I first tried this about a year ago. Then I didn't notice much difference at all and stopped taking it. But when I tried it again recently (from the original bottle), it worked very rapidly after only a single capsule. From having had a bad taste in my mouth due to various detox symptoms, I now have a normal/pleasant taste in my mouth. Mood is lighter and happier. Mentally I'm much sharper and more creative. Amazing how liver toxicity can hold you back if left untreated. So I guess the takeaway is YMMV - Your Mileage May Vary - because mine certainly did.
Excellent Product

Love this product to detox my liver. My acupuncturist had recommended this product due to the natural ingredients (such as milk thistle) and this is my first product from Thorne Research. Since using this, my liver seems to be detoxing and "calmer" according to my acupuncturist (when reading pulse). Its also great if your body needs that little bit extra to detox, be it after a heavy meal or a night out. This is definitely a staple in my supplements drawer.
Definitely Works!

New ATO Scam Attacks the Web
An unauthentic mail, which claims to have come from the ATO (Australian Tax Office) is entering the inboxes appearing to be offering a tax refund, as reported by iTnews on May 7, 2008.
This fake mail is known as "phishing mail" and has the subject line, "Notification- Please Read This!", and the mail is marked by a logo similar to ATO logo. It tells the user that they have got a delayed tax refund, and directs them to claim their money by filling the tax form given in the link with the mail.
As they click on the link, they are taken to a Website, which appears like the official ATO site, and are asked to divulge private data including credit card details and address. But as this is not an authentic mail from ATO, so by clicking on the link will allow the...

A day of pedaling and people-watching
This is the second of a series of blogs by espnW deputy editor and native Iowan Heather Burns, who is doing the Des Moines Register's Annual Great Bike Ride Across Iowa.
Sometimes I forget how much I love RAGBRAI. And then we have a day like Sunday.
We woke up to thunder and lightning at 5 a.m. and quickly packed up our gear and got it on the trucks. (Our bike club takes it from town to town.) The great thing? It never rained. The storm went north and south of us -- on either side -- but dodged the ride. What luck!
We rode to the middle of Council Bluffs and found an oatmeal buffet for breakfast. A big bubbling trough of oatmeal was at the front of the buffet line and toppings included blueberries, raspberries, almonds, walnuts, honey and syrup. Combined with a cup of coffee, it was perfect fuel.
After breakfast it was into the masses for the 55-mile day. Two Des Moines Register feature writers -- Don Kaul and John Karras -- started RAGBRAI in 1973. Both avid cyclists, they decided to ride their bikes across the state and invited the masses to join them. About 300 riders went on the first RAGBRAI and 114 finished the whole ride. These days, the number of riders on a single day is sometimes as many as 20,000. And the riders come in all shapes, sizes and ages. Sunday I saw a 6-year-old boy riding with his father and an 86-year-old woman named Lucy. The sign on the back of her bike said "86 And Riding For Kicks."
One of the fun things about the ride is all the different teams. Team Flamingo has pink feathers coming out of its helmets. Team Bumble Bee wears yellow-and-black striped jerseys and has been known to buzz loudly as it passes you. Team Tutu wears frilly pink skirts over its bike shorts, but I did not see them Sunday. One year, there was a team Mickey Mouse, and the riders had ears coming out of their helmets, wore Mickey's red pants and Minnie's polka-dotted skirt and even had the big white gloves on their hands.
RAGBRAI also features lots of local talent. In one town Sunday there was a group tap dancing. In another, four women were singing church hymns. The best entertainment? People-watching. As my dad would say, it takes all kinds. And many kinds are here this week, riding their bikes across Iowa and amusing me.
Sunday's ride was full of the usual fun. It was also short, not too hot and included a tail wind. We made it to our campsite in Harlan before noon.
That won't happen Monday -- we have 83 miles to Perry. It is the longest day of the week. But with the sights and sounds of the ride, it will likely pass quickly.

