It's not often you hear raucous laughter in a talk titled USA and Canada: The Unwinding Relationship? But the speaker, Austan Goolsbee, knows how to work a crowd: this former member of President Barack Obama's team is Daily Show-approved.
Mr. Goolsbee is the former chairman of the President's Council of Economic Advisers. Speaking to a Toronto audience Monday at the Economic Club of Canada, Mr. Goolsbee said a recession such as that which hit the United States takes a long time to correct, and emphasized that America has a long road to recovery. He said that America needs to focus on business and exports in order to turn its economy around.
He also expressed frustration at politics in Washington during the recent debt ceiling crisis and the failure of the supercommittee on deficit reduction, saying "the culture of Washington, D.C., has become utterly dysfunctional and they can get virtually nothing done."
Mr. Goolsbee leavened his serious subject matter with stories "from the Goolsbie family," punctuated with sound effects and provoking belly laughs from the audience. His experience working with TV showed.
At one point he told the crowd how he gave a wrapped, dead Asian carp to departing chief of staff Rahm Emanuel, who is passionate about fighting the invasive species. While Mr. Emanuel seemed to hate the joke, Mr. Goolsbie said he later heard Mr. Emanuel commenting it was one of the most thoughtful gifts he'd ever received.
Putting his finger on one of the sensitive areas in U.S.-Canadian relations, moderator Frank McKenna asked about the Keystone XL pipeline project, and whether Canadians weren't "getting kind of screwed on the pricing for quite some time."
Mr. Goolsbee conceded he didn't have any insight on whether Canadians were losing money transporting oil from the Alberta oil sands to the U.S. But he said that those who oppose the pipeline on environmental grounds are being "naive, to think that the tar sands would not be developed if they didn't build that pipeline."
Mr. Goolsbee supported Mr. Obama in his 2004 Senate race and working as his senior economic adviser during his 2008 bid for President, and was subsequently named chair of the CEA. In June of this year he announced his plans to return to University of Chicago to teach.

You can carve a either a chicken or a turkey about the same way.
1. Insert knife between leg and body and cut through the skin.
2. Lift the leg and cut through the joint, removing the leg.
3. Run the point of the knife into the pelvic joint to release thigh bone. Twist the knife to free the thigh.
4. Place the thigh skinside down on the board. Observe the direction of the bone. Cut on either side of the bone to release the thigh meat.
5. Slice the smaller piece the long way. The larger piece of thigh may be cut in either direction. Serve skin side up. Serve the bone with some meat on it.
6. Remove the first wing joint. Remove and discard the wing tip.
7. Make a deep cut parallel to the board just above the wing
8. Cut parallel to the breast bone to release slices of the breast.
9. Continue slicing the breast until the keel bone is reached.
10. Remove the stuffing with a spoon.

President Obama's Ratings Plan Won't Help Needy Students
President Obama's Ratings Plan Won't Help Needy Students
Posted by
Joseph Moore
on April 3, 2014
Please share this:
Late last summer, President Barack Obama announced his plan to make higher education "a better bargain for the middle class."
Were that, indeed, the result of his plan, I would be its most vociferous and energetic proponent, but my voice won't be reverberating up and down Mass. Ave. anytime soon. That's because the Obama Administration's ratings system will further stratify American higher education as it creates more barriers for financially needy students already struggling with college costs.
President Obama's plan ties federal aid to school performance, a measure he wants determined largely by the average income earned by graduates of that institution. The idea seems prudent until you scratch the surface: then you realize that most college indicators — from admissions ratios to enrollment numbers to graduation rates to alumni earnings — are related to family income of the incoming students. Students reflect the wealth of their institutions, and institutions reflect the wealth of their students.
In essence, wealthy students disproportionately attend wealthy institutions, high-tuition colleges that boast high expenditures per students. These schools rank near the top on most measures, from selectivity to graduation rates to alumni earnings.
On the other hand, financially needy students, if they can afford a four-year education at all, tend to enroll at less affluent colleges and graduate at lower rates. These universities spend fewer dollars on these students and reside in the middle and lower half of most ranking systems. All rankings systems reflect this stratification.
According to Tom Mortenson's data reports (from Postsecondary Education Opportunity, No. 256, Oct. 2013), "In 2012 a student born into the top (25 percent) of family income was about nine times more likely to earn a bachelor's degree by age 24 than was another student born into the bottom (25 percent)."
Our higher education system has never been as stratified as it is now. It's ironic, if not cruel, that the Obama Administration now wants to rate colleges based upon alumni income in the face of such stratification. Is it the goal of the Obama Administration to sustain aid to wealthy students at wealthy institutions with high expenditures per student, and reduce aid to more financially needy students attending institutions with lower expenditures per student? If it is, the Obama Administration will have made a stunning contribution to the growing income inequality in this country.
The major growth in the undergraduate population since the mid 1970s has been Pell Grant recipients, or financially needy students. This is not caused by an influx of new immigrants; rather, this trend owes to the growing economic inequality of the past 30 years in the United States that has reduced or stalled annual income for the vast majority of American families.
Conversely, family wealth already affords greater choice for housing, health care, employment and education. What's more, students from wealthy families are poised to reap the benefits of a new college rating system while poor kids become increasingly squeezed out of the dream of higher education.
This, obviously, needs to change because the news gets even worse for students from low-income families.
My next blog post
will resume discussion of the Obama Administration's college rating plan, but with an eye toward the institutions that take advantage of this student population.

United Kingdom
It's been a huge year for Grammy-winning artist and UK heart-throb TOURIST. Known to his mum as Will Phillips, this year he released his highly anticipated debut full-length U; an unsuspecting break-up album filled to the brim with dance-floor burners. It's an album high in contrasts - four to the floor electronica, with unique ability to make you want to dance and cry. Cementing himself as one of the most in demand electronic acts of 2016, Tourist topped the Hype Machine on two accounts, landed triple j feature album and sold-out his first Australian shows in a matter of days.

