Note: Here's my Fourth of July gift to you guys. Enjoy.
I used to be a perfectly content hyperactive spider monkey squirrel who hid from the rest of the world by cowering behind her laptop and nibbling fervently on cold spinach puffs in the wee hours of the morning.
Then I discovered my true calling: Being a lightning-struck hyperactive spider monkey squirrel who hides from the rest of the world by cowering behind her laptop and nibbling fervently on cold spinach puffs in the wee hours of the morning while making obnoxious remarks about the state of grammar in the world.
For a long time, my newly found Gravatar State aided me in my pointedly sarcastic remarks and generally made my life worth living.
Unfortunately, all good things end either in unnecessary sequels, prequels, and I-hate-you-but-need-your-money-to-feed-my-alcohol-addiction-quels; slow descents into madness; or truckloads of Chihuahuas. No, trust me, I've seen more things end in truckloads of Chihuahuas than anything, except for that one time it ended in a truckload of Chihuahua-shark hybrids . . . but then again, that did allow me to try out my thirty-dollar flamethrower, so maybe that wasn't such a bad thing.
Either unfortunately or fortunately, depending on your view of the Infinite Improbability Drive, my Grammar Lordship has taken a very steep turn into the "descent into madness" state of "Conquering the World and Becoming a Bald Supervillain". As much as I could argue the point for being a supervillain, I prefer to keep my hair in one place: My head.
Therefore, this blog post has been brought to you by the Grammar Nation, whose Orbital Drop Shock Troopers are coming to a street corner near you.
"I have all the power in the world! Muahahahah!"
Guru Pathik hates my soul. As I settling down and preparing myself to watch one of my favorite chapters and hopefully open my chakras - hint: Chakras don't make pinging sound effects when opened - I mentally reviewed the seven chakras, their locations, with what they deal, and by what they are blocked.
That was when I heard something terrifying.
My forehead instantly became covered in sweat. The world was a blur, and my heart raced, reaching a high of 216 beats a minute. With quivering fingers, I took hold of my mouse and carefully dragged it back about thirty seconds.
I listened.
I had been correct.
Guru Pathik clearly wished to drive me insane. This was his wish, and he was going to do it better than that truckload of Chihuahua-shark hybrids.
My favorite show had made a grammatical error. I was left unable to enjoy the beauty of the moment and Aang's inner fears of Zaang shipping.
Now my earth chakra is blocked, because I fear for the state of grammar in this world.
And just when I thought the worst was over - yes, the previous clause does have some major grammatical issues - I realized that the onslaught had barely begun. Indeed, Guru Pathik was clearly out to gently take my already fragile mental state into his massive palms and do to it what a dog would do to a petrified partridge, that one I shot with a single cartridge. Miss Lander, if you're reading this, I still hate that musical, and I will never agree to sing that stupid song again.
It was at this point that I leaped up from my chair and began to run around in a neat little circle at six miles an hour. I was duly informed that six miles an hour was far too dangerous and that one should only run at three. Unable to comprehend what was being said, I chose to very loudly yell "Get the fluoride uranium carbon potassium out of my room!"
I was unable to watch the rest of the water chakra segment because I was too busy rocking myself while sobbing that the Four LOLcats of the Grammar Apocalypse had come. I'd like to believe that a fire-breathing koala sheep in red pajamas was involved, but I'm not sure now.
Now my water chakra is blocked, because I feel guilt ruining one of my favorite moments of television history with my stupidity.
I ceased running around and instead stood there like a philosopher sharkgator in a ballerina's tutu standing in front of a corpse and trying to decide whether to eat it or urinate on it. Yes, tutus can urinate. I'm afraid it's a simple fact of life.
"What? You weren't standing there! You grabbed a copy of Flatland and was about to ram it into your computer screen!"
Gee, thanks, voice in my mind. Get out. Get out! Leave! Begone! None shall pass!
"You are a Grammar Ozai, and therefore you are an insane person."
Stop mocking me, you Chihuahua-shark hybrid! Stop it!
"Let me stay."
Fine. You can stay if you let me call you Li'l Voice, even though the word 'li'l' is not recognized by my spell-check and therefore has a squiggly red line underneath that will give me nightmares and cause me to hyperventilate more quickly than a shaved jackrabbit on crack-spiked coffee on jet skis - don't ask me how crack-spiked coffee received access to jet skis - and all the other things in that high-speed Internet commercial.
You know what Internet?
I don't care! Hah!
"What? Well . . . my preferred title is the Lord of the Flies . . . but I suppose that Li'l Voice works as well."
Now that I have a Li'l Voice in my mind as further proof of my imminent insanity, I can safely say that I'm on the highway to Candyland.
Please, let it be Candyland and not Candyfornia.
Now my fire chakra is blocked, because I am ashamed that I am a Grammar Ozai.
Thankfully, it appeared as though I had earned a brief respite from my constant war against the grammatical errors of the show, as the Good Guru had refrained from asking any more questions riddled with misplaced prepositions; however, I was unable to comprehend what was going on, as my mind was still fighting the War on
Terror Stupidity!
Sadly, I wasn't sure what to do. This wasn't a forum or chat room where I could cleverly disguise my well-meaning lessons in grammar behind hand-picked sarcasm and witty ironies; this was a television show that had already been written, spoken, animated, colored, and aired. What was I supposed to do now?
I'll tell you what.
I will tell you what.
I was supposed to drop it and leave it alone, but the Grammar Sages compelled me to begin my search for the one thing that stood between me and an Avatar free of grammatical errors: My sanity.
Fortunately for me, that didn't prove too difficult to destroy mercilessly.
Now my air chakra is blocked, because I grieve for grammar.
Unable to move, think, or live - I'm still quite convinced a Bloodbender has reanimated my dead corpse and is forcing me to type this while screaming in agony, torture, pain, and whatever other synonyms your thesaurus has that mine doesn't - I attempted to persuade myself that KFAJ had been correct and that the errors stated previously were not, in fact, grammatical errors.
"Why," I said to myself, "it's just another one of those quaint rules of grammar no one follows."
Li'l Voice, on the other hand, had quite a different opinion. Being in cahoots with Guru Pathik - and I'm certain that both Toasty, the toaster, and Are-You-Still-In, the bathroom, are conspirators as well; the two of you, please stop telling me to take the blue pill, because I know exactly which pill to take - he smartly noted, "Technically, the dictionary now has words like 'unfriend'. Are you going to follow the modern rules of grammar?"
"What?" I cried. "No! No! Unfriend can never be a word! The day it becomes a word is the day the universe implodes!"
Now my sound chakra is blocked, because I am lying to myself that they were not, in fact, errors.
Now my sound chakra is blocked, because I am under the illusion that the grammar of the world isn't quite over and dead.
As the onslaught against the Forces of Grammar continued, with Twitter and Facebook rampaging through the land, burning more things than even Trogdor the Burninator, and making myself act like some sort of fool Ukrainian struck by lightning - hey, wait a second - I was forced onto the defensive. Sitting under a blanket with my Council of War - a penny, a chip, a slightly used napkin, tea server Aang, and Noh Koh - I unrolled my map of the world and started to plan a strategy of total warfare.
I planned to begin at a little place known as the Avatar Wiki. Though I was currently there as an agent of fanon, I knew that soon enough, I would start my quest to world domination, just as soon as I could finish off the last round of ABCLAF chapters.
"Today: Grammar. Tomorrow: The world!"
Thus, to my loyal subjects, I apologize sincerely for lacking on my canon edits in recent times. The second I finish posting ABCLAF - currently scheduled on July 30th - I swear that I will continue the Comma Crusade and ride Armored Appa to victory!
In conclusion:
Now my energy chakra is blocked, because I am attached to grammar. And Arthur.
Update: Shortly after posting this, I found my confiscated Koh plushie. You know what? Being a Grammar Ozai rocks.
See you next time!
~The Avatar Demotivator

