Despite all the headlines, it's easy to forget that San Diego is in the midst of an obesity crisis. The 30-year evolution of this epidemic has disguised our gradual transition from healthy weight to obesity, leaving most Americans to believe the extra weight we carry is normal. It is not.
Right here in San Diego, three out of five adults are overweight or obese, a condition shared by nearly a quarter of our children. Obesity-related chronic diseases like diabetes, hypertension and heart disease are expected to outpace tobacco as the number one cause of preventable death. Less than 10 percent of Californians currently have diabetes. And yet, unless we curb the obesity epidemic it is expected that one-third of all children born in the year 2000 or later will develop diabetes some time in their lives. The epidemic is already costing California $52 billion annually in health care costs and lost productivity.
Children are suffering from diseases once thought to afflict only adults and obesity-related conditions are leading to skyrocketing health care costs. This is a crisis, and like any crisis, it calls for action. Senate Bill 622, the Sweetened Beverage Tax presently being debated in Sacramento, while not the only solution, is a key tool in the battle against childhood obesity and diabetes.
Why a sweetened beverage tax? First, it is critical that people understand the central and unique role sugary beverages play in driving this crisis. Soda and other sugar-sweetened drinks are the single leading contributor to the obesity epidemic. These beverages alone have contributed 40 percent of the new calories consumed by Americans since the obesity crisis began. Today, the average American drinks 42 gallons of these beverages a year, adding 39 pounds of sugar to their diet. For every additional soda children drink, their risk for obesity increases by 60 percent. According to the latest research, drinking two cans of soda a day for just two weeks leads to increases in cholesterol and other contributors to heart disease and diabetes.
If the soda tax can curb consumption of these unhealthy products or drive consumers to healthier, less sugary drinks, SB 622 merits serious consideration.
Second, the soda tax would serve an even more important and lasting purpose. By levying a penny an ounce tax on sugary drinks, SB 622 will generate $1.7 billion a year to fund nutrition education, park and recreation programs, physical education and healthy school meals. Just as the gasoline tax pays to repair roads, this soda tax will pay to repair some of the damage caused by sugary drinks.
Current public outreach and education campaigns are already working. Among children, where most nutrition campaigns have been centered, obesity rates are tapering off, as noted in UCLA's 2011 Patchwork of Progress study. Local efforts are having a real impact, with San Diego's childhood overweight rates dropping an impressive 3.7 percent in the past five years. Imagine the potential if these campaigns had the funding they need to broaden their reach.
The success of these types of programs show that government health policies can play an important role in helping parents understand and reduce the risks of obesity in their children. Consider the positive impact of public health policies such as child labor laws, car seat requirements, age restrictions on the purchase of alcohol and cigarettes, removing soda and junk food from school campuses and getting lead out of paint. Let's think about where the health of our children would be today without these broad reaching policies.
Finally, the soda tax responds to the demands of voters. While opponents point to the defeat of similar measures at the city level, they conveniently ignore a recent and authoritative public opinion poll. This February, a Field Poll found 68 percent of California voters supported a sugar-sweetened beverage tax if funds are dedicated to obesity prevention programs, as they are in SB 622.
We agree with those who say obesity is a complex issue, but we also know that any wise strategy starts by tackling the biggest source of the problem. The Sweetened Beverage Tax does just that and offers a way to begin to take control of the runaway obesity epidemic.

Double Your Pleasure
Posted on Thursday, April 10, 2014 at 3:42 PM
With earnings season just kicking off once again, it might be a good time to talk about a subject that is brought up quite often in MTM Group Coaching and Online Education and is often debated by option traders learning to trade advanced strategies; double calendars vs. double diagonals.
Double Calendars vs. Double Diagonals Both double calendars and double diagonals have the same fundamental structure; each is short option contracts in nearby expirations and long option contracts in farther out expirations in equal numbers. As implied by the name, this complex spread is comprised of two different spreads. These time spreads (aka known as horizontal spreads and calendar spreads) occur at two different strike prices. Each of the two individual spreads, in both the double calendar and the double diagonal, is constructed entirely of puts or calls. But the either position can be constructed of puts, calls, or both puts and calls. The structure for each of both double calendars or double diagonals thus consists of four different, two long and two short, options. These spreads are commonly traded as "long double calendars" and "long double diagonals" in which the long-term options in the spread (those with greater value) are purchased, and the short-term ones are sold. The profit engine that drives both the long double calendar and the long double diagonal is the differential decay of extrinsic (time) premium between shorter dated and longer dated options. The main difference between double calendars and double diagonals is the placement of the long strikes. In the case of double calendars, the strikes of the short and long contracts are identical. In a double diagonal, the strikes of the long contracts are placed farther out-of-the-money) OTM than the short strikes.
Why should an option trader complicate his or her life with these two similar structures? The reason traders implement double calendars and double diagonals is the position response to changes in IV; in optionspeak, the vega of the position. Both trades are vega positive, theta positive, and delta neutral—presuming the price of the underlying lies between the two middle strike prices—over the range of profitability. However, the double calendar positions, because of placement of the long strikes closer to ATM responds favorably more rapidly to increases in IV while the double diagonal responds more slowly. Conversely, decreases in IV of the long positions impacts negatively double calendars more strongly than it does double diagonals.
In future writings, the selection of strike prices and position management based on the volatility of the stock will be discussed. In addition, other option strategies will be introduced and guidelines will be discussed to help the trader select among these similar strategies when considering trades and alternatives.