It's The Elf on a…String!
Actually a lot of strings. Tomorrow the Macy's Thanksgiving Parade will get a little taste of the South, when The Elf on the Shelf makes its debut as a jumbo helium balloon in the beloved parade.
Back in 2005 Carol Aebersold and her twin daugthers, Chanda Bell and Christa Pitts, all of Powder Springs, Georgia, created an instant Christmas classic when they self-published The Elf on the Shelf , an illustrated storybook packaged with a darling elf doll. Inspired by Fisbee, a little toy elf who "magically" appeared in the Aebersold's home each holiday season , the mother-daughter team decided to share their favorite family tradition with the help of rosy-cheeked pixie elves who keep an eye on little children and send reports back to Santa at the North Pole.
Since its debut The Elf on the Shelf has sold a whopping 2.5 million copies. Despite their meteoric success the company has stayed true to its Southern roots. Its headquarters remain in Marietta, Georgia, even as Carol, Chanda, Christa amass a mini-elf empire that includes foreign language translations, online games, a CBS television special and more.
The Elf on the Shelf balloon represents the first Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade character to come from the pages of a self-published book since Peter Rabbit in 1901. Production of the balloon started in early July and took 2-miles of fabric to complete; manning the massive balloon will require 100 handlers. Maneuvering through the jam-packed, and often windy, streets of Manhattan will require our favorite elf to be on his best behavior. But we feel certain he will rise to the occasion. We'll be watching! Won't you?
The 86th Annual Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade will air on Thursday November 22, 9 am to noon, on NBC. For more information of The Elf on the Shelf visit elfontheshelf.com.

I started having botox around my mouth and in my forehead in June of 2004. I go to an RN that works with a dermatologist..She is great. She gives me a little ice pack to put across my lips while she mixes it. I believe it took 15 years off my age (I didnt expect miracles) but I was happy with the results. I was a heavy smoker for 25 years and have those tell-tale lines, the botox really softens them. I also like the way she injects it such that it raises the outside of my brows slightly. My husbands ex couldnt believe that I am 14 years older than her. The botox wears off in 2 1/2 to 3 months. I know when I need it because I can whistle again.

Thompson Creek Window CEO Named Finalist in Entrepreneur of the Year Maryland Awards
May 6, 2014
Ernst & Young named Thompson Creek Window Co. President and CEO Rick Wuest a finalist in the Entrepreneur of The Year Maryland Awards for the second year in a row. Thompson Creek is a family-owned company that Wuest took over from his father in 2000, simultaneously taking the company's products directly to the consumer for the first time.
"It is an honor to be included among Maryland business leaders who have worked hard to build their dream companies," says Wuest. "We've all taken risks to innovate and expand our businesses, and it's nice to be recognized for it."
Now in its 27th year, the Entrepreneur Of The Year Program honors entrepreneurs who demonstrate excellence in innovation, financial performance and personal commitment to their business and community.
Winners, selected by a panel of independent judges made up of previous award winners and regional business leaders, will be named at a black-tie gala June 12 at the Hilton Baltimore Hotel.

Marauders Pound Mets With 10-Run Inning
West Virginia Power 8, Hagerstown Suns 5(box) Tyler Waldron earned his third win of the season, as he allowed 2 runs on 6 hits, with 5 strikeouts over 5 innings in his start. Waldron surrendered a solo home run to Suns' CF Bryce Harper in the top of the 1st. He allowed one hit in each of the next 4 innings, though the hit in the 5th was another solo homer.Meanwhile, Waldron was getting plenty of run support. With one out in the bottom of the 1st, 2B Gift Ngoepe and 1B Matt Curry both singled, then LF Rogelios Noris drove them in with a double into left field. CF Mel Rojas also singled, and that brought in Noris, to give the Power a 3-1 lead. Noris and RF Justin Howard both singled to begint he 3rd inning, and after a wild pitch moved bot...

Facing the team that knocked them out of the state tournament last year, Wilson focused on starting and finishing strong. The Lady Rams accomplished that goal, but it was the middle quarters that were ultimately their undoing in a 60-53 loss to Cleveland at the King Holiday Hoopfest on Jan. 21 at Seattle Pacific University.
"Last year this is the game that sent us home," said Wilson head coach Michelle Birge, referencing the playoff loss last year. "This game only wakes us up. We have to get better on the close-out. We knew about their forwards ahead of time. We knew about their shooters ahead of time. Unfortunately they had big nights, because we could not get our bodies to do what our minds knew we needed to do."
Wilson held Cleveland to just two points through the first five minutes, and Carsen Stanley and Bethany Montgomery hit three-pointers in the first quarter to help launch the Lady Rams to a 17-9 lead. But the Eagles crept back into the game in the second quarter, as Myzhanique Ladd and Makayla Roper hit three-pointers on back-to-back possessions with under two minutes left in the half to give the Eagles their first lead at 27-26. The Eagles went on a 22-5 run that spanned from the middle of the second quarter until late in the third, leading 41-30 when Wilson's Kaysha Fox drained a three to bring it back to single digits.
"In the second and third quarter I thought we did a good job of breaking their pressure, but then we allowed them to resettle in their defense because we didn't have the courage to attack when we needed to attack," Birge said.
Cleveland continued to bring offensive and defensive pressure, getting their biggest lead at 56-40 on Ladd's layup with just over five minutes left in the game. Wilson then launched a 13-0 run to get back in it, as Montgomery – who led the Rams with 18 points – scored seven points during the streak.
"We really had heart," Montgomery said. "We knew that we could battle back. We're unstoppable when we play together as a team and have that love and support, and we just never give up and fight until the end."
Violet Morrow's put-back with 52 seconds left cut it to 56-53, and the Rams had several chances to tie it on their next couple possessions. But they could not find the tying basket, and the Eagles were able to salt it away at the free-throw line.
Tia Briggs had nine points and 11 rebounds for Wilson, while Morrow had eight points and Fox tallied seven points for the Rams. Roper had a game-high 23 points for Cleveland, while Alexia Mefi had 10 points and Ladd added 10 points.
"I think this is good so we know the level we need to be at, and in practice we're just going to try to obtain that level every day," Montgomery said.

