I like our core a lot up until 8 players.
The rest not so much but I'm totally fine with Hansbrough and Stephenson getting their last chance to prove themselves and Young as a cheaper and IMO slightly worse D Jones type of player.
Yep he "stunk", 19 and 11 against Chicago in the first preseason game while playing against Noah and Boozer
Game 2: he got 24 points and 14 rebounds against the Bulls again what a horrible player....
I guess that if Tyler with this numbers "stunk" everybody on the Pacers during this preseason has "stunk" the joint too.

Do it for me, so I don't have to see someone I have blocked get quoted.
It's a new day for Pacers Basketball.
I think talent wise the 2002-2003 team was hands down the most talented roster we ever had. It was the same team from 04 except replace Scott Pollard with Brad Miller. Brad Miller >>>Scott Pollard. I even vividly remember Mark Boyle saying as much on one of the radio broadcasts and Slick agreed. Obviously talent alone doesn't make a good TEAM though as the 03 team swan dived after the allstar break and limped out of the playoffs in the first round.
I guess he got away with bashing Luck so much he thinks he can now bash the PD equivalent of the sacred cow.
I agree....let's come back to Earth here. With Mahinmi's penchant for fouling....I really hope that Vogel realizes that Mahinmi has 6 ( not 5 fouls ) . But in reality...I still see Hansbrough getting roughly 16 mpg if we look at a split of 28 mpg each for West and Hibbert and 24 mpg for Mahinmi. I think that what will limit Mahinmi's minutes is not fatigue...it will be foul trouble. But I really hope that we go with Granger to play some backup PF minutes and limit Hansbrough to 12 mpg where he can come in and provide some really high energy off the bench. I really would like to see a really a small # of minutes with an athletic SG/SF/PF lineup of PG/Green/Granger can do.
Ash from Army of Darkness: Good...Bad...I'm the guy with the gun.
With Mahinmi, how much do we really need him to play? And he has improved his fouling every year in the league. I think we could squeeze 16-20 minutes out of him not problem.
And Vogel could frontload his minutes as well. So if Mahinmi is having a good game of not fouling he can play more minutes. If hes having one of those games, then Tyler or Plumlee gets some minutes.
And really I am not sure why people are so worried about our Benches D. Our Bench is better offensively, and our bench last year on D was horrible against Miami. At least this lineup might be able to score some points against them.
Frankly I prefer the idea of our bench being run and gun. Pushing the pace. So when opposing teams try and play their stars against out Bench. Just have them trade points, maybe let the other team make a small dent in any possible leads. But then that leaves their stars more worn out when we put the starters back in.
Yeah I got confused with the schedule, my point still stand anyway, thanks for letting me know.
Besides defense and rebounding I want to see Ian continue to score inside like he has during the preseason. That puts a lot of pressure on the other teams defense and does not allow them to key on the perimeter players when Roy is out.
Has he really looked that good offensively? Thanks to my lame duck cardinals i hadnt got a chance to watch any games?
Yes, about 1 million times better than what I expected & about 1 billion times better than Lou.
If Roy sees more minutes, that means Mahinmi will almost certainly be playing against other bench players. Part of the issue last year was that Roy was playing fewer minutes, which meant Lou was playing against starters as much as bench players.
Playing our starters against other starters, and our bench against other benches - I like the match-ups.
EDIT - another part of the problem with Lou was his complete lack of offense and being under-sized for a center
It's a new day for Pacers Basketball.
Ian has been the breakaway suprise of the off-season for me. I already had very high expectations of Green after watching him in New Jersey last season, but Ian, man, he looks like he could be a starter on some teams, and is still relatively young. Some of Ian's post moves have been very, very advanced, and he made Marc Gasol look like an ******* trying to guard him in the post, forcing him to foul 3 times in a short period and scoring twice on him.
Getting a guy like him for 4 million dollars, given the market for 7 footers who can walk and chew gum at the same time, may turn out to be one of the biggest steals in recent Pacers memory. I love, love, love getting a guy like Gerald Green, who I think can legitimately challenge for 6MOY for 3 million per too, great, shrewd moves. I'm near to the point of wanting to phase Tylers minutes out and have Ian as the primary backup at the 4 and 5 position alongside either Roy or West at almost all times, with Tyler getting minutes in blowouts and nights were people have foul trouble. His mobility has impressed me the most, he'll be an upgrade defending the pick and roll over Roy or West, and that could be huge some nights. He and Green look like they'll be a great 1 2 punch off of the bench every night.
I like alot of what I see from Augustin, but man, he's even worse than DC on D, hopefully Vogel will find a way to hide him on that end, because opponents are getting whereever they want against him every night, there are so many good point guards that it could hurt us if he ends up playing against especially starters. Love his handles, speed on offense and ability to spread the floor though. I think we'll see a shorter rotation this year, with both Ian and Green playing 20+ minutes. They offer real skills that in certain situations may make sense to sub in for certain starters, Mobility for Ian, Shooting and shot creation for Gerald.