My parents have a drinking problem, but every time I try to talk about it they say I shouldn't worry and they're getting help. Who can I talk to?
– Nicholas*
Having a parent with a drinking problem or other addiction can be extremely tough. Alcohol and other addictions affect everyone in a family — but sometimes parents don't realize this.
Even when parents are getting the help they need, sons and daughters have their own questions, concerns, emotions, and needs to sort through. Talking about all this with someone — whether it's a friend, counselor, or religious leader — is a healthy thing to do.
Alateen is an international resource for people in your situation. They can offer support, including meetings where you can talk with other teens who are going through the same thing. They also have a newsletter, AlateenTalk, where you can get the views of people your age.

Notwithstanding the Black Friday ad for Wal Mart, the hottest piece of fresh produce news this morning is the USDA's fall crop production estimate for potatoes.
It is a less thrilling version of Black Friday for the potato industry. The report shows that fall potato output is 422 million hundredweight, up from 391 million cwt. in 2011. Both projected yields and acreage are up, the USDA estimate reveals. Yields of 426 cwt. per acre are up from 416 cwt. per acre a year ago, and fall potato acreage in the U.S. is 991,500 acres, up from 939,000 acres a year ago.
The big production numbers are reflected in weak f.o.b. markets, with 50 pound cartons of 40 count to 70 count Idaho russet Burbank potatoes at $5.50 to $6 Nov. 8. That compares with about $10 per carton the same time a year ago and $15-16 per carton the same time two years ago. Retail pricing of potatoes should provide plenty of strong bargains for consumers for months to come.
The USDA reports the weighted average price of 10-pound bags of russet potatoes advertised in retail stores the week of Nov. 2 was $2.91, down from $3.50 per 10-pound bag at the same time a year ago.
Check out a few blog posts from Jerry Wright of United Potato Growers of America about the current plight of the potato market and what can be done to fix it (next season).
Confidence in the ability of the United Potato Growers to control acreage is under some doubt in the wake of a December 2011 court ruling. From The Packer's archives, reporting by Andy Nelson in December 2011:
The Capper-Volstead Act does not protect United Potato Growers of America from charges it illegally reduced the supply of potatoes in order to raise prices, according to an Idaho judge's ruling in an ongoing case.
But United Potato's president said that, despite reactions to the contrary, the ruling "is not a negative." A lawyer who counsels the co-op is optimistic the judge's mind can be changed on the issue before the end of the trial.
In a Dec. 2 ruling, U.S. District Court of Idaho judge Lynn Winmill rejected Salt Lake City-based United Potato's motion to dismiss a suit brought against it by Jamestown, N.Y.-based Brigiotta's Farmland Produce and Garden Center Inc.
The court did, however, dismiss charges against several individual grower-shippers who were co-defendants in the case.
Tom Galbato, Brigiotta's co-owner, would not comment on the ruling. In its complaint, filed in 2010, Brigiotta's accused United Potato of "classic cartel behavior" to control potato supplies and fix prices at artificially high levels.
In its motion for dismissal, United Potato argued that its practice of limiting U.S. potato acreage in order to strengthen markets is protected under the Capper-Volstead Act, which provides agricultural cooperatives limited exemption from federal antitrust laws.
Winmill ruled United Potato had no basis to make that claim.
"There are no cases where a court has concluded that Capper-Volstead immunizes cooperatives and their members who seek to collectively implement production controls in order to raise prices," Winmill wrote in the ruling. "The individual freedom to produce more in times of high prices is a quintessential safeguard against Capper-Volstead abuse."
TK: There has been no final judgment on the lawsuit, and one lawyer connected with the case said the "discovery" phase is ongoing. It will be telling to see if the United Potato formula for managing the nation's potato crop will be revived after this dark season, provided the legal challenges to the coop are successfully answered.
On a related industry note, here is coverage of the passing of noted potato expert Robert Kunkel.

HALF of households in the south east of England do not trust their energy supplier, according to a new survey.
It said 35 per cent of people said they do not understand their energy bill, 36 per cent of people felt that their gas and electricity bills were not accurate, while 40 per cent were worried they were paying more for energy than they consume.
Yet 44 per cent of people said they didn't think they had enough information to choose the right tariff and 39 per cent said they didn't have enough information to choose a supplier.
The research was conducted by The Smart Meter Central Delivery Body (SMCDB), which was created by the government to encourage people to install smart meters in their homes to help them monitor their usage.
They also found that the majority of those who do not trust their gas and electricity bills did not have a smart meter.

