"The Best Doggy Daycare & Boarding Facility in the Burbank Area!! "
Bow Wow Bungalow - POOR
I have a rescue and he is sensitive - I mentioned this to the staff and they seemed very accommodating and able to care for my dog. He has been boarded before and stayed with many friends - no problems. I mentioned that he needs a lot of attention, a close eye as he gets into new things, and most of all he needs to stay on his food schedule as he has a sensitive tummy. I provided the food, measurements and schedule. Two nights at Bow Wow Bungalow and he came home without an appetite, loose stool, and vomit. Worse, he got up in the middle of the night and went all over the place......he is so well trained and such behavior is not like him. I called BWB and they said, "we can't keep an eye on every dog" and "we had over 30 dogs here this weekend." Both comments were off putting as I paid $65 per night to keep him in a safe, fun, and well staffed place. Overall, my messages today were not returned, the staff was not knowledgeable and worse they didn't even apologize or sympathize with what I went through today. In the end, I get that my dog is my responsibility so I should have done a bit more research on this place. However, $130 for boarding and $274 for vet fees.....BWB will not get business from me again and I will certainly tell all my dog owner friends, vet, groomer, etc about BWB. POOR management, poor service and poor care. In the end, my pet suffered the most and is miserable today.
Bow Wow's Overrated.
Bow Wow Bungalow has a great area for the dogs...and that's about it. Staff is cold and impersonal. Since I've been going there, price has gone from $55 a day, to $60 a day, to $65 a day...over about 18 months. They're nickel-and-dime specialists. I walked out of there over Thanksgiving with a $10 "holiday fee" added to a $5 "Thanksgiving fee". When I mentioned it sounds like a double charge, I was told -- coldly -- to read it in the agreement. Today I was just charged $5 for a "card declined" fee...and as she's explaining it to me, she says something along the lines of, "it happens. People go out of town, and the bank sees charges wherever you went, and they see us charging your card in Burbank, and it declines." Which was my case. When I told her that, and asked the fee be waived, it didn't matter. "You're free to take your dog elsewhere," was her follow up. When I asked the owner about this outside the kennel, she said it was "what the bank charges us." Funny...I've had merchant accounts for almost a decade, and that's never the case with my businesses. Not one time.
Great place
Sasha goes here at least once a week and gets boarded here. Love that it is mostly outside with lots of toys, tunnels, and water to play !

Minister doubts fears of civil war
UNITED NATIONS (AP) — Iraq's foreign minister said Saturday he doubts the escalating violence in the country will lead to "an all-out sectarian or civil war."
Hoshyar Zebari gave several reasons in an interview with The Associated Press: the Shiite, Sunni and other communities "know their limits;" the violence is limited mainly to Baghdad and its suburbs; and Sunni and Shiite religious leaders have edicts against killing each other's followers. More than 4,500 people have been killed since April in a surge of violence by insurgents aimed at undermining confidence in the Shiite-led government. The violence began to surge after government security forces staged a deadly crackdown on a Sunni protest camp in the north.
The Sunni minority has grown increasingly angry over what it sees as unfair treatment at the hands of the government and tensions have risen markedly since U.S. forces withdrew in 2011.
The growing unrest is marked by frequent coordinated car bombings and other attacks blamed mostly on al-Qaida's local branch targeting police, the military and often Shiite Muslim areas. The carnage is intensifying fears that Iraq is heading back toward the widespread Sunni-Shiite sectarian killing that peaked in 2006 and 2007.
Zebari said the recent increase in terrorist or sectarian violence is partly a consequence of the spillover from the conflict in neighboring Syria.
He blamed extreme Shiite militias and al-Qaida's local branch in Iraq, known as the Islamic State of Iraq, which is believed to be trying to build on the Sunni minority's discontent toward what they consider to be second-class treatment by Iraq's Shiite-led government.
"It is limited with these two groups, not nationwide as a community rising up," Zebari said.

2009 BIG EAST Baseball Championship Schedule:
CLEARWATER, Fla. The University of South Florida (33-23) baseball team won their first game of the BIG EAST Tournament by defeating Pittsburgh 12-2 in eight innings.
The Bulls mercy ruled the Panthers (28-20) on a game-ending three run home run in the bottom of the eighth inning by Sam Mende.
"It started out a little shaky, but Randy [Fontanez] settled down," said head coach Lelo Prado. "I'm happy with the win. Now it's a matter of win and move on. After last week, when we didn't do a very good offensively, it was nice to see our bats going."
USF got a complete game eight inning performance from sophomore starter Randy Fontanez (7-3) who allowed a pair of runs and eight hits while striking out one. Pittsburgh scored a run in the first and in the second, but Fontanez held them scoreless over the final six innings.
"The first two innings, I was kind of excited, not playing well, but after that I settled down and got it done," said Fontanez. "We need to keep it going and hopefully keep hitting and pitching like we did today and make it to Saturday."
Pittsburgh starter Nate Reed (4-6) pitched 5.2 innings and allowed nine runs, seven earned, on 10 hits to take the loss.
The Bulls were led by Jonathan Koscso who collected three hits and scored three times. USF also got a pair of hits from four other players including Junior Carlin, Chris Rey, Sam Mende and Todd Brazeal. Mende collected four RBI while Brazeal walked three times.
With the victory over Pitt, the Bulls have now won their opening round game in the BIG EAST Tournament in each of the last three years. USF is now 2-0 all-time against the Panthers in the BIG EAST Tournament.
After Pittsburgh took the 1-0 lead in the first frame off a solo home run, USF tied it up with a two-out base hit by Chris Rey. The Panthers regained the lead in the second on a pair of base hits.
The Bulls broke open the game with eight runs over the next four innings, scoring three in the third, three more in the fifth and two in the sixth.
In the third, three consecutive USF batters reached base safely as Junior Carlin and Jonathan Koscso tagged base hits, Todd Brazeal reached on a walk, then Hunt reached on an error that plated a pair of USF runs. Chris Rey then hit into a double play, which allowed the Bulls' third run of the inning to score.
Two innings later Koscso ripped a double to left center then scored as Brazeal sent a base hit to center field. Hunt drew a walk, then Mende drove in Brazeal with a two-out base hit.
With two outs in the sixth, the Bulls loaded the bases for Chris Rey, who sent a long shot down the right field line that bounced off the ground, then the wall and into the maintenance area for a ground rule double that plated two runs.
In the eighth, got a walk from Brazeal with one out, and after Hunt flied out to left, pinch-hitter Brandon Smith was hit by a pitch to bring up Mende. Mende took the first pitch over the wall in left field to give the Bulls the 12-2 victory due to a 10-run mercy rule.
USF will play their second game of the tournament against Connecticut on Thursday at 10 a.m. at Bright House Field in Clearwater, Fla. The Bulls are 0-2 against UConn in the history of the BIG EAST Tournament after the Huskies defeated USF twice in 2007. After winning their first two games of the tournament in '07, the Bulls lost two straight to the Huskies 3-0 and 2-0 respectively to get knocked out.
The Bulls lost two of three games in 2009 against Connecticut March 27-29 in Storrs, Conn.