I said that the day we signed him I was shocked that he signed for so cheap. Getting a starting quality C(not a top 10 C by any means) for 4m was by far my favorite move of the off season. Going into the offseason my hope was to get Dalembert who the Rockets were trying to give away. But getting Ian was much better he is younger and was a better fit. To be honest I didnt even know Ian was a free agent until he signed. By far the day Ian signed was the happiest I had been all summer. Green will put up better numbers and be flashy but Ian will make a bigger difference than people realize he is really good at what he does.
Please stick with something reasonable. On offense, I'd say that Ian looks about 750,000,000 times better than Lou.
This space for rent.
After finally catching a pre-season game, and seeing Mahinmi, Green, and Augustin for myself, I felt like re-visiting this thread was a good idea.
We really did upgrade the bench.
When Hill and Granger get fully healthy, the 8-man rotation on this team will be very good. And I don't mean just adequate. I mean, our top 8 is going to be equal to or better than anyone else's top 8. Other teams may have 2, 3, even 4 players. But we have 8 guys that can start. After that, Tyler, Miles, Lance, Ben, Pendergraph... clearly not the same level, but when you start complaining at guy #9 or #10, you're in good shape.
It's a new day for Pacers Basketball.
I'm not gonna pretend to be anything close to a Mahinmi expert, but I've gotta assume going to teams with coaches and cultures like San Antonio and Dallas had to do wonders for him. Goes to show how important culture is to reaching potential. Remember how AWESOME! Hassan Whiteside was gonna be? Hell, look at John Wall.
Mahinmi's vocality impresses me more than anything. When's the last time you saw a 7 foot bench big directing people where to go on the floor?
I was really, really skeptical, and I'm not reaching any definitive conclusion based on preseason. But hot damn, Mahinmi's the Player X thunderbird always talked about.
Lifelong pacers fan
In hindsight it did not work so good....
But I really like a rotation of G Hill, PG24, West, Lance, Hibbert, Granger, CJWatson, S Hill, and ... IanM, Plumlee OR whoever?
This team just needed a guy off the bench that could hit a jump shot. They never got it.
Granger could be key to a really GREAT season next year. If he can check his EGO Indiana is LOADED. If he is going to be a diva then he will be traded.
Regardless, I love the way this team is shaping up.
It's amazing how a contract as small as 3.5M has forced us to be "creative" in order to improve our roster this season. And really, Ian's contract isn't looking that good right now either, though he'll have a shot at trying to earn it next year in the playoffs. These aren't Murphy/Dunleavy level moves, but they are really hurtful on a small scale. I like to keep repeating it, but I thought last offseason was the worst, pound for pound, in recent memory.
When Bird was asked at the presser last week if he thought Donnie did a good job, his reply was something like "Yes, we made it to the ECF, didn't we"? That's a textbook example of how to be diplomatic.

American Diabetes Association Alert Day will be held on Tuesday March 26th. This is a one-day, national "wake-up call" asking people to take the Diabetes Risk Test to find out if they are at risk for developing type 2 diabetes.
Diabetes is a serious disease that strikes nearly 26 million children and adults in the United States, and a quarter of them-seven million-do not even know they have it. An additional 79 million, or one in three American adults, have prediabetes, which puts them at high risk for developing type 2 diabetes. Twenty-six percent of residents in Broward County - 463,000 people - have prediabetes. Unfortunately, diagnosis often comes seven to 10 years after the onset of the disease, after disabling and even deadly complications have had time to develop. Therefore, early diagnosis is critical to successful treatment and delaying or preventing some of its complications such as heart disease, blindness, kidney disease, stroke, amputation and death.
The American Diabetes Association has made a strong commitment to primary prevention of type 2 diabetes by increasing awareness of prediabetes and actively engaging individuals in preventative behaviors like weight loss, physical activity and healthy eating. Alert Day is a singular moment in time in which we can raise awareness and prompt action among the general public - particularly those at risk.
Everyone should be aware of the risk factors for type 2 diabetes. People who are overweight, under active (living a sedentary lifestyle) and over the age of 45 should consider themselves at risk for the disease. African Americans, Hispanics/Latinos, Native Americans, Asian Americans, Pacific Islanders and people who have a family history of the disease also are at an increased risk for type 2 diabetes. Studies have shown that type 2 diabetes can often be prevented or delayed by losing just 7 percent of body weight (such as 15 pounds if you weigh 200) through regular physical activity (30 minutes a day, five days a week) and healthy eating. By understanding your risk, you can take the necessary steps to help prevent the onset of type 2 diabetes.
For 25 years, the American Diabetes Association has set aside one special day for people to learn if they are at risk for developing type 2 diabetes. Some major County employers such as Broward County Government, Broward Schools, JM Family Enterprises, American Express, Humana, and NSU are already on board with Alert Day activities. Humana Guidance Center will be open to the public and conducting screenings from 11 am to 1 pm at 7666 Nob Hill Road Tamarac, FL 33321. Nova Southeastern University also will be conducting screenings in the Taft Center and will be open to the public from 11:00 am to 1:00 pm. NSU is located at 3301 College Avenue, Fort-Lauderdale-Davie, FL 33314. Walgreen's will offer risk assessments and free diabetes A1C testing for the public at the following locations from 8:00 am to 8:00 pm:
3015 S. University Dr.
(954) 475-9222
1201 S. Federal Hwy.
Ft. Lauderdale
(954) 523-1486
8790 W. McNab Rd.
(954) 726-6008
1751 Bonaventure Blvd.
(954) 385-0014
13800 Pines Blvd.
Pembroke Pines
(954) 442-3202.
Ft. Lauderdale
(954) 523-1486
5701 N.W. 183rd St.
The Diabetes Risk Test asks users to answer simple questions about weight, age, family history and other potential risks for prediabetes or type 2 diabetes. Preventative tips are provided for everyone who takes the test, including encouraging those at high risk to talk with their health care provider.
You can be part of the movement to Stop Diabetes® and get your free Diabetes Risk Test (English or Spanish) by visiting us on Facebook, stopdiabetes.com or by calling 1-888-DIABETES ext. 3011. Although Alert Day is a one-day event, the Diabetes Risk Test is available year-round.