PORTSMOUTH – Jake Lankheit and Jordan Williams have been announced as the Mid-South Conference Player and Pitcher of the Week by conference officials. Both players are first time recipients of the weekly honor. The award, which runs from Monday through Sunday, spanned the five games including Miami-Hamilton, Ohio-Chillicothe and Bluefield series.
Jake Lankheit, a freshman, earned the weekly honor after batting .391 and slugging .652 over those five games. He recorded a hit in four of the five games and finished with nine hits for the week in 23 at-bats. He also drove in 11 runs and had four extra-base hits (two doubles, two triples) to go along with five runs scored.
His two biggest games came during Shawnee State's most convincing victories of the week. In the 23-3 victory over Ohio-Chillicothe, Lankheit went 3-for-5 at the plate with a double and two triples. During that game, he also drove in six runs and scored three more. In the Saturday game vs. Bluefield, he helped the Bears open the conference slate in style with a 4-for-5 game that included a double, three RBI and two runs scored.
Lankheit has played in 17 games this season and made 11 starts. He is currently batting .348 through 21 games and has 15 RBI to go along with six runs scored. He is slugging .478 and has a .375 on-base percentage. Behind the plate, he has also thrown out three runners trying to steal this season.
Senior Jordan Williams brought home his first weekly honor after he appeared in four of the team's five games this week with all of his appearances coming in relief. In total, he pitched seven innings and allowed just two earned runs on nine hits during that time. He also struck out nine hitters in those innings. The senior picked up two saves and another victory during that time.
Williams picked up his first save of the week as he pitched a perfect final inning against Miami-Hamilton during the 5-2 win. Williams also pitched each of the three games during the Bluefield series. The only time he allowed earned runs during the week was during the 12-7 win on Saturday when he pitched an inning of relief. In the first game on Sunday, Williams pitched 2.2 innings of relief to pick up the save in the 5-3 victory. He came back in the second game to throw 2.1 innings and picked up the win in the extra-inning game that the Bears won 8-5.
For the season, Williams has worked in relief during 10 games. He has posted a 2.11 ERA with the three saves and one victory in 21.1 innings of work. He has struck out 21 batters and allowed just 16 hits, including only three extra-base hits. Opponents are hitting just .205 off of him.
Baseball will be back in action this weekend with five more games from Thursday through Saturday. The Bears host Concordia this Thursday at 1 p.m. in doubleheader. This weekend, SSU will host Cumberland University for a single game on Friday at 2 p.m. followed by a doubleheader on Saturday starting at noon. The Bears are currently 11-8 overall and a perfect 3-0 in the Mid-South after the sweep of Bluefield.

Ways Intended for Go Lice Eradication
Removed are the days to weeks whenever people have to resort to be able to preparing kerosene upon remaining hair merely to eliminate lice. Men and women also have are available quite a distance by being forced to shave the actual hair away their own brain often only to keep your bothersome minor buggers absent. Advancements in the field of pediculicide exploration gave every person a chance to possess a better, lice-free living hair: thanks to powerful mind lice eradication products and methods.
General Data
Pediculicides, that technically suggests lice killers, may be compound as well as organic with character, although the label is normally utilized interchangeably having compound lice killers. These include commonly put on right after producing hair damp, due to the fact hair as situation is usually far more workable, that's a thing regarding getting rid of the actual remnants in the wiped out lice.
It is strongly recommended that this pediculicide become reapplied right after 10 days to weeks. By this time, the residual nits could have hatched in nymphs and reapplication might remove these kinds of survivors. Steer clear of exposure to eyes and if speak to will transpire, wash it out quickly. Realize that products vary from the app course of action, plus the time needed for the merchandise to look at influence. Go through recommendations meticulously.
After remedy, hair ought to be combed. This can be to remove the actual remnants in the expended lice, and also to take away nits too. Nits, actually the actual empty as well as expended kinds, might even now cling about the hair strand consequently they must become covered away; in any other case they will have to break up by natural means to allow them to disappear absolutely.
Locks Lice Eradication Procedures
There are numerous techniques for mind lice eradication. Maybe one of the most widespread methods is usually the usage of insecticides such as Malathion and Lindane, which might be with shampoo or conditioner type. These are strong even so the problem concerning these kinds of compound mind lice killers is usually that will lice may perhaps build resistance. The should be to wipe out quite a few mind lice quickly, getting rid of an opportunity of your brand-new generation.
One more approach to take away lice is usually using household and organic products. Many people make use of substances, such as mayonnaise as well as oil jell that leave hair strands better and during the time, suffocate the actual lice. All things considered, mind lice need to breathe in far too. Many people make use of coconut acrylic and organic olive oil. One of the most favorite natural options is usually the usage of teas shrub acrylic, which can be told have got lice-repellent properties. A new problem to this answer is usually that will, even as it may perhaps properly wipe out older mind lice, the actual nits might continue being. In such cases, many people make use of white vinegar as it dissolves that will compound that will keeps nits that come with the actual hair strand.
A rather more modern approach to remedy is the make use of in case silicone-based lotions. Silicon acrylic has been proven to wipe out lice simply by suffocation and dehydration. The actual problem is usually that will nits are usually hardly ever afflicted, due to the fact their own probabilities of staying suffocated are usually lean. All things considered, they will breathe in by having a very tiny orifice. However, the actual blend polyurethane foam was developed in order to wipe out the two older mind lice and nits. Along with making use of substances within the hair, mind lice can also be eliminated using mind lice combs. These types of can certainly sometimes become plastic-type material, precious metal as well as electrical. Additionally, firm abs very good the teeth in the hair comb physically take away lice from your mind. As soon as it is accomplished daily, at least before previous nymph is usually eliminated, it could be really powerful.
Whichever mind lice eradication alternative you decide, it's important that you check the actual position in the infestation.

Oliver goes to work for the Rangers
ARLINGTON -- Former Rangers pitcher Darren Oliver was back in uniform on Tuesday at the Ballpark in Arlington. Oliver retired as a pitcher after last season but is going to work for the Rangers as a special assistant.
Oliver's duties have not been completely spelled out, but he still lives in Tarrant County and, like former catcher Ivan Rodriguez, he can help the Rangers in a variety of ways both on and off the field.
"I want him to give up his experience," manager Ron Washington said. "He's got something to offer."
Oliver spent the past two seasons with the Blue Jays. But 10 of his 20 seasons in the Major Leagues were spent with the Rangers, including 2010-11, when he was a part of two World Series teams. Oliver turned 43 after last season but was still a respectable 3-4 with a 3.86 ERA in 50 games for the Blue Jays before deciding to retire.
"It was time," Oliver said. "Plus, my arm wasn't feeling all that good and I was missing a lot of things being away from home."
Oliver is not looking to get back in the game full-time as a pitching coach.
"This is good enough for me," he said.