Drunk? Don't Drive!For many, the annual Songkran, a traditional family fun holiday ends up as a time of tragedy. In 2001, the Emergency Room in Chiangmai's Suan Dork Hospital reported an average of 7 deaths per day. Tragic indeed that the lives of these were young men ranging from high school age to mid 20's were ended. They leave behind parents and young wives with young children. Even more tragic is the report that 3 times this number were young men who ended the holiday celebration as maimed or as paraplegics.
Representatives of nine Chiangmai service clubs are taking the initiative to educate the public to accept this problem as the responsibility of each citizen to alleviate this tragedy that occurs every holiday season. Ironically, the funds to support the "Drunk Don't Drive" campaign (Mao Mai Khaab) are from the Thai Health Promotion Foundation fund derived from taxes based on cigarette and alcohol sales. The fund supports activities which help improve the physical, mental and spiritual health of the population.
On the panel at the press conference were Mrs. Somboon Suprasert, the organizer; Jao Duangduen Na Chiangmai , a leading authority on the culture and traditions of northern Thailand; Professor Kasem Nakornkhet of Chiangmai University, Dr. Thiravoot Komootboot the medical director of the emergency Room of the Suan Dork Hospital and Police Captain of the Traffic Police, Police Captain Bundit Soothiprapa.
Each panelist discussed the tragedy as seen from their own view point. From the disintegration of the traditional celebration of Songkran to the disintegration of the youth who should be the future energy of our society.
As the dignity and respect of the cultural traditions disappear, the point of the celebration is reduced to a test of "manliness" to see how much a good ole boy can drink.
Dr. Thiravoot earnestly spoke of how as a medical doctor he trained to save lives but at this 3-day holiday, his team save lives through amputation or using boring holes in a skull to relieve pressure on the brain. The karma of the silly, childish action of over drinking comes to reality all too tragically in the emergency room.
Dr. Kasem spoke on the psychology of the inebriated youth who shrug off personal responsibility for this drunken state but is quick to blame the 'other' driver as the cause of accidents. The youth feel this is 'their time of year' to drink out of control.
Captain spoke of what it's like for a duty commander to "hit the jackpot" when assigned to work on an afternoon of one of the three official holidays. The traffic police in the precinct breath a sigh of relief when they know they are not officially assigned duty. But all officers are forbidden to ask for personal leave or to call in sick during this intense holiday.
Last year as duty commander, Captain remembers well that he did not even see the inside of his office throughout the 6 hour afternoon shift. Twenty accidents that occurred in that time period. He drove from accident to accident. A few accidents turned out to be merely fender benders between arguing drunks. More often, the police were in the same circumstance as the medics, nurses and doctors being first on the scene to see the lifeless bodies with brains oozing out in a vivid red puddle on the road. Another horrible but common sight are the severed hands, arms, and feet strewn at an accident scene.
The panelists fervently spoke about the tragedies they could not avoid in their professional capacities. They urged wives and mothers to keep their intoxicated loved ones safe from harm by hiding the keys to the motorbikes and cars. The public can call 1669 to report a drunk driver to the authorities. Those who report can rest assured they are adding years to their loved ones lives.
Another sobering thought would be to remind the potential drunk driver that he will not easily get off with a pat on the wrist when arrested. The offender must post bond at the time of arrest. Later, he appears before a judge and the jail sentence starts at a duration of three months. In addition, the fine starts at Baht 2,000.

My son is 4 1/2 years old. He has been peeing in the potty for some time now, however we cannot get him to sit on the toilet to have a BM. He never did sit down to pee, but did it standing up from the beginning. He is tactile defensive and a sensory avoider. It does seem like he is afraid of the sensation of sitting up on the toilet over a hole. We have a very good stable potty seat and a stool for him to use, but the problem is getting him up there at all! He is not motivated by the promise of reward or being a "big boy".

Even if you don't know where you see yourself in five years, there's a right way to answer during an interview. [TWEET]
"Where do you see yourself in five years?"
No interview question has ever been more daunting or mind-numbing. No worries though, hiring managers aren't concerned with your actual plans; they want to see what you come up with on the spot.
Why do they ask these razzle and dazzle questions?
If hiring managers don't care about your path in 1,820 days, then why do they ask these silly questions? Asking "where do you see yourself in 5 years" is more about getting insight into your hopes and aspirations. Interviewers ask about plans and goals you have set to give them an inside look into how you operate and structure your thoughts. The interviewer wants to understand more about your career goals and how this position would fit into your grand plan. Companies want trusted, detailed-oriented and committed team members who are willing to take a leap, not a hit-it-and-miss-it employee who is only sticking around until better opportunities arise elsewhere. Also, be aware that hiring managers will ask a similar question different ways. Here are a few examples of similar questions.
What are your long-term career goals?
What is your ideal job at this stage in your career?
What are you looking for?
How do you define success?
What is most important to you in your career?
How to approach a question that really has no answer
First, no one knows where they will be in five years, and the hiring manager is aware of this. They are not looking for you to lay out a specific plan, detailing everything you are going to do. Focus on what your dreams are, where you would like to take your career next and how you plan to do this. Be realistic; hiring managers are as likely to reject a farfetched idea just as quickly as no idea at all.
Understand the question for what it is, and answer it in a similar fashion. Don't focus on specific dates, but form your answer to reflect contemplation. For example, instead of telling them you want to be an executive vice president in two years and the president in five, answer a different way.
"I always take the time and effort to advance my career, skills and knowledge. In five years, I plan to have acquired more in-depth knowledge of the company and industry. Those new skills will help me advance my career."
Another win-win "where do you see yourself in 5 years" answer is to focus on how you plan to help the company. Hiring managers want someone who will add to the team structure and help advance the company. For example, "My first goal is to learn the financial structure of the company, analyze the competition's strategies and develop strategies to exceed others in the market."
What you should avoid saying
The first no-no to this question is obvious. The wrong "where do you see yourself in 5 years" answer is "I don't know." If the answer doesn't come to you at first, take a few seconds to think about how you have progressed the last five years. Take those moments, consider the natural flow of progress and formulate an answer. Do not, ever, for any reason, provide a fluffy answer. Hiring managers can see right through those and will reject your candidacy on the spot. They do not want you to lie, manipulate or give an off-the-wall answer.
If your five-year goal is to become an investment banker, then do not apply for a job in a different department or field. On the other hand, don't tell the hiring manager your plans to leave. If you want to be an investment banker and are applying for a job as an executive assistant, chances are you will quit in less than a year. You know it, the hiring manager knows it and ultimately it will make you both look bad.
In reality, you are probably considering several potential career paths. It's okay and wise to keep your options open to a certain extent. However, you don't have to advertise this fact in your job interviews. Never lie, but never show all your cards.
Hiring managers love to surprise candidates with bizarre questions. One of the most popular is the "where do you see yourself" question. These types of questions help determine how applicants think, plan and snap back from the unexpected. Follow these basic rules and you should be golden!
Keep your answer general.
Stress your interest in a long-term career at the company.
Demonstrate your enthusiasm for the job.
Don't lie.
Hire a TopResume writer to help you land more interviews, faster.

