They already have everyone's combination on a big board. Instead of reading off, every envelope, just televise and air the top 3 picks
how about orlando winning the lottery two years in a row? In 1993, i think they had the worst possible odds to win the lottery, but the nba wanted to get shaq help quickly.
Kahn is generally an idiot, but there definitely have been a lot of "perfect" draft position victories of late (LeBron to hometown Cleveland, Rose to hometown Chicago, Wizards widow gets #1, Cavs get #1 & #4 after LeBron leaves, etc.). Add to that that the team with the worst record rarely wins the lottery (statistically unlikely), and that the draft is conducted privately, and you have all the makings of a pretty good conspiracy theory.
And don't even get me started on frozen/bent cards...
"Look, it's up to me to put a team around ... Lance right now." Kevin Pritchard press conference
Kahn just has the balls to say what everyone should think about the NBA draft process.
The Tim Duncan lotto pretty much confirmed the draft isn't rigged. They shipped him to San Antonio, when Boston had a chance at the number 1 and had tanked all year just to get him. If it was "rigged" Timmy would have been a Celtic.
The NBA isn't stupid enough to rig the lottery every year. But, if it is rigged, they've been ballsier of late.
Yeah, the NBA is just desperate to get Kyrie Irving to Cleveland. Give me a break.
I just think there is a better way to do it than with a suspect process.
There are ways to make sure the team in most need gets the #1 pick without tanking in a single year being a viable way to ensure position.
A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.
Or throw in a first-round pick and flip it for a max-level point guard...
Teams have representatives in the back (typically Morway when the pacers were in the lottery) when the balls are drawn. Are you guys implying that the entire NBA is in on this giant conspiracy as well?
No, but I'm sure they don't mind helping Cleveland "reload" in the wake of LeBron leaving town.
Plus the pick the Cavs got the number 1 with is the pick they get from the Clippers.
I just can't get behind the idea at all.
Last edited by Trader Joe; 05-18-2011 at 09:29 AM.
It's a "feel good" story, since the majority public opinion is that the Cavs got severely hosed by LeBron.
Washington is not a major NBA market either, but them getting the #1 pick last year in the wake of the owner's passing was also a "feel good" story for the media to run with.
Most people feel for Cleveland? I think the majority public opinion is that they thought Lebron handled it poorly, but I don't think anyone blames him for leaving Cleveland.
On the other hand -
Chicago raised MVP Rose goes 1st overall to who? Chicago.
Akron raised perennial all-star James goes 1st overall to who? Cleveland.
EDIT: Oops. I now see Sandman beat me too it.
Last edited by Tom White; 05-18-2011 at 10:21 AM.
Indiana raised Greg Oden goes to who? Portland.
Why would they rig it for Cleveland??
The town of Cleveland is losing a lot of money since Lebron left, they are closing stores and places because of it, I wouldn't be surprised that the NBA did this to help them.
@WhatTheFFacts: Studies show that sarcasm enhances the ability of the human mind to solve complex problems!
There have been four 'storyline' picks in the last 12 years. Three of those four should not come as a surprise considering those teams' odds, with Chicago getting the number 1 pick in the Derrick Rose draft being the only shock. Now if you can explain why a league that rigs drafts would give #1 picks to the likes of Toronto, Milwaukee, Portland and the Clippers i'd love to hear it.
And for those that want to see a live ceremony, that's cool. I prefer exciting television over a boring 2 minute process though, so i'll have to disagree.
News flash, almost every city in the US has financial issues.....
The estimated money lost by the town of Cleveland a year is like 100mil according to some reports, that is a lot for a town with financial issues.