In case you missed it, Jonny Gomes got an enormous tattoo commemorating the 2013 World Series Champion Boston Red Sox. No, seriously:
How sick is this?! pic.twitter.com/ADLNlj0q2q
— Mike Napoli (@MikeNapoli25) February 7, 2014
Once I got over just how incredible that tattoo is — and went out and got one inked for myself, of course — I found myself left with so many unanswered questions that no Napoli tweet could satisfy. So I'm going to explore the answers myself in an attempt to help other Red Sox fans wondering what the heck is going on with all that ink, starting with:
Q: Why am I that much more excited about the arrival of spring training and the 2014 MLB season?
A: I know, I'm as weirded out as you are that an absurd Jonny Gomes tattoo gets to me that much. It happens. (I assume someone has felt that way about his arm tats?) But maybe the memory of that championship had faded. Maybe the loss of Jacoby Ellsbury had gotten to me more than I cared to admit. Maybe I was still depressed after the Patriots laid another egg in the AFC Championship. Maybe that tattoo arrived on Twitter just in time to remind me baseball season is coming, and the Red Sox are defending champions. That fact has been etched in the history books (and, now, Gomes's side) and no one can take it back from us.
Q: Why is Mike Napoli tweeting this photo?
A: No idea. This one is forever lost to the annals of history, if only because who are we to explain the tweets of a man who wanders the streets of Boston drunken and shirtless?
Q: Let's get to the actual tattoo. What is going on? Is that Yosemite Sam in the duck boat parade?
A: No, Yosemite Sam had more of a mustache than the guy taking up residence on Gomes's ribcage. But that beard does offer plenty of insight into how the Red Sox managed to have those beards hang around for so long (and still for Gomes and Napoli, though Napoli will be the only man standing soon; sorry, Mike). The beard of ink is a full, flowing, seemingly gloriously conditioned work of facial hair (so full in fact, that inked version of Gomes wouldn't be able to see at the plate). Is that how Jonny Gomes saw himself in the mirror every morning? Is that how he justified the — I'm sorry for the graphic description in advance, but there's no other way to put this — forest of red facial pubes? Because that's what it is.
Q: What does that giant star up above have to do with anything?
A: It's probably from a previous ink session, but that still begs the question, regardless of the World Series tattoo. But I mean, what does any of it have to do with anything? Why now? How is himself riding a duck boat not a tattoo he requested at 5 in the morning altering having punted seven Bud Lights and chugged countless champagne bottles? Even my answers are composed of questions.
Q: Why are the two dates "1918" and "2013" on the front of the duck boat?
A: Good question. It seems to imply that it's been 95 years since the Red Sox last won the World Series, but thank the Lord that's not the case. Did Gomes forget what everyone and their mother knows, that the Red Sox ended that drought in 2004 (and then again in 2007for good measure! Yippee!)? Why aren't they on there? I'm guessing Gomes wants to be remembered as part of the gang the ended the Curse of the Bambino — if only when he looks at himself in the mirror.
Q: Is the duck boat the one Jake Peavy bought?
A: This goes without saying.
Q: Why the American flag flying behind Gomes's bearded likeness?
A: American League champions? I would have foregone the flag myself, because it only opens the door for skeptics who question the validity of a "World" Series when the only MLB team outside of America is the Toronto Blue Jays. But who am I to rain on Gomes's parade — seriously, he now has a parade marching across his torso — and tell him otherwise? This is Amuhrcia, and Gomes is a champion, and there's no arguing with that tattoo. End of (picture) story.
Now all that remains to be seen is what Gomes will do for an encore in 2014. Let the title defense begin.
Gomes it is pic.twitter.com/3xdV8NP9GG

old heads/new heads
hey guys! i'm not talking about gray hair vs youngblood!just wondering what kind of gains might be realized by going to a pair or world products sr torquer headsw/170cc intake runners,2.02/1.60 valves,76 cc chambers]? .i am presently using 76cc chamber bowtie heads that have 2.02/1.60 valves and some porting.come on! give me your hard earned gray cells! thanks and thanks again,jimm
Jimm, without knowing your cam design this is a tough one. I would say that there would be the most improvement in the low to midrange (30-45HP) due to the increased flow speed with a mild gain up top (10-25HP). This is a real stab in the dark though.
4jaw chuck,hey!,keep on stabbing!ok,cam is 226/234 @.050,.480/.498 duration @ .050[dont have lobe centers handy]jimm
Ahhh... that is a little bigger cam than I assumed, just turn those figures around that I just posted and that should be close to what you should expect. Sounds like a real thumper your building.

There was lots of good will to go around Citi Field on Opening Day. And with good reason, as the Mets opened their season superbly. Just about everyone that saw the field contributed. However, there were two large figures that were mostly missing – Ike Davis, and to a lesser extent, Lucas Duda. Davis went 0-for-5 with four strikeouts, while Duda was 0-for-2 with two walks and a strikeout. Both were the only two starters to go hitless, and although just one game, Davis' four strikeouts were all too reminiscent of his start to the 2012 season. But this isn't in any way to pick on Davis and Duda. This was just one game, and is in no way indicative of how their 2013 numbers will look at season's end. Instead, this is about how important they are going to be to this team, and how their success will go a long way toward determining the Mets success this year. The Mets certainly do not look like an offensive powerhouse on paper. After David Wright, Daniel Murphy and hopefully Davis, there ...