By Keith Matheny, Marie McCain and Erica Solvig, The Desert Sun
BEAUMONT, Calif. An auto mechanic in jail Wednesday in connection with two June arson fires is a "person of interest" in last week's massive wind-whipped wildfire that killed five federal firefighters, the Riverside County Sheriff's Department said.
Raymond Lee Oyler, 36, was arrested Tuesday after his home was searched Monday, Sgt. Earl Quinata said.
Quinata issued a news release Tuesday night that said Oyler was not a suspect in the Esperanza fire. He has not been charged in that fire.
Oyler, who is being held in the Riverside County jail in lieu of $25,000 bail, is accused of igniting the two earlier fires near this rural town 20 miles west of Palm Springs. He is being arraigned today on charges related to those fires.
Jason Walden, general manager of the auto center where Oyler has worked for four months, described him as a real workhorse.
"They're climbing up the wrong tree," said Walden, a former firefighter with the U.S. Forest Service. "He's not someone who is into fire."
Oyler uses blowtorches on the job, but "he doesn't get that gleam in his eye like a pyromaniac," Walden said.
Whoever is ultimately charged with last week's wildfire arson also will face murder charges and, potentially, the death penalty, said Sara Danville, Riverside County chief deputy district attorney for the Major Crimes Unit.
Firefighters on Monday were able to surround the wildfire that blackened more than 40,200 mostly uninhabited acres, the California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection reported. Firefighting costs reached $9.9 million.
The fire, which was started last Thursday, burned 34 homes and killed five firefighters. The five — Capt. Mark Loutzenhiser, 43, of Idyllwild; Jason McKay, 27, of Phelan; Jess McLean, 27, of Beaumont; Daniel Hoover-Najera, 20, of San Jacinto; and Pablo Cerda, 23, of Fountain Valley — will be honored in a memorial service in a large arena near San Bernardino on Sunday.
Cerda, who suffered burns over 90% of his body, died Tuesday at a hospital near San Bernardino.
A preliminary report from the U.S. Forest Service released Tuesday said the firefighters had only one escape route from a house they were trying to save. Their engine faced toward that escape route, but the fire overwhelmed them, the report stated, and they were not able to seek shelter.
At least three federal departments will separately investigate the scene.
"The objective of this safety investigation is to determine facts surrounding the incident, identify lessons learned, and develop recommendations for accident prevention purposes," the preliminary report stated.
Local investigators Wednesday continued questioning people, including convicted arsonists, to determine who started the blaze.
The Riverside County sheriff announced shortly after the six-day blaze began that they were dealing with arson. A reward leading to an arrest and conviction is $550,000 and growing. A fund for the firefighters' families also exceeds $500,000 and could eventually reach $1 million, Riverside County officials said.

The midfielder only has one year left on his contract with the Gelsenkirchen outfit, with Goal.com having revealed that he and colleague Julian Draxler are targets for Liverpool
The Germany international, who will be a free agent next summer, was revealed by Goal.com in July to be a target for Liverpool, along with club colleague Julian Draxler.
But, while the 21-year-old claims he has no interest in leaving Gelsenkirchen just yet, he would love to test himself in England one day.
"The Premier League is a goal at some point," Holtby told Goal.com after Schalke's 1-0 friendly defeat to AC Milan on Tuesday evening.
"As a footballer, you want to improve always, and in football everything is possible.
"But I'm comfortable at Schalke. My contract runs until 2013 - my agent looks after everything else."
Holtby, who has already been capped twice by his country, joined Schalke from Alemannia Aachen in 2009.

I know there are several similar questions to this on the community already but my question has a little extra twist to it. I have done a lot of research into Firewalls/UTMs in the past three years, looking at all the Linux based and open source options. I work for a school and with the number of staff and students some of these projects actually proved quite expensive. So two years ago I purchased a Sonicwall NSA240 with a three year subscription to all services for a crazy price of around $3000NZD. Just recently, we added another zone to the school network which contains 9 IP based security cameras. This security camera network is completely separate to the school network. However, a LAN based user can connect to the IP Camera server via the firewall to view archive footage. When a user does this the Sonicwall multicore CPU runs at about 90% on both cores [it is a little busy]. Logged a call with Sonicwall and after two hours they confirmed that the NSA240 wasn't up to the task. Now, I can obviously buy a bigger better, faster Sonicwall or I can look at all my options again. We have one LAN port, two WAN zones, One security camera zones, one DMZ and my testing zone so the basic one port lan, one port wan firewall is not an option. I want all ports to be gigabit. The throughput needs to handle the IP cameras and about 1500 users surfing the net at the same time. Do I buy an appliance or run a dedicated server with gigbit network cards? I can obviously look at the likes of PFSense but I worry about the lack of UTM features like AV. Any suggestions?

I would look into Zyxel. their Zywall UTM devices are great. From the USG-300 onwards all ports are configurable, you can use ipsec von or other vpn. they are Gigabit. you also get free firmware upgrades for life, not like paying extra for that by many manufacturers, or a nice expensive service contract. i think they offer a 5 year warranty on their products. you can also purchase content filtering, idp and AV.
let us know what you will be doing.

I don't know about PFSense, but many of the UTM linux distros, have AV options. Untangle for instance allows you to use ClamAV, or you can buy a subscription to a commercial one. ClearOS has similar options. These are meant to be edge device routers that support full UTM features. And you can get hardware that can handle a lot more and throw this in a lot cheaper that buying UTM dedicated device. That said I do prefer the dedicated box method (i.e. a dedicated router designed for it) when economically possible.