Pleat Front Bag
|By: Michelle B.
Sometimes I need a new basic bag ASAP, and I just can't afford to pay $500+ for the latest from the big designers. When this happens, I try to find the best bang for my buck, like this Pleat Front Bag. It's not a dated look, and the construction should hold up better than some of the cheaper options at discount department stores. This is a pretty classy, classic purse that would go with a lot of different outfits. Available at The Limited for $60.posted: October 7th, 2010

I got this from a friend in the Herd...
Michael Curry, Our Brother
Smitty, great introduction to the funeral. I, for one, would like to hear more detail and personal insight regarding the funeral if you feel like sharing. The little you wrote about the funeral had me totally glued ..
If you have the energy could you pick up from where you left off and describe the remainder of the service? If not, we understand. Man, this really reached out and grabbed me for some reason. I was right there with you. Maybe it's just me.....Thanks Lew, love you brother.
Rev. Mike McMillan/173d
You know, Mac, I awoke this morning around 3 a.m. thinking about what you said and thinking about Michael Curry, the young Sky Soldier killed in Afghanistan. I thought, yes, Macs right, someone should write something about the young man, but not me, I didnt know him personally nor had I ever met him. Im sure his buddies and members of his family have spoken and written all that could be recorded about him. So, why should I, what right do I have to even attempt to honor another one of ours who died at war? But, I understand its not a question of right or wrong; its that inner breath-taking hurt we all feel when we learn of the death of one of ours which moves us to try and express that hurt or hide it. Oddly, that hurt is not as great when the lost soul is from some other unit, yet the reality is no different, the pain and anguish felt by their family and friends are no different.
While there at the memorial service someone showed me a photo of the man. He was standing with his beautiful wife, a girl he met and married in Italy, holding her close; a friendly, smiling face of a young soldier so proud of his wife. Michael Curry looked like someone I would like to have known. Sometimes you can sense the goodness of a person by simply looking at their faces in a photo. I think Mike was a good man.
Since the first notice was circulated describing the circumstances of his death, and given the fact 1st Sergeant Michael Curry hailed from Dania Beach, FL, a few hours from where Bill Vose and I live, Bill hounded me almost daily to join him at the memorial service there. Bill knows I dont like attending funerals or such services, yet he continued to urge me to go with him. Now, Im glad I did.
Enroute to the address in Dania Beach I became lost. I shouldnt have, I had lived over 25 years in Miami not far from there, but I was lost. My eldest son, Don the Wise, gave me directions by phone and I arrived the church about ½ hour before the service was scheduled to begin. I recall thinking Im old enough to be Mikes father, he was the same age as my youngest son, Dan the Wild. I had anticipated a small group of family and friends and maybe a few soldier buddies of the fallen trooper would be there in attendance. It was a hot day, humid, the temperature hovering around 100 degrees.
Turning the corner to the church I immediately saw U.S. flags, maybe twenty or thirty flags lining one side of the street held by twenty or thirty Vietnam veterans, mostly biker dudes and their dudettes, wearing their leather jackets, riding boots and war patches, their Harleys silently parked nearby. After parking I slowly walked up to these men and women, exchanging hellos with a few of them. One drill sergeant type was standing in the middle of the street barking orders to this squad to keep their spaces even, hold the flag upright, and other army type orders. I moved across the street where I could better take in this sight.
My first thought about the bikers was cynical. I thought what the hell are you people doing here. You didnt serve with Mike, youre not Sky Soldiers, is this just something to do to posture, show off your patches and bikes, I thought. Youre not even paratroopers. I then learned of another memorial service held in another city at another time to honor another vet killed in the Middle East where war protesters took that opportunity to display their anger about the war. It must have been extremely disturbing to the family members of that fallen soldier. And I learned these biker dudes in their biker regalia were on-guard, pulling duty as they had before in another lifetime, another war. No protesters this day would be allowed anywhere near this service, and pity those who tried. My first reaction to them now bothered me, I was so wrong to pre-judge these patriots, these brothers.
Standing across the street, shirt now soaked wet from the heat and humidity, I noticed one man about my age was wearing a 173d Airborne hat. I walked up to him with hand extended and asked him with which unit he had served. He told me he hadnt but his son was now serving with the 173ds first battalion in Afghanistan, Mikes battalion. The mans son had been a friend of Mike. We briefly chatted and I wished him and his son well, thinking he must be thinking, will he be one of the family members at some similar event in the future.
The start time of eleven a.m. came and went as I and the flag holders across the street stood quietly, quietly sweating. I thought of George Bush and his cronies and wondered if they were aware of todays planned services. Had they even read Mikes name on some daily report? I suspect they had not. Mike was a soldier, not a General, not a politician, simply doing his duty at the time his life was taken from him. I wondered if jets with the missing man would fly overhead ..of course, there were no jets, Mike was a soldier.
I had spoken with Bill by cell phone and he told me hed be there soon, but the start time was near and there was no sign of my friend. It was then the drill sergeant yelled to everyone to take their flags and run around the corner to again line-up; we were standing in front of the wrong church. This maneuver was accomplished before the arrival of the black limousines carrying Mikes family to this service. Police cars had by now blocked-off access to the street fronting the church where the memorial service would be held.
Vietnam vet buddy Jim Nantkes of the 3/503d walked-up to me wearing a suit and tie, clearly on the verge of heat exhaustion, like most of us. We shared some war stories and agreed it was indeed a sad day here. We spoke with an old, small, thin man wearing a VFW hat and shirt, a WWII vet, a sailor. It was good to talk with him and we thanked him for being part of our countrys Greatest Generation and for helping save the world. This friendly, meek old sailor just smiled. Fortunately for all of us one of the VN vets was there with a pickup truck loaded with ice water; his lady walking by giving water bottles to anyone in such need, which was all of us.
We were told Michael was or would be interred in Italy. We had heard this before and couldnt quite figure out why Italy and not the U.S., until we learned his immediate family lived there. We spoke of the pain his wife and children must be experiencing at this very moment, like so many other family members who would soon be across this street, and those across this land.
There was still no sign of Bill and his son Jeff as a staff sergeant wearing a 173d combat patch marched the honor guard of paratroopers carrying M16s into the street and in front of the church. There, facing the entrance to the church they came to attention, a bugler off to the side in anticipation of the arrival of Mikes family. They stood there for the longest time until the sergeant put them at parade rest, sweat dripping off them as they made not a movement. It was then about six or seven VN vets from the local VFW wearing white hats and shirts took their position in front of Jim and me. The wait continued, the biker dudes and their dudettes lined-up down the street, on-guard; there was quiet all around.
Off to our right we then see black limos turn onto the street where the flags, honor guard and vets were waiting. Slowly, very slowly the cars moved towards us, the honor guard and all of us coming to attention. As the car doors opened an order was given to present arms! which we all did. We stood there at rigid attention, sweat running down our bodies, many of us trying hard to keep our salutes steady as Mikes grieving family were escorted into the church. Order arms! finally came as the last of his family entered the building.
The Staff Sergeant in command marched his squad to a shaded area nearby as services in the church began. Later, one of the troopers walked past us and I stopped him to ask which parachute unit they were in, I didnt recognize the patch. He said they were the 509th Airborne, my former unit in Germany; and I didnt remember the patch.
The church was a small white building in this small community in Dania Beach, no doubt built to accommodate no more than 100 people, yet well over 100 people entered its doors. I saw Bill arrive and quickly move to the church where he joined those in attendance, Jim and I preferring to remain outside. The service, scheduled for one hour lasted nearly two hours.
Nearing the end of the service the front doors of the church were opened. We then heard the singing. Voices of every belief, age and gender joined one another as they sang together God Bless America. It was a moving rendition and spoke to something bigger, more meaningful than anyone of us alone. It spoke of unity and hope and sorrow.
Then we heard his voice from inside the church. A seemingly hard-as-nails First Sergeant with the 173d Airborne called out loudly, Michael Curry?!! (silence) Michael Curry?!! (silence) 1st Sgt. Michael S. Curry?!! There was no reply as the honor guard fired their salutes and Taps began to play.
As the family departed we again saluted them and thought of Mike. I would like to have known him, for you see, he was and will forever remain our brother.
Airborne Mike! All the Way!
Smitty Out
2/503d, 173d Airborne
On July 25th, 2007 the Department of Defense announced the death of a soldier who was supporting Operation Enduring Freedom.
1st Sgt. Michael S. Curry Jr., 37, of Dania Beach, Fla., was killed July 23 in Sarobi District, Afghanistan, of wounds suffered when an improvised explosive device detonated near his vehicle. Curry was assigned to the 1st Battalion, 503rd Infantry Regiment (Airborne), 173rd Airborne Brigade Combat Team, Vicenza, Italy.