B7557-001: Social Entrepreneurship for the 21st Century
EMBA Saturday Electives , Menu G Half-Term (2nd Half: Nov 2-Dec 14) - 06:00AM to 07:00AM
Instructor: Georgia Levenson Keohane
In less than a generation, we have witnessed a tectonic shift in the way people think about and work toward social change. The groundswell of new activism — social entrepreneurship — is manifest across society as innovative change makers test new solutions to entrenched social, economic, and environmental problems. This course is designed for students who are interested in understanding and participating in social entrepreneurship, whether they pursue careers (or avocations) in the nonprofit, private or public sectors. The course gives an overview of the field, with in depth examples and case studies of innovative change makers and organizations in the nonprofit, private and public sectors that illuminate the traits and tools of the new activism: a heightened emphasis on measurement and evaluation; an embrace of competition in a number of forms, including the design and implementation of market based instruments like prizes and challenges; the development of 'laboratories' to foster social innovations which can then be brought to scale; experiments with technology and the use of open and crowd source solutions to social change; and a new thinking about asset management and investment, the nature of social value and returns, and the sources of capital available to address chronic social problems. The course also explores the opportunities and tensions inherent in cross-sector work: the definition of public goods, and the respective roles that philanthropy, government and commercial actors play in providing them. Classes will combine lectures, class discussions, and presentations by some of today's most innovative social entrepreneurs.
The course is divided into three sections:
1. Social Entrepreneurship in the Nonprofit Sector examines the emergence of a new kind of service provider, a new breed of funder – the so-called venture philanthropy – and the business models each employ to advance social change;
2. Social Impact in the Private Sector explores the infusion of social sector values into profit-making activities from the enterprise and investor perspectives, including the emerging field of impact investing and the growing number of firms that seek to create societal or environmental benefit – "shared" or "blended" value – through commercial business; and
3. Social Innovation in the Public Sector includes case studies of entrepreneurship within government, and the use of various policy tools to identify and scale proven solutions to entrenched problems, foster innovation, and enlist the energy and resources of private (nonprofit and commercial) actors to common purpose.

Macau mogul hopes dinosaurs trump volcanoes in new casino resort
By Farah Master
MACAU (Reuters) - Macau tycoon David Chow is ripping up the fake volcano and Roman amphitheatre that were the show pieces of a failed theme park he built in the Chinese gaming enclave seven years ago.
He is replacing them with something a little less kitsch and more in keeping with the neighborhood: a casino resort boasting an opera house and dinosaur museum that he hopes will return him to the spotlight of the world's largest gambling hub.
The second-generation casino operator, whose four decades of Macau experience rival former kingpin Stanley Ho, is going up against the industry's modern titans, including Sheldon Adelson's Las Vegas Sands Corp and Steve Wynn's Wynn Resorts Ltd who have built massive casino, hotel and shopping complexes that rake in billions of dollars each year.
"It is my time to come now," said Chow, 62, whose Macau Legend Development Ltd listed on the Hong Kong stock exchange in July, raising $283 million, less than half of what was initially planned.
Chow, a former Macau politician, has kept a low profile since the failure of the theme park, which he built with Ho. In his absence, Macau has been transformed with sleek glass towers, Michelin dining and luxury brand flagship stores.
Only a decade ago, the former Portuguese colony was a gangster's paradise where rivals regularly settled disputes with guns. China has sought to turn it into a safe, family-friendly resort city. It granted gaming concessions to the Las Vegas elite such as Sands, who opened glitzy casinos that dwarf the older ones surrounding Chow's property.
With the IPO proceeds funding his upcoming casino resort, Chow hopes to remind Las Vegas rivals that he is still a force to be reckoned with.
For investors burned by Chow's last big dream, grand plans may sound all too familiar. Merrill Lynch and U.S. hedge funds Och Ziff and TPG-Axon were among backers who plowed $400 million into the theme park in 2006, recouping only around a third of their investment three years later. Continued...

I sure could be wrong but, it looks like it could possibly be cast rather than machined.
If it's a MIM casting (Metal Injection Molded) I would stay away from it.
You're gonna hate me when you see the price but, I would go with the combo comp and flash hider by PRIMARY WEAPONS.
They somehow managed to make it simultaneously serve both functions very well. Really good design/engineering.
But, like everything else these days you're sure paying for it.