We have been looking at Palo-Alto firewalls. They are more expensive than the NSA2400 boxes we are using, but appear to be much much better from the standpoint of being able classify traffic and processing packets.
But, I am wondering if the problem you are facing could be prevented if you turned off IPS, AV and Anti-spyware for traffic to/from the video archive box. You can do this through an exclusion list. The firewall is having to real-time scan that stream and I can see where that might put quite a load on it. Just a thought.
Nov 11, 2011 at 2:22 UTC
Check Astaro very good solution.
Run very good on Vmware.
Nov 13, 2011 at 2:43 UTC
Thanks for the replies. The Palo Alto is a fabulous firewall, however, a little pricey for a school. Astaro is also a lovely unit. I looked at it last time and the cost was 4 times that of the Sonicwall. Currently, looking at the Zywall. Thanks for the replies.
Nov 13, 2011 at 2:50 UTC
If you want to see what the menus look like and the setup of a Zywall, take a look at htis site:
they have a virtual firewall for the usg 200 so you can see what it looks like and what is possible with it.
Nov 13, 2011 at 2:56 UTC
Thanks Marcelo. The USG300 looks a little underpowered the website indicates an UTM throughput of 80Mbps whereas our Sonicwall is 600Mbps [and that ain't cutting the mustard at present]
Nov 13, 2011 at 3:21 UTC
just as an example it was meant to show you what their menu structure is like. There usg-1000 and usg-2000 are quite pricey but the lifetime firmware upgrades that would otherwise cost a lot, are free. i would try and find a reseller and see if they can let you play with one for some time, there technical support is also great, when needed.
Lets us know what you end up getting.

When this book first came out, my initial attraction to it was the beautiful cover. It's collection of seashells seemingly quite pretty and innocent at first until you notice the bloody tooth lurking in the bottom corner which makes it suddenly even more intriguing, although I never did get round to reading it then. You shouldn't always judge a book by its cover but in this case, the cover speaks volumes of how brilliant the story that lies within really is.
The Shore is a collection of small islands of the Virginia coast line that has been home to generations of brave and resilient women and their families for generations. This novel is comprised of interconnecting short stories that link the generations of two families that live on the island and their stories will shock and captivate you from first to last.
Each story is basically a chapter. The first story tells of a young girl who does her best to protect her younger sister after their mother has left and their dead-beat dad leaves them to pretty much fend for themselves. It's not a particularly long story but the ending packs a punch and really sets the tone for the continuing tales.
Family and relationships is a strong theme throughout the book, especially parental and children bonds, and sibling ties too. Most of the focus is on the women of the island, some of whom endure all sorts such as domestic violence, drug use and bereavement, which really gives an insight into that character and how they deal with the situation they are in.
There are characters to love and characters to hate and all the shades in between. I loved how the familial linkage between characters runs throughout the stories and really enjoyed reading how the past affects the future.
As well as covering a wide base of themes, the book also covers a broad spectrum of time, with stories starting in the 1800s and going right into the far future that none of us living today will ever see. The future world that Sara Taylor portrays is a bit scary and unnerving but I loved the creativity that it showed.
Being set in one location, you get a strong sense of the place and by the end, I felt like I had been a former resident of The Shore myself, and that some of the characters who you learn so much about could have been people I know.
Usually with short stories, I can pick an out and out favourite but with this book, with them being so closely linked and each one unique, I was thoroughly engrossed with every one and couldn't choose one over the other as the best.
Addictive, breath-taking and so intelligently written, The Shore is a worthy addition to the Young Writer Award 2015 shortlist and I think this may even be one of my favourite books of the year.

Hall of Fame coach John Kundla, who led Lakers to 5 NBA titles, dies at 101
MINNEAPOLIS -- Before Phil Jackson and Pat Riley, before Gregg Popovich and Larry Brown, even before Red Auerbach, there was John Kundla.
Kundla, the Hall of Fame coach who led the Minneapolis Lakers to five NBA championships, died Sunday. He was 101.
Son Tom Kundla said his father died at an assisted living facility in Northeast Minneapolis that he called home for years.
With George Mikan in the middle and Kundla the calm, steady hand directing the team, the Lakers won the 1949 championship in the BAA, the league that preceded the NBA, and NBA titles in 1950 and 1952-54, cementing the franchise's place as the league's first true dynasty. The Lakers also won an NBL title in 1948, but NBL marks are not included in the NBA's records.
Jeanie Buss, Lakers team president and co-owner, honored Kundla on Sunday night as someone who "played an important role in the history of the Lakers organization."
"Not only was he a Hall of Fame coach, he was our first head coach and led the organization to five NBA championships," Buss said in a statement. "In addition to his numerous contributions to the Lakers and our legacy, John was a wonderful man and will be remembered fondly. Our deepest condolences, thoughts and prayers go out to the Kundla family."
The Lakers also tweeted a tribute to Kundla earlier Sunday.
Kundla was the oldest living Hall of Famer in any of the four major pro sports.
Kundla was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1995. A year later, he was named one of the league's 10 greatest coaches as part of the league's "NBA at 50" celebration.
He was hired at 31 and resigned at 42 with a career record of 423-302, happy to cede the attention and the accolades to his players over himself. He was known for his understated sideline demeanor, which was unique compared to the fiery drill sergeants of the era.
Letters from afar: U.S. soldier thanks her former pen pal -- Larry Nance Jr. -- with Twitter post
It's always fun when you come across things that you wrote when you were a kid.
On Saturday, Larry Nance Jr. was reminded of a string of letters he wrote to a U.S. soldier when he was just 10 years old. The letter exchange was part of a pen pal program that matched students with soldiers overseas.
In her tweet, U.S. soldier Bianca Snow told Nance, now 24, that his letters had always meant a lot to her and that she is glad "his dreams came true."
Not only did the young Nance make his interest in basketball clear in his letters, but he also specifically noted that he liked the Los Angeles Lakers, the team that drafted him No. 27 overall in the 2015 NBA draft. In one letter, Nance wrote (typos included):
Dear U.S. Soldier.
Is the war almost over? Where is Saddam? How are you? I'm fine. Thank you for writing back. Where are you?
Are you good at basketball? I like the Lakers too they are wining there series with the Timberwolves. Who is your favorite player? Mine is Shaq. Who do you want to get LeBron James? I want the Cavs to get LeBron, that is because my dad played for the Cavs. His number is retired in the Gund Arena.
And Again Thank you!!
Larry Nance
Surprised by the fact that Snow had saved the letters all these years, Nance was quick to reciprocate his appreciation.
Hopefully, the two old friends can meet for the first time face to face this upcoming NBA season.

LaVar Ball gets tech, forfeits game after pulling AAU team off court
LaVar Ball pulled his Big Ballers AAU team off the court during a game Saturday after he was whistled for a technical foul for arguing a foul call and uttering a profanity toward a referee.
The incident occurred during a playoff game at the Double Pump Best of Summer Tournament in Anaheim, California. The game was ruled a forfeit, giving the victory to the opposing team.
Ball's team, which includes his youngest son, LaMelo, was winning 69-60 at the time of the forfeit, according to USA Today Sports.
The father of Los Angeles Lakers rookie Lonzo Ball disputed a foul that was called as one of his players went for a steal along the sideline. Immediately after the whistle, Ball repeated, "That's not a foul. That's not a foul. That's not a foul."
Then, in an apparent reference to an official who Ball felt was out of position, he said, "He came way over here to call that bulls---."
After being issued a technical, Ball motioned toward his players on the court and bench and said, "Let's go." Ball and his players proceeded to grab their gear and leave the court.
In a video posted by Overtime, Ball can be heard saying outside the gym afterward, "It's not about the referee. I'm not gonna have my guys playing hard, and they're cheating. I don't play that s---."
Ball has been no stranger to controversy this year. He recently got into a war of words with Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid, who was fined $10,000 by the NBA for directing an obscenity at Ball on social media. Ball quickly fired back at Embiid, saying, "You gotta use cuss words when you don't have no intellect."
Would LaVar squash a Ball-Jenner romance?