Alternator Upgrade .....DIY

Alternator Upgrade .....DIY
The first step is to disconnect the battery and then proceed to remove the stock alternator. You will notice that the stock alternator is held on by one small bolt on top and one long bolt on the bottom. The 3G alternator does not have a threaded hole for the upper bolt. There are two options we have, either you can run a nut and bolt (3/8" size) or you can heli-coil the hole to accept the stock 3/8" bolt which is what we decided to do here as seen in the picture. Just follow the instructions included in the heli-coil kit if you do decide to go this route. The hole in the alternator is already the correct size, you only need to tap for the heli-coil
Once the alternator has been removed, we will need to modify the stock bracket since the 3G alternator case is larger. You will need a dremel or other cutting device. If you cannot find one or borrow one, you could do it with a file but you will be working at it for a while. Here are some pics of the clearancing needed for the alternator to fit:
Once the clearancing is complete, you can proceed with the wiring installation. You may have noticed during the trial fitment of the 3G that it was a tight fit in the lower mounting hole. There is a bushing that allows the slack to be taken up with different size alternators. Go ahead and tap the bushing back with a hammer so that the fit will be better. Once you actually mount the alternator and start to tighten the bolt, the bushing will be brought back in by the bolt to the proper position. The question of whether you have underdrive pulleys now comes into play. If you have installed underdrive pulleys on the vehicle, you may not be able to spin the 3G fast enough at idle especially if you are using an electric fan or large stereo system. The owner had a large stereo system and needed all the power he could get at idle. We decided to install the factory alternator pulley from the 75 amp which is smaller in diameter and will allow the alternator to spin faster at idle to give a complete charge. Another nice alternative is an overdrive pulley sold by Auto Specialties that is a mere 1 and 3/4" in diameter. You can elect to use the pulley that comes with the alternator and see what your car requires once under a load.
You will need to remove the factory tape from the harness to expose the union of the two 10 gauge wires which are black with an orange stripe. This D shaped plug with the two large 10 gauge wires also has a very small white with black stripe wire. This wire will be cut off the terminal and used on the 3G in a different location. Once the location of the 10g wire has been found, cut the union and tape or use a butt join to cover up the end of the 10 gauge wire. This wire will still have power since we will need to leave the wire hooked up at the starter solenoid due to the voltage sensing wire that shares the fuse link. This is what your new alternator harness will consist of:
You will leave the D shaped plug alone and have the single white with black stripe wire. The factory harness for the 3G uses a special plug for the small white/black stripe wire. You can get the plug from the local junkyard, use the complete harness available from Ford Racing or use a small female spade connector, it's your choice. We spent part of the afternoon looking for one at the local junkyard, but as you will see it looks much more like a factory installation:
You will need to run your new 4 gauge wire along with the factory harnesses that run in front of the radiator. You can use zip ties or tie straps to hold the new wire to the existing harnesses. The factory wiring goes underneath the battery tray. You may decide to run your 4 gauge under the battery or just run it behind the battery. The owner of the vehicle was looking for a factory installation so the battery tray came out as seen in the picture:
Now comes the time to install the fuse or fuselink you previously decided to use. Here we used two 12 gauge fuselink sections 6 inches long. We used a 4 gauge butt connection with solder to join the wires together and then used heat shrink to protect from short circuits. As you can see, it makes for a cleaner installation:
You need to install a ring terminal and install it to the starter solenoid battery side. You can now remount your battery tray if you decided to go the factory way.
Now you can mount your ring terminal to the other end of the 4 gauge and mount it to the alternator stud. Connect the remaining D shaped plug and white/black stripe wire as seen in this picture:
Go ahead and mount your new alternator and make sure your wires are all nice and tied up so that they do not get caught on any moving parts or near any hot header pipes. Once everything is tight, go ahead and install your fan belt and reconnect your battery. Make sure that there are no tools left in the engine compartment and fire it up! You should notice that the amp/battery light will go out and the factory gauge will shoot up a little above the midway point. Your charging system will now be able to handle most anything you can throw at it
list of the materials
-1995 Mustang GT 5.0 alternator from the local parts store
-7 ft of 4 gauge wire
-12 gauge fuselink wire
-3/8" ring terminal for 8 gauge wire (for the two 12 gauge fuselink wires to the starter solenoid)
-1/4" ring terminal for 4 gauge wire for installation to the alternator stud.
-4 gauge butt connector and heat shrink for it. Most large butt connectors (6 gauge and up) do not come with insulation
-3/8" coarse thread heli-coil kit for the upper mounting bolt or a 3/8" bolt 1 1/2" long with a nut
-convoluted tubing for the 4 gauge wire to protect it from scuffing and for looks
-factory alternator plug for the stator wire (white/black stripe). Available sources are the local junkyard or Ford Racing
-electrical tape
-zip ties or tie straps

Superman with Cats: You Will Believe a Man Can Haz Kittens
As such we have compiled a gallery of images featuring Superman with cats, cats as Superman, and most delightfully Superman as a cat in a wonderfully insane Silver Age story. More on this as it develops.