5 Ways Startups Are Upending the Car Business
In mid-November, the same weekend that Nascar's Chase for the Sprint Cup series came to a close at the Homestead-Miami Speedway, a very different kind of race was taking place at a brand-new track in Austin, Texas. The Formula One United States Grand Prix has not been held since 2007, and naysayers may yawn that the expensive, twisty, turny, highly technical F1 racing that is so popular around the world can't succeed in the States. The sport reached its peak relevance in the U.S. in the '60s and early '70s when the Grand Prix took place at Watkins Glen and American drivers such as Dan Gurney competed with Europe's best. The $350 million Circuit of the Americas (COTA) track in Austin, Texas, is a big and bold argument that F1 can bring back American crowds. And COTA is well-positioned to succeed where past efforts have failed.
The track is an all-in bet on F1. Past U.S. courses, such as Indianapolis from 2000 to 2007, have repurposed oval tracks, but COTA is purpose-built for F1. It's a thrilling circuit, with blind rises; a huge, 200-mph straight that dumps into a reversing-apex corner at turn 12; and scads of space to pass. Fireworks flew in the inaugural contest, with constant midpack passes and drivers sliding all over (and off) the track. McLaren driver Lewis Hamilton proved the best tactician, out-braking other drivers through corners and sneaking by F1 points leader Sebastian Vettel of Red Bull/Renault-Infiniti to win the race.
Lasting success for the sport in the States largely depends on whether American racing fans will geek out to the engineering behind cars that have tiny, 2.4-liter hybrid-assist V-8s that rev to 18,000 rpm and can push a car from 0 to 60 in under 2 seconds. But on race day 117,000 people paid an average of $400 to attend the sold-out contest. What's still missing? American drivers and teams. If F1 maintains a foothold in the U.S., that will likely change. With all the investment in the COTA track and talk of another circuit in Weehawken, N.J., in 2014 Formula One racing in the U.S. seems to be trending up rather than out.
The 3.4-mile, 20-turn Circuit of the Americas track in Austin, Texas, is constructed like a 747 runway. It was excavated 10 feet down and then layered up with sand, clay, gravel, crushed limestone, surface treatment, more limestone, and, finally, asphalt. In all, 3.25 million cubic yards of earth were moved during construction.
Race Recap
1. Front Stretch
On the first straightaway of the race Ferrari's Fernando Alonso reached 180 mph, then cut hard right across the cars he'd just passed, forcing them to brake early. He braked exceedingly late into Turn 1 and dropped to 60 mph under 5 g's of force.
2. Back Stretch
On lap four McLaren's Lewis Hamilton fired out of Turn 10 and adjusted his rear wing to make his vehicle more aerodynamic. This helped him catch up to Red Bull's Mark Webber. He then out-broke Webber into Turn 12 and forced him wide to retake second.
3. Chicanes
Sebastian Vettel of team Red Bull was in the lead when he hit the chicanes on lap 42, but he got stuck trying to lap a much slower Narain Karthikeyan (HRT-Cosworth). This allowed Hamilton in the McLaren Mercedes to overtake Vettel 4 seconds later to clinch first.

OROVILLE — Many supporters of the slain bicyclist Rick Magee said they hoped to prevent future hit-and-run accidents, particularly those involving bicycles.
About 10 cyclists rode from Bidwell Park in Chico to the Butte County Courthouse in Oroville to attend Wednesday's sentencing of Anton Richard Mardesich for felony hit-and-run causing death.
Janine Rood, executive director of Chico Velo, said on the courthouse steps that they wanted to show that "cyclists care what happens to other cyclists." She said they also wanted to encourage drivers to do the right thing and stop after an accident.
Pete Hollingsworth, a board member of the Butte Bicycle Coalition, rode a bike with a handmade "Bike for Rick" placard. He wanted to express concern for pedestrian and bicycle safety. He said the group didn't feel the initially recommended sentence of six months of jail and probation was adequate.
District Attorney Mike Ramsey said it was important for people to stop following an accident, in part to assess their physical condition. He noted Mardesich faced a felony because he left the scene, but it would've likely been a misdemeanor had he remained.
"We always want to make sure people can use our highways and byways safely," Ramsey said.
Some of Magee's supporters had wanted a stronger sentence to send a message, but the defense noted Wednesday the sentencing wasn't meant for such things.
Friends and family of Magee set up a website at nohitandruns.org. The site, which states "We've had Enough Hit-and-Runs," provided information about the Nov. 14 crash that killed Magee and encouraged people to write letters to the court before Mardesich's sentencing.
With the sentencing over, Magee friend Richard Charter said it's unknown what will happen with the website. He said it may be redesigned to promote a hit-and-run bill introduced by Assemblyman Mike Gatto, D-Los Angeles.
Assembly Bill 184, which is currently in committee, would extend the statute of limitations in hit-and-run cases involving severe injury or death to allow prosecution of defendants up to a year after being identified as a suspect. The statute of limitations for most felonies is three years after an incident.

Topic: my dad
My Dad is now getting very weak, his appetite is very poor and he is mostly sleeping. In the last few days he has become confused. My heart is breaking. Since my Dad's diagnosis in July 2005 I have visited this site regulary, more recently I have felt utter despair and extreme sadness to read the heart wrenching testimonies from cc sufferers and family members on the blogs and the discussion board. I feel extreme anger that this devastating cancer is overlooked by cancer research scientists - I have seen little progress in treatments available since I began researching into this disease just over 2 years ago. The creators of this website and the foundation have worked tirelessly to raise awareness of this disease and to provide an arena for sufferers to get emotional support despite having suffered the loss of Mark - Stacie, Rick and all those assisting in the Foundation, thankyou.
This may sound like a farewell speech, maybe it is - I don't know if I have the emotional strength to keep checking the board, right now I feel overwhelming utter despair and extreme sadness. I have endured over 2 years of anxiety, fear and pain watching my dear Dad fight for his life. My Dad has been so brave, we have shared a mixture of extreme highs or lows. Life was never the same after diagnosis.
I am thankful that we found Dr Nesslehut in Germany, since my Dad's recurrance in April of last year, I believe that Dr Nesslehut gave us more time, more quality time, free from harsh side effects. Only a couple of weeks ago my dad has a ct scan which again, showed stable disease. My Dad's current weak state is due, I believe, from extreme weight loss (cachexia). Having read up on this condition there appears to be no effective treatment available. the confusion is due to a combination of low hb and raised urea level in the body (as my dad becomes weaker he is not taking in enough fluids). Today my Dad is due to go into hospital (as a day patient, I wouldn't want him to spend another night in an NHS hospital) for a blood transfusion, please be thinking of us today, hoping that my Dad might regain some strength. I will never give up hoping that I can turn this thing around.

So I got to thinking recently and realized one of my biggest problems is that I have been starting my pull way too soon. I was watching some videos and realized that everyone I was watching would wait until their front foot was planted to begin their rip and as the weight shifted forward, they would accelerate through, where as I was doing it all almost simultaneously. I decided I would type of exactly what I do and see the order you would change things. For this throw I will be doing a RHBH X-Step drive.
1. Begin the run up.
2. Plant my right foot (1st X-step)
3. Rotate my hips and shoulders so my back is rotated more towards the basket, while stepping behind my right foot with my left foot.
4. Begin my reach back somewhere while doing all of this.
5. Begin planting my right foot while rotating my hips.
6. Start my pull through and shoulder rotation.
7. As all my weight gets to my right foot I snap my wrist and throw.