49th Annual Sugar Bowl Classic ~ January 1, 1983
Joe Paterno said he could "feel it beginning to slip away."
This was a nail-biter, too, just like the previous two Sugar Bowls, a very good team was in a Dawg-fight with Georgia. Except this time, if the game slipped away from Paterno's Penn State team, so would Paterno's first No. 1 pennant.
The Nittany Lions were clinging to a 20-17 lead in the third quarter - a period in which the Bulldogs climbed back into position for an unlikely victory; a period in which the long Penn State passing lanes were shut down; a period in which three of Georgia's five sacks occurred, and a period in which Paterno started getting queasy.
Georgia could only inch beyond its own 45 twice in the first half - though both times the drives resulted in points. The Bulldogs, though, closed the gap to 20-17 on the first series of the third quarter, going 69 yards in 11 plays with Herschel Walker scoring from the 1.
Suddenly, the Sugar Bowl was up for grabs - and Penn State's national championship could be down the drain.
The Nittany Lions seemed to have lost a bit of poise, and quarterback Todd Blackledge, who, by his own admission, said he had been playing "out of whack." Blackledge recalled later, "I told coach to give me a little while and I would be okay."
When Blackledge got the ball back, in the opening minutes of the fourth quarter, with a first down at the Bulldog 47, and Georgia in two-deep coverage and playing the run, Blackledge called "six-43," a routine play-action fake while four receivers streak downfield. Flanker Greg Garrity flew past freshman cornerback Tony Flack and made a diving, skidding catch in the end zone.
"Todd made a great throw, Garrity made a great catch," Joe Pa assessed. "It gave us some breathing room."
But the door was not completely shut on the Bulldogs. There would be more drama.
The only turnover Penn State would commit that night, a fumbled punt return by Kevin Baugh, made things close to the end. Bulldog quarterback John Lastinger pushed Georgia from the Nittany Lion 43 to the 9, where he scrambled and then threw back across the field to tight end Clarence Kay for a touchdown with 3:54 remaining.
A two-point conversion would put Georgia - with one of the nation's best kickers in Butler - in position to win with a field goal. But Walker was stopped short, leaving the score at 27-23.
Strategies from here on were simple: Georgia needed to get the ball back; Penn State had to hold on to it.
On the third-and-one at the Nittany Lions' 23, Blackledge sneaked for two. On the next third down, three yards were needed at the 32. Instead of a lunge into the line by Warner, the call everyone expected, Blackledge said, "Let's go for it!" Paterno reacalled later, "I just told him, 'Make sure you throw it far enough.'"
Blackledge dropped back, and threw a darter to Garrity for a six-yard gain.
Walker said the Georgia offense was confident it could pull the game out..."if we could just get our hands on the ball. But when they made that last first down, I turned to the guy who was standing next to me and said, "We won't be going out there again.'"
Penn State had finally won its national championship by demonstrating clear superiority over a worthy opponent. Defenders like end Walker Lee Ashley and safety Mark Robinson, with nine tackles and two interceptions, performed above and beyond the call of duty. Walker was 'held' to 103 yards with his longest gain just 12 yards.
Curt Warner, on the other hand, out-rushed yet another Heisman Trophy recipient by gaining 117 yards. The previous year he ran for more yards than Southern Cal's Marcus Allen in the Fiesta Bowl.
The midseason 42-21 defeat to Alabama would be recorded as the largest defeat any national champion had then endured, showing just how far the Nittany Lions had come.
"We heard about the polls on the plane ride home," said Biondi. "We all cheered and basically went nuts." Receiver Kenny Jackson said, "Riding home tonight all this stuff was going on and I found myself thinking, 'Wait a minute. Is this for real?'...I know it's the greatest feeling I've ever experienced, but at the same time, it's unreal. I guess dreams are meant to be that way."

Video: Connecting and enjoying Apple TV®
Tara W. has worked for Crutchfield since 2004. She writes about whole-house music and video gear, and works on Crutchfield's video team.
More from Tara W.
Heads up!Welcome to this article from the Crutchfield archives. Have fun reading it, but be aware that the information may be outdated and links may be broken.
Tara, a digital media enthusiast, hooked up an Apple TV® and Yamaha YAS-10 sound bar in the Crutchfield Labs. She tells us how it works, what she watched and how she controlled it with her iPhone®.
Video Transcript
Apple TV digital media receiver
Tara: We now carry Apple TV and we're all really excited about it. We had the chance to set one up in our labs. So here it is.
Connect to iTunes for movies, music and more
Set up is really simple. We ran an HDMI cable to the TV and an optical audio cable to this Yamaha sound bar so we'd have better sound. Apple TV connects to the internet and we used the Wi-Fi connection we have here at Crutchfield, so all we had to do was plug in our network information and we were ready to go.
Once you're connected to the Internet you get access to a whole bunch of different content. First for us was a lot of different video services so Netflix, YouTube, and others like that. Since the Apple TV is hooked up to our network we can connect to a computer to play music and videos and photos that are stored on that computer. With Apple TV you can also connect to iTunes so you can rent movies and TV shows, buy them, and you can also access the TV shows you've already purchased through iTunes.
Stream music from the cloud with iTunes Match
Apple TV also gives you access to iTunes Match and that lets you stream the music that you've stored on the cloud.
Use iPod/iPhone/iPad to control Apple TV
Apple TV is an AirPlay device so you can stream from any IOS device like your iPhone, your iPad, straight through the Apple TV to your TV. This is great if you're looking at photos or watching a video on your phone and you decide you'd rather have it on the big screen. You hit the AirPlay button on your phone and up it goes onto your TV. Apple TV comes with a small IR remote that you can use to navigate the screens on your TV or if you have an iPhone, an iPod Touch, or an iPad you can download the free remote app from iTunes and that'll let you sit on your couch and use your IOS device to control Apple TV. And that works over Wi-Fi.
Since we're planning to use the Apple TV to watch movies and listen to music in our lab, we connected it to this Yamaha YAS-101 sound bar. We just wanted to get better sound than what this TV could offer us.Connecting it was really simple, just one digital optical cable from the Apple TV to the sound bar, and then we've got a whole lot better sound than we had before.
If you have any questions about Apple TV or sound bars just give us a call.