Von Metzke "groomed" underaged girls by texting
Teens reported him, but theatre slow to act
Don Bauder 2 p.m., June 25
(Page 3 of 6)
Since seeing Hercules, Burnett has spent most of his life in one gym or another. He came to Tijuana when he was 15 years old. He found work as a personal trainer at Club Atlético Bosco, one of Tijuana's first gyms. He had, he said, three or four clients per day, and at that time, he charged them $1 per hour.
"I was living with my father," Burnett told me, "and I had other work on the side. So it was enough to live on."
At NeoSpa, Burnett said, he generally works with 20 or so clients, the majority of whom are women. But who was more difficult to instruct, I asked, men or women?
"The men. Because of discipline. The men are less disciplined. They like to eat a lot. They like to drink a lot. They like to party. Women are much more given to discipline."
I spent a Saturday morning at NeoSpa. Low gray clouds again filled the sky. Misty rain slicked Tijuana's streets. Inside NeoSpa, the air was warm and humid. In one of the gym's exercise rooms, on a polished maple floor, several dozen little boys and girls practiced judo. In another room, eight young women sweated through a spinning class while a disco remix of Gloria Gaynor's "I Will Survive" thumped through stereo speakers. In the hallway between the exercise rooms, a bulletin board announced NeoSpa's schedule of classes. From Monday through Friday, from 7:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m., the board listed some 50 hour-long classes, such as yoga, Pilates, Tae-Bo, and spinning.
In the gym's largest room, I watched a woman in black spandex cross-train between strength machines and, in a smaller room off to the side, free weights. She appeared to be in her early 40s. The muscles in her shoulders, back, and thighs were well-defined. At the end of her routine, she told me her name was Silvia Muñoz. She said she was originally from Mexico City but had lived in Tijuana for 30 years. She said she worked in television and that she was a mother of five.
"I've been coming here to this gym for about three years. I've been working out for ten years," she said. "I started in Chula Vista. At 24 Hour Fitness. I had to take my children to school, and at first it was a way for me to kill time while I waited for them. I started to notice the changes in my body. I lost weight, and I had more energy. Three years ago I became very serious about working out. I started coming here, to NeoSpa. For about one year I hired a personal trainer to teach me how to use the weights and other equipment. I'd used them before, but I really didn't know what I was doing. I needed someone to teach me. I usually work out for an hour and a half on Mondays through Fridays. On Saturdays I usually work out for two to three hours."
Muñoz told me that, due to her influence, three of her five children now exercised on a regular basis. One of her daughters was exercising at the gym, she said, while we spoke. I asked Muñoz when Mexican women started to become interested in exercise.
"About eight years ago. It was part of many changes. Women started working outside the home. Men's and women's ways of thinking, their mentality, started to evolve. There was the idea that women could compete with men in, for example, the workplace. And I believe that women are more vain than men. It was a combination of a lot of factors. Wives no longer had to ask their husbands for permission to do things like go to the gym. Husbands have changed too."
And what was the most important thing that Muñoz did at NeoSpa?
"The spinning classes. I like it. It's an opportunity for me to work out all my day-to-day stress."
Ausencia, a woman in her early 30s, told me that she, too, started exercising almost ten years ago. She was fair-skinned and light-haired and quick to laugh when she spoke.
"I first started exercising out of vanity," she said.
She told me that she came from a family of six children, "and we all loved volleyball and we all exercise." She told me she had one sister in particular who was very athletic and who came every day to NeoSpa.
"In the past I exercised every day. Now, I'm busier and come to the gym only three times a week for an hour and a half each time."
Ten years ago, she said, it wasn't very common for women in Tijuana to exercise.
"The change came little by little.
"One thing that had a great deal of influence was fashion. Each year, the clothes kept getting smaller. And in order to look good in those styles, you had to be in shape. The designers were designing clothes for thin women."
Across town on Third Street, a few blocks west of Revolución, Gimnasio D'Luis sits above a small Italian restaurant. If you don't know what you're looking for, you might have a difficult time finding the gym's entrance. It sits at the end of a breezeway to the restaurant's left. A folksy painting of a bodybuilder flexing his biceps decorates the entrance's door. A flight of white tile stairs leads up to a 900-square-foot room where American and Mexican hip-hop blares from unseen stereo speakers. Floor-to-ceiling windows fill the room's northern wall, overlooking Third Street's bustle. On the afternoon I first visited the gym, an older indigenous woman stood directly across the street, stirring something in a large red plastic tub. She wore her hair in two long braids. Her little belly strained against the apron, embroidered with red and yellow birds, she'd tied about her waist. She was selling portions of a very traditional Mexican dish -- a salad made of marinated and coarsely chopped nopales, or cactus paddles. Around the mound of salad in the tub, this woman had arranged piles of garnishes for her customers to choose from -- minced cilantro, diced tomatoes, thinly sliced onion, and whole red chiles fried crisp.
"That same morning, Peniche told me that Mexican women, more than Mexican men, take an active interest in exercise.
"For Mexican men," Peniche told me, "you can still be a little chubby as long as you dress well and are capable of making intelligent conversation. But that's starting to change."
EXACTLY, that is why you will see voluptuous Mexican women with fat guys, rich or poor.
I often ask myself: why bother to run or eat right???

Darryl Stephens, one of the actors who starred in the film version of Boy Culture (2006), and who is known to many for his titular role in the series Noah's Arc (2005-2006), and/or from the series DTLA (2012), contributes this essay on the occasion of the publication of his first book, Required Reading.
As always, he expresses himself with conviction and intelligence. I'm honored to include his work on the site.—Matt
I recently wrote and published a book called Required Reading: How to Get Your Life for Good. It's part memoir, part motivational, and intended for anyone who might be interested in discovering how I've managed to make it to 41 years old as an unapologetic, openly gay black man.
Since Noah's Arc first aired ten years ago, I've been hearing from people from all over the world, asking my advice on dating/relationships, or coming out to their families/friends, or navigating their careers as openly LGBT artists. The visibility that series provided me really opened my eyes to how many people are really struggling with these issues.
Initially, my book was going to be more "Dear Abby" in tone, as I'd planned to include people's real questions on topics affecting the LGBT community and then share my advice as tidy, politically correct, inspiring responses. But as I was writing, I realized that without the context of how I came to reach these various understandings, readers would have no reason to consider my opinion worthy of their consideration. Personalizing the lessons by rooting them in my own experiences, be they "failures" or "successes," seemed to make my conclusions more relatable. Making it personal also allowed for the tone to be more conversational, which meant that I could be honest about the things I'm still struggling with, rather than throwing advice down from the proverbial mountain top.