A nursery has been closed temporarily over an investigation into 'safeguarding concerns'.
Ofsted has temporarily suspended its registration to give time to investigate.
Police said they received an allegation about a nursery in Kingston on Friday. There have been no arrests.
A spokesman for Active Learning Kingston in Victoria Road said only that it had informed parents by email and in person last night about today's indefinite closure.
A parent of a child at the nursery said: "The communication has been extremely badly handled. The parents are getting a feeling of complete stone-walling.
"You've got 100-plus kids that have been massively let down."
Rajan Giritharan, a father-of-three from New Malden whose youngest son goes to the nursery, said: "I'm a bit concerned. It could be anything. It could be health and safety or they have employed somebody without checking.
"If it has gone to police it can't be trivial. We need to know the nature of the allegation."
Yesterday, parents picking up their children from the nursery were met by a senior principal from the Active Learning chain, who told them the centre may be closed for weeks.
One parent asked on Twitter: "Do you have any info why#ActiveLearningKingston shut down today? Police investigation but no info to parents #Safeguarding"
Active Learning also have nurseries in Chiswick, Crouch End, Dorking, Fulham, Southgate and West Hampstead.
The Kingston branch opened in Victoria Hall in 2008 and is open from 7.30am to 6.30pm 51 weeks a year.
It has a two-storey building with a disabled lift, bathroom, kitchen and staff facilities, three enclosed outdoor play areas and a web cam system in areas where children play, according to its last Ofsted report in 2011.
It is registered for up to 98 children with 23 members of staff.
At its last inspection in 2011 Ofsted inspectors said staff knew how to safeguard children and had a secure understanding of child protection issues but written risk assessments were not reviewed in line with legal requirements due to an 18 months gap between risk assessments.
A spokesman for Kingston Council confirmed the closure and said: "The council will support families in finding alternative childcare."
He said Kingston's Family Information Service could be contacted on 020 8547 5215 if parents need to arrange alternative childcare.
Anyone who has a concern of a safeguarding nature is asked to contact Kingston's Single Point of Access team on 020 8547 5008.
Are you affected by the closure? Call the newsdesk on 020 8722 6318 or email email@example.com

Panera Bread franchisee Pangenera LLC recently presented a donation to Second Harvest Food Bank of Santa Clara and San Mateo counties that will provide more than 2,000 meals to people struggling with hunger.
Mountain View Mayor John Inks and Councilman Mike Kasperzak were among those who attended the ribbon-cutting ceremony and check presentation Aug. 9 for Pangenera's new Panera Bread bakery-cafe opening at 1035-A El Monte Ave. in Mountain View.
At the grand-opening promotion in June, the bakery-cafe pledged $1 to the Second Harvest Food Bank for every customer who joins Panera's loyalty program.
"We're thrilled to serve our guests at this new location and proud to support local hunger relief efforts with the help of Second Harvest Food Bank and our customers," said Jeff Burrill, Panera Bread franchisee. "We've received such a positive response from the community since opening our doors, and we look forward to bringing them more opportunities to 'Live Consciously and Eat Deliciously.'"
Panera also donates unsold bread and baked goods to hunger relief organizations through its Day-End Dough-Nation program.
Eleven Bay Area Panera Bread bakery-cafes have teamed with Second Harvest Food Bank, directing their Community Breadbox cash donations to the cause. The Community Breadbox program ensures that the donations benefit the community. Collection containers at Panera locations provide food and basic necessities for those in need. Cash donations made by customers at the participating cafes are delivered to the Food Bank monthly.

Sauce is a magical ingredient that binds foods together and adds juices to your dish. Saucepans are fantastic tools for preparing delicious sauces in your own kitchen, so they are important basics for your cookware collection. Williams-Sonoma carries a large selection of saucepans in different sizes and materials – from copper to cast iron. You can also find a wide variety of accessories and utensils to help make your sauces successful.
A saucepan is essentially a small, round cooking pot with tall sides. Its small size makes it ideal for making a variety of sauces, gravies and glazes, and it can be useful for warming up milk or melting butter. It has a long handle, which makes it easy to lift it off of the element and pour your sauce. Some saucepans have pouring spouts on the edges, which prevent drips and spills while pouring. A saucier is a similar type of pot, but it has a rounded bottom. This keeps ingredients from sticking to the corners between the bottom and sides, making it easier to whisk and blend the sauce.
Some saucepans come in specialty forms. Jam pans are slightly larger and wider, and they have two handles to make it easier to grip and pour larger batches of jam. They also usually include volume markings, which make it easier to prepare jam recipes. Butter warmers are smaller than standard saucepans, which is useful if you want to melt a small amount of butter. Sugar pots are also smaller and consist of materials that conduct heat easily. This keeps sugar from crystallizing and sticking to the sides.
Many saucepans and sauciers are made of stainless-steel. This material is durable and easy to clean, which makes it a good all-purpose cookware item. You can clean most stainless-steel cookware in the dishwasher, but it is also easy to wash by hand. The metal is harder than many other metals, so it does not scratch easily when you use metal whisks, ladles or spoons.
Copper is another popular material for saucepans. It heats quickly and distributes heat evenly, which prevents burning and scalding. This can be helpful when preparing sauces as many recipes are sensitive to small changes in temperature and too much heat can cause ingredients to burn or stick to the bottom of the pot. Copper cookware requires slightly more care than stainless-steel, but with some extra attention, you can keep your cookware attractive for many years. Wash copper your saucepan by hand with gentle soap and occasionally use a polish on the outer part of the pot. Use synthetic utensils when preparing sauces as metal utensils may scratch the interior of your pot.
Some stainless-steel saucepans have copper cores, which blend the best aspects of both materials. Like copper saucepans, they conduct heat easily and evenly. However, they are easy to clean and maintain. Some copper saucepans include stainless-steel linings. Although you should still take care while cleaning your pot, you can use metal utensils while preparing your recipes.
Nonstick saucepans are popular items as nonstick coatings prevent ingredients from sticking to the interior. There are several different options when it comes to non-stick coatings. Some cookware items include coatings such as Teflon. Others feature ceramic coatings, which tend to be environmentally friendly and durable. When using nonstick cookware, always use softer wood or synthetic utensils. Wash your cookware by hand using gentle soap and a brush or sponge designed for nonstick surfaces.
We offer a variety of accessories that you can use with your saucepan. Ladles and large spoons are useful for preparing and serving sauces and gravies. Whisks can help you remove lumps and blend ingredients thoroughly. Slotted spoons and strainers can remove lumps and flavoring ingredients such as bay leaves. Potholders and oven mitts help you safely grasp hot handles or lids.