2013 Chevrolet Malibu Eco
eAssist: don't call it a hybrid
The 2013 Chevrolet Malibu Eco is possibly the only hybrid on the road that's not covered in "hybrid" badges. That's mostly because GM doesn't market this vehicle as a hybrid, but as a vehicle that features eAssist technology. Here's how it works:
The engine room starts with a 2.4-liter, four-cylinder engine that makes use of variable valve timing and direct injection. Next, GM's engineers added the eAssist tech: a 15kW electric motor and a 0.5kWh lithium ion battery pack to the mix to help the internal combustion engine out. (For comparison, the Toyota Prius uses a 1.4kWh battery pack and the Plug-In Prius uses a 4.4kWh pack.) With so little capacity, the eAssist system can't really drive the vehicle by itself like a "true hybrid" can, but with an output of 79 pound-feet of torque, it can give the main engine a bit of gasoline-free help when accelerating.
The Malibu Eco's battery is small in capacity, but it still occupies a large chunk of the car's trunk.
An additional benefit of the electric system comes into play when the autostop system deactivates the gasoline engine when, for example, you're waiting at a traffic light. The electric motor is able to supply a momentary burst of up to 110 pound-feet of torque when you tap the accelerator to get the vehicle moving while the main gasoline engine fires up. It may not seem like much, but this second or so of electric motivation smoothes out the stop-start transition and takes much of the jerkiness out of the auto-stop system. The result is restarting that's smoother than, for example, the BMW 3 Series' autostart but still not as seamless as the Toyota's Hybrid Synergy drive.
The Malibu Eco also features an array of aerodynamic tweaks that differentiate it from the standard Chevrolet Malibu, although you'll have to look closely to see any of them. One that you'll likely never see is the active shutter technology, but that's because you'd have to be outside of the vehicle at highway speeds to see this mechanical shutter close off the lower grille opening to reduce aerodynamic drag. I'll just take Chevy's word for it.
Total system power under most conditions adds up to 182 horsepower and 172 pound-feet of torque, but you're most likely interested in fuel economy, which the EPA estimates at 25 city, 37 highway, and 29 combined mpg. I finished up my fuel economy testing (which consisted of about 60 percent city driving and 40 percent highway cruising, all done with a light pedal foot) with the trip computer sitting at 24.7 mpg. For comparison, my testing in the 2012 Toyota Camry Hybrid XLE, which outputs similar power when asked, yielded 34.2 mpg.
It's not a flaw, it's a feature
While most of my driving was done with an eye to keeping the instrument cluster's ECO gauge in the green zone, every once in a while we all need to get somewhere and get there fast. On a Sunday afternoon, as I rushed across the San Francisco-Oakland Bay Bridge to get the Malibu Eco back into the CNET garage before Editor-at-Large Brian Cooley arrived to take his turn behind the wheel, I learned that it is simply impossible to drive the 2013 Chevrolet Malibu Eco fast.
There are likely a number of reasons why the Malibu Eco didn't want to go fast, but the focus of my ire was the single-option six-speed automatic transmission. Like most transmissions geared for efficiency, this one was programmed to hustle up to top gear as quickly as it could. So under most conditions, the engine was operating well below the sweet spot where its power and torque could be found. So anytime you needed a squirt of power, there'd be a moment's hesitation while the gearbox decided what it needed to do. Unfortunately, by the time the shift actually happened, the eAssist system would also have kicked in with its additional torque. The gearbox would then assume, "That's enough power for now" and immediately upshift again. By the time all of this had happened, the opening in traffic would have already closed, leaving me swearing at the top of my lungs as my freeway exit sailed past.
The 6-speed automatic transmission made sure that the Chevrolet Malibu Eco's 182 horsepower was always just out of grasp.
Braking was just as unsettling. The Chevrolet Malibu Eco wasn't difficult to slow, but how quickly you'd be slowing was a bit vague, varying from stop to stop. Pedal travel was inconsistent, passing through random zones of free travel and resistance. Additionally, I could almost feel the balance of friction and regenerative braking being adjusted below my right foot, but I could never really accurately gauge available grip. Your best bet here is to give yourself plenty of space to slow down and be prepared to apologize to your passenger for the jerky stop.
Perhaps GM's engineers programmed this lagginess into the Chevrolet Malibu Eco's power train to discourage aggressive driving. After a week of trying to coax acceleration out of this "Camaro-inspired" sedan, I'm sure that most drivers would just give up and drive slowly. Perhaps this isn't a flaw, but a feature? Nah, it's definitely a flaw.
Chevrolet MyLink infotainment system
Standard in the 2013 Chevrolet Malibu Eco is the automaker's new MyLink infotainment system. This 7-inch touch-screen-based interface gives access to Bluetooth hands-free calling with voice dialing, Bluetooth audio streaming with metadata display, iPod and USB playback of digital audio with album artwork, SiriusXM Satellite Radio, and of course the standard AM/FM/CD playback.
Connect an iPhone via USB or an Android phone via Bluetooth and you may notice two more icons illuminate on MyLink's home screen, for Pandora Internet Radio and Stitcher. If these apps are installed on your smartphone, MyLink can automatically launch them and you can take full dashboard control at the touch of a button. While listening to Pandora, you can browse your preset stations, skip songs, and speak certain voice commands such as, "Thumbs-up." Stitcher Radio integration is similarly executed, giving you access to radio shows saved as favorites in the app via the MyLink's 7-inch screen.

It's called not getting too high after a win or too low after a loss.
We're hitting a stretch of a few "low losses".
Obviously that means there is NO chance for us to turn it around, right?
Might as well just forfeit our games I suppose?

Good teams taht are struggling don't lose this game tonight...
"We've got to be very clear about this. We don't want our players hanging around with murderers," said Larry Bird, Pacers president.
It's all on the coach. This team has no offense...still, after 3 years. DC didn't just magically become good again in Dallas. It's that Dallas has a great coach that knows how to get the best out of his players. Vogel doesn't know how to get the best from the players on the roster. If guys aren't executing properly, again, that is on the coach. Guys aren't making shots cause they really can't get many easy buckets. Comes down to the coach cause he can't implement any type of offense.
If Vogel isn't on the hot seat soon, then I don't think Walsh really cares what happens to this team.
Even without Granger there is a ton of talent on this team and they just stink.
I really want to know what Shaw contributes, cause to me, it doesn't look like much. Too much talent here to be playing like crap. I'm ready for SVG or Sloan.
First time in a long time, I've been happy with the team that was constructed, and now they struggle. I blame the coach.
Not really. Toronto is without Kyle Lowry, far and away their best player. Washington was without their only NBA starter caliber players. Minnesota was without Rubio, Love and I forget who else. We gave up 101 to the Spurs, and the Hawks have a fairly poor offense. This is the easy part of the schedule, guys.
Wait til we start playing good (or even healthy) teams and start losing by 30. No heart, no hustle. Blaming it on Granger's absence is the most pathetic excuse imaginable, yet that's all I've heard from the Pacers players and (sadly) Frank Vogel. And that's another reason Vogel has to go. If he thinks it and says it, of course the players will too.
Btw, where's the sunshine crowd from the Washington win?
Can't blame it on playing games on the road or being tired anymore. What excuses are left?
Man Stacey Paetz has sharpened her game. See her doing sideline reporting tonight on NBA tv
"We've got to be very clear about this. We don't want our players hanging around with murderers," said Larry Bird, Pacers president.
Quarter-serious, semi-ridiculous comment: IU could average more points per game this year than the Pacers.
"Look, it's up to me to put a team around ... Lance right now." Kevin Pritchard press conference
"Look, it's up to me to put a team around ... Lance right now." Kevin Pritchard press conference
So 5 fourth quarter points for the Raptors..
So if Collison didn't quietly ask for a trade this offseason I'm going to be pissed.
Seriously. That Dallas trade is looking horrid.
Also, DJ has done nothing for this team. Has he even scored ten points combined this whole season?
Roy needs to get his head out of his *** as well. In the meantime play through Hill, Lance, Tyler and West. They look like the only ones who give a damn right now.
Sigh. I hope this gets better.
I'm not panicking yet, but this has been bad so far. Only good thing is we have a game tomorrow.