Bohemia Interactive responds to employee 'espionage' arrests in Greece
Earlier today it was reported that two Czech game developers from Bohemia Interactive were arrested after being accused of taking photographs and video the military installations. Information regarding the incident has been sparse, but Bohemia Interactive has released a statement about the employee arrests in Lemnos.
While it was reported that the two claimed they were gathering material for Bohemia Interactive's upcoming game Arma 3, Bohemia has denied that, saying the employees were visiting the island with "the sole purpose of experiencing the island's beautiful surroundings".
"Since its establishment in 1999, Bohemia Interactive has created games based only upon publicly available information," said Bohemia Interactive CEO Marek Spanel. "We always respect the law and we've never instructed anybody to violate the laws of any country. The same is true for Arma 3."
"Currently, all our effort goes towards supporting the guys over there, as well as their friends and families affected by this difficult situation. We sincerely hope that this is an unfortunate misunderstanding of their passion as artists and creators of virtual worlds," Spanel concluded.
It is currently being reported that the two developers were being transferred tot he Greek island of Lesbos where they will face a preliminary trial on suspicion of espionage.

Question for the Money Doctors
Question submitted on Jan 21, 2013.
QuestionI have a IRA brokerage account. I will have to start taking RMDs soon. I currently live on the dividends in my IRA. If I sell some of the stock for RMD I lose that income. Would it be advantageous to take RMD in kind value of the stock and put that into my regular brokerage account and continue to collect the dividends??
Taking your RMD in kind using the stock you currently use the dividends from as income is fine. You might want to liquidate and purchase higher dividend yielding stocks to create additional income. You also must take into consideration the additional tax effect on taking your RMD which is a taxable event.

You guys really want us to Mike Brown Frank Vogel? Harsh!
Can we just switch vogel and shaws titles? I love frank and his positive reeforcement, I really do... but we need a guy that knows how to... well... coach.

Hell, this may the worst Pacers team I've seen since I became a fan in '91.
For people wanting Vogel fired...so...it's his fault Roy can't get position on Larry ****ing Sanders? It's his fault Hill can't hit a shot? It's his fault guys aren't defending the paint?
So ridiculous.
Irony being, you are whining about other people whining.
This **** - poor play from the Pacers is so refreshing. I feel inspired.
I'd rather die standing up than live on my knees.
-Emiliano Zapata
Paul George is going to score 40 second half points. Roy is going to block 75% of the shots MIlwaukee takes in this half. And Monta Ellis is going to be ripped in half by Tyler Hansbrough as Tyler lets out a blood curdling scream of Indiana rage. After that the whole team will bake us Pacers' fans cookies and it will be just the bestest.
He's upset. Everyone's upset. We all could be doing something better w/ our time than watching Vogel-Ball. Being a realist about what's going on, you're probably not going to react the way a person who is trying to find the hidden positives in this crap will.
Why? They have a job to do now. If we sold out every game, they would be out of a job.
Can't wait!

If games are won and lost on a calculator and piece of paper, then why do we bother to play them?
I hope they're chocolate chip or snickerdoodle personally
Who's gonna be the next coach of the Indiana Pacers?
This sounds awesome, but I'm sure no one on the team could get any ingredients in the bowl.
Removed link to my website after a PM from Able.
Oh, I have a great idea!
Lets fire Vogel and promote our assistant head coach that has never coached a team in his life but Kobe likes him and he was Phil's assistant so he must be so much better than what we've got yay just give me executive of the year right now!!!
The new term for getting fired quick: Mike Browning. I love it.
What did Brandon Rush say that was so quickly deleted?
Super Bowl XLI Champions
2000 Eastern Conference Champions
Once again, this was not directed at you either. Similarly, what you said was not directed at me either since I never said anything close to what you implied.
My point is that everyone is tired. We don't need to make this any harder to ourselves.
I'm not on your case. You just happened to be the one I was replying to when I made my general observations.
Stop the whining we have a new scoreboard
This isn't completely Vogel's fault, though he does deserve a sizable amount of the blame. I place most of the blame on our front office for blowing all of our cap space to massively downgrade our bench. I knew at the time that this off-season was mediocre, but I didn't think it would be a complete train wreck.

Topic: Will chemo be delayed due to low grade fever and elevated WBC?
My Mom has been having low grade temperature (37.6 - 38C) for almost a week now. To make her feel better, she takes Ibuprofen 200 mgs as needed (is this the correct drug of choice if someone has a fever? Or maybe, Tylenol?). I was able to take a peek on her lab results last week and today, it was 12. + and now 13.+. It is elevated, right? She is scheduled to have a port placed tomorrow and very first dose of chemotherapy (Cisplatin and Gemcitabine) on Monday. With the elevated WBC and low grade fever, is it safe for her to proceed with the port placement and chemotherapy? I'm thinking anti-biotics as soon as possible. Will chemo be delayed because of these factors?
@PCL - Thanks for your advise. It seems like Y-90 has a higher success rate in shrinking tumor/s, I wonder why my Mom's oncologist opted for systemic chemotherapy first. I wonder if he's aware that there's a 2-4 week "rest period" needed in between...
Thanks in advance.