The fact that the collection was inspired by the 1982 film Querelle seemingly explains much. Before my time, it's a film I haven't taken in so I turned to IMDb to find out more: "French sailor Querelle arrives in Brest and starts frequenting a strange whorehouse." Rest assured that much of MaxMara's autumn / fall 2012 collection has been inspired by the film's costuming, while there's little to suggest that any part of it has been inspired by the strange whorehouse the film's namesake has a passion for. Unless what was strange about that whorehouse was that its staff dressed rather masculinely.
This I know not, intrigued as I am about precisely how much stranger this whorehouse could be than any other whorehouse in the world. A purchase from a DVD store will have to scratch that itch. But for those looking to scratch an itch that involves the masculine tailoring so consuming Milan fashion week, then MaxMara's fall 2012 offering might be right up your alley. (If you think that's a lady of the knight pun, revel in it. If you don't, move on.)
Here's the problem that's going to emerge with feminine androgyny when winter 2012 comes around: it's probably not (yet) sexy enough for most people to want to invest in. There's a good portion of the fairer sex (and a bigger portion of men happy to accommodate them) who would rather throw on a dress or skin tight pants than they would experiment with anything resembling men's clothing. And while this burgeoning trend offers up masculinity in a feminised silhouette aplenty, it doesn't offer up the overt head-turning appeal that androgyny as we've come to know it (thanks Helmut Newton) largely has. MaxMara have, however, solved that problem for the mass market. Tailored shorts. Not genius, somewhat obvious, but 100% required for the feminised androgyny look to have mass appeal. And MaxMara know a thing or two about mass appeal.

It was not a good week to be named Tyler, as Tyler Clark and Tyler Collins both were knocked off the rankings. They were replaced by a West Michigan reliever and our first Connecticut Tiger to make the list. The top three remains the same, but some players fell hard after a rough week.
A reminder: These rankings come in a vacuum. A player's upside or position in the farm system has no effect. We already do a list of top prospects. This list is for which minor leaguers are performing the best, period. Only players currently in the minors are eligible.
Have any questions? Disagree? Take it to the TigsTown Premium Forum or tweet me @ChrisVannini and see if you can persuade me to change things.
Here are the new TigsTown Power Rankings:

Who walks away from the Lakers?
Dwight Howard, that's who. Dwight Howard and nobody else.
But that's not what's going to be important about this. What's going to be important is what happens next.
If Dwight Howard walks away from the Lakers and wins a championship or championships, he'll be the guy who boldly wrote his own script -- a Hall of Famer who overcame the childish proclivities of his late 20s and turned into a winner who didn't want to follow anyone. He'll be the guy who took $30 million less for what he perceived as a better chance to win.
If the Lakers never win another championship after Howard leaves -- and, fat chance of that, with enough cap space next summer to assemble a version of the U.S. Olympic team -- they'll still have 16 of them. It's going to take a lot more than Dwight Howard, with zero championships to date, walking away from LA to cripple the Lakers' winning legacy.
What else could happen ... hmm, let's see. Oh yeah, Dwight Howard could walk away from the Lakers and wind up living out his prime basketball-playing days with all the notoriety of a tumbleweed. If the Rockets don't win a championship with Howard, he'll have any number of fallback scripts to peddle. He shouldn't have left Orlando … or, better yet, he shouldn't have stood in the way of an inevitable trade to the team he really wanted to play for, the Brooklyn Nets, by inexplicably waiving his opt-out clause hours before the March 2012 trade deadline. He could go there, if he wanted to.
The lesson from the overreaction to LeBron James' clumsy but since validated "Decision" to leave Cleveland for Miami in 2010 is that these things need time to play out. If on the day of James' announcement, we'd known that three years later he'd have matured immeasurably and won two championships, there would've been nothing to criticize. Dan Gilbert would've sent that snarky, comic sans missive to a few close friends and relatives and that would've been it.
So the beautiful thing about Howard's decision to shun the Lakers -- and five-time champion Kobe Bryant, and the franchise's glimmering legacy and the chance to join the greatest Lakers who ever played in basketball immortality -- is that nobody knows how it will work out. As much as we need to praise and tear down everyone in this 24-second news cycle, we can't grade this decision yet. It's too soon.
But one thing Dwight Howard cannot do -- can never do -- is look back on leaving the Lakers with any regrets or expectations that it can ever be undone. You can leave Orlando and survive if it doesn't work out. You can go to Houston and survive if it doesn't work out.
Leaving the Lakers, though? That's forever. If nothing else, finally there is something about Dwight Howard that will have staying power.
One line from Lakers GM Mitch Kupchak's statement upon being informed of Howard's decision grabbed me: "To Dwight, we thank him for his time and consideration, and for his efforts for us last season. We wish him the best of luck on the remainder of his NBA career."
That last part -- "on the remainder of his NBA career" -- says it all.
And as Howard did his handler-arranged media interviews in the wake of choosing the Rockets, a line from Howard -- to my friend Dave McMenamin of ESPNLosAngeles.com -- grabbed me, too.
"The timing in LA, it wasn't right for me," Howard said. "Maybe two years ago, or two or three years from now, it would have been the right time."
No, it was never the right time for Howard and the Lakers, and it will never be the right time. They're cut from different cloths. That was obvious, watching him labor uncomfortably through his only season at Staples Center -- a fish out of water, a court jester with no subjects, a performer who didn't understand his audience.
Howard has famously changed his mind before -- three times in 24 hours leading up to the 2012 trade deadline, when he waffled and ultimately decided to waive his early-termination option and commit to another season in Orlando. That colossal mistake was undone five months later -- though with a trade to the Lakers, whom Howard never truly wanted, instead of with a trade to Brooklyn, the place he preferred all along. Now Howard is in Houston, and it's been such a monumental task unraveling all the poor choices he's made, he's probably hard-pressed to even remember how he got there.
We could spend hours going over the filthy underside of the NBA business and retrace all of Howard's steps -- how he concluded that teaming up with James Harden, who left a championship situation in Oklahoma City, was a better idea than playing his prime years with the franchise that gave the basketball world some of its greatest champions. (Harden turned down a four-year, $52 million extension from the Thunder, thus forcing a trade to the Rockets.) We could analyze the unavoidable, yet still unseemly conflict of interest inherent in agent Rob Pelinka's role in all of this. Pelinka, after all, represents Harden, who lobbied Howard to leave Bryant, who is Pelinka's most accomplished client, which could result in Bryant being denied his last, best chance to win his sixth championship. Gross? No, just part of the business.
Be that as it may, and understanding that Howard's decision cannot be validated or repudiated today, one thing has to be made clear. Whether leaving the Lakers winds up being the best or the worst thing Howard ever does will not change one irrefutable fact: It can never be reversed. There are no do-overs.
Leaving the Lakers is something that only Dwight Howard would do, and it is something he has to own forever. And not just if it works.