"e were in China and were not supposed to be there," said Terry Madison, president of Open Doors ministry, based in Santa Ana, Calif.
Madison shared his adventures as a smuggler of Bibles into China when he spoke recently at Grace Mennonite Church near Berlin.
Responding to the request of leaders of the house church movement in China, 20 men from around the world launched Project Pearl -- the transporting of 1 million Bibles to the south shore of Chine in a single night by tugboat and barge.
An order for 1 million Bibles was placed with Thomas Nelson Publishers on Nashville, Tenn., to be printed in Chinese Union Script.
A barge was built in the Philippines with the capability to be flooded internally, allowing it to float lower in the water so the Bibles could be more easily unloaded and towed to shore.
In the planning stage, all the men on the crew were required to be secretive about project details, telling no one except their wives.
There was a lot of faith involved in the venture, Madison said.
The small 4x4x34-inch Bibles were packaged in 50-pound boxes, then bound together into 1-ton waterproof packages like enormous slices of bread.
Some engineers thought the slices would float; others said they wouldn't.
The 128-ton tug Gabriella, towing the 100-ton barge carrying 232 tons of Bibles, sailed north from Hong Kong through the East China Sea -- hundreds of nautical miles -- without knowing if the packages of Bibles would float.
Madison, who served as photography, journalist and cook aboard the tug, was accidentally thrown overboard by a forceful snap of a rope. Madison still remembers seeing "the deck flying by" while being flung into the water.
"I have much to praise the Lord for -- not only one million Bibles to China, but also my life," he said.
"When we tried to get that first 1-ton package out of the barge, nothing moved," Madison said. "Nothing moved."
Finally, grudgingly, the first chunk splashed into the sea.
Would it float or would it sink?
The 1-ton loaf floated with 6 inches above the water's surface.
Just past midnight, after three hours of unloading, the Chinese Christian leaders urged the smugglers leave to prevent discovery by the authorities.
After the crew pushed away from China's shore and were in international water, they could no longer contain themselves.
"We had a praise and praise and praise meeting," Madison said.
From reports received later, the group learned that water-borne Bibles were retrieved with fishing nets by nearby believers. For awhile thereafter, housetops were white with Bibles drying in the sun.
Some of the Project Pear Bibles were confiscated, some burned and some pushed into the sea after being discovered by authorities, but only a few thousand copies were lost.
In the 18 years since Project Pearl in 1981, millions of Bibles have been poured into China by Open Doors and other groups.
According to Open Doors, 27 million believers in China are still without a Bible.
The group believes that there are 15,000 to 20,000 new believers every day in China.
"Because the church is growing so rapidly we cannot catch up," Madison said.

MP loses attempt to halt criminal libel case
Criminal libel proceedings against Labour MP José Herrera will go ahead after a court threw out his request to declare the case null.
In February 2008, the former chairman of the Malta Maritime Authority, Marc Bonello had initiated a civil libel suit and criminal libel proceedings against Dr Herrera over comments made during a political activity when he said his architectural firm had won two contracts to build the Gozo ferry terminals in Ċirkewwa and Mġarr and that this was a conflict of interest due to the position Dr Bonello occupied.
Dr Herrera filed a preliminary plea in the criminal libel proceedings calling on the court to declare the case null. He argued that Dr Bonello's complaint should not have resulted in the police taking action against him.
However, Magistrate Silvio Meli pointed out the Press Act allowed anyone who felt libelled to take "bi-polar" action and initiate concurrent civil and criminal libel proceedings.
Once the criminal libel case started, through a formal complaint to the police, it was then up to the police to exercise their social duty and see the case through. The court turned down Dr Herrera's request and ordered the continuation of the case.

Suspension options
I pretty sure I need new shocks for my V. I have less than 60k so I'm thinking my lowering springs are the culprit. So should I replace the nivomats or go with a coil over , getting rid of the lowered look is a non negotiable but don't want to replace shocks every 30k