Pelton mailbag: How much can summer league predict stardom?
This week's mailbag features your questions on the effectiveness of playing with multiple point guards at the same time, changing NBA position names, the value of spending early in free agency and more.
You can tweet your questions using the hashtag #peltonmailbag or email them to email@example.com.
"What can summer-league top draft performances indicate about their future stardom? Given Kyle Kuzma's overall game in the summer league, is it fair to say he is the biggest draft steal so far?" - Amir
This year, more than any I can remember, there has been great interest in just what summer league means, with many readers revisiting my 2013 piece on the topic. With the help of RealGM.com's incredible database of summer stats, I figured it was time to revisit the question with a much larger sample than the single summer's worth of data I used then. And it turns out one of my key takeaways was the result of a small sample.
I noted then that performance in summer league during 2012 was much more predictive of 2012-13 NBA performance for rookies than for veteran players, and was able to concoct a plausible explanation in terms of the effort level of the respective groups. But looking at the larger data set, 2012-13 was an outlier.
Rumor Central: Could Ian Clark land with Lakers?
The Los Angeles Lakers still have two open roster spots to fill and management -- Magic Johnson and Rob Pelinka -- are looking to add depth in the backcourt.
On Thursday, Derrick Rose met with the Lakers and according to the Los Angeles Daily News, so did Golden State Warriors free-agent Ian Clark.
Rose is the Lakers' top backcourt target right now and they can offer him all of their $4.32 million "Room" exception. Rose is also drawing a lot of interest from the Cleveland Cavaliers. While the Cavaliers can only offer a veteran minimum contract, Rose would be playing for a team strongly favored to once again make it to the NBA Finals.
Clark, an unrestricted free-agent, has played for the Warriors the last two years, however they don't have room on their roster for him. Also, his salary demands are likely too much for the Warriors to match due to their projected high tax bill in 2018.
Clark would fill a need for the Lakers as he can make long-range shots. In 2016-17, Clark converted 37.4 percent of his attempts from behind the 3-point line.
According to Mark Medina, Clark is also drawing interest from the Milwaukee Bucks, Minnesota Timberwolves and New Orleans Pelicans.

Sources: Derrick Rose talks deal with Cavs, meets with Lakers
Free-agent point guard Derrick Rose is in serious talks with the Cleveland Cavaliers to join the defending Eastern Conference champions on a one-year contract, sources told ESPN on Thursday.
While those talks continue, Rose also met with the Los Angeles Lakers on Thursday, sources told ESPN's Chris Haynes and Ramona Shelburne. Sources told Haynes the meeting with the Lakers lasted three hours.
The former No. 1 draft pick has met with several teams over the past three weeks, including the Milwaukee Bucks and LA Clippers, but he has gained momentum on a deal with the Cavs in the past several days, sources said.
Rose is expected to have a face-to-face meeting with the Cavaliers in the coming days, league sources told ESPN.
He is not expected to make a decision until next week.
Playing on a contender is important to Rose. If he agrees to a deal in Cleveland, it would also allow him to be closer to family in Chicago.
The Cavs are believed to be offering Rose a minimum contract for $2.1 million for the upcoming season to play with Kyrie Irving in the team's backcourt. Adding Rose in this manner would add $6.4 million to the team's luxury tax bill for next season, which would be a projected $78.2 million.
The Lakers are trying to entice Rose to sign with them, suggesting they can offer more playing time and money in a better environment after Rose's tumultuous 2016-17 season with the New York Knicks, sources said.
Los Angeles thinks Rose, who has been working out at the Lakers' practice facility lately, can help the development of rookie point guard Lonzo Ball

Magic Johnson says summer league showed Lakers are 'already better'
EL SEGUNDO, Calif. -- Magic Johnson believes Lonzo Ball's triple-doubles in summer league were just a preview of more to come.
"You can see that. If he's getting triple-doubles in the summer league, he is going to get triple-doubles in the regular season," Johnson said. "Just like me, when I got here, there was pressure. I was the No. 1 pick [in 1979]. I didn't care about that. I am going to play my game. Lonzo is going to play his game. The great ones do."
Johnson, the Los Angeles Lakers' president of basketball operations, spoke Tuesday after the team introduced free-agent acquisition Kentavious Caldwell-Pope.
Johnson praised the way Ball impacts the game and his teammates as a point guard. Johnson, a Hall of Fame point guard, said he sees some similarities between Ball and himself in how they play.
"Lonzo is special, no question about it, because he makes everyone better," Johnson said. "He does something you can't teach. He gives you a scoring pass. Very few point guards in this league can do that. I am talking about giving you a pass that leads to the score, not just passing it to you.
"I like him because he also is now a great teammate. He has a special effect on people."
"I think it is the same in terms of the basketball IQ," Johnson added, about what he and Ball have in common. "What is lacking in our game is a guy that can create a shot for somebody else. That is why Golden State
Kings play prank on Lakers fans, ask about rookies that don't exist
Lonzo Ball was the star of summer league, as evidenced by his MVP performance that helped the Los Angeles Lakers win the Las Vegas Summer League title, but he isn't the only purple and gold rookie making headwinds.
There are also rookies Shawn Carter and Ned Stark, both of whom are showing their skills on the court.
We all know that Lakers fans are fiercely loyal, but the Sacramento Kings pulled a fast one on them, asking them what they think about Carter and Stark, who don't exist.
The Kings may have stumped Lakers fans this time, but by the looks of Ball in the summer league, perhaps the Lakers will get the last laugh. In retaliation, maybe the Lakers video department can bring back old footage of the last Sacramento Kings championship.
That one might take a while to find.