Publication Date: 12/9/2003
Citation: Polashock, J.J. 2003. Screening for resistance to botryosphaeria stem blight and phomopsis twig blight in blueberry.. Meeting Abstract. Paper No 4. Interpretive Summary:
Technical Abstract: Stem diseases of blueberry can cause significant crop loss as well as loss of entire bushes. Stem diseases also tend to be more difficult to control with fungicides than foliar or fruit diseases. We have initiated a program to screen blueberry cultivars for resistance to two important stem diseases namely Botryosphaeria stem blight (Botryosphaeria dothidea) and Phomopsis twig blight (Phomopsis vaccinii). An attached stem assay was used for both pathogens in which the tips of selected branches were pruned off and the cut surface was inoculated with an agar plug containing the pathogen. Inoculated surfaces were covered with Parafilm and lesion lengths were recorded every two weeks. Final measurements were taken 4 weeks (B. dothidea) and 6 weeks (P. vaccinii) after inoculation. Whole potted plants representing 52 cultivars were used for the study. For stem blight, lesions varied from about 10 mm in resistant cultivars to around 140 mm in susceptible varieties. The half-high (V. corymbosum x V. angustifolium) cultivars Chippewa and Northblue were the most resistant with the highbush cultivars Bluecrop, Brigitta Blue and Duke being the most susceptible. Phomopsis lesions ranged from about 18 mm to about 98 mm. Lowbush cultivars were the most resistant including 'Chignecto and 'Blomidon'. The most resistant highbush cultivars were 'Bluechip' and 'Rubel', both with an average lesion length of 26 mm. The most susceptible cultivars were the highbush 'Legacy' (67 mm) and the southern highbush 'Emerald' (98 mm). Those that were more resistant to one of the pathogens tested, were not necessarily resistant to the other, suggesting that different mechanisms may be associated with resistance to any given pathogen.

Energy & Environment
On the Wild Side
Local officials who govern the counties will determine whether their rich biological legacies will be squandered.
Few places are more dissimilar than Westchester County, New York, and Madison County, Montana. Nearly a million residents live in Westchester's suburban communities, crammed into 450 square miles east of the Hudson River and north of New York City. Madison County remains rawboned ranching country, where just 7,000 people live in a 3,500- square-mile expanse that sits northwest of Yellowstone National Park.
But Westchester and Madison counties both occupy critical frontiers in the nation's wildlife policy. Madison County's rugged mountains and wide open valleys are replete with grizzly bears, wolves, wolverines, badgers, trophy deer and elk, and a world-renowned trout fishery. Westchester's rolling hills, sugar maple forests, meadows, ravines and swamplands serve as crucial habitat for black bears, coyotes, red foxes, warblers, turtles and tortoises.
Both counties, one suburban and one rural, occupy some of the richest ecosystems that remain in North America. And it will be up to local officials who govern the counties to determine whether those biological legacies will be squandered.
That's because the federal and state governments can never set enough land aside to give wildlife populations sufficient room to thrive. Wild animals need space to migrate, escape harsh winter weather and replenish genetic diversity. All that movement can take them onto privately owned lands. Meanwhile, local officials write land-use plans, enforce zoning rules, review new subdivisions, approve industrial parks and set aside open space. They make calls every day that determine how much of the country's biological resources will be salvaged.
For the past seven years, the Wildlife Conservation Society, an international organization based at New York City's Bronx Zoo, has been collaborating with local towns to protect critical private lands. Along the Hudson River watershed, "we have a resource that's globally significant, and the better land-use planning we have, the fewer species will get to the brink of crisis," says biologist Michael W. Klemens, who runs the group's Metropolitan Conservation Alliance.
Klemens served for several years as the chairman of the Rye, New York, planning board, so he knows what local officials are up against. He's working with seven Westchester towns and some Connecticut communities to map their biotic resources and protect them as development creeps their way. The plans incorporate acquiring open space and conservation easements, and lay the groundwork for protecting wildlife corridors, strengthening wetlands regulations, limiting road construction and clustering new houses to keep people away from crucial lands.
Just as critically, the contiguous towns of Yorktown, Cortlandt, New Castle and Putnam Valley have begun working together on inter- municipal agreements for managing habitat that overlaps their jurisdictions. "Watersheds cross boundaries, and woodlands cross boundaries," says Yorktown Town Supervisor Linda Cooper. "If you protect a wetland but not the upland area next to it, you've done just as much damage."
Landscapes are much more expansive out West, but threats to wildlife are just as serious. Around such resort boomtowns as Aspen and Sun Valley, developable lands have just about filled up, and developers are turning to even more remote Rocky Mountain counties. State game and fish biologists warn that planned subdivisions will disrupt elk and deer habitat and break up corridors that moose, grizzlies and wolves wander through continuously. But growth overwhelms counties with one-person planning staffs and no zoning codes to prevent disruptive projects.
There's more at stake than wildlife. Some Madison County ranchers have concluded that all-out development that drives out trophy elk and clouds blue-ribbon trout streams would also spell the end of a way of life their families pioneered a century ago. They've begun working with Wildlife Conservation Society biologists and other environmental groups to assess the Madison River valley's wildlife resources. They're not ready for zoning, but they're at least contemplating whether the county needs something tougher than unenforceable subdivision standards. "We can have voluntary guidelines until it's all gone, and then we'll say we wish we'd done it differently," worries Lane Adamson, the Madison Valley Ranchlands Group director, who also sits on the county planning board.
In Westchester County, public officials already are grappling with the congested traffic, polluted air, surging stormwater and lifeless landscapes that have resulted from land-use mistakes decades ago. In protecting wildlife, governments will be able to keep water clean, leave open space alone and hang on to the colorful fall foliage, chirping songbirds and other natural pleasures that keep communities livable for human occupants. Says Cooper, the Yorktown supervisor, "If we create a barren environment for wildlife, I don't think it's healthy for people, either."