Press Release
Another top quality, album-length release, the twenty-first 12" in our highy-acclaimed Split Series features two artists utilising layered rhythms and vocals in very different ways, each arriving at a distinctive and dynamic group energy.
LA-based Foot Village are the quartet of Grace Lee, Brian Miller, Dan Rowan, and Josh Taylor. Active since 2007, and featuring members of Gang Wizard, Friends Forever and the infamous International Voice of Reason, they've described themselves as the 'loudest Acoustic Rock Band Ever'. Heavily concept-based, their foundation-myth depicts Foot Village being the first nation built after the foreseeable apocalypse, erecting civilization anew with drums and voices alone - no guitars, no electronics, no amplification (other than via megaphone). Key proponents of the Los Angeles DIY scene centred around The Smell, their brilliant live performances (with drums set up on the floor in the midst of the audience) are compelling spectacles of pure energy exchange. Their unplugged post-hardcore assault is anchored in the now of ecstatic energy, propelled by an inherent momentum and sudden dramatic shifts.
A single 16-minute-long piece, the band describe 'Bebongs' as being "about being young and listening to records in the middle of the night with your friends; the type of experience that creates ineffable bonds of friendship while on psychic journeys." These types of experience were vital to all the group's members, translating 'into the feeling we get when playing our drums, deep and lost in the sound. With 'Bebongs' we wanted to create an epic journey through, as the lyrics note, "the door that can never be seen". A song with many unexpected movements and lyrics that swing from silly and fun to the deadly serious, 'Bebongs' is an explosive song embracing infinite possibilities and transcending the band's simple set up of just drums, voices, and one megaphone. Beginning with a humble swirl of sounds laying out the pallet, the tools for such travel, it opens in a tumbling, freeform clatter before cohering into a beat and gear-shifting through different stages. By the end these sounds have come together in a literal opera, "a place we challenged ourselves to go beyond anywhere any Foot Village song has taken us."
Occupying the other side, Super Khoumeissa is a group of six musicians and four dancers from Gao, on the banks of the Niger River in the North of Mali, 320 km east of Timbuktu. Whilst the group has been active (with changing personnel) since at least 1990, this is their first official release. Super Khoumeissa are the premier representatives of the most widespread musical style in Northern Mali Takamba, which denotes both a musical structure and a dance. The group play traditional three-stringed instruments known as the Tehardent or Ngoni which are amplified to both augment and distort the sound and the traditional gourd percussion instrument known as the Calabasse. This combination produces a dynamic sound that can instantly captivate a crowd. With Takamba bands frequently found playing at weddings and other celebrations, the dance includes graceful and subtle movements performed both seated and standing where the shoulders and arms sway with the flow of the songs.
The instrumentation on these releases is three Calabasse, two Tehardent [aka Ngoni] and one vocalist. The presence of the three calabasses give this instrument the dominant sound and reinforce the four dancers who are an integral part of the group's live performance. The repetition and variation of the ngoni and the calabasse are layered to produce complex interactions and harmonics. The tunes and rhythmic structures of their music derive from traditional melodies whose lyrics recount tales of the heroic past, of love and of the life and history of the Sahara. This folk-based music is hugely popular in the North of Mali and its rhythms have transferred into much of their contemporary music - audible in the music of such artists as Tinariwen, Khaira Arby, Tartit, and Tamikrest. Takamba is also one of the only musical styles to have crossed the cultural borders between the nomadic and sedentary people of the Sahara and the Sahel. Super Khoumeissa present a musical repertoire of songs of the Touareg and Songhoi in their dynamic and very graceful performances. Sung in the Sonhrai language, all three tracks here are rooted in traditional songs which form the basis of each particular group of musician's interpretations.
The members of the group on this recording are: Zerena Maiga (vocal), Yacouba Toure (ngoni), Abourhamane Idrissa (ngoni), Salif Maiga (calabasse), Mahamar Almou (calabasse), Boubacar Izia (calabasse). Also an integral part of the group but not heard on the recordings are dancers Abdoulaye Toure, Salimata Haidara, Tazouden Samake, and Zeinabou Maiga. Super Khoumeissa have found fans in Animal Collective, who invited the band to play at their ATP Festival in May this year.

Has anyone ever used the rubber/urethane training guns? I see they sell them a couple of places and just wondered if anyone else is as big of a nerd as I am.
I found one on ebay for $25 and it appears to be a replica of the gun family I am looking to purchase. The $25 doesn't really bother me as I will be dropping much much more on a gun, ammo, holsters, safes and more.

It is the slightly larger non compact model but that is fine. I am just looking to practice drawing and holstering during my long permit wait (another 3.5-5.5 months) as well as to get a feel for this style gun before I go to try them out and purchase one. I know they are usually meant for disarming scenarios but why the heck not!