Anxiety and Stress Disorders
Living in A Panic Inducing Household
When I met my dad at age 11 and visited him approximately 2-3 times during the ages of 11-13 two strange incidences occured. 1) While I was standing, leaning over to my twin brother at the bar in the living room, wearing my bikini, I heard from behind me the sound of a camera snapping. I turned around and saw that dad had taken a polaroid of my butt in which he explained in his own words (i don`t remember) that my butt looked nice and because it was tightened (from leaning over to my brother). I grabbed the picture from him and told him that it was `nasty`. This year at 31 years of age I confronted him about it. He says that nothing was meant by it since he did it in the open while my brother and I were standing there. 2) One day he asked me into the spare room because he wanted to take a picture of me. He asked me to pose against the wall, but repeatedly kept asking me to lower my shorts for the pose. After he took the picture, I walked over to look at it and my shorts were sooo low that had I pulled them down any lower my pubics could have started popping out. The picture looked so horrible because so much of my skin was showing, even he made some kind of comment on how the picture did not look right. He tried to crumple the polaroid and threw it away. Then I `met` him again at age 30...I moved state and into his house (the same house where he took the two adolescent pictures of me) believing it was my best option... Repeatedly, strange incidences had occured. 1)The first day we decided to go swimming in his pool, I told him that I was going to go put on my shorts and bikini top to swim in because I was self conscious about my body. He urged over and over that I should put on my full bikini. I eventually did thinking that I need to grow up anyways and be comfortable with my body. While I`m sitting outside the pool in a chair and he is in the pool, as we are talking about my insecurities of my body, while he is stoned (he has done extensive drugs since his adolescent years)at one point he says `come here` and reaches his hand out to me (I felt !!!!) then he `carressed` with his fingertip the skin under my neck saying stuff like I have nice skin, boobs, etc... 2)The first bath I took was late one night. It took approximately 30 minutes to fill the tub because it`s faucet didn`t work so I had to use the sink faucet and use bowls of water etc. AFTER I get in the bath all the sudden I hear him at the other side of my bathroom door. He asks, `are you okay?` I yelled back in reply with disgust, `cannot a 30 year old woman manage to take a bath alone safely?` 3)One day, I tell him I will be back after I`m done taking pictures of myself for my boyfriend. I go to my room...while I`m doing this in my room all the sudden I hear him say from the other side of my bedroom door, `Do you want me to let your dog in?` In disgust I yell in reply, `NO!` Minutes later, he is back outside my door again and he said, `Do you want me to help take those pictures for you?` I don`t remember my reply of disgust. Later, I confronted him about these incidences. He claims that they were jokes. I showed him one of those pictures which was of my butt only and wearing a solid black longerie pair of shorts with red lace trim. He responded, folding his hands in prayer yelling, `thank you God!.` 4) I told him a story about being nearly raped. I was very clear about having not been raped. Then I remember him not once comforting me emotionaly and all he had to say was he wanted to kill the guy and `did he get in your pants off?` 5)One morning sleeping on the couch in the living room I awoke to find him starring at my face from like a foot or two away. 6)Told me one day, `you don`t know what I`d do to you if you were not my daughter.` I confronted him later. He claims he said this to boost my self esteem and that it was okay for him to say since I said (WHEN I was 12/13)TO my brother (my brother told him then apparently) `if he weren`t my dad I`d date him in high school` in reference to his senior high school picture. 7)In his garage one day, as I was looking up at an old cantine and asked him why he had such an old item on his wall, he says... but like a teenager takes his flashlight and puts it `up my crack`. 8) He, in his middle 50`s nearly `dated` a woman, 21-22 years old last year who has the same name as me. 9) One morning he barged into my room after saying from the other side of my door, "hey", and I responded, `yah?` I had to throw the blankets over myself as fast as I could so that he wouldn`t see me in my thong underware. I confronted him later. Later I commanded him that he always knock before entering my room. He told me one day that I was too ferocious about telling him to knock and that it is not fair that he has to knock when I do not have to do so when I go into his room at night. HE KEEPS HIS DOOR CRACKED FOR HIS CATS TO GO IN AND OUT AT NIGHT. I PEEK IN TO SEE IF HE IS IN BED SOMETIMES BECAUSE I WOULD NEED TO ASK HIM IF HE WOULD STAY AWAKE FOR ME SO I COULD HAVE SOMEONE TO TALK TO WHILE HAVING A PANIC ATTACK! I`ve been experiencing them since Nov. 2004. I have yet to determine if my dad is a manipulator or has the mental capacity of a 3rd grader since he would even try to compare the two. 10) One night having layed in the dark on the couch for about a half hour before falling asleep with my dog`s head resting on my legs as I`m curled up, all the sudden I feel my dog`s head lift up from my legs at to look at something in the dark. I decide to look also. I see my dad wearing only his underware, scrambling in the dark from one side of the kitchen door opening behind the wall in which there is only the front door there where it appears he was hiding to the opposite side of the kitchen wall. Then he peeks his head out stuttering I think something like, "I was just checking if you are okay." Within minutes he comes out to the living room, now in his robe and tells me he forgot to turn something off relating to the pool, so he goes outside the sliding doors... 11) I drove to his house for the rest of my things because I moved out. Sitting at the kitchen table, wearing summer shorts, 10 minutes before I`m leaving, I notice him put on his glasses that he wears when he watches movies. I`m talking on the phone. Then I notice his eyeballs starring in the direction of my legs. I turn my head trying to be discreet to see exactly what he is looking at and as quickly as possible without moving his head he moves his eyeballs to look at the fridge. This eyeball `game` happened like four-five times consequtively.
Recently my mom just informed me that he physically hurt her while they were married for not wearing a bra under her shirt one day while they were visiting with his parents and for another incident where she accidently saw a friend of his laying asleep in his underware while they were passing through the friend`s bedroom to get to thier sleeping quarters.
I believe that my dad is a pervert, a pedophile in the sense of fantasy, and I believe he lies or manipulates me in regards to his responses when I confront him about the incidences. What do you think? Please help.
Well it certainly sounds as if you have some significant problems with your father. He sounds like he has a substance abuse problem, as you have described it. It sounds like you made a good decision to move away from what has become a difficult situation for you.
I do not believe that "diagnosing" your father is as important as seeking counseling or therapy for yourself. You obviously have had some difficult experiences in both your childhood and into adulthood. You may be experiencing some post traumatic stress disorder, but only a qualified therapist or physician can make that diagnosis. Please seek out a therapist soon.
Good luck.