Key members of the Obama administration have escalated the feud between their camp and Fox News by encouraging other networks to give their right-leaning competitor the cold newsy shoulder, prompting an indignant Karl Rove to remark, via Fox News, that said Obama aides are "going to cut your legs off" if they're opposed—a curious comment coming from someone still picking pieces of other people's legs out of his teeth.
For a less Murdochian take on the matter, click here. —KA
Fox News:
White House chief of staff Rahm Emanuel told CNN on Sunday that President Obama does not want "the CNNs and the others in the world [to] basically be led in following Fox."
Obama senior adviser David Axelrod went further by calling on media outlets to join the administration in declaring that Fox is "not a news organization."
"Other news organizations like yours ought not to treat them that way," Axelrod counseled ABC's George Stephanopoulos. "We're not going to treat them that way."
[...] Fox News contributor Karl Rove, who was the top political strategist to former President George W. Bush, said: "This is an administration that's getting very arrogant and slippery in its dealings with people. And if you dare to oppose, they're going to come hard at you and they're going to cut your legs off."
Obama adviser David Axelrod gives an off-camera George Stephanopolous a look of—restrained disdain? Amusement, perhaps?—on ABC's "This Week" on Sunday.

Mommy feels bad for this being so late today, but today is Daisy's birthday!! She turned 11 years old today! She has been so excited today - it's like she knew what was coming: she got a spoonful of Peanut Butter and some treats! MOL Her and Toby have always gone crazy for PB so she has been one happy girlie today!!
Mommy and everyone was worried about Daisy when Toby passed. They were very close - when Toby would leave for the vet, Daisy would go NUTS waiting for him to come back. But she has been doing great!! She has stayed very happy and we are so relieved! I'm sure it doesn't hurt that she's been getting some extra lovin's to help make sure she doesn't go into a depression ;-) She's loving the extra attention :-) Also, when Mommy feels sad about Toby, she goes and loves on Daisy and I think it's been very therapeutic for them both.
Thank you to everyone for their support during Toby's journey to the Bridge. We're sorry we haven't been on sooner, as promised, but Mommy hasn't been on the computer much. We appreciate each and every one of you for your support during this time. Thank you for the pawmails, rosies, and stars that you all have sent to us. Each message made Mommy cry because they were so sweet and heartfelt.
Mommy and Grandma took Toby to the vet the morning after his passing so that he could be cremated. He was supposed to be ready to pick up today but we have not received our call yet, so I guess we will be able to bring him home tomorrow. The place the vet's office works with for cremations is north of us, in Maryland, and southbound traffic was horrible today - we're guessing that caused the delay. Mommy will be happier when Toby is back home us.
I also wanted to thank everyone who helped me celebrate my birthday! Whew! What a week we had last week! Toby's birthday, Toby's journey, then my birthday! Granddad said, "What a roller coaster...Can we end the week on a high note with Harry's birthday, please?" Thankfully that's exactly what happened. Thank you thank you thank you to everyone who celebrated with me and sent me messages and gifts!
Toby passed away last night just after midnight. Mommy was with him and telling him how much we love him as he passed. It was very peaceful.
Mommy is going to get some rest after this long night, but we wanted to update all of our friends first. We will post more information later after mommy's nap.
Thank you to everyone who has kept Toby and our family in your thoughts and prayers during Toby's courageous fight with heart disease.

Potential Off-Season Targets: First Basemen
The Pirates need to upgrade over Jones at first base this off-season.
A week ago I looked at some options to fill the starting pitching needs for the 2011 Pittsburgh Pirates. Since then, a few names and rumors have emerged, with the focus mostly being on pitching. Despite the coverage focusing around pitchers, the 2011 Pirates have a few more needs on the team. One of the needs is either a first baseman or a right fielder.
In my current 25-man roster projection I have Garrett Jones projected as the starting first baseman, and Lastings Milledge as the starting right fielder. Jones had a breakout year in 2009, but saw a regression in his numbers during the 2010 season. He hit for a .247/.306/.414 line in 592 at-bats with 21 homers. He had trouble against left handers, with a .220...

Monk With a Camera is now playing at Alive Mind Cinema Online Film Festival.
Photographer Spotlight: Nicholas Vreeland by Michael Kurcfeld
It is not unusual for a photographer to strive for transcendent images and so reach beyond the mere recording of the world before their camera. It is far rarer to find a spiritual devotee whose practice leads them to refine their photographic art. In what ways could the realms of photography and spirituality entwine and mutually nourish? And how can a faith built on the idea of impermanence embrace an art that freezes time? There are answers to be found in the story of Nicholas Vreeland.
One might expect that the grandson of fashion doyenne (and long-time Vogue editor) Diana Vreeland would be compelled to live a life of lavish milieux and conspicuous, connected coolness. And for a while, after growing up in Germany and Morocco, Nicholas Vreeland did so, as a stylishly dressed bon vivant favored with insider introductions to Irving Penn and Richard Avedon — with whom he apprenticed as a teenager. The last thing one would imagine is that Vreeland would eventually become the abbot of a Tibetan monastery in a protected refugee zone of India. The transformation from "committed dandy" to devoted ascetic would be interesting enough, but along the way Vreeland blossomed into a first-rate photographer. He has shot all over South America and Asia, but his chronicling of his monastic life in Karnataka, in large-format black-and-white, is arguably his finest work.
Vreeland comes from the hyper-visual culture industry of New York, but his earliest affection for photography grew out of his loneliness while at an all-boys boarding school in Massachusetts. It was there that he shot a portrait of the headmaster, at his wife's request, and the resulting stark image ended up on T-shirts worn by the entire graduating class, including the headmaster himself. After traveling in India, Nepal, and Tibet (inspired by, of all things, Tintin in Tibet, but also while visiting his diplomat father in Sikkim), Vreeland became interested in Buddhism and shaved his head (much to the dismay of his famously soignée grandma). "It was a series of little steps that just went deeper and deeper, and continue," says Vreeland when asked about his detour onto a spiritual path. He became a disciple of Khyongla Rinpoche, attracted by his teachings about the importance of diminishing "self-cherishing" and negativity, and developing compassion for others. Three years later, he became a full-fledged monk and the only Westerner in a settlement of 20,000. Faced with the rigors of a devout life, he gave up photography for a while, until Martine Franck, the widow of Cartier-Bresson, visited his monastery and persuaded him to embrace it anew.
Reconciling Vreeland's background and current life, one might believe, finds a continual focus in his photography. Although I was curious about his spiritual path in general, I attempted to steer our conversation toward how his practice impacts his art. In fact, Vreeland insists that he is not an artist at all, just a busy monk who happens to find pleasure in taking pictures, and honor in photographing the Dalai Lama on several occasions. (It was the Dalai Lama who appointed him abbot.) Almost sheepishly, dutifully keeping pride at bay, he admits that it was only by selling his photographs to collectors that the planned expansion of the monastery (to house an enormous wave of refugee Tibetan monks) was made possible. Vreeland understands and employs the power of art without seeking any of its ego luster. When filmmakers Guido Santi and Tina Mascara asked to make him the subject of a documentary, he declined until his master told him it would benefit others.
Regarding his work for Penn, Vreeland says, "Very much like a spiritual master, it's not that you necessarily know what they're teaching you." His tasks were mundane, in the service of helping Penn execute his shots, but through the subliminal growth of master-disciple osmosis, Vreeland became himself a serious photographer before the age of 20. "I think there is a freedom when one is young that you can never quite retrieve. When you get older you develop more technical proficiency, but in terms of freedom of spirit, that diminishes. The energy that enabled me to travel around the world with my 5x7 camera, shooting in color, doing a series of portraits of lamas, afforded a wonderful experience that I'm not sure I could do today. Now I'm doing this very steady controlled work in this little studio that I've created."
Some 30 years as a practicing Buddhist have purged Vreeland of anything his erstwhile New York crowd might once have recognized as ambition. "I've been fortunate enough to be able to photograph within worlds that people haven't seen and I'm happy to share those, but I think it would be very pretentious to think that my pictures had any real importance in the long run." But something more valuable may have been gained instead, not least a power of calm and focused perception that only a fellow photographer might covet. "I don't think that photography helps me see, I think that the seeing comes first."
For a fuller and richer account of Nicholas Vreeland's story, we recommend you see the excellent documentary Monk With a Camera, directed by Guido Santi and Tina Mascara, currently on view at the Laemmle Royal Theater in Santa Monica through December 21. It opens in San Francisco on December 26, followed by other US cities.