"Namaste! I am Abhushan and I am from Nepal."
"Really? Have you ever climbed Mt. Everest?" "Do you live in the mountains?" "Do you pet Yetis back in Nepal?"
"Yes, I am from Nepal." "No I haven't climbed Mt. Everest because it is at a whopping altitude of 8850 meters." "I live in a big sprawling city with a population of almost 1 million people." "I definitely do not have a pet Yeti. I have a little yipper named "Sheru" who likes to stun and catch birds."
A year back, these were typical questions that people in the U.S. would fire back at me when I introduced myself and my country to them. Whether it was a normal conversation or an email, such questions almost became inevitable. It was annoying at first, seeing people who have no idea about my country and my culture talk to me so stereotypically. Sometimes, out of rage, I wondered how these people who have no idea about geography are ruling the world right now!
But, after mingling with the American community for a year, I slowly understood why that happened. I simply put myself in their shoes and then understood that I would not have known about a small country sandwiched somewhere in the heart of South Asia, given the same kind of upbringing and environment. At the same time, this thought also inspired and constantly pushed me to share my Nepali culture and tradition with the Americans.
Wooster – the college where I am from – is a small and tight-knit community with diversity in the population. People are well-acquainted with more typical South Asian cultures like India and Pakistan here, given the long history of having students from these regions. But sadly, Nepal still remains a mystery.
There is hope – the Nepali community has successfully grown to 5 this year. Yay! But still, wearing a t-shirt that says "I love Nepal" or talking to people in my "weird" accent simply wasn't going to draw the interests of Americans into my Nepali culture. Therefore, I tried to share my culture in a more fun way.
The picture to your right shows an image of a celebration of a Nepali festival in Wooster. And, I guarantee you that there was no stampede after this photo was taken. 🙂
The festival we were celebrating is called Dashain. It is pretty much a mega-festival – like Christmas for Christians. My classmates from Nepal and I had planned the event simply out of homesickness, and it started with just two or three of us preparing a Nepali dish and conducting the proper rituals.
But when people saw us celebrate and don the red paint – called "tika" – on our foreheads, they too had the urge to join in. And, in no time the kitchen was flooded with new faces from California, Alaska, Pakistan, Thailand, Ethiopia and South Korea. The picture speaks for itself and the kind of experience that we all had that day.
This taught me something. Until you make an effort from your side to share your culture with others, nobody is going to come looking for that guy who just arrived from Nepal or Guam. Similarly, it is equally your duty and responsibility to make people around you aware of your culture if you are the one who complains that they lack that awareness. Once you do that, I am sure people will not just like your culture; they will be envious of it.
The next event that I used to share my culture with the American community was the International Education Week organized in our college.
During the week-long event, we not only dressed ourselves in the best Nepali dress but also sang and danced to the tunes of Nepali and popular Bollywood numbers like "Jai Ho" from Slumdog Millionaire.
I carry some of the best memories of my first year from these events, which I will cherish forever in my life. Similarly, I am sure that the American audience at Wooster too relished the gala.
Thanks to these events, the Nepalese tradition, here in Wooster, continues. People now know what Nepal is or what its 'unique' national flag is shaped like. Some even know how to cook Nepali delicacies. They know that "Namaste!" translates to "I greet the God in you." They know about most popular places to go hiking in Nepal, Nepali songs and tunes, the dress, and most importantly- and to some extent- they know what it's like to be a Nepali.
Imagine that you are eating a medium-size pizza all by yourself. And, now imagine that you are eating that same pizza with your best friends. Do you understand the difference? I am sure you do. Sharing your culture in the U.S. is similar. The only difference is that the other people won't be your best friends right away. You will have to put in the effort to make them friends. But it is worth it – sharing your culture not just serves for your benefit or others; it is mutually enriching.
To put it straight: SHARING is simply CARING!

So I have have been running through the help docs for the sdk, and I cannot seem to find any sort of parent function for python. I have a feeling it is GeListNode.InsertUnder(), but I cannot seem to get it to work for the life of me. Mostly because I am having a hard time understanding the help docs and their descriptions. Here is my simple script so far. (Trying to group objects).
import c4d
def groupIt(doc, op):
xName = c4d.BaseList2D.GetName(x) #gather obj name
drive = c4d.BaseObject(c4d.Onull) #create drive null
doc.InsertObject(drive) #insert drive null
drive[c4d.ID_BASELIST_NAME] = xName + "_DRIVE" #name drive null
c4d.GeListNode.InsertUnder(drive(x)) #parent object under drive null
if __name__=='__main__':
doc = c4d.documents.GetActiveDocument()
selected = doc.GetActiveObjects(0)
for x in selected:
groupIt(doc, x)
Any assistance or push in the right direction would be great.