Mattingly comfortable with expanded replay system
SAN DIEGO -- Dodgers manager Don Mattingly said he was ready for his club's first regular-season game under Major League Baseball's expanded replay rules, after playing the two Australia games without it.
"I feel OK with it," said Mattingly. "It seems the technology is so good and so fast, there's no reason to rush on the field and yell and scream. It allows you to look in the back, and by the time you have to challenge or not challenge, you know the answer."
Dodgers video coordinator John Pratt will be the communicator from the video equipment in the clubhouse to the dugout, via telephone, to inform the bench when an umpire's call possibly is wrong. Then it's up to Mattingly to decide whether to use his one challenge for the game before the seventh inning. If the challenge is upheld, the club receives one additional challenge, but never more than a total of two in a game.
"The only question is, the only gray area, is it worth it in the second or third innings?" Mattingly said of the managerial strategy. "That's the only thing up in the air. Who's coming up? How many outs? If Hanley [Ramirez is] coming up, it might be worth breaking open a game. If it's [Josh] Beckett or a pitcher with two outs, it might not be worth it. It depends on the game and who you've got coming up.
"As far as the mechanics of it, we don't really know. We had a few games to try it and I'm fairly comfortable with the way it works. I'm confident in the technology. I'm sure there will be a few tweaks as it goes along. We'll still be able to argue and get our point across. But you can't have everything. You want to get the call right. The biggest argument would be if the [umpire] wouldn't review after the seventh inning. That would seem to be silly."

PYONGYANG, North Korea (AP) — North Korea's state broadcaster has announced on TV that Pyongyang's rocket launch was a success.
North Koreans watching TV in Pyongyang broke out into applause after the noon (0300GMT) broadcast Wednesday, about two hours after the launch from a west coast station.
State media said the Unha rocket sent a satellite into space. U.S. officials said they had no immediate confirmation that any device reached orbit.

MIAMI - Molita Spaulding handed out flyers at a U-Gas station off NW 47th Street and 27th Avenue Thursday to help track down witnesses of an attack against her nephew.
"We are doing the best we can do right now," Spaulding told Local 10's Ben Kennedy. "Just hoping and praying somebody saw something,"
Detectives say late Christmas night, Darrell Brackett ran out of gas and went to the U-Gas nearby station to fill up a can. That's when the 44-year-old got into some sort of a fight with three men.
The group doused Brackett in gasoline, set him on fire and took off.
"He is severely burned on 75 percent of his body. Right now he is in a medically induced coma," Spaulding said.
A woman who witnessed the sudden attack put out the flames. She is the one Brackett's family wants to find.
"If he was a part of their family, they would want somebody to help them. So, were looking for the same," said Brackett's cousin, Joseph Russell.
Brackett remains in critical condition.