Man....where do we go from here? I would almost bet the farm that the two guys that a lot of people thought were the future of the franchise(Paul George, Hibbert) never come anywhere near fans or management's expectations. I never trusted either one but that's just me.
@MikeWellsNBA: Good news: Pacers set a franchise record for fewest pts allowed n a quarter w 5 in the 4th. Bad news: They still couldn't win the game.
It's been suggested before, but why isn't Vogel playing Plumlee? I understand the implications but you've seriously got to consider limiting or benching Hibbert soon. Come up with a fake injury if necessary, but no team in the NBA is going to be successful with a starting center shooting under 38%, especially when he's their highest paid player. That's just crippling. Time for Plumlee to get some minutes; at least he dunks and will be able to catch alleys from Lance/Hill/DJA
I'd rather have Ben Hansbrough be the backup PG over DJ at this point.
DJ looks like an NBDL player. He's made like one good pass and missed 90% of his shots.

I actually think Plumlee would give just as much or more than Hibbert right now.
Sadly, that isn't a crazy statement to make.
Lord save our Pacers.

We are who we thought they were...
What the heck is Barbosa doing right now? We need offense bad and right now he would be better than anybody on the Pacers other than Hill and West.

Swallon lymph nodes in the neck
My wife has swollen lymph nodes on both sides of her neck. She has one swollen node on lower left side of her (backside) head. The one in the head is painful when touching. She has been having pain in her neck and upper back side. She feels fatigue after work, a lot more than normal. She also has headaches when she is fatigue. A CBC blood count came up normal. We went to see an ENT and a biopsy is set in two weeks. The swollen lymph node in the neck started six weeks ago and have not gone down. She has been having neck and upper back pain since then. She does not have a cold, no infection, no night sweats, no itching, no loss of appetite, no dramatic weight lose. What could be her condition?

I'm fine with him not coming back.
Lance is finally getting his turn. This is a make/break season for Lance. I still think he's going to be our X-factor.
First time in a long time, I've been happy with the team that was constructed, and now they struggle. I blame the coach.
I don't think we will re-sign him and Lance Stephenson is definitely not backup point guard material so I think both of those poll options are wrong. No vote for me.
The poster "pacertom" since this forum began (and before!). I changed my name here to "Slick Pinkham" in honor of the imaginary player That Bobby "Slick" Leonard picked late in the 1971 ABA draft (true story!).
I feel like the Pacers would have already renounced him if they didn't plan on bringing him back cheaper. He wouldn't get a lot of playing time, I think, but I wouldn't mind having him on the team. I liked the energy he brought on offense last season. It may not have helped greatly in the playoffs, but he was one of few that would still attack the basket every time he got the chance.
I say they give Lance one more (maybe last chance) to prove himself. If he fails, then Hill and G.Green will have play some time at SG.
I can't imagine a worse choice for the Pacers to make at this point unless other trades are on the way that thin out that part of the roster. George, Hill, Greene, and Johnson are all on the roster, and Stephenson beyond that if need be. There really is no place on the roster for another 2 guard at this point, even if Hill is only played as a 1 (which I doubt).
No option exists in the poll to give my emphatic answers of NO! and NOOOOO!!!!!!!! respectively.
Barbosa is continuing his dogsh** play against the Olympic team!
Hell no to bringing him back!
John Hollinger@johnhollinger
Yes US pressure looked great in Q2.... but also, Brazil backup PGs suck.
John Hollinger@johnhollinger
I envision Barbosa's agent in the TV truck furiously trying to pull all the plugs....
What is the current Pacers salary? How much salary under the LT is left?
I don't see the Pacers re-signing Barbosa as they have more than enough players to cover the SG spot. To me it's waste of money.
Frank says its Lances spot going into camp. I'd guess if Lance can't handle it, GG gets all the back up wing minutes in a 3 man rotation, there. If that doesn't work, then they'll have to bring someone in or......
Interesting note from Frank on Dakich yesterday said Orlando Johnson, in the 5 practices leading up to the summer league games, hit every open shot and blew them away... so I'm guessing Orlando J is much better off than his summer league shooting % leads you to think. I wouldn't count OJ out, his physical build and skillset are ready now, its just getting his mind around it all, I think.