Okay, so I'm coming out of a local 7-11, about 1pm, broad daylight. Actually a damn nice Florida day. I get my giant sized Arizona Tea ( AKA Torpedo ), and head for the car. On my way out, just outside and clustered around the door, is a bunch of construction guys ( dressed in stained jeans, work belts, boots, and t-shirts ). One of the guys has had his shirt ride up, and quite clearly has the handle of his HK sticking out of his back pocket or belt holster. Clearly enough for me to see the HK on the bottom of the gun. His back was to me.
I just looked at the gun, looked at his friends ( memorizing quick descriptions ), looked at the gun again, and walked off.
Should I have told the guy he was showing ? Or did I do the right thing by not saying anything ?

|Patriots Look Poised For Another Super Bowl Run
|Bruins Trade For Drew Stafford
|Black and Gold Bruins Turn Yellow On Parade Day
|Inconsistency Will Continue For Bruins Unless A Change Is Made
Phil Jackson won his 10th NBA Championship Sunday night, setting the NBA record for most as a head coach. He passed Celtics legend Red Auerbach, who won nine NBA titles as a head coach, including a record eight in a row.
Jackson won his first six titles with the Bulls of the 1990s, led by Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen. He won three more with the Lakers from 2000-2002, and won his 10th title Sunday night.
Red's daughter doesn't think it's fair to compare both legendary coaches.
"Not to take away from Phil, but it's a different record," said Randy Auerbach. "You're talking about a record with one team in which he won the first one and then won in eight consecutive years. Phil did it with two different teams and it wasn't consistently. It's about quantity. If that's his case, good for him…But it has to be broken down. It's a different record. How do you compare eight in a row, nine in 10 years?"
Jackson acknowledged before Game 5 that Red's era was entirely different.
"Red probably could have won two or three more championships," said Jackson. "But I think Bill, to kind of keep him involved, he turned the team over to Bill in that general manager role and Bill went on to win a couple more championships, playing and coaching at that time. So it's completely different….Of course, free agency wasn't part of the game. It was eight and then expanded to 10 teams at that time. Maybe it was nine there and then went to 10. So it was a different league entirely."
Reaction: Personally, it's impossible to compare the coaches. Red Auerbach could've probably won 13-14 titles by himself if he stayed on to coach, but he also played in a highly competitive, but smaller NBA. Sure, Jackson won with the greatest players of all time (Jordan, Kobe, Shaq)…but so did Red, with Bob Cousy, Bill Russell, Tommy Heinsohn, K.C. Jones, John Havlicek, etc.
So, Phil Jackson deserves a tremendous amount of credit for taking the Lakers all the way to the top, again.

Also - Anyone know the best way to get there from the plaza if that is where we stay? Thanks, Fodorites.

Well, if you are going to hang out on the Plaza on Saturday, I would just stay there. There are so many options for lodging there, plus the restaurants and shops, I think it would be preferable. If you stayed out by the stadium, it's just chain hotels and motels next to an interstate. I assume since you've stayed there already, you are familiar with what's available, but if not, post back and I will give some suggestions.
As for how to get there, I called DH as he works on the Plaza and has gone to games from work. He said there's "hardly any way to get there from here" which is why I had to ask! He has Mapquested it, but thinks it got him lost! And heading east from the Plaza takes you through some pretty marginal neighborhoods. If you take the street that runs along the south side of Brush Creek, heading east, then he thinks you hit 71 which you can take south to hit 435 or north to get to I-70. Looking at a map will help this make sense.
If I was doing that drive, I would probably get on SW Trafficway (west side of Plaza) north to join with I-35 North, then take that to I-70 east which will take you along the south side of downtown, then heads east to 435...the stadium is just one or two exits past 435 on I-70. Sorry if this has left you more confused than before you asked and I hope it helps! Have fun!

Thanks, Musicfan! I had a feeling there wasn't going to be a particularly easy way to get there. Ah well. Actually, I usually stay with friends, so if you have any ideas on hotels in the plaza, that would be great. I figured I'd just try Priceline and roll the dice...
Thanks again.

You're welcome!
Some hotels for you to consider (and from what I understand, Priceline is an excellent option for Kansas City):
Courtyard by Marriott: they (nicely) converted a cool old apartment building several years ago for this property; great location right across from one of our famous fountains
Hampton Inn & Suites/Sheraton Suites: more on the west end of the Plaza, but still nice from what I understand
Hotel Intercontinental: south side of the Plaza, great views of the area; high-end property
Raphael: just across the street from the Intercontinental to the east...lovely small boutique hotel; just read today in the paper that it was included on a list of 100 best places to stay in the US or something like that
Marriott (on Main Street): I'm not wild about the location of this property as it sits high on a hill, kind of far from the Plaza proper, but if you got a good deal on it, I'm sure it's nice
Embassy Suites on the Plaza: a few blocks north of the Plaza (and about two blocks north of the Courtyard. Okay location. It has been there for decades; I haven't been in it lately, but will be staying there myself in a couple of weeks as our daughter's wedding will take place nearby
Hope this is helpful to you and that you have a wonderful time!

Also, just thought of this...you might also consider the Crown Center area...it's still very "Kansas City." You would be closer to I-70, the shops in Crown Center tend to be more local, rather than national chains, Union Station is there, as well as the Liberty Memorial (and the World War I Museum, which is outstanding). Look for the Westin Crown Center and/or the Hyatt Regency.

Thank you again... Crown Center was a great idea.

Try Priceline for Crown Center. You can almost always get a great rate for the Hyatt.