Bass Auditions?
Any news on auditioning a bass player? Who can I get in contact with regarding this? I am a bass player with 20 years experience on stage, in the studio, and on the road. I would definitely consider this an opportunity of a lifetime.
Replies to This Posting
Re: Bass Auditions?
To find a new teamplayer, in this case maybe a bassplayer isn't that simple.
For me, a new bandmember has to be a kind of soulmate.Someone, who feels the music like i do,and also has the same interest in music.Beside that ,there has to be a kind of magical click between all of the bandmembers, everybody has to have a wow feeling with the new bandmember.
And to find someone like that could take a while.
You can maybe play as good as John Entwistle or Bootsy Collins, but that doesn't mean your the wright man for the job. The most important thing is to play in function of the music.
If that means not to play for 1 minute so that the song sounds better that way, you just shouldn't play. Also listening to the other bandmembers idea's could be a real bless for the song.
But hey, maybe Jane's Addiction isn't looking for a new bassplayer and are just exploring all
possibility's.Maybe they're going more electronic, using sequencers and stuff to create a whole new sound. That's what whe're going to do in our new band.We used to play 70's rock and stuff.But nobody is waiting for that kind of music. So we decided to go for more electronica and stuff to create a complete new sound. I'm a bass player butt maybe i'll have to play keyboards from time to time, i'm looking forward to that.No limits, total freedom, that's what i like about making music.
Cheers (don't mind my bad english)

I like the Neocell products. I take Neocell bovine collagen but read about the benefits of fish collagen for the skin, but I did not want a product with shark collagen due to the decimation of sharks, which are a keystone species and will affect life on Earth if we kill them off. Please consider this before you buy shark collagen.

This is a really good product. I have been taking collagen for about a year now as it stops my adult acne and it really does make a difference with skin, hair and nails. I cannot afford not to have this product.
positive effect on skin and joints

shipment was carried out very fast, thank you I am taking collagen as a supplement since some time now and I can really feel the positive effect on both beauty and health. I went through chemotherapy and my skin was sagging and tended to impurities. I also had problems with my joints. Both is getting better now. I think that taking collagen helped.
So Far I like the Results

I have tried a few different supplements for hair & skin, but this has given me the most visible results so far. After a week, I could feel my lips plump up. My skin actually looks tighter and smoother especially around my waist area. My face feels softer and smoother. I am 57! I will continue to take this and see what happens in the coming weeks.
wonderful result

Once he sang - I wish I was eighteen again. Well, this collagen works - bones aint craking that much. And the fish collagen absorbs better than the others. So, it's a good deal, and the price is not unbearable.

That Big Brother is watching you is not exactly news. Looming, however, are the prospects of him watching you from a hovering drone.
Drones are unmanned aircraft used by the U.S. military and intelligence agencies not only for attacking terrorists, but for surveillance.
Now they're being considered for use by civilian government agencies. The Daily Californian reported in October that the Alameda County Sheriff's Office "may be the first in California to invest in drones" for surveillance "only for emergency use and proactive policing."
The action has prompted the city of Berkeley to consider making itself a "No Drone Zone." An ordinance banning use of police drones was tabled last week for further study. "The Council had an expansive discussion and policy debate about it," Eric Brenman told us; he's the secretary of the city's Peace and Justice Commission, which authored the proposal.
For now, the council decided to hold a workshop on drones and refer the matter to the Police Review Commission and the Disaster and Fire Safety Commission. The drone ban, if passed, could include exceptions for public safety.
The exceptions are the rub. With governments, small exceptions have a way of growing ever-wider. Currently, in most circumstances, warrants to search a person or building must be obtained from a judge, except if someone's life is in immediate danger.
But with drones, "fleeing from a crime could be considered an emergency for which police need to put up a drone right away," Amie Stepanovich told us; she's an associate litigation counsel at the Electronic Privacy Information Center and has testified before Congress on drones and privacy. "Drones also can be used for search-and-rescue missions and for fighting fires."
She urged that expanded government use "needs to be defined better on when drones would be operated, and for what purpose."
She added that another concern is privately operated drones. Right now, only government can use them. But the Federal Aviation Administration in 2015 will begin granting private licenses to fly drones. That will raise even greater privacy concerns than private-sector satellite photos or the Google Street View cars that record everything at ground level.
Under California law, going onto people's private property and spying on them is illegal. But just observing someone generally is not. However, California also has anti-stalking laws. And in 2009, Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger signed an anti-paparazzi law that, according to the Huffington Post, "permits lawsuits against media outlets that pay for and make first use of material they knew was improperly obtained."
Ms. Stepanovich said each state will have to work out drone laws and "what level of intrusion is possible."
In Orange County, drones currently are not being used or considered by the Orange County Sheriff's Department, Director of Media Relations Jim Amormino told us. In the county's two largest cities, Anaheim and Santa Ana, police said they also had no drones, nor plans for them.
In a society that seems to have little remaining privacy, drones need to be monitored and regulated to prevent abuses.