What a game in Greensboro! Boston College shot a lethal 67% in the first half and only held a one point advantage heading into the half. Even more shocking than that stat is the fact that Boston College was down in the final minute of the first half and didn't grab the lead until Jared Dudley and Tyrese Rice made three's within the last 30 seconds of the half. North Carolina went on a 8-2 run to end the game but it wasn't enough as Boston College escaped with a 85 to 82 victory to advance to the ACC Finals tomorrow afternoon.
Boston College was led by the stellar play of senior forward Craig Smith who started off game 7-8 from field and finished with 23 points and a game high 14 boards, Dudley who had 21 points on an efficient 8 for 11 from the field and Louis Hinnant who set a career high with seven dimes.
Following the game Boston College head coach Al Skinner told ESPN reporters that, "the thing about it is he's a senior, he's had a lot of success and he's tried to put his mark on the Boston College basketball program."
When asked about Louis Hinnant and his career high seven dimes, Skinner told reporters that, "he's the brain trust on the floor. He's helping everybody and he's given tremendous leadership and it just works for our club."
Tyler Hansbrough, Wes Miller and Reyshawn Tayler had big games but all three of these players saw their games slip in the second half and as these players faltered so did their team. Hansbrough had a 13 points and 8 boards in the first half but cooled off to finish with 23 points and 10 boards, Miller went 4 for 4 from the field last game and started the game 3 for 3 (six of those were three's) and Terry was slowed by foul trouble in the second half. These three players are poised for huge games in the Tournament next week but they will need to play two solid halves for North Carolina to advance.
An interesting note that came up during the game was that David Noel could come back to Chapel Hill next year as a football player. Noel was heavily recruited as the next Randy Moss but decided to play hoops instead. The choice was a great one as he was able to pick up a National Championship last season, something he wouldn't have done playing with the football team. According to Dick Vitale, Noel has one year of eligibility left and he has talked about returning to play football for a year if he doesn't get drafted by a NBA team this summer.

More than 70,000 travelers have been stranded after British Airways cancelled all flights at London Heathrow. The move was necessary after a dispute between the airline and Gate Gourmet, which provides catering for aircraft. That dispute led baggage handlers and ground staff to walk off in sympathy. In turn, 100 aircraft and 1,000 pilots were not where they needed to be, leading to, basically, chaos at Heathrow. The situation will continue through today.. Qantas and Sri Lankan flights were also cancelled.

Six Quad-City women who have excelled in their careers while making a difference in their communities have been selected as the recipients of the 2011 Athena Awards.
This year's recipients are Julie Bechtel, publisher of the Quad-City Times; Denise Bulat, executive director of Bi-State Regional Commission; Sister Joan Lescinski, president of St. Ambrose University; Caroline Ruhl, president of Ruhl & Ruhl Realtors; Jackie Staron, president of River City Tire Co.; and Ginny Wilson-Peters, president of Integrity Integrated.
The Quad-Cities Chamber of Commerce and The Women's Connection jointly announced the 2011 recipients Thursday.
The winners will be honored at a noon luncheon March 22 at Jumer's Casino and Hotel, Rock Island. The awards are presented by Missman Stanley & Associates with sponsor support from MediaWork Productions, Venus Envy, IH Mississippi Valley Credit Union and Ashford University.
Colleen Rafferty, the executive director of The Women's Connection, said the local event has made a significant change this year, affiliating with Athena International to now present the Athena Leadership Awards. Local organizers aligned their event with the international organization after learning of the two group's similar missions. Athena International works "to support, develop and honor women leaders; to inspire women to achieve their full potential; and to create balance in leadership worldwide."
In the past, the Quad-City event presented the Athena Business Women Awards each year to several women. Under the new format modeled after the international, Rafferty said one Athena recipient will be selected from the six honorees.
Dianne Dinkel, president of Athena International, is expected to attend the Quad-City luncheon.
All past local Athena honorees will be retroactively inducted as Athena Award recipients. They will join the more than 6,000 Athena and Global Athena Leadership winners selected since 1982 in more than 500 communities in the United States, Canada, Russia, China, United Arab Emirates and the United Kingdom.
This year's Quad-City honorees were selected from more than 30 nominations by a committee made up of last year's Athenas. The Athena recipient is being chosen by a selection committee made up of chamber and Women's Connection representatives.
Honorees were selected on the following criteria: demonstrating excellence, creativity and initiative in her business or
profession; providing valuable service to improve the quality of life for others; and actively assisting other women to realize their full leadership potential.
Here is a closer look at the 2011 honorees:
Julie Bechtel: The publisher of the Quad-City Times since 2005, she began her newspaper career in 1987 at the Des Moines Register. Her career has included management positions with the Lawrence (Kan.) Journal World, the Lincoln (Neb.) Journal Star, and The Bismarck (N.D.) Tribune.
She is responsible for management of the Times, the Quad-City Business Journal, the commercial print operations — Trico and Hawkeye Printing, and several niche publications. Publishers from three other Lee Enterprises properties also report to Bechtel, including Muscatine (Iowa) Journal, Maysville (Ky.) Ledger Independent and Orangeburg (S.C.) Times and Democrat.
Her community involvement includes serving on the boards of Quad-Cities Chamber, United Way (2009 chairperson), YMCA, Quad-City Arts and Student Hunger Drive. She also is a Big Sister for a teenage girl through the Big Brothers/Big Sisters Program; a member of the Women's Leadership Council; and volunteered to assist the Girl Scouts' Night on Broadway event.
Tragedy struck Bechtel's family in 2009 when her infant granddaughter, Kennedi, died of SIDS. In memory of Kennedi, Bechtel started a non-profit called Kennedi's Kisses to help young couples suffering the loss of their baby with the financial burden of burying their child.
Julie and her husband, Rick, have two sons, Matt and Nate, and two grandchildren, Cole and Coy.
Denise Bulat: In a community the size and complexity of the Quad-Cities, it is a challenge to ensure all the parts operate in unison. That is what Bulat has strived to do for the past decade as executive director of the Bi-State Regional Commission.
In her role, she oversees 26 staff members and guides a 36-member commission that facilitates intergovernmental programs and supports the work of five counties and 43 municipalities in the bi-state region. Her work includes keeping current on legislation affecting local governments; organizing major transportation projects such as the I-74 bridge overhaul; promoting community economic development, environmental and health improvements; and facilitating communications and emergency management systems.
Her community involvement includes United Way — board member, campaign cabinet member and Women's Leadership Council steering committee and co-chair of the Advocacy Committee; and Quad-City Health Initiative, of which she is board chair). In addition, Bulat has volunteered with Junior Achievement, American Red Cross and Girl Scouts of Eastern Iowa and Western Illinois.
She and her husband, Carl, have two children, Kelsey and Corinne.
Sister Joan Lescinski: In 2007, she was selected as the 13th president of St. Ambrose University becoming the first woman to lead the university in its 125-year history.
She has taught and administered at the college level since 1974, including at the College of St. Rose in Albany, N.Y., Avila University in Kansas City, Mo., and Fontbonne University in St. Louis, Mo. Before coming to St. Ambrose, she was president and professor of English at St. Mary-of-the-Woods College in Indiana.
While at St. Ambrose, Lescinski led the groundbreaking of the new health sciences building, and has introduced several new undergraduate and graduate academic programs. She regularly hosts student groups at her home, cooking for them and engaging them in making St. Ambrose better.
Her other community involvement includes: Putnam Museum board of directors; Quad-Cities Chamber; and Quad-City First board of directors. In addition, she serves on the boards of the College of St. Rose in New York and and Marymount College in California, the Council of Independent Colleges President's Association; the Midwest Modern Language Association; and the Association for Religion and Intellectual Life.
She has been a member of the Sisters of St. Joseph of Carondelet, St. Louis, Mo., since 1965.
Caroline Ruhl: Since 1997, Ruhl has served as president of Ruhl & Ruhl Realtors, one of the largest women-owned businesses in Iowa. Under her leadership, the company has more than doubled revenues and expanded its market reach in eastern Iowa including in Cedar Rapids, Muscatine, Dubuque, Clinton and DeWitt.
Ruhl began her career at Rockwell International, serving in a variety of management and human resources positions. She joined Ruhl & Ruhl in 1980, eventually serving as the head of the relocation department, manager of the Quad-Cities Real Estate Relocation Center, and the company's Bettendorf office manager. She is the fourth generation of Ruhls to lead the company and one of only a handful of women chief executive officers at the top 150 real estate companies.
Under her leadership, the firm ranks 102nd of more than 8,000 real estate companies in the U.S. and ranks first among large brokers in per agent productivity. Her other community involvement includes: Quad-Cities Chamber of Commerce board of directors, Women's Leadership Council steering committee; and the Realty Alliance board of directors. Previously, she served as the first female chair of the DavenportOne board and on the Scott County Family Y and Junior Achievement boards of directors. Ruhl was the first woman member of the Davenport Club board of directors.
She is married to John Thompsons, and has two sons, Chris and John.
Jackie Staron: A leader in historically male-dominated fields of automotive and manufacturing, Staron began her career at Chicago Tube and Iron in Milan, serving as tubular product manager. In 1987, she joined River City Tire Co., Davenport, working in office management and sales. In 1989, she became co-owner and president. Under her leadership, it has grown from a struggling business to the thriving, full-service tire and automotive company.
Many regional women have benefited from Staron's free, female-focused car care clinics. She also devoted countless hours to volunteer causes that support women. She is chairwomen of Family Resource's DOVE (Domestic Violence Ended) "Fill the Truck" event, which supports mothers and their children in shelters. Staron also serves on the DOVE Golf Outing Planning Committee, which raises funds to support awareness of domestic violence.
Her other community involvement includes: Fellowship of Christian Athletes board of directors; Our Lady of Victory Church; and North High School's music and athletic booster programs.
She and her husband, Gene, have two children, Sarah and Shaun.
Ginny Wilson-Peters: With a career that began as a CPA at McGladrey and Pullen, Wilson-Peters moved on to be chief financial officer and then president of Midland Press Corp. While there, she was honored as one of the top 40 presidents of U.S. printing companies under the age of 40.
She left the corporate world to pursue her dream — ownership of Integrity Integrated, a leadership development company with national and international clients. She also serves as an adjunct faculty member for the University of Iowa's Evening MBA Program and International Executive MBA Program in Hong Kong.
Her community involvement includes: Child Abuse Council, Family Resources Iowa, Women's Leadership Steering Committee and the Quad-Cities American Heart Association Go Red for Women movement. In 2010, she served as executive chair of the Go Red for Women Luncheon, which raised nearly $100,000 for research and heart health education. She previously served on the Quad-Cities Health Initiative board and United Way Women's Leadership Council.
She is married to Greg Peters and has two stepchildren, Makaila and Brice Peters.