Last Week's Results
Running the Gauntlet: The Griffins went 3-1 last week while playing their first four-in-six of the season, a test that they'll repeat this week starting Tuesday in Milwaukee. Just like last week, the gauntlet will conclude by playing three games in three cities in three nights, starting with Friday's visit by the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins. The Penguins are under the guidance of first-year head coach Dan Bylsma, a Grand Haven, Mich., native who played 429 NHL games over his 12-year playing career (1992-2004).
Pure Refreshment: Friday's game against Wilkes-Barre/Scranton marks another Dollar Beers, Dollar Dogs night. For all 15 Friday games this season, fans can enjoy $1 hot dogs and $1 domestic drafts from 6-8 p.m., while supplies last. Friday is College Night presented by McFadden's Restaurant and Saloon, as college students can visit the box office to purchase a lower bowl ticket for just $10 with a valid student ID. Finally, Library Night returns for all Friday games as well, enabling fans who present a public library card from the Grand Rapids Public Library or Kent District Library at the box office to purchase a lower bowl ticket for $10 (limit four per card).
Signs of Success: The Griffins own a three-game home winning streak and are 7-1-0-1 in their last nine games at Van Andel Arena, dating to the final two games of 2007-08…Grand Rapids has earned points in five of its seven road outings this season (3-2-2-0).
Tough Neighborhood: Four of the North Division's seven teams (SYR, MTB, HAM, GR) currently have winning percentages of 0.679 or higher, a figure attained by only four other teams around the AHL. Discounting games played against each other, those four North Division powers have a combined 38-9-3-1 record (0.784), including a 12-0 mark for Manitoba, whose only three losses this season have come to Hamilton (2) and Syracuse.
Come One, Come All: The Griffins stand fourth in the AHL with an average attendance of 6,204, a year-to-date increase of 8.6% over the first seven home games of 2007-08 (5,714).
One Month Ahead: Grand Rapids claimed its fifth home win of the season on Friday against Hartford, putting it exactly one month ahead of the 2007-08 squad that took until Dec. 14 to earn its fifth victory at Van Andel Arena.
Chart Toppers: Grand Rapids ranks among the AHL's best in power play (5th at 19.8%), penalty killing (3rd at 89.9%), scoring average (3rd at 3.71) and shots per game (3rd at 32.43).
Something Unexpected: The Griffins had denied 43 of their opponents' previous 44 power play chances before Milwaukee scored twice in a span of three opportunities on Sunday.
Enough's Enough: On Saturday, the Griffins earned their first-ever win against Quad City, defeating the Flames 3-1 at the I Wireless Center with a trio of third-period goals. Last season, the Flames became the first opponent in Griffins history to sweep a season series of at least four games (0-3-0-1).
Player of the Week Nominee: Goaltender Daniel Larsson earned the Griffins' nomination for the Reebok/AHL Player of the Week award today after going 2-0 with a 0.50 GAA, a 0.978 save percentage and one shutout last week. In Tuesday's 1-0 win over Houston, he made 16 saves to earn first star honors and his first North American shutout. On Saturday, he made 30 saves on 31 shots to backstop the Griffins to a 3-1 come-from-behind victory at Quad City.
Take Me to Your Leaders: Several Griffins rank among the AHL's individual leaders: Justin Abdelkader – T11th rookie points (10), 4th rookie goals (8), T4th rookie power play goals (3), 4th rookie shooting percentage (0.235); Jimmy Howard – T18th goals against average (2.68); Garrett Stafford – T12th defenseman points (9); Landon Wilson – T1st power play goals (6).
Old Faithfuls: Darren Helm, who registered points in all four games last week (2-3—5), has been held off the scoresheet in only two of the 12 games he's played this season. Landon Wilson also had points in every game last week (1-3—4), giving him only three scoreless outings in 14 contests. Ville Leino has tallied points in nine of his 12 appearances.
Strong Starters: Just 14 games into the season, Darren Helm and Mattias Ritola are putting up offensive numbers that could dwarf their rookie hauls. Helm already has 11 assists and 14 points in just 12 appearances, after recording 15 assists and 31 points last season. Similarly, Ritola has five goals and 11 points through 14 games, after notching seven goals and 22 points in 2007-08…Jakub Kindl scored his third goal of the campaign in game no. 12 versus Hartford on Friday, equaling his 75-game goal output from his 2007-08 rookie season…Tom Galvin has scored more goals in his last seven games (2) than he did in his first 121 contests as a Griffin (1)…Ryan Oulahen's six goals put him on an early pace for 34, which would eclipse his career-high by 20 (14 last season). He has scored goals in back-to-back games twice already this season, something he accomplished only three times in his prior three seasons combined…Garrett Stafford's nine points (2-7—9) tie him for 12th among AHL defensemen. He has finished among the league's top 17 blueliners in scoring in four of his previous five seasons.
Milestones: Ryan Oulahen played in his 243rd regular season games for Grand Rapids on Sunday, tying him with Tomas Kopecky for seventh on the team's all-time list…Darren Haydar's assist on Sunday was the 300th of his pro career…Garrett Stafford registered his 200th pro point with an assist during Friday's 3-2 win over Hartford…Landon Wilson notched an assist last Tuesday for his 150th in the AHL.

The Jump Start: Friday, February 1
Some links to start your Friday off right ...
• Only in Philadelphia will 20,000 people brave sub-freezing temperatures to tailgate in the middle of the night ahead of a wing-eating contest that's been sold out for weeks. Wing Bowl 21 started at 6 a.m. ET today. (You can listen in here.)
• Leave it to Kareem Abdul-Jabbar to write one of the sanest, on-point pieces of commentary on HBO's Girls, a show with no shortage of misguided critics.
• This is how close Phil Mickelson came to shooting a 59 yesterday.
• Russell Westbrook wasn't in the most talkative mood with Craig Sager last night.
• It's only getting worse for the 49ers. The team's much-acclaimed "It Gets Better" anti-bullying video has been removed from the project archive after two of the four players involved have denied involvement after finding out the video's purpose was the support of LGBT teens.
• Incredible no-look touch pass from Golden State's Jarrett Jack in last night's game against the Mavericks .
• Wake Forest will retire Chris Paul's No. 3 jersey on Mar. 2.
• Yesterday was soccer's transfer deadline day. Among other things it produced this fantastic photobomb.
• An interesting view from French journo Matt Spiro on the impact of David Beckham's transfer to Paris Saint-Germain. (The move landed on the front page of Friday's Le Parisien, Guardian and Wall Street Journal Europe.)
• Bar Refaeli's Super Bowl commercial for Go Daddy, released online ahead of Sunday's game, is the ultimate geek fantasy.

In fact, he keeps pictures on his cell phone of the various accidents.
Now, a developer is looking to add nearly 200 apartment units just south of the curve.
With promised road improvements, the Bullitt County Joint Planning Commission gave a favorable recommendation to rezone 8.5 acres from B-1 Highway Business to R-3 Residential.