Yeah, he was terrible
19 min, 10 points on 57% shooting, 2 steals, 1 Reb, 1 Ast, 1 TO.
Sorry, I just don't mind that he struggles against Chris Paul/Deron Williams/Lebron, especially when playing out of position like he was last night. Sure, he wasn't good in the playoffs, but that doesn't mean there isn't a role for him on this team going forward. I for one wouldn't mind a guy playing 10ish minutes a night that won't be afraid to shoot/give guys a breather. Not to mention that he is by far our best finisher in transition, seeing as the rest of the team struggles with dunks/layups when going hard to the rim.
Like everything else, it all comes down to how much/what he thinks his role should be.

Public Meetings Set for Big Bend Ranch State Park Use Plan
AUSTIN — The Texas Parks and Wildlife Department will hold public meetings Feb. 8 in Alpine and Feb. 15 in Houston to seek public comment about how Big Bend Ranch State Park should be accessed and used for recreational purposes in the future.
Alpine's Thursday meeting will be held from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. at the Kokernot Lodge, 1101 North Loop Road just west of the Sul Ross University campus. The Houston meeting will take place from 7 p.m. to 9 p.m. in the Judson Robinson Community Center at the corner of Hermann Drive and Almeda at the edge of Hermann Park. Public meetings on the plan already have been held in Marfa and Austin.
A draft of the Public Use Plan calls for retaining two of the 12 existing campsites in the park's interior, 67 miles of trails, roads and river campgrounds, and access points. The initial phase of development would add 24 primitive campsites, 13 trailheads, 83 miles of trails and 44 miles of four-wheel drive roads that would make more of the park's interior accessible.
At roughly 300,000 acres, Big Bend Ranch State Park, located just outside Presidio, is by far the largest in the Texas state park system, stretching from the Rio Grande well into the Chihuahuan Desert's numerous mountain ranges and canyon lands.
Unlike Garner, Inks Lake and most state parks, Big Bend Ranch is minimally developed, offering visitors a rare opportunity to enjoy an uncrowded wilderness experience. Just how to expand park access without negatively impacting its fragile resources is what the public use plan will address, said Mike Hill, TPWD's West Texas regional state parks director.
"Big Bend Ranch is both ecologically sensitive, and archeologically and geologically significant, with 134 free-flowing, fresh water sources and riparian areas that are home to unique plants and animal species," Hill said. "Therefore, careful planning for the expansion of public use is essential and candid public input is imperative."
The public meetings are the continuation of a planning process TPWD began in 2004, but was put on hold by a variety of reasons, including a continuing budget squeeze that forced staffing cutbacks, Hill explained. The park's size is so huge, he said, that it has been divided into nine management zones for planning purposes, each of which is larger than almost any other state park.
For more information, or to comment on the plan, visit the TPWD Web site public comment page, or call (512) 389-4661.

A man dressed in black robbed a Greenbrae bank Wednesday evening, a week after another business was robbed just 500 feet away, police said.
The crime was reported at about 5:30 p.m. at the Chase branch at 401 Sir Francis Drake Blvd. Bank employees told police the robber placed a small bag on the counter and handed a teller a demand note, then walked out toward the parking lot with cash.
The robber did not display a weapon or suggest he had one, and no one was injured.
Bank customer Romeo Agbayani, a physician in Greenbrae, said he was in the branch during the robbery and never knew it happened.
"The bank manager came up and said 'We just got robbed,'" Agbayani said. "I was like, really? It was that smooth. ... There was no yelling, no screaming, nothing like that."
The robber was described as white with a grayish blond mustache that ran down the sides of his mouth, said police Sgt. Julie Gorwood. The man was wearing a black baseball cap, a black hooded sweatshirt and black pants.
Witnesses did not see the suspect get into a car after leaving the bank, Gorwood said. The branch, which is in Bon Air Center, is adjacent to Sir Francis Drake Boulevard.
Anyone with information about the robbery can call the Twin Cities Police Department at 927-5150. Tipsters can also call the multilingual Bay Area Crime Stoppers hotline at 800-222-8477, where they can remain anonymous and be eligible for a possible cash reward.
The robbery is the second since Dec. 5, when a man robbed cash and cigarettes from the Shell station at 295 Sir Francis Drake Blvd., just east of the Chase bank. Police do not suspect the same man was involved in both robberies.

FRISCO -- Kevin Hartman is seeing the world thanks to two FC Dallas supporters.
Well, the Hartman bobblehead, that is.
And the veteran goalkeeper is more than happy to log on to Facebook each day and find out what his recently released bobblehead has been up to.
"I feel like Flat Stanley," Hartman said. "It's been great. I haven't really had the opportunity to travel to England, which is really weird for someone who's played professional soccer for 16 years."
Among the destinations bobblehead Kevin Hartman has visited include Wimbledon, London's Tower Bridge and Shakespeare's Globe Theatre. Supporters Jon and Brenda Beard are making sure the bobblehead hits all the hot spots.
"It's cool," Hartman said. "I'm living vicariously through my bobblehead."