Hello all! I've had great luck finding good food through chowhound for other cities...now I am headed to the SD area in May 2013 and have a few questions about local food.
We will be staying in the La Jolla area, but driving is not really an issue. We have a few day trips planned everywhere from the SD area to the LA area.
I have a few questions...
1. Local fruit. Are there any orchards anywhere around that we could go to find fresh citrus, figs, and any other fruits that will be ready in May? It might sound silly, but being from Canada I've never seen an actual citrus tree so that's one thing I want to do.
2. Related to the above, are there any good farmers markets to check out or vendors specializing in fruit?
3. What about restaurant food...anyone have any suggestions? I like a lot of different kinds of food, especially asian and indian influenced food, and my wife is into seafood, but we like a lot of things, and our 2 kids are relatively adventurous. What would you recommend to someone from out of town? Where is there good mexican food? Good BBQ? Good fusion or California cuisine? Anything else that's interesting? I hope this question isn't too open ended.
4. Stores. We booked a kitchenette suite, so where are your favorite places to go for groceries and produce (other than farmers markets?) I definitely intend to hit up a Trader Joe's since I've heard so much about it. Also planning to hit a few farmers markets, looks like there is one downtown on Sun/Wed and another one closer to La Jolla on Tuesday.
We will be traveling as far as the LA area as well, so any Southern California recommendations will be gladly entertained!
Looking forward to any suggestions anyone might have!

What is Cable Modem that is to be used with Airport Express?
I want to know about cable modem used with Airport Express,is it really neccessary?
Where should I connect the other end of the modem?(the first one will go to the ethernet port of the Airport Express)
Please Help............

AirPort Express Base Station with 802.11n
Product No Longer Available
2 Answers from the Community
Best Answer:
No, a modem of any kind is not necessary for the AirPort Express Base Station to be used, unless you want internet access as part of your network.
The Express will create a wireless network so that up to ten of your wireless devices can communicate with one another. You can also connect the Express to an existing Ethernet network (without needing a modem) so that you can have an instant wireless network connecting to all devices on the Ethernet network.
In addition, while traveling many also use the Express at locations where they can get the Express to join an existing Ethernet network so that they can handily use a wireless computer or other devices without being tightly tethered to a wall receptacle which is not conveniently located.
If at your location you have a modem or cable modem that is connected to your internet service provider, connect the modem's Ethernet cable to the Express's Ethernet port.
A cable modem is provided by an internet service provider that uses coaxial cable to bring its service to the interior of your location. A cable modem is not used if your internet service provider does not install its service with coaxial cable, but instead uses telephone cable. In either case, they usually provide you with the correct modem as part of their service.
- Answered by Andrew H from Carmel
If you wish to use the Airport Express to share an internet connection in your building, a cable modem is required to "translate" the internet signals from your cable internet provider to a format your Airport Express can understand. The cable modem should be provided by your internet provider, and you would connect the other end to a cable outlet (the same ones you hook a TV up to). If you already have another router installed or you do not wish to share an internet connection it is not required.