I don't usually cry when I read the Record-Bee, but I did last Friday.
There was a letter in the Annie's Mailbox syndicated column about a young man who believes that his grandmother's death was hastened because she received hospice care.
I cried because I hadn't realized that some people still believe such bizarre myths about hospice.
I cried because I thought of all the people who might be denying someone they love the chance to have specialized care at the end of life because they believe the myth.
I wish that I had known about hospice when my mother was dying 17 years ago. I wish that mom and I could have had their services to make her last days more comfortable and to take some pressure off of me and the rest of the family, who had no idea how to care for a dying person.
I didn't even know she was dying until I spoke to her oncologist and asked when mom was going to start getting better from all the treatments she was getting. When he told me that she would never recover and that she was dying I was in shock. I didn't know what to do, I didn't understand the signs and I didn't know how to care for her. No one told me anything, I had to guess. I could have used some expert advice and help, but I didn't know about hospice then. It was after mom died that a friend asked me why I hadn't called hospice.
"What's hospice?", I asked.
That's when I began to learn that hospice care is all about comfort, assistance and support for the person who is dying plus the family and loved ones who surround them.
These people are trained; they've studied; they've worked with, and have experience in the entire process of dying. They are there to help, and ease you through the experience. It's too late for me and my mom.
I didn't learn about hospice in time for her. But it's not too late for people who still have their moms and dads and other people they love.
It's not too late to learn how hospice can help you when you need them.
Don't let it be too late for someone you love, because, believe me, the thought that you could have done something better will haunt you. And you'll never have the chance to go back and do it over.

text: GW sweeps to AAA state volleyball title By Tommy R. Atkinson November 10, 2012 Story Share Lawrence Pierce GW's Sydney Downey (22) and Hannah Shreve (5) defend at the net against Musselman's Taylor Lord. CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- For George Washington's nine seniors, it was mission accomplished Saturday afternoon.The Patriots swept past Musselman 25-21, 25-23 and 25-13 to capture the Class AAA championship at the state high school volleyball tournament. A crowd of about 600, including a healthy portion clad in GW's maroon, attended at the Civic Center.GW (47-10-3) won its fifth title to go along with back-to-back crowns won in 1981-82 and 2005-2006. Several of the Patriots wore a black armband with a white "73'' emblazoned on it for freshman Drew Morton, a GW football player who was killed in a car accident earlier during the school year.GW's senior class lost in the opening round of states as sophomores then fell in the semifinals last year before Saturday's triumph.The Patriots dispatched defending state champion Spring Valley in Friday's semifinals after the Timberwolves had beaten them in last year's semifinals.Musselman won the Queen of the Hill regular-season tournament at GW the past two years."We came together perfectly,'' said GW 6-foot-3 senior Hannah Shreve, who has committed to West Virginia University. "We've been on a long journey the past four years and we just wanted it this year really bad."We had a talk before the game that we were going to come together and just do our job. It feels great to play the last game and feel great about it.'' Patriots coach Missy Smith, who has been at the helm of the last three championships, also received the National Federation Coaches Association Active Award after her team's victory. The award recognizes coaches for their dedication, commitment to excellence and promotion of the ideas of interscholastic athletics."They picked the best day to play their best game,'' said Smith of her players. "We didn't play as well in the first two rounds of states, but today they would not be denied."Just heart and guts. I can't speak enough about this group and how much they have of that. I can't coach that. I can't teach them that. That's what they bring to the table. They brought a lot of it today.''GW took an 18-14 lead in the opening game and never gave up the lead in taking it 25-21 on junior Tori Strong's kill. The second game was tighter as the Applemen tied it at 23-all on a rare unforced Patriots' error off a bad set. GW, though, won the last two points on back-to-back kills from Shreve and senior Lexi Mourier for a 25-23 win.GW jumped out to an 8-0 lead in the third game and never looked back as senior Jordan Wittekind served up eight straight points. Musselman closed to 8-5, tallying five points in a row, but the Patriots responded with four straight to go up 13-5. GW then scored eight of the next 10 points to wrap up the title on Shreve's kill.The Patriots came together near the net and embraced one another in celebration of reaching their goal. "This year we were determined to make it to the finals and win it all,'' Mourier said. "I'm so proud of my team. We've come so far."It's been a great four years with these girls and I wished it wouldn't end. To be with these girls ... we played middle school ball together. Just coming along on this journey is great. We've been determined since the beginning of the season. We had the drive we needed.''Shreve finished with 15 kills, eight blocks and one ace while Mourier chipped in six kills and one ace and senior setter Sydney Downey had 34 assists. Wittekind pitched in seven kills and two blocks and senior Casey Rollins turned in five kills, four blocks and five digs. Mourier, Shreve and Downey earned all-tournament honors.Musselman senior Corisha Smith tallied 12 kills while sophomore Taylor Lord, who has been playing with a partial tear of her calf muscle since the sectional tournament, added 10 kills and sophomore setter Kaitlin Ferretti had 25 assists. All three players were all-tournament selections."We couldn't get anything going and every time we did [George Washington] would get a big block, kill or defensive dig,'' said Musselman coach Shawn Martz, whose team finished runner-up for the second year in a row."We certainly didn't play as well as we wanted to, but a lot of it had to do with the way [the Patriots] were playing. This is the best I've seen them. When we played them in the [Queen of the Hill] tournament we had quite a few aces on them. We just couldn't quite do that today. We really couldn't match up with the front row very well.'' Smith is upbeat about next year in spite of graduating nine seniors."Our JV did really well,'' said the GW coach. "They won every tournament but one that they played in. They're ready to go. We'll be back at it in June ready to get another one.''Reach Tommy R.

The three-day camp is open to youth ages 12 to 18 years old are able to hone their judging and showing skills. It is just one of the many dairy camps available to youth across the country.
Youth may come for the judging and showing, but leave with so much more. During the camp, topics such as giving your calf a health check, feeding heifers, "roaming through the rumen", and necropsys were all discussed by dairy scientists. Camp leaders hope the exposure to the science-based topics will encourage youth to pursue a career in the dairy industry.
During "roaming through the rumen", campers can actually feel inside a cow's large fermentation vat (the rumen or first stomach) which breaks down forages. In another workshop, dairy youth could watch as a veterinarian performed a necropsy to determine why a calf died as shown in the above photo. Throughout these workshops, young people learned the proper way to care for cattle illnesses could be avoided in the first place. Finally during the "Guardians of Animal Ag" discussion, youth learned how to answer consumer questions related to animal agriculture.
If you or your son or daughter would like to attend a "Dairy Camp" in your area, contact your state's dairy science program at your nearest university or call Hoard's Dairyman and we can point you in the right direction.

Thats rad
Which do you prefer? The motivation to catch up to the bunny, or the satisfaction of staying ahead of it?

I would love to actually stay in front of the bunny but it will remain to see if that happens.

