick first-quarter fouls left the Celtics without their best interior defender in that span for more minutes than they would have liked.
Second-chance opportunities: The Celtics shot 48 percent in the first half, and the Spurs made just 40 percent of their attempts, yet the two teams were tied at the half. The C's allowed eight offensive rebounds and 15 second-chance points in the first half alone.
|Irish Coffee: Jermaine O'Neal's Celtics impact
|at 12:02 pm ET
Wake up with the Celtics and your daily dose of Irish Coffee '¦
On Feb. 1, when the Celtics began a two-month-plus stretch without either of the O'Neal "brothers," if you had to put your life savings on which one would return first, how many people would've put money on Jermaine O'Neal?
Not many, me included. I know I would've put my $47 on Shaquille O'Neal. And, as Dale Arnold might say, if you gave Doc Rivers Sodium Pentothal, he'd probably admit that he would've rather had Shaq back first. But that's not the case.
Jermaine O'Neal is returning to the Celtics lineup for the first time since Jan. 10, when his knee swelled to the point of no return. In 17 games this season, he had averaged 5.2 points and 3.8 rebounds in 18.1 minutes.
So, what, exactly, can we expect from Jermaine O'Neal? If we can agree that all the Celtics need to replace Kendrick Perkins' minutes are guys who can defend bigs, rebound the basketball and knock down open shots created by the Big Four, then J.O. can give you plenty. Not as much as Shaq, but it's something, right?
Let's start with defense. Here are the points per possession (PPP) and field-goal percentages allowed by Perkins, Shaq, J.O. and Nenad Krstic on man-to-man defense in their limited time as Celtics this season:
- Kendrick Perkins (7 games): 0.81 PPP on 41.0 percent shooting
- Shaquille O'Neal (36 games): 0.77 PPP on 37.6 percent shooting
- Jermaine O'Neal (17 games): 0.76 PPP on 35.2 percent shooting
- Nenad Krstic (17 games): 0.90 PPP on 44.2 percent shooting
In a limited sample size, Jermaine O'Neal actually gave the Celtics the best defense of all four guys. Even if he can give them 15 minutes a night, that might limit Krstic's ineffectiveness on the defensive end. When Shaquille O'Neal returns, the C's should finally have the defensive depth at center that can fill the void left by Perkins.
Now, let's look at rebounding. Here are the rebounding rates — or the percentage of missed shots corraled by a player in his time on the floor — for those same bigs:

Paul Reeves is a dealer known for the breadth of his expertise. For more than 30 years, he has sourced British design, from the 1840s to the 1960s, for clients ranging from pop stars to financiers.
Browsers at his quiet Kensington gallery might be surprised to hear that, before Reeves began supplying sublime furniture by 19th and 20th century British architects and designers to the British Museum and the V&A, he used to dress rock stars.
Reeves's career began in fashion. In the Sixties he was a designer and retailer, working under the label Sam Pig in Love, and later Alkasura, with a store on the Fulham Road. His flamboyant clothes were bought by Paul McCartney, The Rolling Stones, Jimi Hendrix, The Who and David Bowie – in fact, his garments are much sought-after collectors' items nowadays, and have found their way into exhibitions at the V&A and Museum of London.
It was a handful of his music-industry clients that encouraged Reeves on the path to antiques dealing and decorating. In 1973, Peter Grant, the manager of Led Zeppelin, asked Reeves to help him refurbish his home, a West End mews house. During the following 18 months, Reeves sourced everything from curtain material to cutlery, discovering a talent for interior design and love of beautifully made British furniture and textiles along the way.
Reeves opened a store in Kensington Church Street - his stock includes furniture and decoratives by some of the British greats, Christopher Dresser, William Morris, CFA Voysey and Charles Rennie Mackintosh - and acquired an inventory of showbiz clients: Bob Dylan, James Taylor, Barbra Streisand, George and Olivia Harrison, Gary Kemp, Brad Pitt and Roger and Heather Daltrey. One of his most passionate collectors of 19th century textiles was Led Zeppelin's guitarist, Jimmy Page.
Reeves's catalogue of collectors may be impressive but what's on offer in the exhibition and auction?
In the selling exhibition, prices are a little less precipitous than in the sale. More than 100 lots will include pieces from £750, such as an occasional table designed by Robin Day for Hille. But the real highlights can be found in the auction.
The undoubted star of the sale will be a Morris & Co tapestry, formerly owned by Page, designed in 1894 by Sir Edward Coley Burne-Jones. Holy Grail: The Achievement, is a Pre-Raphaelite masterpiece, 24ft long, originally woven for Stanmore Hall in Middlesex, and expected to reach the £1 million mark.
A collection of furniture previously owned by Gary Kemp (of Spandau Ballet and the film The Krays) features pieces by architect and designer Edwin William Godwin, including a rare hanging bookcase, valued at £60,000 to £80,000.
The Best of British, Design from the 19th and 20th centuries, 14-20 March, Sotheby's, 34-35 New Bond Street, W1 (020 7293 5000, www.sothebys.com).