LUCAS, Ky. -- Fishing was tough, but not as tough as some had feared, following flooding rains and then a 2 ½-hour delay to the start of Day One because of fog.
"It was different water out there today," Kentucky's Mike Dennie said.
Just four anglers managed limits in the opening round of the B.A.S.S. Federation Nation Southern Divisional presented by Yamaha and Skeeter on Barren River Lake, a 10,000-acre impoundment overflowing its banks. Still, 84 anglers from seven states managed to bring in 136 fish, including several 5-pound-plus largemouths.
Led by Tennessee with 64-7, five teams are within 8 pounds of the top spot. South Carolina has 60-5, Kentucky 58-4, North Carolina 57-9, and Alabama 57-0.
Florida follows with 44-13, while Georgia has 25-14, with 6 pounds of that coming on Mike Marshall's big bass for Day One.
Tournament Manager Jon Stewart said that the Monday night and Tuesday morning rains really dampened hopes for those who were finding fish in brush at the backs of coves.
"Guys were catching lots of fish and there was talk of 20-pound bags," he said.
"If the water hadn't come up like this, I'd bet that 80 percent would have had limits," said Anthony Roy, Kentucky B.A.S.S. Federation Nation president. "And if the water will stay stable now and the temperatures warm, the bite will be better tomorrow."
Still, Tennessee fisherman Mark Pierce did manage a 19-3 limit, followed by South Carolina's Josh Warren with 17-6.
"The bite today was definitely tougher (than in practice)," Pierce said. "The fish are spread out and scattered."
Neither Pierce nor Warren would reveal how they caught their fish, but the South Carolina angler told the crowd, "Kentucky, you have a great fishery!"
Alabama's Jamie Horton and Kentucky's Gerald Weber also boasted limits, while North Carolina's Stephen Dyer brought in four quality bass that weighed 12-9.
With mild weather and light winds predicted for Day Two, even more quality fish should be brought in on this Barren River fishery that consistently ranks as one of Kentucky's best in terms of fish per acre.
Friday, meanwhile, could see the water rise once again, as more rain is forecast.
In the aftermath of the first flooding, B.A.S.S. was forced to hastily move its weigh-in site uphill Wednesday morning, as competitors were heading out to look for fish along the flooded shorelines.
"We got some great, great help from the Corps (of Engineers) to do that," Stewart said.
LUCAS, Ky. -- Fishing was tough, but not as tough as some had feared, following flooding rains and then a 2 ½-hour delay to the start of Day One because of fog.

Jay-Z Portrayed Through Open Source Typographic Illustration
Currently based in Hong Kong, Evan Roth is an American artist with a focus in technology, tools of empowerment, open source, and popular culture. He is also the co-founder of Graffiti Research Lab and F.A.T. (Free Art & Technology), a R&D lab for the public domain.
Over the last five years, he has been pairing typefaces with music to create stunning portraits through a process he refers to as typographic illustration. After selecting a font, he layers thousands of letters on top of one another until a face emerges.
Evan was recently commissioned to make a video for a new Jay-Z song for RED & the Global Fund to Fight AIDS in Africa. The song, produced by Kanye West and featuring Santogold, provides the background beats while the letters "Brooklyn" fall into place, creating an image of Jay-Z himself. Not surprisingly, the video is open source.

|Rod Thorn, the man who drafted Michael Jordan, stole Jason Kidd from the Phoenix Suns, rid the Sixers of Willie Green and signed Johan Petro to a 3 year/$10M deal less than a year ago. Until further notice, he's the guy with his finger on the button for the Sixers. How confident are you in the direction he's taking this team?
|How many European players have the Sixers drafted? What are the Sixers doing to scout international players? Rich takes an in-depth look at those two important questions and more for us to help shed some light on the upcoming draft.
|Through Iguodala's injuries, Jrue's ups and downs, Hawes' futility and Turner's disappointments, the Sixers had one constant this season to rely on. Mr. Philly Max himself, Elton Brand. The big man is up in our prediction vs. performance series today.
|I talked a bit a few weeks back about what I look for in particular players when the draft rolls around (an uncanny skill or a tremendous physical advantage). Today I'd like to touch on what I want the Sixers to get out of this draft, and why.
|The man of the hour is non other than the exit-interview skipping, rumor mill grist, scourge of Philly.com (AKA the best player on the Sixers), Andre Iguodala. Let's take a look at how his on-court performance measured up to my preseason predcitions.
|Statman returns with a heavy heart to breakdown Andre Iguodala's performance in 2010-2011 versus every other starting small forward in the league. Be sure to check out his work on Jrue's numbers from last week. Check out the numbers and discuss. Iguodala's prediction vs. performance will land tomorrow.
Latest comment: from emtmessove the Chilli's reff....
|Since it seems like everyone who's in favor of trading Andre Iguodala for Monta Ellis views Ellis' superduper scoring ability as more valuable than Iguodala's all-around game, I thought I'd do a little math exercise to see exactly how much Monta's 24PPG would've helped the Sixers this past season.
Latest comment: from GoSixersBoth parts of your rationale make no sense to me, but ok...
|This past week, the Sixers have been a hot topic not only in Philadelphia, which is a stranger circumstance than an outsider would think. They have made news worthy of coverage from outlets such as ESPN, SI.com, CBS Sports, and many other places with a national audience. Too bad I'm more worried than ever about this team, much more than a month ago.
|Not Doug Collins, not Evan Turner, not Andre Iguodala, not the pending sale, not Spencer Hawes. Not any of those people/things. If you want to hang your hat on something, if you want something to look forward to, some possible light at the end of the tunnel for our Philadelphia 76ers, only two words fit right now: Jrue Holiday. He's up today in our P vs. P series
|Statman returns with an update to his mid-season point guard rankings column. The focus here is how Jrue Holiday measures up against the other starting point guards in the league, now we have a full season's worth of data to analyze. Check it out.
|According to a report from The Deal Pipeline, Joshua Harris (pictured at right) is, in fact, leading a group of investors to buy the Sixers. The talks are ongoing but an announcement is expected within the next two to three weeks. A few more details to follow:
|In what can only be described as shocking news, ESPN is reporting the Sixers are not only up for sale, but a deal may be "imminent," to a leveraged buyout specialist.
|Currently, this is a second-hand rumor coming from Robert Flores (I'm sure Ric Bucher is happy that his "scoop" is being stolen by an ESPN anchorman, but that's beside the point.) The actual tweet is as follows: "ESPN.com's Ric Bucher reporting #Warriors #76ers discussing Monta Ellis for Andre Iguodala trade. #NBA." Thoughts to follow. Here's the actual rumor.