Why Buy a Portable Speaker?
You own an iPod, a mobile device equipped with audio, a laptop and a PSP. You can listen to music and other audio files on each and everyone of these things. Why would you possibly want to purchase a portable speaker? The fact is each of these pieces of equipment do broadcast audio, but they do not play it loud and clear without the use of headphones. In fact, most laptops, phones and handheld video games can only be heard if you are holding them closely. Also, most MP3 players can only be heard with the use of headphones. The restriction of audio does not allow you to hear the music loud or clear.
Portable speakers can fix this for you. Not only can you listen to you music without the use of headphones, but you can also broadcast it throughout the room. Others can listen to your music with you and the quality will be like nothing you've ever heard before.
If you look for a portable speaker that is compatible with all of your audio devices, your audio selections will be endless. There are many different portable speakers on the market, but to get the most for your money you should get one that has dual USB technology. This will give you the opportunity to use your portable speaker on both PCs and Macs.
One positive attribute to having a handheld speaker is listening to music with other people. If you have a portable speaker you can hook it up to your MP3 player or laptop and broadcast the music for the entire room to hear. This is a great idea for parties and casual get-togethers.
Handheld speakers are also good if you are a fitness fanatic that likes to work out with friends, having a compact speaker will allow you to listen to music together. There are some portable speakers on the market that are designed for the fitness gurus. They are small in size and weigh less than ½ pound. They also come with a fitness armband that will fit your MP3 player as well.
No matter what you use to listen to audio files, having a portable speaker will be beneficial. It will allow you to listen to your music louder, more clearly and without interference. It will also give you the ability to share your music with friends and most importantly, you won't have to use those dreaded headphones anymore.
www.simplyvibe.com, www.simplyglobo.com
When you're out shopping for portable audio speakers, it's hard to know which one has the best quality AND won't put a hole in your wallet. There are so many brands, models, and features that could easily overwhelm anyone shopping for new speakers. However, once you try out the SimplyVibe V5-BT1, you'll never have trouble shopping for speakers again.
The SimplyVibe V5-BT1 portable speakers are the newest model that have been introduced on SimplyGlobo's website. One of the best features of this product is that it is Bluetooth which means it can hook up to your laptops, smartphones or tablets without dealing with any cords or plugging anything in. It's very simple to pair your device with the speakers and the instructions are user friendly and straightforward. Once your device is paired up, all you have to do is choose a song and hit play! You can control the volume as well as switch songs from either your own device or the speakers which I find very convenient. These amazing speakers can play up to 18 hours on medium volume without needing a charge, so you don't have to worry about charging it all of the time. The speakers aren't the only thing that can be charged; in case your phone battery is about to die, you can use the included USB and charge your phone using the speakers. That's a very special feature that you won't find on a lot of portable speakers. Also, if you're using your smartphone to listen to music and you get a call at the same time, you can answer the call using the product as a speakerphone! It takes one press of the button and you can talk to someone straight from the speaker and then go right back to listening to your music. After learning about all of the unique features of the SimplyVibe V5-BT1, I hope this helps make your shopping experience a lot less stressful! Happy shopping!

PUPILS from across Gwent were given safety messages as part of campaigns to tackle bullying, drug misuse and the effects of alcohol.
Students from King Henry VIII School in Abergavenny travelled to the Territorial Army barracks in Ty Coch Way, Cwmbran, to learn about safety.
They were given a range of talks from organisations including BulliesOut, who took the children through the bedroom of a 10-year-old girl and the children had to look for evidence that the girl was being bullied.
The school community police officers from Gwent Police showed the film 'Picture This' to discuss bullying and the proper use of mobile phones while the South Wales Fire and Rescue Service showed a film about the risks of leaving hair straighteners on a bed when they are hot.
Drugaid spoke of the short and long term effects of alcohol use, while the British Red Cross demonstrated how to help someone at risk.
Western Power warned of the dangers of electricity, the Food Standards Agency talked about food poisoning and Road Safety Wales spoke of the dangers of not wearing seatbelts.
Meanwhile the Police and Crime Commissioner for Gwent, Ian Johnston joined pupils from across Caerphilly at the anti-drugs play, Wings to Fly.
The play highlights the dangers and consequences of substance misuse.
Nearly 2,000 school pupils from Caerphilly have watched the play which was performed at Blackwood Miners Institute between March 10 and today.
Mr Johnston said: "Hard-hitting theatre plays such as this one are a very useful resource for warning young people about the dangers and the tragic consequences of substance abuse.
"We want less victims of crime in our communities and productions such as this one can help young people to see the impact of substance abuse for themselves and hopefully help them to make the right decision about drugs or alcohol if or when the time comes."
It was performed by youth theatre groups from Blackwood and Bedwas to pupils in Gwent.