Mary Louise Defender Wilson
Marie Louise Defender Wilson (October 14, 1930), also known by her Dakotah name Wagmuhawin (Gourd Woman), is a storyteller, traditionalist, historian, scholar and educator of the Dakotah/Hidatsa people and a cultural director working in health care organizations.
Early life[edit]
Wilson was born on October 14, 1930, near Shields on the Standing Rock Indian Reservation in North Dakota. Her mother Helen Margaret See The Bear, was a midwife and her grandfather, Tall Man See The Bear herded sheep. From a young age, Wilson was surrounded by the storytelling of her Dakotah speaking family. In 1954, Wilson became the second Miss Indian America.
Wilson held administrative jobs with Native American related government agencies before returning to the reservation in 1976. In the 1980s, she taught tribal culture and language at Sitting Bull College in Fort Yates, North Dakota. In 1999, Wilson released her first spoken word album, The Elders Speak. In 2002 her second album, My Relatives Say won the Nammy for Best Spoken Word Album.
The value of storytelling, Wilson says, is "Civilization means trying to understand ourselves as human beings, what we are born with. The Dakotah believe that all human beings born into this world have certain primitive characteristics and people have to be careful otherwise those will dominate that human being."[1]

Make Ahead: The cookies can be stored in an airtight container for up to 1 week. After 3 days, it's best to re-crisp them for 10 minutes in a 250-degree oven.
Servings: 30 cookies
- 4 large egg whites
- 1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
- 1/4 teaspoon coconut extract
- 1/4 teaspoon almond extract
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/8 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- 2 tablespoons semisweet chocolate chips or finely chopped chocolate, melted, for drizzling (see NOTE)
- 2 tablespoons trans-fat-free white chocolate chips or finely chopped white chocolate, melted, for drizzling (see NOTE)
Position oven racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven; preheat to 250 degrees. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone liners.
Combine the egg whites, cream of tartar, the coconut, almond and vanilla extracts and salt in the bowl of a stand mixer or hand-held electric mixer. Beat on medium-high speed until frothy.
Add the sugar 2 tablespoons at a time, beating to form a shiny, fairly stiff meringue. This can take 4 to 6 minutes. Remove the bowl from the mixer.
Sift the cocoa powder over the meringue, and use a flexible spatula to fold it in until the mixture is almost uniformly light brown. (It's okay if some streaks of white remain.) Transfer to a large resealable plastic food storage bag. Cut off 1/2 inch from one of the bottom corners. Use the opening to pipe 1 1/2-inch rounds of the batter onto the baking sheets, spacing the rounds 1 inch apart (15 to a sheet). Bake on the upper and lower oven racks for 50 minutes (no need to rotate the baking sheets), then turn off the oven and let the cookies cool in the oven for about 1 1/2 hours or until dry. The meringues will be slightly mounded.
Transfer to a wire rack with a sheet of parchment paper or baking sheet underneath. Drizzle the melted semisweet and white chocolate over the cooled cookies; let set before serving or storing.
NOTE: Melt the semisweet and white chocolates in separate small bowls in the microwave on MEDIUM for 20-second intervals, stopping to stir in between until evenly melted.