I would stay on the Plaza for the restaurants and shopping. You can get a great deal at the Intercontinental (one of the nicest hotels in the area) on priceline. I agree it is difficult to tell you how to get to the stadiums from the Plaza. We sometimes drive that way, but I don't even think our route shows up on Mapquest. I don't know the names of the streets - just that we turn after the house with the toilets in the front yard and we call one of the roads "dead body road" . . . probably not the way to take an out of towner! I'd stick with the I-70 route.
Another hotel option is the President near the Power and Light District. It is very happening on the weekends and I've heard the College Basketball Experience is really cool.
Have fun!
Report Abuse
LOL, Attnymom!
The President Hotel is a Hilton property I believe.
The College Basketball Experience is located in a corner of the Sprint Center Arena (on the east end of the Power & Light District)
And if it's been awhile since you've been to Kansas City, Rocket, then take some time to see the Power & Light District as it is pretty impressive. Kind of a debt burden right now, but it beats what was there beforehand and when it's a busy night, it's a pretty "happening" place.
Report Abuse
Hey - Thanks for all the info. I'm a Midwesterner, but my husband is a transplanted New Yorker. Hence - the Yankees game. Otherwise, we don't do a lot with sports... Tell me if this is correct thinking: When I look at the map, it seems as though Main St. is a thoroughfare that we could take from the Plaza to Crown Center as well as Power & Light? I think we will likely stay in the Plaza area, given that it's just one night. The other (probably really dumb) question is: to get to the stadiums, is it better or quicker to head north to catch 1-70 or south? I think we will not take the "toilet yard, dead body route" this time around...
Report Abuse
Yes, you can take Main all the way from the Plaza to Crown Center and the Power and Light District.
And, if it were me, I would head north to get on I-70...you might even be able to get there by continuing on Main, but that little detail escapes me right now.
By the way, I just saw on biddingfortravel that people have been getting the Hyatt/Crown Center for $63.
Report Abuse
Thanks again! I did a lot of research yesterday, and north to I-70 is def. the way to go. We may even just stay downtown and drive to the plaza - who knows. I will have to get it pulled together this weekend, but Priceline sure seems the way to go - $63 isn't too shabby!

There are some beautiful views of downtown from the Hyatt and Westin and the parking is pretty convenient. Plus, if the weather is rainy or terribly hot, you can walk inside all the way from the Crown Center Shops/Westin Hotel over to Union Station, and then there is a covered walkway across the railroad tracks to several nice restaurants...Lidia's, JackStack BBQ and a German restaurant I haven't been to yet. And those are addition to the restaurants in the Shops.
Report Abuse
Just to let you know - Priceline took my bid of $60 for 4-star downtown KC - I ended up with the Hyatt Crown Center. Wish I'd have been right in the heart of Power and LIght, but the price can't be beat... ! Thanks again all!

Woo hoo! That's great! I think you'll really enjoy it there.
I can think of only one hotel that's really close to P&L--the Hilton President and I don't know much about it.
Crown Center is a nice area and there is a good selection of restaurants...I forgot to mention Pierpont's in Union Station...one of my favorites.
Have a great time! Glad to have helped.

New Pennsylvania Store for ABC
ABC Supply Co. Inc. is opening a new store in Carnegie, Pa. The new location is the building products distributor's second in the Pittsburgh metropolitan area, the other being in North Huntingdon, Pa. The company has 13 additional branches located throughout Pennsylvania.
The branch will open with 11 employees. The facility will include approximately 42,000 square feet of warehouse and showroom space in two buildings. Called a Solution Center, the showroom is designed so that contractors can use it as their own showroom, notes Ramiro Leal, branch manager. "Contractors will get the benefits of having their own showroom without the investment of time and capital involved in maintaining one."
"Contractors and builders will be able to bring their homeowner customers to the Solution Center to select their roofing, windows, siding or other products," Leal adds. "The displays will make it easy for them to show their customers the various options and what's new in the industry."

text: I purchased a used 2009 V from a dealer in Virginia and I live in Cleveland. The car has 19k on it and is in perfect condition. The only isse was the suede on the steering wheel/shift knob needed replaced. I believe a woman must have driven the car and the lotion on her hands ruined the suede. I attempted to have the dealer cover this under warranty but they said it was as wear item. The customer service response I got was poor, most likely because I didnt buy the car from them. I ended up purchasing the steering wheel/shift knob and went to Morris Cadillac outside of Cleveland to have it installed. They treated me like I didnt matter, again because I didnt buy the car from them, even though I purchased a new V from them a few years back. Service manager told me the cost to replace the steering wheel was $64.00. I also asked about replacing the shift knob for free since it must be a 2 min job. He came back and said it would cost $125.00. That is not a typo, $125 to replace the shift knob. I told him I would do it myself. They replaced the steering wheel in 12 min. When I questioned the $64.00 he said to me and I quote, We make out on some jobs and lose on others. My jaw dropped when he said this. To make things even better, when I got home I used my cell phone to google replacing the shift knob and the directions stated, put car in reverse, push forward and pull up. I had the shift knob replaced in less than 2 min. Sad to say GMs products may have improved, however their dealers and customer service is still subpar.

cloud uptime
Cloud uptime is the amount of time that a cloud service hosted by a cloud provider is accessible to end users.
When negotiating cloud uptime in a cloud storage service-level agreement (cloud storage SLA), organizations should evaluate the following items:
1. How fast will the system work when it is up and running? (This is also known as a response time warranty.)
2. What is the guaranteed uptime percentage? (Find out if 99.999% uptime (five nines) requires an upgrade to the standard vendor contract)
3. What timeframe is the vendor using for its uptime guarantee? (Some providers may base their uptime on an annual basis instead of a monthly one.)
Cloud storage face-off: Public cloud vs. private cloud vs. hybrid cloud storage
Every cloud storage option has its pros and cons. Depending on your specific needs, the size of your environment, and your budget, it's essential to weigh all cloud and on-prem options. Download this comprehensive guide in which experts analyze and evaluate each cloud storage option available today so you can decide which cloud model – public, private, or hybrid – is right for you.
By submitting your personal information, you agree that TechTarget and its partners may contact you regarding relevant content, products and special offers.
You also agree that your personal information may be transferred and processed in the United States, and that you have read and agree to the Terms of Use and the Privacy Policy.
4. Is scheduled maintenance included in the cloud uptime guarantee? (Will services be available during scheduled mantenance?)
5. Does guaranteed uptime require changes to the customer's infrastructure? (If so, is there already a process in place for making those changes?)
6. What happens if the service goes down? (Will the customer receive an email notification, text message or phone call?)
7. What are the penalties if the cloud provider doesn't meet its cloud uptime requirements? (Will the customer be reimbursed in some manner?)
To ensure the customer gets the cloud uptime requested, it is recommended that a third-party collect data from the cloud service provider (using agreed-upon tools and calculations) and report its findings.