Final Thoughts
The way that I like begins, not with some creed, but with a possibility, to gradually discover and transform into something much more like one's best self. (In a way this seems to involve healing all the damage done by creeds.) Rogers really has a great approach the human levels of this and gives a lovely modern guide into the process.
The atmosphere is one of complete supportive non-judgmentalism which creates a safety of thought and expression. So one moves from being trapped within feelings and attitudes to being able to notice and understand them, and frees oneself from habitual interpretations. One builds a new self-system and lives in it in a renewed context.
Quiet enables recovery from a hundred minor traumas and perhaps some major ones. The sweet rest of the parasympathetic comes to predominate in the nervous system. (Peace also turns out to be strongly linked with invigorating aliveness, whilst unpeacefulness inculcates deadness at rates which should be sobering but sadly rarely are.) No body is ungrateful for having its tendons transformed.
As Glenn says, the result of discovering meaning and meaningfulness is to exist in "calm connectedness". This means normal life would otherwise be disconnected (estrangement). The recovery process thus leads somewhere one couldn't consciously aim, therefore one gradually learns to trust it. Whoever one "is", whatever the life one is entrained to, the process takes in all of its elements and begins to reveal the underlying connection between them, the person who is doing that living, who would be lost if focused on objects. One expresses this in one's own way, learning to know where the ups and downs naturally come and when to push or relax. This is part of what Rogers called "being process".
I don't mean to imply in this series that seeing a therapist (or indeed a healer) isn't a good idea. One might uncover difficulties emotionally, and whilst there are some people who find it possible to get over that by themselves, there are others who don't. Follow your heart. But whether one sees a therapist or not, the process is the process, and it is your process. You be the judge of what is needed as you make your moves and allow spontaneous action/reaction. Success often lies in taking the highest promptings seriously.
Meditation actually improves the Rogerian formula even at the beginning. Silence, that ultimate answer to all earthly questions, is not usually used in a non-transpersonal therapy. When combined with Rogerian technique, it brings a deep balm, ease and peace to the person who has probably been without it for a long while.
The stillness of meditation starts to manifest the deeper meaning of the person's life which begins to be directly felt. This creates an atmosphere that forms the basis for realisation, for awareness of depth. It is totally natural and comes unsought. It simply needs to be allowed to come, needs the space in which to come. Although it may not have the mighty luminosity of transpersonal experience at first, the solidity, selfness, reality of the result still comes to be valued more than anything else which could disturb it, and thus life changes suggest themselves to preserve and deepen what one is becoming. There may be considerably less sayable in the new identity than in the old.
To my mind this all concatenates with chi kung. I should mention shen, a hard-to-translate word rendered variously as "spirit", "mind", "daimon", "all-embracing love" or "awareness". Shen as it first manifests in chi kung tends to give the feeling of a deep heart-peace and acceptance, intimately quiet and relieving, that gradually reveals an inner illumination which is the beginning of (re-)encountering the real. It also, in the Chinese conception, is the result of natural processes, which harmonise and unblock chi whilst jing, life essence, is allowed to build. Shen later is spirit or consciousness itself, and therefore the signal of realisation.
There are obviously many transformations after this, on the path I like, many things that reveal themselves beyond this initial stage. Spiritual truth is not "psychological" in the modern sense and the quest reveals itself on levels that (I believe) we all know, but in practical terms, have mostly forgotten if not for the promptings we all feel towards those levels. Gopi Krishna attributed those holotropic promptings to the Kundalini process making itself known on a quiet level to everyone, I think correctly. Our lives wish to deepen.
But as long as this initial understanding has been attained, it can be developed in daily life as well, and forms a sign of what is to come as well as a doorway to it. Everything that happens becomes part of its flow. One always has an awareness, a place to which to return. One is just oneself, after all.
That's the end of the series — many thanks for reading and welcome to all the new subscribers!
The reading lists all need a huge amount of redoing… I hope to get that done later on… I know I keep saying that…
The problem is that the next series has made for a huge amount of research, and I'd like to make as much of it available as I can. In fact that research is still ongoing, so there's going to be a gap before the series begins, but fear not as I'll be doing short posts on various other subjects as they take my fancy.
Answer to the question: do I still use hypnosis? Yes. Didn't mean to imply otherwise at all. More on that in a sec. Does hypnosis tie in with this series? Absolutely can. The Ericksonian unconscious works by the same kind of spontaneity. (EDIT: Just saw this book combining Erickson and Rogers.)
More recent work in the vein of Maslow and Rogers has been done by Czikszentmihalyi and Seligman, and there are various other things out there of interest in the same direction. More on them as I fill in before the next series, but I won't be writing about psychology in any depth for a while now as we need to venture into the wild.

Total anomalous pulmonary venous return is a heart disease that is present at birth (congenital heart disease) in which the four veins that take blood from the lungs to the heart do not attach normally to the left atrium (left upper chamber of the heart). Instead, they attach to another blood vessel or the wrong part of the heart.
TAPVR; Total veins
The cause of total anomalous pulmonary venous return (TAPVR) is unknown.
In normal circulation, blood is sent from the right ventricle to pick up oxygen in the lungs. It then returns through the pulmonary (lung) veins to the left side of the heart, which sends blood out through the aorta and around the body.
In TAPVR, oxygen-rich blood returns from the lungs to the right atrium or to a vein flowing into the right atrium, instead of the left side of heart. In other words, blood simply circles to and from the lungs and never gets out to the body.
For the infant to live, an atrial septal defect (ASD) or patent foramen ovale (passage between the left and right atria) must exist to allow oxygenated blood to flow to the left side of the heart and the rest of the body.
How severe this condition is depends on whether the pulmonary veins are blocked or obstructed as they drain. Obstructed TAPVR causes symptoms early in life and can be deadly very quickly if it is not found and corrected with surgery.
The infant may appear very sick and may have the following symptoms:
Note: Sometimes, no symptoms may be present in infancy or early childhood.
Surgery to repair the problem is needed as soon as possible. In surgery, the pulmonary veins are connected to the left atrium and the defect between the right and left atrium is closed.
If this condition is not treated, the heart will get larger, leading to heart failure. Repairing the defect early provides excellent results if there is no blockage of the pulmonary veins at the new connection into the heart. Infants who have obstructed veins have worsened survival.
This condition may be apparent at the time of birth. However, symptoms may not be present until later.
Call your health care provider if you notice symptoms of TAPVR -- prompt attention is required.
There is no known way to prevent TAPVR.