HUDSON — Pasco coaches were silent about their secret weapon's health.
They cloaked him in a different jersey during warmups, and they covered his trademark dreadlocks in a skull cap.
But when the game started, the Pirates couldn't conceal Janarion Grant any longer.
The senior athlete returned from a broken hand by scoring five touchdowns four different ways — including a run coach Tom McHugh called the best he's ever seen — to lead Pasco to a 54-20 win over Fivay. The victory puts the Pirates (7-0, 5-0) in sole possession of first place in Class 5A, District 6.
"I had to come out here and show everybody that I haven't lost anything," Grant said.
He wasted no time doing it against Fivay (5-2, 4-1). Grant, last year's North Suncoast co-player of the year, missed the Pirates' first six games with injuries but was cleared to play Monday. He returned the opening kickoff 91 yards before the score was nullified because of a penalty. Grant had to settle for a 12-yard dance into the end zone six plays later.
"Sometimes when kids get hurt, they come back and they're a little tentative," McHugh said. "Not that one."
Fivay did, too. The Falcons answered with a 74-yard pass from Tyler Degen to Andrew Meyer. They scored on their next play, too — a 35-yard pass from Degen to Kevin Faulkner — to go up 13-7 and give Pasco its first deficit of the season.
But Grant and the Pirates couldn't be stopped. Grant took a screen pass, cut right, then left, then right again and broke at least six tackles during his 71-yard sprint past the goal line.
"I just seen green grass, and I just kept moving," said Grant, who finished with 76 rushing yards, 88 passing yards and 86 receiving yards.
Midway through the second quarter, Grant lined up at quarterback and hit Malik Johns, who broke a screen pass for a 69-yard touchdown. And in the third quarter, Grant picked off a Fivay pass and ran 53 yards down the right sideline for his fourth score of the game. Lane Stancil added an interception and a fumble recovery for a Pasco defense that forced four turnovers but allowed a season-high 360 yards.
"You can't turn the ball over," Falcons coach Chris Taylor said.
Especially when Grant had one more eye-popping play left.
Late in the third, Grant started running up the middle and braced himself with his hand. He did it again to regain his balance, then spun off of one opponent.
"That was an oh-my-God play," McHugh said.
Grant kept going. He broke at least one more tackle and darted left to finish off a 38-yard TD run that capped Pasco's 47-0 run.
"I thought he was down two or three times, but he ended up in the end zone," said RB David Emmanuel, who had two touchdown runs. "That's Janarion."
When pressed after the buzzer about his monumental return, Grant smiled.
"I probably still have a couple things up my sleeve," the Division-I athlete said.