Britain is facing a major sperm shortage, forcing fertility clinics to rely on imported sperm to keep up with demand.
The British Fertility Society (BFS) has warned that the shortage might tempt sperm banks to 'bend the rules' and accept poorer quality sperm or lead women to resort to risky practices, such as DIY insemination.
Since 2005, more than double the amount of sperm samples donated to UK clinics have come from abroad.
Figures from the fertility watchdog, the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority, show nearly one in four donated sperm samples now come from overseas, compared with one in 10 almost a decade ago.
Sperm banks in Denmark and the US are the major suppliers.
Although the demand for donors has been falling thanks to advances in the various fertility treatments available, there is still a shortage of men coming forward.
It is thought donors have been put off following the removal of 'right to anonymity' in 2005.
BFS chairman, Dr Allan Pacey, warned that the shortage was limiting patient choice and increasing waiting times, which could in turn lead to woman inseminating themselves or seeking treatment in a country with less fertility regulation.
He told the BBC he was worried some clinics might lower their standards in a bid to "get donors through the door". For example, accepting sperm only suitable for injecting into an egg rather than for artificial insemination.
"We do still have a major sperm shortage in the UK," he said. "My worry is clinics may be tempted to bend the rules, I have no evidence that they are, but I think when we have a national sperm shortage they're the kind of things we need to be looking for and warding against."
A HFEA spokesperson said: "We expect our clinics to use only donor sperm of a quality that will ensure the best outcome for the patient, and under our code of practice clinics are required to fully inform patients of the different treatment options available to them."

"We were looking for an announcement that would include our 5 year old daughter and this was perfect! What a beautiful way to include everyone. The paper is top quality as I have come to expect from Tiny Prints. Highly recommend."
"I picked this card because I was able to put her entire name on the card. Most cards don't have the space to do this. Also, the square pictures worked with the photos I chose. I wish it would have come in purple though."
"The birth announcement turned out perfectly! The quality of the photos and printing was excellent! I've received numerous positive comments on the announcements. Thank you tinyprints!"
"This birth announcement could not be more perfect! I was extremeley pleased with the outcome, the photo quality was excellent as well as the text. The customer service from Tiny Prints was fantastic, very helpful with the questions I needed answered before placing my order. This is a great card for the money, I love Tiny Prints, so much that I am ordering my sons Baptism invitations from them as well!"

The Tallmadge girls basketball team improved to 12-5 overall and 5-5 in the Suburban League after earning a 56-53 victory over Nordonia at James O. Maddox Court.
The Lady Knights rallied from an 11-point deficit (47-36) in the fourth quarter to tie the game at 53 when Raquel Pintz knocked down a 3-pointer with 37.1 seconds left.
But the Lady Blue Devils answered on the very next possession.
Kelsey Rice found a wide-open Kirsten Lightel in the left corner. Lightel buried a 3 to give Tallmadge a 56-53 advantage with 21.8 seconds left.
Nordonia (12-5, 6-5) misfired on a couple of 3-point attempts and did not get a shot off during its final possession.
Tallmadge led most of the game and had a 19-8 edge early in the second quarter.
Thanks to a 7-0 run early in the third period, the Lady Knights cut the Lady Blue Devils' lead to 31-29.
However, Tallmadge responded with a run of its own to build its advantage back up to double digits.
Joanna Catalano led the Lady Blue Devils with a game-high and career-high 23 points on 11-of-15 shooting.
Mary Ryan added 14 points for Tallmadge and Rice finished with 12 rebounds and seven assists.
Pintz came off the bench to score a team-high 14 points for Nordonia. She made four 3-pointers. Meghan Reilly added 12 points for the Lady Knights.
The Lady Blue Devils also posted a 21-20 victory in the junior varsity team. The Tallmadge JV squad, which has won six consecutive games, improved to 7-8.

text: "Business travelers are feeling more pressed today compared with a year ago. They are facing greater demands from all sides as they are seeking to balance their work and personal lives, according to the survey," says Michael Murphy, SVP of Cambria Suites. "In this environment, productivity away from the office is very important. Our findings also revealed that if business travelers focus not just on their work productivity while traveling, but also on their personal productivity, they can make inroads to achieve a better work-life balance, which is an important goal for nine out of 10 road warriors (87%)."Technology Critical to Balance Top Personal Challenges on the Road The Cambria Suites survey found that spending time with loved ones (62 percent) and missing important events and milestones in their personal lives (42 percent) are two of the top five challenges cited by business travelers while on the road. Others include: eating healthy and on a regular schedule (68 percent), getting proper sleep (62 percent), and exercising regularly (60 percent). Caring for pets at home (24 percent) is also a concern for some business travelers. According to the survey, technology is a top tool for business travelers to balance personal and professional needs; nearly two-thirds (66 percent) of business travelers cite technology as critical in achieving greater overall work-life productivity. While technology has made business travel more efficient and productive for nearly eight of 10 travelers (78 percent), it is equally significant in helping them stay connected with loved ones on business trips (81 percent). Right Hotel has More Impact on Staying Productive than Flight or Rental Car The survey also revealed the importance hotels play in achieving balance and productivity when traveling. More than half of road warriors (56 percent) say that the hotel component has a greater impact on their ability to work productively than other trip components, such as their flight or rental car. Comfortable beds and bedding (65 percent), closely followed by free Wi-Fi (62 percent) are cited as most important when it comes to hotel services and amenities. Friendly, helpful staff (39 percent), free parking (30 percent) and a spacious, well-appointed hotel guestroom (26 percent) complete the top five must-have hotel services for business travelers.