OAKLAND — The A's lost starting pitcher Brad Mills to a waiver claim, with the left-hander snapped up by the Toronto Blue Jays Thursday morning.
The report, first tweeted by Fox's Ken Rosenthal, means the A's have lost two short-term pitchers in the last week. The A's traded lefty Jeff Francis, who they'd picked up from the Reds on May 18, to the Yankees for a player to be named later rather than risk losing him on waivers.
The A's added Mills for a much-publicized $1 from the Brewers on June 17. Mills had a clause in his contract that said the Brewers had to set him free if he wasn't promoted to the big leagues by mid-June, and when the Brewers chose not to do that, they essentially gave him to the A's.
Oakland brought him to the big leagues on June 20 as a replacement for the injured Drew Pomeranz. Mills got three starts before he was designated for assignment with the A's adding Jason Hammel in a trade with the Cubs. In his time with the A's, Mills went 1-1 with a 4.41 ERA, including beating the Mets with 6.1 innings June 25 in New York, allowing three runs.

Great course. I really learned a lot about myself, family and others. I learned many life lessons about becoming assertive with family, friends,and on the job. I really appreciate the information and I am applying it with great success to my life. I strongly recommend this class to anyone but especially to women of all ages. It's never too late to learn new tricks.
I found it very interesting of what type of person I was and definitely found this course very helpful and will help me to use this information to be an assertive person.
I have learned a lot from taking this course. I find myself becoming more assertive in my daily life. Thanks to this course, I feel that I am on the way to becoming a more confident person!
I have used assertive behavior on two occasions within the past couple of weeks. Before this class began, I would not have spoken up for fear I was letting someone down, or maybe I was the one that was wrong about the situation. I have really enjoyed the class and will use the assertive techniques often.....Thanks!
I've learned so much in the few weeks during this course that my performance review on the job was above average! My manager's boss noticed, as well as my manager, that I handle my responsibilities in a direct way with clear communication. Thanks, Vivian, for your lessons that are detailed. They make me realize some things that I've never thought about. I will refer to the lessons often.
Thanks! This was a great course for me. I have made improvements already, especially with family members.
Thank you for this course! I feel that it's given me a new lease on life! I can now say what I mean and mean what I say without feeling guilty or wrong. By doing this, I can relieve a lot of the frustrations I've had from holding things in and making them my problem when they should have been someone else's problem all along. Thanks for teaching me to stand up for myself instead of always being so passive and taking the heat for things that I did not do. You've helped me learn how let go of a lot of my resentment and bitterness about things that I felt I had no control over. I DO have control over how I'm treated and I have a right to speak my opinions without feeling threatened or wrong. Thank you!
This course gave me renewed confidence and provided great resources and knowledge. The assignments and information gained will be useful now and in the future. I am very glad I took this course from this instructor, who was very insightful and helpful.
This course was very helpful to me in my passive life with my work, husband, and children. I hope I will be more assertive with them in the future, now that I know how.
What an intense course! Everytime I reread the different lessons I end up highlighting something I missed before. I have made the determination to use what I have learned from Get Assertive in my everyday life. I wish I had had the opportunity to have taken this course forty years ago when I was in my twenties. It would have made positive changes in my relationships with family and friends. Vivian, thank you for showing me how to get more enjoyment out of life.