Talented Canberra junior Dimitri Morogiannis will adopt the "nothing to lose" attitude of good mate Nick Kyrgios after receiving a wildcard into the qualifying stages of the $75,000 ATP Challenger tournament at the Canberra Tennis Centre.
The 16-year-old will leave everything on the court on Saturday in his bid to progress to the main draw starting on Monday.
Morogiannis broke through for his first senior ITF event last year and is aiming to secure a wildcard into the junior Australian Open.
He trains with Kyrgios when he returns home, learning the ropes from one of the world's rising tennis stars.
"Before he left we had a chat and he says you've just got to relax out there because if you're nervous that takes a lot of energy out of you," Morogiannis said.
"Just enjoy it, you've got nothing to lose.
"It's that attitude and just go for gold."
Kyrgios, 20, made a brilliant start to his Australian summer with an impressive victory against Great Britain's Andy Murray at the Hopman Cup this week.
The world No 30 is poised to shake off criticism of his behaviour and show why he has long been touted as a future Grand Slam champion.
His rise from promising Canberra junior to emerging superstar has provided plenty of inspiration for Morogiannis.
The teenager wants to take pieces of the way Kyrgios plays and carries himself on the court into his own game.
"He makes it his court, he's in control of everything, he does what he wants tennis-wise," Morogiannis said.
"He doesn't let the opponent play him around.
"I've just got to play my game, play aggressive, play to win and see what happens."
The Canberra $75,000 ATP Challenger event has attracted a high-quality field featuring 10 players ranked inside the top 100 in the world.
Italian veteran Paolo Lorenzi is the highest-ranked player at No 68 in the world, while Spaniard Marcel Granollers will be looking to get back inside the top 20 having reached as high as 19th in the rankings.
The tournament provides the perfect preparation to the Australian Open and is the highest-profile event to be held at the redeveloped Canberra Tennis Centre.
"It means a lot because you have all of these players in your home town," Morogiannis said.
"It's good experience for me because I'm sure I'll be playing in these tournaments later on.
"I'm stoked they gave me a wildcard into qualifying so I can experience this early and be better when I'm older."
Entry to the Canberra $75,000 ATP Challenger event is free.
Qualifying will be held on Saturday and Sunday with the matches in the main draw starting on Monday.
The order of play will be posted late on Friday night at http://www.tennis.com.au/tournaments/pro-tournaments/australian-pro-tour/canberra-2.

Basil is either an annual or short-lived perennial flowering plant native to many parts of Europe and Asia. It produces many leaf colors, from dark to light green and from pale lavender to almost black-purple. White spots on the leaf may be benign, or may signal a cultural problem.
White Insects
Colonies of tiny insects or even individual insects on basil leaves give them a spotty white appearance. Thrips are tiny insects the size and shape of a comma, and they're usually found individually on the leaves, often folding the basil leaves over themselves for protection from predators. Mites leave white webbing on the undersurface of the leaves. Aphid juveniles are often white, and may gather in colonies. Whiteflies congregate around the leaves, and fly up in a cloud when the plant is disturbed. Mealy bugs are white, cottony insects that congregate on the leaves and stems. All of these insects suck the juices from basil leaves, and most can be controlled by drenching the plant in insecticidal soap.
White Fungus
Powdery mildew is a common problem with basil planted in areas with low light, low circulation and cool evening temperatures. It starts with patches or circles of white to gray powdery substance on the leaves, and can spread so that the leaves look as though they're completely covered with white dust. Oil sprays and copper fungicides work well for heavy powdery mildew infestation.
Natural Variegation
Some cultivars of basil, such as "Pesto Perpetuo" basil (Ocimum x citriodorum) have natural variegation, or spots of white on the otherwise green leaves. In these cases, the white should be on just about all of the leaves, and ought to follow a pattern. If the white areas all start to discolor or disfiguration of the leaf accompanies them, it is likely not variegation, but a disease or insect problem.
Prevent most problems with basil, including both insect and fungal problems, with good cultural practices. Basil prefers light soil high in organic matter with good drainage, and plenty of ventilation and sunshine to discourage fungi and sheltered spots for insects. Adding fertilizers causes bursts of succulent or leafy growth that attracts both insects and fungi to come and feed on the new, relatively unprotected leaves.

Tablets are a hot topic at Mobile World Congress this year, and Acer is getting on the bandwagon with the Iconia Tab A500.
The super-slim Iconia Tab clocks in with a girth of just 13.3mm and will run Android 3.0 Honeycomb, Google's tablet-optimised OS that we first saw on the Motorola Xoom launched at CES. Acer however will load its own interface on top, much as its Android handsets feature a custom skin and widgets. Design wise, it has taken a leaf from the iPad's book with a sleek aluminium casing and high gloss finish engraved with subtle texturing.
Multimedia is the main highlight of the tablet, which sports a high-res capacitive 10.1-inch touch-screen with wide viewing angle so that you can view media from almost any angle without losing colour accuracy. It'll also be preloaded with Acer's clear.fi media sharing tech, which allows you to wirelessly share content between the Iconia and your home devices.
Via the HDMI port, you can output content at a full high-resolution 1080p for high-def viewing on a bigger screen.
The dual-core NVIDIA Tegra 2 chip should pony up faster web browsing, crisp graphics and smooth 3D, HD gaming as well as HD media playback.
Other specs include an HD front-facing camera for video calling, as well a five-megapixel back-side snapper which also be used as a barcode scanner. It's Wi-Fi and HSDPA enabled for all-rounded internet connectivity.
The Acer Iconia Tab will be available from April, with pricing TBC.

She was a star at a young age and hanging around Hollywood perverted her values. Hanging around with all those queer movie stars I believe she became a fag hag. Perhaps the fruit men she hung around with were easier for her to talk with and she didnt have to compete with them as she did the slut wannabee star women.
She didnt have much of a family life. She lived in a fantasy world .
Definitely one of the worlds most beautiful women at one time.
I don't think that's true. She has 4 children, 1 of whom she and Richard Burton adopted. She became involved with AIDS when her former daughter-in-law contracted tbe disease due to drug problems. I think she had a very rich family life, in terms of motherhood. And I think she experienced so much tragedy that you can't fairly say she was sheltered from reality. Her life took some bizarre twists, but she lived life fully, getting the very best and very worst that a person can experience.

Helping students to achieve comprehension of subject matter appears as one of the aims of schooling that is beyond dispute. However, the development of a somewhat opposed capability, awareness of unknowns or of not having understood, is increasingly considered an important educational aim as well. In fact, knowing when one does not know is regarded as fundamental for such educationally relevant activities as question generation. It is also possible to find in the literature a long history of researchers who have advocated learning environments that support inquiry learning and the acquisition of self-regulated strategies. Nevertheless, previous research identified the scarceness of questions asked by students in normal classroom, and that most of the questions asked are shallow. The Open Course Ware Pupils Questions in Science Education aims to contribute to the characterization of pupils questioning and conscious unknowns in different pedagogical contexts, to characterize quality criteria for pupils questions, to describe pupils and teachers' perceptions about why do (or do not pupils) ask questions in class and to analyze how to promote pupils questioning in class. The course is structured in modules. Along the modules, participants will learn to analyze pupils' questions according to the taxonomies proposed, to identify quality criteria of pupils' questions, to characterize the process of questioning and strategies to promote it. The course also aims to contribute to the professional development of teachers through collaborative work and educational research on the topic. Participants in the open course will be involved in the development of a research about pupils' questioning and actively participate gathering and analyzing data and discussion the results. The format of the OCW will allow the inclusion of diverse type of methods, namely: i) taped lectures on key topics; ii) online seminars and workshops on practical aspects as questions classification; iii) planning of pedagogical contexts that promote questioning. Some tasks and activities will be developed autonomously and individually.