I'd rather stay ahead, especially at the start of the year, that way I have some wiggle room for illness or minor injury. I spent all last year behind the bunny due to starting with an injury that wasn't healed until mid Feb. I don't want to see that bunny's fluffy tail this year.

Depends on the time of year. For now, I'm okay being behind because my mileage will be lowest in January and February, but once I catch up and winter starts to break a bit (get past the -35*C), then I want to get ahead and stay there.

I prefer to stay behind the bunny in Winter. But not too far. It shouldn't make me feel like I can't catch up with some consistent weeks. I find it motivating to try and catch the bunny.

I'm way new to this, and I don't mind being behind the bunny, as long as I can still see the bunny. I feel that if I were too far ahead, I would just set my goal higher.

Detailed Description:
In the first year, patients will be recruited from oncology inpatient wards and outpatient clinics in two medical center hospitals in Taipei. Purposive sampling will be used to recruit outpatients or inpatients receiving chemotherapy. Data will be analyzed by descriptive analysis, independent t-test, Pearson correlation, one-way analysis of variance, and exploratory factor analysis.
In the second and third years, an experimental design consisting of three groups including a control group, an education only group, and an education and walking program group will be used. Data will be collected at treatment weeks 1, 4,8,12,16 including three cycles of chemotherapy. Data will be analyzed by descriptive analysis, independent t-test, Pearson correlation, and generalized estimating equations. At least 230 subjects will be interviewed in the first year.
At least 105 of patients with gastric cancer or colorectal will be classified into the three groups in the second and third year. We expect the results of this study to explore the meaning of fatigue and to help develop a common strategy to manage fatigue in Taiwan. The results can help clinicians and researchers to tailor interventions for cancer patients with severe fatigue.

Woman faces charges of stealing $480,000 from Marathon bombing victim fund
A 26-year-old New York woman has been arrested for allegedly fraudulently collecting nearly half a million dollars from One Fund Boston, the fund set up for Boston Marathon bombing victims, authorities said today.
Audrea Gause claimed she had suffered a traumatic brain injury as a result of the terror attack on April 15. But investigators allegedly found she was not a victim and had provided false documentation that she had been admitted to a Boston hospital, the attorney general's office said.
Gause was arrested this afternoon by Massachusetts State Police and the Troy, N.Y., police on a fugitive warrant near her home in Troy, the office said. Gause faces a charge of larceny over $250.
Attorney General Martha Coakley said Gause was accused of defrauding the fund of $480,000.
"I think the outrageous thing is that for all of [the One Fund's] due diligence and their care in trying to get dollars out to the people who needed them, we still have individuals with fraudulent intent who are attempting to take that money away,'' she said at an afternoon news conference.
It was the second arrest made in connection with alleged fraud aimed at the One Fund. Earlier this month, Branden Mattier, 22, was charged with attempting to bilk the fund of more than $2 million.
Coakley's office said at the request of the fund, it was actively reviewing all the claims submitted to, and paid by, the fund.
Three people were killed and more than 260 were injured in the bombings.

Many years ago, the British writer V.S. Pritchett shared an anecdote about a test pilot he knew who had built a room where he could occasionally be alone with his thoughts. The pilot, Pritchett recalled, "had a lighting system which indicated to people outside whether he was accessible to the world or not." Pritchett offered no other details of this curious arrangement, but when I picture the pilot's gadget, I imagine two light bulbs above an exterior door post; one light is green, the other, red. By illuminating either bulb, like the signals of a traffic light, our pilot tells his friends whether he's up for company or would rather be alone.
This image appeals to me because of its promise that the world can be held at bay with the single flip of a switch. Reading Pritchett's story, I started wondering how many switches in my own life I'd have to flip to secure an afternoon or morning of solitude.
In addition to my work as a newspaperman, I've been studying at one university and teaching at another one, along with doing some writing outside the office. Each activity involves a separate professional circle, which is how I recently realized that, quite improbably, I'd ended up with four email addresses. Add in a Twitter account and two phone numbers, and it's easy to see that small retreats from the daily grind involve more than merely shifting a pair of light bulbs from green to red.
All of this came to mind earlier this month when I took the day off for my birthday. I'd cleared the decks for a day of doing nothing, more or less, although there was one piece of unfinished business from the day before that would need a quick email to resolve. I fired up my laptop to send a short note, but in opening my email, I spotted a dozen other messages begging for a speedy reply.
Each one drew me more deeply into a thicket of obligations, until I glanced up from my screen and noticed that the wall clock was striking noon. My planned morning alone had drifted into the usual fog of urgencies that can make us wonder, at the end of a day, how another cycle of hours has eluded our grasp.
A man seeking solitude is bound to find that his biggest difficulty is striking a quorum among all the selves invited to show up — the professional self, the parenting self, the married self, the sibling self, the civic self. Each mission we embrace enriches us with its connections, yet creates balancing acts that no tightrope artist would envy.
"Our life is like a German Confederacy," said Henry David Thoreau, "made up of petty states, with its boundary forever fluctuating, so that even a German cannot tell you how it is bounded at any moment."
Thoreau's comment is a useful reminder that making bargains between quiet and connectedness, between retreat and responsibility, is nothing new. Happily, my birthday weekend included a quieter afternoon in which the only news from the outside world was the sound of rain on a living room window. Here's hoping for a year with more moments like that.

RECRUITMENT for new constables at Wiltshire Police has closed after just a few hours as website hits reached nearly 300,000.
Demand was so high for the £19,000-a-year posts that the website initially crashed when web applications launched at 4pm yesterday.
A force spokesman said: "Wiltshire Police recruitment for police officers is now closed further to an exceptionally high level of interest with over 283,820 hits on the Force website alone.
"We thank all those who took an interest in applying."