Nicky's photography is meditation; while living at a monastery in India, he creates spare studies of his room, his desk — and the sale of those simple photos allows the monastery an unusual, financial transcendence. Because of Nicky's powerful connections, the monks can build otherwise unaffordable living quarters. Is photography an appropriate pursuit for a monk? Can a white man with so opulent a background honor a true Buddhist ethos in the West?
Monk With a Camera hints at answers, but imposes nothing. Like a good photograph, or a wise abbot, it only presents the evidence and allows us to arrive at truth.

From the Acclaimed Directors of
Chris & Don: A Love Story
Nicholas Vreeland walked away from a worldly life of privilege to become a Tibetan Buddhist monk in 1972. Grandson of legendary Vogue editor, Diana Vreeland, and trained by Irving Penn to become a photographer, Nicholas' life changed drastically upon meeting a Tibetan master, one of the teachers of the Dalai Lama. Soon thereafter, he gave up his glamorous life to live in a monastery in India, where he studied Buddhism for fourteen years. In an ironic twist of fate, Nicholas went back to photography to help his fellow monks rebuild their monastery.

Smyth on a mission for Cliftonville
The last time Aaron Smyth was on the pitch at Windsor Park he couldn't hold back the tears as Crusaders edged out Cliftonville in the Irish Cup final.
Smyth carelessly conceded a free-kick which led to Mark Dickson's goal and the right-back was so distraught at the finish he needed a shoulder to cry on.
It was a painful end to a season in which Smyth admits his performances were simply not up to standard.
Yesterday he was back at Windsor Park with a smile on his face to support an Umbro photoshoot ahead of the new Carling Premiership kicking off tomorrow.
That cup final defeat in May will eat away at Cliftonville players until they get their hands on a shiny piece of silverware and Smyth knows he needs to come to the Reds' party.
"After the year I won Player of the Year I don't feel I have improved much," he admitted.
"I don't feel I did myself justice last season and my performances will have to improve.
"I want to do better and perhaps pick up another Young Player of the Year award!
"The Irish Cup final defeat made me more determined to get back to that stage and win things.
"I was devastated after that final and hopefully we can go one better this year and win it. It's an achievement getting to the final but then you have to go that extra mile and lift the trophy which we didn't manage to do.
"We want to do well in the league as well, especially after last season when we fell away and had to fight back. We picked our performances up but it still wasn't good enough.
"Now with the injured players back like Liam Fleming, Fra Murphy and Conor Downey, hopefully we can go from strength to strength.
"They will be like new players and hopefully we will be harder to beat."
Cliftonville, who kick off the new season at Ballymena United tomorrow, will again be relying on the 2008-2009 Player of the Year Chris Scannell to hurt rivals.
"As everyone knows, Chris is one of the best strikers in the league so with him leading the line we will fear no-one," added Smyth.
"Hopefully he can maintain the form that won him the Player of the Year award.
"Everyone at Cliftonville is hoping he can score the same or more goals than last year."
It's been quiet on the transfer front at Solitude but Smyth is unconcerned.
"A few players were transfer listed but I think that was probably more to do with funds than anything else," he said.
"Eddie (Patterson) has always wanted to strengthen his squad and at the minute he is probably still trying to work wonders and bring players in. I'm just looking forward to starting the season with the players we have and seeing where it takes us."

symbolic division of series
Suppose that I have two series expansions (Taylor or asymptotic
expansions) for functions f(x) and g(x). This means I know the formulae
for the series coefficients. Is there any way to use MATHEMATICA
to obtain symbolically the formulae for the coefficients
of the analogous series expansion of the ratio f(x)/g(x) ?
I need a possibly large number of the coefficients of such an expansion,
expressed as functions of the coefficients for f(x) and g(x).

Indigenous species of minnows trapped from local creeks, found within the same watershed being fished, are forage that gamefish are accustomed to feeding on. Being wild, when approached by a predator, they react as nature programmed them to do, not in the manner of a hatchery-produced fathead or shiner. The nervous behavior of a wild creek chub gives the angler a heads-up while providing gamefish with a more natural predator/prey response.
Minnows can be trapped and netted. The first step, though, is finding a proper creek. Mud-banked, low-gradient creeks tend to harbor various subspecies of creek chubs and suckers, both of which are excellent bait. Minnows in the 3- to 5-inch range are right for bass and walleyes; smaller minnows of about 2 or so inches work well for stocked trout.
It's common for smaller streams to be carried under back roads by a galvanized steel culvert. The nozzle-like discharge that shoots through the culvert during high flows scours out a plunge hole directly downstream. Even on streams you can step across it's common to have culvert holes 15 to 20 feet across and four or five feet deep. Such spots are ideal for tossing in a minnow trap. Just be sure to gain the landowner's permission before doing so.
Standard torpedo-shaped minnow traps excel at collecting minnows. The 1-inch openings in such traps allow minnows up to 6 inches to enter. A variety of baits can be used to lure minnows into the trap; I've had great success using a cup or so of kibble-style dry dog food. Use dry dog food of a larger diameter so it doesn't flow through the trap's mesh.
In lakes, remaining living weeds tend to be found in the deeper zones of a lake that support such cover. In other words, if in your favorite lake during the summer you find weeds in water as shallow as 3 feet and as deep as 14, at this time it's more likely you'll find green weeds in the 10- to 14-foot range as opposed to shallower. Common weed varieties to find at this depth include coontail, milfoil and a range of pondweeds. The deep edge of the weedline often lies in conjunction with a drop-off into deeper water, especially during the fall. The more productive areas include bars, points and humps that have remaining green weeds and also a relatively sharp break leading to deeper water.
An angler has two basic options for working these kinds of areas. You can cast/pitch to the cover and work the bait back to the boat, or you can fish in a more vertical manner, hovering the bait. The best option depends on the layout of the structure, as well as how fish are relating to it.
When working a more gradually sloping weed edge/structure, it's often preferable to pitch back into the weed edges, where small turns and points create fish-holding pockets. Since minnows will quickly die from repeated casts/pitches, I prefer to use a leadhead jig to present them in this situation. Action will be imparted to the bait by the working of the jig. It doesn't seem to matter to the fish that the bait remains alive, so long as it was in good shape when initially hooked. Any minnows that died in the bucket will likely make poor bait for bass or walleyes.
On rivers, rigging and jigging have their applications. As water temperatures drop from the low 50s into the 40s, smallmouth bass and walleyes begin collecting in predictable locations. Deeper pools, ones exhibiting little current, provide the needed habitat at this time of year.
Many of the deeper pools that hold bass and walleyes at this time have steep breaking shorelines. One of my favorite fall tactics is to drift 20 to 30 feet off of the bank and pitch a jig-n-wild minnow downstream toward the shore, allowing it to bump down the drop-off as the boat catches up with it.