From CNN:
The funeral of slain Ferguson, Missouri, teenager Michael Brown was a celebration of his life, a search for meaning in his death and a battle cry to change policing in America.
The Rev. Al Sharpton delivered one of two eulogies during the service Monday, and he had sharp words for those who looted stores and clashed with police after the teenager was shot.
"You don't understand that Michael Brown does not want to be remembered for a riot. He wants to be remembered as the one that made America deal with how we're going to police in the United States."
With a call to action, Sharpton criticized police who pointed rifles at peaceful protesters in Ferguson. "We have to leave here today and change this," he said.
He urged mourners at Friendly Temple Missionary Baptist Church to respect the Brown family's wish for silence Monday. And when protests resume, Sharpton said "they've asked for it to be peaceful. If you can't control yourself, then don't do it in Michael's name. Do it in your own name."

How to fix sagging drawers for buildins?
I noticed drawers on a buildin desk in my kitchen is sagging recently. After removing the drawers, I saw the contractor attached one of the panels using staples. Those staples cannot handle the weight so that vertical panel is patially detached. The space is tight so I cannot drill a pocket hole on the vertical panel unless I remove the whole thing. Is there other ways to fix it?
Glue a shim or wedge UNDER the panel to hold it up.
Some glue at the top before pushing it up would not hurt either.
I might do a simple check first.
Take a level and check the bottom of that panel the drawer glide is attached to.
Reason I suggest that is to see if just gluing and lifting that piece back in place is going to effect the drawer when it's fully extended.
And to see if someone just screwed up by installing that horizontal strip to low.
Are any of the other drawers effected?
It looks like it was glued and stapled in. The extra weight in the drawers has pushed it down and the rail underneath is bending from the weight as well. I would just push it back into place and add some L-brackets on either side of the divider and into the back or top bar. Use 1 1/2" L brackets and 3/4" screws.
Store your bricks somewhere else, haha
If you do try the L brackets your going to need special screws.
particle board does not hold screws well.
The other fix could be to leave it. It is not going to sag any further. Reset the glide to a level position.
I would shim under it quick and easy and it won't be able to sag again.
Oops! didn't realize I posted the pictures more than once.
I checked the level yesterday. Both the front and rear are sagging. There are 2 drawers. The sagging is so severe that those 2 drawers are not horizontal/vertical any more. They would even hit each other on the top adjacent corners.
For front, it's an easy fix. The rear part I believe brackets and screws would be the solution.
BTW I didn't put anything heavy in the drawers. The weight of the drawers themselves is enough to cause the sagging since the frame is not attached to the table top properly (table top is level).
Thanks everyone for your input. I love this forum.
problem solved. I used L brackets. now the desk is solid as a rock.
thanks for everyone's input.

Human Services
posted by Sasha .
What are the merits of multiple perspectives when examining human behavior? Why is it important? Provide examples of the impact of using multiple perspectives when providing services to a family or individual.
Sasha. I answered this for you and then asked you to comment on my response.
Please do not continue posting the same question over and over without giving us some indication of YOUR ideas.
Well, I put this on here because I needed help because I do not know where I need to be at and I don't believe the answer you gave me was correct so that is why I reposted it. Excuse me for this being my first time to use this kind of website.
Why don't you think my answer was correct? Please explain and I'll rethink my answer and try to help you.
Here was my original answer:
Different professionals, medical doctors, psychologists, social workers, clergy, teachers, etc., will see behavior from different perspectives. Between all of them, they should come up with a fairly accurate assessment of a person's behavior.
In the book, Dimensions of the Human Behavior, it is talking about the merits of multiple behavior. Your answer did not seem to fit into what the book was talking about. I have to go to bed now, I have to be up at 4:00 in the morning. I will be looking for your response when I get to work. Thank you for your help.
The original answer is correct. Multiple perspectives includes behavioral, psychoanalytic, cognitive, and sociocultural. Each viewpoint adds to the total picture of an individual and her behavior, and just looking at one perspective, the picture is incomplete.
Is it possible that the text is teaching about the cyclical and environmental behaviors unique to each individual.
For instance, young children have different behaviors than older children and so on. People usually act differently in different environments, i.e., football games, school, church, parties with their friends.

A few vectors were reviewed later last night and more today…happy some of mine got accepted!
I know it's tough, but hold tight and someone will get to your files!
The reviewers are doing a great job, i had my file reviewed and accepted in under 48 hours which i think is great – with 3 reviewers they're doing an excellent job to manage a large number of files and requests,
While us Authors love to think that the Reviewers are superhuman – they do infact live normal lives!
But, all jokes aside you guys are doing well with what ever circumstances your under.
Though, it would be good to hire one reviewer from each world region as so to speak: Oceania/Asia Europe/Russia Americas/Canada/Etc
Then basically in theory you'd have reviewers available nearly 24/7…
Amanda and Scott: US (GMT-6 / -9 area) Me: Netherlands (GMT+1) Kailoon: Asia (GMT + a lot)
Here's the issue though, for instance, I have exams now. That means I am out of rotation and the others cover for me.

Due to the predicted storm, the Town of Winamac is invoking its snow emergency parking plan starting at 7:00 a.m. ET on Tuesday, February 1st and ending on Friday, February 4th at Noon ET.
During this time, on-street parking is restricted to the odd addressed side of the streets. This is being done to facilitate keeping the streets open during the storm, movement of emergency vehicles during the storm and snow removal after the storm is over. Your cooperation will be greatly appreciated.

TimeWhy?s are the most authentic performers of Sixties classic rock in the Lehigh Valley area.
"TimeWhy?s performed for us for the first time at this year's Fall Foliage Festival. They had a large crowd for their entire set as people were definitely enjoying themselves and listening to the music. TimeWhy?s had no problem with even tricky numbers, and they did tunes we all knew. As festival organizers, that's what you have to have – people having a great time, and the music transporting them there. We'll have them back next year for sure – highly recommended!"
Dan Hugos, Mauch Chunk Opera House co-manager / Jim Thorpe Fall Foliage Festival organizer