|RE: expectation vs requirements for locale facets
|Mon, 20 Aug 2007 11:20:32 GMT
>Mark Brown wrote: > >In my experience, the time_get facet isn't always able to >reliably parse international times and cannot parse every time >string produced by the time_put facet. Yes, I see two different problems here. You can generate output with time_put<>::put for which there is no matching time_get<> method for parsing that data. What I mean is that you can easily format "%S %p" onto the stream, but there is no method in the time_get<> facet for reading that formatted data back. The stdcxx implemention provides an extension that allows you to do this, but it's an extension. The other problem is the one that I'm more concerned about. >I don't remember ever >having problems with spaces though. Yeah, that is the problem. It is my interpretation that this is a requirement, but I'm not sure that anyone agrees with me on this. I don't really see the point in defining a system for input/output of times and dates if you can't read in the values that you write out. >On Linux at least, stdcxx >has no problems skipping leading space in time strings. That is inconsistent with what I'm seeing. [see partial failure lists below] >Which >locale and what operating system does it not do so for you? > Well, so far I've only tried linux/gcc and win32/vc8 both with their native Standard C++ Library implementations and with the stdcxx implementations. I get failures in each of them with various locales. I attached my testcase to another post in this thread [http://tinyurl.com/2qp7py]. Here is a spew including a few failing locales for each configuration... win32/vc8/stdcxx string= 7.06.1908 locale=Croatian string= 7.06.1908 locale=Czech string= 7/06/1908 locale=Dutch_Belgium string= 7.06.1908 locale=Estonian string= 7.06.1908 locale=Finnish string= 7/06/1908 locale=Greek string= 7.06.1908 locale=Icelandic string= 7. 06. 1908 locale=Slovak string= 7.06.1908 locale=Slovenian string=06/ 7/1908 locale=Swahili string= 7-06-1908 locale=Dutch_Netherlands string= 7/06/1908 locale=English_Australia string=06/ 7/1908 locale=English_Zimbabwe string= 7/06/1908 locale=French_Belgium string= 7/06/1908 locale=Portuguese_Brazil string= 7.06.1908 locale=Swedish_Finland string=03:02:01 locale=Afrikaans win32/vc8/dinkum string=1908/06/07 locale=Afrikaans string=1908-06-07 locale=Albanian string=07.06.1908 locale=Belarusian string=07.6.1908 π. locale=Bulgarian string=7.6.1908 locale=Croatian string=7.6.1908 locale=Czech string=07-06-1908 locale=Danish string=7.06.1908 locale=Estonian string=7.6.1908 locale=Finnish string=1908. 06. 07. locale=Hungarian string=7.6.1908 locale=Icelandic string=1908.06.07. locale=Latvian string=1908.06.07 locale=Lithuanian string=07.06.1908 locale=Norwegian string=1908-06-07 locale=Polish string=07.06.1908 locale=Romanian string=07.06.1908 locale=Russian string=7. 6. 1908 locale=Slovak string=7.6.1908 locale=Slovenian string=1908-06-07 locale=Swedish string=07.06.1908 locale=Tatar string=07.06.1908 locale=Turkish string=07.06.1908 locale=Ukrainian string=7-6-1908 locale=Dutch_Netherlands string=1908-06-07 locale=French_Canada string=07.06.1908 locale=French_Switzerland string=07.06.1908 locale=German_Austria string=07.06.1908 locale=German_Germany string=07.06.1908 locale=German_Liechtenstein string=07.06.1908 locale=German_Luxembourg string=07.06.1908 locale=German_Switzerland string=07.06.1908 locale=Italian_Switzerland string=07-06-1908 locale=Portuguese_Portugal string=07-06-1908 locale=Spanish_Chile string=7.6.1908 locale=Swedish_Finland string=3.02.01 locale=Italian_Italy linux/gcc3463/stdcxx string=07/06/08 locale=thai string= 7.06.1908 locale=bg_BG string=07/06/08 locale=lo_LA string=07/06/08 locale=th_TH string= 3:02:01 locale=aa_DJ string= 3:02:01 locale=aa_ER string= 3:02:01 locale=aa_ET string= 3:02:01 locale=am_ET string= 3,02,01 locale=bg_BG string= 3:02:01 locale=om_ET string= 3:02:01 locale=om_KE string= 3:02:01 locale=so_DJ string= 3:02:01 locale=so_ET string= 3:02:01 locale=so_KE string= 3:02:01 locale=so_SO string= 3:02:01 locale=ti_ER string= 3:02:01 locale=ti_ET linux/gcc3463/gnustdlib string= 3:02:01 locale=aa_DJ string= 3:02:01 locale=aa_ER string= 3:02:01 locale=aa_ET string= 3:02:01 locale=am_ET string= 3,02,01 locale=bg_BG string= 3:02:01 locale=om_ET string= 3:02:01 locale=om_KE string= 3:02:01 locale=so_DJ string= 3:02:01 locale=so_ET string= 3:02:01 locale=so_KE string= 3:02:01 locale=so_SO string= 3:02:01 locale=ti_ER string= 3:02:01 locale=ti_ET string=03:02:01 AM locale=tl_PH >-- Mark >