End Big Oil's Democracy Pollution, Say #NOKXL!
Start: May 17, 2014• 2:00 PM
Location:JC Nichols Fountain, Mill Creek Park•4700 JC Nichols Parkway, Kansas City, MO 64112
On Saturday, May 17, Kansas City will join communities around the country to ask President Obama and local officials to reject the Keystone XL pipeline, offshore drilling, and other dirty fuel projects that threaten our communities and destabilize our climate.
Here in Kansas City, we'll stand together to oppose not only the tar sands and other forms of extreme energy but we'll reject Big Oil's pollution of democracy by ritually cleansing Uncle Sam before marching through the Plaza to the Brush Creek Pedestrian Bridge to take our photo linking hands.
This National Day of Action is being jointly organized by the Tar Sands Coalition and Hands Across the Sand / Hands Across the Land. Hands, founded in 2010, grew into an international movement after the BP oil disaster in April of that year. People came together to join hands, forming symbolic barriers against spilled oil and the impact of other forms of extreme energy. The local event is organized by 350KC (350KC.org).
Join hands! Join us!

Jeffrey battles another Linfield crisis
Crusaders 2 Linfield 0: The Linfield supporters who chose to boycott this fixture didn't miss much that would have lifted their spirits.
The crowd of roughly 130 in the away section who did attend left Seaview asking why their team hadn't turned up either.
Blues fans staged a boycott in protest at the Crues' legal fight with the Department of Culture, Arts and Leisure over the redevelopment plans for Windsor Park.
That legal dispute is over and it's on the field matters that will now be keeping the supporters awake at night.
Linfield face Knockbreda at Windsor Park tonight in the League Cup but hearts will be beating a little faster when Glentoran come to the international venue for a Big Two league battle on Saturday.
The Blues have yet to win a league game this season and sit eight points adrift of champions Cliftonville.
But the writing has been on the wall for some time as Linfield have only won one of their last 11 league matches – at home to the Glens in early April.
Crusaders were resolute at the back and man of the match Jordan Owens was simply unplayable.
As the Shore Road men celebrated their first league win of the campaign, Linfield reflected on a display that lacked inspiration, invention, creativity and attacking endeavour.
Colin Coates and Davy Magowan were rock solid at the back while the Blues defence badly needs stabilised and strengthened.
Linfield's impressive form in Europe suggested they would be serious title contenders this season but unless they wake up from their slumber soon, the Reds will be drinking title-winning champagne by Christmas.
On this evidence, only Crusaders have the tools to put up a fight.
Two headed Owens goals in the 36th and 67th minutes sealed a deserved win against a side that lacked support from the stands and conviction on the pitch.
Owens, who also scored twice against Linfield in a 3-0 win at Seaview in March, was understandably pleased with his day's work.
"That was brilliant," beamed the 24-year-old. "The team played well all round. After our last two defeats we showed character and we had to as another loss would have left us nine points behind Cliftonville.
"We did the job and hopefully we can build on this. I've been doing more work in training including Monday nights and hopefully there's more goals to come. I got the goals but it was a superb team effort against a good Linfield side and we will take confidence from it.
"Linfield have won league championships so it's always good to score against them and hopefully I can get a few more against Coleraine on Friday.
"Last year I got 17 goals and the year before 22 so I'd be happy with 20 this season."
Delighted Crues boss Stephen Baxter said: "I'm pleased for all the players though Jordan was the standout performer.
"You work on making sure you are rock solid and don't give chances away and I thought our back four were sharp and tight.
"They have a lot of dangerous players who can score goals and it was important for us to restrict that. I was pleased that we were clinical."
Jeffrey gave his players the hairdryer treatment after the game but he feels a growing injury list is stopping them.
Mark Haughey, Andrew Waterworth, Philip Lowry, Peter Thompson, Jamie Mulgrew and Mark McAllister are now sidelined through illness or injury. When Mulgrew limped off in the 11th minute it was just the beginning of Linfield's tale of woe.
"This team is a work in progress but this is the first performance that I felt was below par," said Jeffrey.
"I'm not going to get stuck into the players as they are very young. I'm not making excuses but we are getting slaughtered with injuries and we haven't seen the benefit of new players we have brought in.
"We are three games into the season and we have a very young group. This is a learning curve and we have to build quickly but we will pick them up. But Cliftonville are mightily impressive and no-one at Linfield said Cliftonville weren't capable of winning back-to-back titles."
The fans' boycott landed a financial blow on Crusaders but at least Seaview officials were counting their blessings when a bet on a horse called 'Dark Crusader' reaped rich reward for them before kick-off.
That's just the slice of luck Jeffrey needs to stop the knives being sharpened around Windsor.

How to install windows in 4x4 posts?
Please see my post in the Building and Construction forum.
you could order the windows with the nailing flange. prep the opening with Grace/vector or equal install your window ( I hope its smaller then 42")
then you would install some sort of flat trim 1x on top of the nailing flange. I like to use a PVC composite trim like AZTEC they even have a pre-made window sill. install the sill and then the sides and top trim remembering to install a drip cap at the top of the window trim. important ! pay attention to the correct way to flash the window.
or you can install a 3/4 parting strip on the sides of the 4x4 install your units with out the flange into the opening. press the unit into caulking that you will apply to the parting strip. secure the unit with screws and then bend some alum trim coil to cover the outside 4x4 and rest.
Thanks Bulletbob, we will probably frame so the windows are 40" wide.