Caught Off Guard: One Father's Memories
by Steve Hinnefeld
© 1999 Midwifery Today, Inc. All Rights Reserved.
[Editor's note: This article first appeared in Midwifery Today Issue 51, Autumn 1999.]
No other joy I have experienced can compare with watching my child come wriggling out into the world and with being present for the breathtaking first moments of a new human being. Almost all my memories of the births of my three children are memories that I treasure.
But some birth memories are less pleasant, and those, too, are instructive and worth sharing. One involves the birth of my daughter, Amelia, twelve years ago.
My wife Theresa went into labor while she was at work on the afternoon of February 11, 1987. We met at home, then after waiting a couple of hours, took our three-year-old son to a friend's house and went to the hospital, two blocks away.
We were feeling fairly confident. Our son's birth, at the same hospital, had gone quickly and well, helped along by a supportive and experienced OB nurse. And we had talked to the doctor who would be delivering the baby, explaining that we wanted as little intervention as possible. "Don't worry, I'll support you 100 percent on that," he had said.
When we got to the hospital, however,the doctor wasn't there. And the nurse who was assigned to Theresa insisted that she had to be connected to an electronic fetal monitor. The baby's heart rate was a little elevated, she explained in a no-nonsense manner, when we balked at the idea. "Sorry, it's hospital policy," she said, insisting the machine had to be used at least until the doctor arrived.
So a large, uncomfortable belt was trapped unceremoniously around Theresa's contracting belly, connecting her to a machine that I recall being as big as a chest of drawers. The machine beeped and whistled. Lights blinked on and off. Mysterious numbers flashed on digital screens.
The entire effect was discomforting, distracting and annoying, at least to me. I don't know how long it went on. It seemed like a long time, although we were only at the hospital for about two hours before our daughter was born. Eventually the doctor showed up, but—for this I've not forgiven him—he went first to the machine and checked all the readings and dials. Only then did he turn to Theresa and release her from that oversized belt.
When our third child, Kevin, was born three years later, we were ready. A different nurse insisted the monitor was needed. "No, sorry," we said. "We don't want it." The nurse seemed to accept our refusal of the device. Then, every fifteen minutes or so, she came back and gently tried to persuade Theresa to be hooked up. Again we said, "Sorry, no." Finally we agreed to a compromise: The nurse could periodically hold the sensor against Theresa's belly and the sound on the machine was turned all the way down—no belt and no beeps.
Now our children are a long way from being babies, and it's sometimes hard for me to recall all the details—who was born when, how much they weighed and so on. I remain grateful that they were, and are, in good health, and that I had the privilege of being part of their birth.
I understand why lawyers and accountants write policies that promote defensive medicine. I realize that hospital employees have no real choice but to carry out those policies. And I accept that my memories may not be completely accurate. Theresa, in fact, recalls this business with the monitor of not being that big a deal.
But I'm still troubled sometimes by the memory of allowing myself to be caught off guard and failing to be a force-ful advocate for my wife and baby. And that beeping, flashing machine remains for me a symbol of how technology and balance-sheet decision-making can sometimes overwhelm our own choices about our health, and our children's.
Steve Hinnefeld, the married father of three, writes for the Herald-Times in Bloomington, Indiana. He covers the Indiana legislature, including the effort this year to legalize direct-entry midwifery in the state.

" The location is perfect! Very close to everything. The personnel was very friendly and helpful. We even received nice gifts when we left. The main host was very helpful with planning tours and trips and even helped with our trip from and to Jaisalmer. So overall very positive on almost everything. If I had to come up with something that could be better, it would be that sometimes the wifi connection was weak. I would definitely recommend this guest house! Milo & Nick "- Анонимный

Fwiw, I didn't even recognize that the tongue thing was two girls until I removed it and saw the url title. (Guess I didn't look especially close.) I went to remove it thinking it was a guy & a girl.
So let me fix your comment:
Images of any sort displaying people licking each other's tongues = inappropriate for jazzfanz.
At least according to Colton.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - Florida Gov. Rick Scott issued a statement on his mother's death.
Esther Scott, 84, died Tuesday in Kansas City, Mo., where she had been hospitalized since last month.
Scott's statement read: "My mom, Esther, was one of the only constants in my life. We moved many times and my parents struggled financially, but mom always made sure we went to school and we went to church. Those were not optional. My mom taught me that there is no limit to what you can accomplish if you put a lot of hard work behind your dreams. She was gracious and kind, and later in life, she was always up for another adventure. She wanted to keep traveling and see the world as much as she could. I am grateful to have had such an inspirational and loving mother who was a real example of living the American Dream. While she is already deeply missed by our family, she lives on in our hearts forever. Ann and I thank all of you who have sent your prayers, well wishes and encouragement for our family during this time of loss."
A funeral will be held on Saturday.

Oil prices rose on Tuesday after the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) said world oil demand would grow faster than expected in 2013 and OPEC raised its outlook for the amount of crude it will need to pump this year.
The EIA increased its forecast for demand growth after the 12-member Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries said in its own monthly market report that world oil consumption would expand more quickly than previously thought.
"Overall, I would say the OPEC report is constructive and mildly bullish based on the demand forecast," said Dominick Chirichella, senior partner at Energy Management Institute in New York.
Brent crude rose 53 cents to settle at $118.66 a barrel, after finishing lower on Monday.
U.S. crude gained 48 cents to $97.51 a barrel.
The RBOB gasoline contract rebounded after losses on Monday following a less-damaging-than-expected blizzard in the U.S. Northeast over the weekend.
The EIA upped its forecast by 110,000 barrels per day to 1.05 million bpd in 2013, taking global demand to 90.2 million bpd this year.
Supply worries stemming from conflict in the Middle East persisted on Tuesday, as investors eyed Iran's nuclear program more than North Korea's third nuclear test.
Tensions eased on Tuesday when Iran acknowledged it was converting some of its higher-grade enriched uranium into reactor fuel, a move that could help prevent a dispute with the West over its nuclear program hitting a crisis in mid-2013.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Monday the new centrifuges Iran was installing for uranium enrichment could cut by a third the time needed to create a nuclear bomb. Tehran says its nuclear programme is for peaceful energy purposes.
Oil markets also focused on weekly inventory data in the United States, the world's top oil consumer. U.S. commercial crude oil stockpiles are expected to have risen by 2.4 million barrels last week, a Reuters poll showed.
Distillate stocks, which include heating oil and diesel fuel, were projected to be down 1.6 million barrels, while gasoline inventories were seen up 300,000 barrels.
The American Petroleum Institute, an industry group, is due to release its weekly report at 4:30 p.m. EST (2130 GMT). The EIA follows with its own figures on Wednesday.