Seven trades that should happen
As the trade deadline nears, here are seven deals we would like to see
By Tom Haberstroh | ESPN Insider
Updated: February 19, 2013, 4:29 PM ET
4. Steve Nash to the Indiana Pacers
Indiana Pacers receive: Steve Nash, Metta World Peace, Jordan Hill and Steve Blake. Los Angeles Lakers receive: Danny Granger, George Hill, Lance Stephenson and Ben Hansbrough. The deal in Trade Machine.
It's just too painful to watch Nash's talents go to waste inside the ongoing circus in Laker Land. Dwight Howard appears to be allergic to running the pick-and-roll with Nash, which is a basketball crime of the highest degree. Not to mention, Kobe Bryant is now splitting ballhandling duty, which strips Nash of his wizard-like talents with the rock.
Indiana would be a brilliant landing spot for the two-time MVP, even aside from the obvious fact that Nash looks like he could step in right away for a "Hoosiers" remake. The Pacers rank 24th on offense and sorely need an injection of offensive creativity. Nash hasn't penetrated the paint as he has in the past, but he may just need a change in scenery. And Granger becomes a bit superfluous with Paul George's ascension. Metta World Peace's return to Indiana is a whole separate matter.
As with the Boston scenario above, the Lakers would have be on board with the idea that building for the future is more valuable than a slight chance at a first-round exit this season. In the short term, Hill would give the Lakers a much stronger defensive presence on the ball, and Granger (if and when he's healthy) could help buoy the offense without Nash. A 2013 playoff push wouldn't be ruled out, and Granger becomes a free agent just in time for the 2014 free-agent sweepstakes. This a deal that probably won't happen, but Nash's leading the Pacers against the Heat would be fantastic postseason theater.

I've thought for over a week now that the Bobcats were being held together with duct tape, that they were winning with sheer will, but that can only last so long and losing to the Wizards at home would appear to me a sign that they cannot keep winning.
We can go 1-3 and Charlotte can go 4-2 and we'll still make the playoffs. I feel pretty decent about that, especially considering we're off until Wednesday. This is the most practice time we've had since the coaching change.
We have a chance to clinch it Wednesday night if Charlotte loses in Cleveland on Wednesday. They play Orlando on Wednesday and we play Washington.
Yeah, Washington is now 3-35 on the road. Charlotte could be done.

Captain Jack's influence!
Last edited by Will Galen; 04-04-2011 at 04:30 AM.
NY and MIL he plays 29 and 34 (injured) and they win. CLE he gives them 15 and they win.
He sits with the hammy the last 2 games vs ORL and WSH and they lose.
One reason why I hated how much fans hated him as a person.
Chuck prone ref whiner? 100%
Brings it every night and actually gives a s*** that he's on the court? Definitely
He's been on 4 playoff teams, 3 of which were surprises that seemed to be partially driven by his presence, and Kerr said on the Simmons podcast that Jack was a major factor for that Spurs team as well.
Contrast that with Dunleavy not seeing the playoffs till this season which featured him missing tons of games and having a reduced role. For all his smart play vs how Jack is viewed, it's not like Dun tends to carry a better 3pt shot most years nor is he as good a defender.
If only we could go back and just make the deal Al/Diogu for Dun...that trade might have got the team somewhere. And you could have always let Jack walk as a FA after another year without Troy's deal coming back.
Sorry, but some wounds last a long time. That deal crippled the team for half a decade. Not exactly a "whoops".
Frankly I think this team could use a dose of Jack in the locker room. Seems like DJones is the closest thing we have to that right now.

Pacers: 35-43 w/4 games remaining. Best record: 39-43
Bobcats: 32-44 w/6 games remaining. Best record: 38-44
Bucks: 31-45 2/6 games remaining. Best record: 37-45
A win by the Pacers, a loss by the Bucks and two losses by th Bobcats puts the Pacers in the playoffs.

Sorry about that.
I changed the number of games remaining from 5 to 4 but forgot to change the math at the end for best record attainable. My bad.
Regarding the Pacers Magic number...
If Milwaukee loses in Orlando tonight and the Pacers win tomorrow against the Wizards, the Bucks will be eliminated. If Milwaukee manages to win, they are still eliminated with a loss tomorrow night against the Heat in Miami combined with a Pacers win.
The Bobcats play the Cavs in Cleveland tonight without Stephen Jackson. A loss there coupled with a Pacers win tomorrow reduces the Pacers magic number to 2 with 3 games remaining.
Tomorrow's game against the Wizards is a must win game for the Pacers because it's the easiest one they have the rest of the way and because of the damage it does to Charlotte and Milwaukee's playoff hopes.
Even if the Pacers lose each of their 4 last games of the season, they could make the playoffs as long as Milwaukee loses 2 of their remaining 6 games and Charlotte loses 3 of their remaining 6.
Every win of the Pacers and loss of the Bobcats and Bucks become really critical at this stage of the season. Hopefully they can manage at least 3 games to be sure should the two chasing teams get crazy, unexpected wins (Bobcats has been a bizzaro lately as they are getting some win streaks when everyone thought they're giving up already).
Doesn't that reduce it to 1?
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...
Keep this information to yourself!
"Look, it's up to me to put a team around ... Lance right now." Kevin Pritchard press conference
I lurk on here a lot and don't usually chime in but... don't we own the tie breaker against both of them? If so, we can go 0-4 and CHA would still have to go 4-2 and/or MIL would have to go 5-1 to overtake us. Even if we only win 1 more, CHA must then go 5-1 and MIL 6-0.
A healthy man takes a crap every day. A smart man does it on company time.
Cavs off to a good start against the Bobcats. Let's hope the game continues this way
Also, just read that 6 Wizards will miss tomorrow night's game, including Nick Young, Rashard Lewis and Josh Howard. That's good news for the Pacers, along with Washington's 3-35 road record.
We could clinch tomorrow night.
Bobcats gonna lose vs Cleveland LOOOOL
Come to the Dark Side -- There's cookies!
Charlotte has came back a bit in the Cavs game. Cavs still lead, but no longer by double digits.
Definitely have to take the Wiz seriously. Can't lose a winnable game at the end of the season to a beat up team you're suppose to beat
This space for rent.
With the cavs victory we can clinch tomorrow now can't we? That would be very very very exciting.
I thought the discussion was more about likely outcomes and timing of clinches, etc.
This just in, if the Warriors lose a few more games they will be locked into a higher lottery position than the Pacers.
Charlotte lost to Cleveland and Milwaukee lost to the Nets. That's got "quit" written all over it.
Indy - X (4 games remaining)
Charlotte - 2 (5 games remaining)
Milwaukee - 1 (5 games remaining)
It's not official yet, but at this point it's a done deal. We're in the playoffs.
This space for rent.
The magic number's down to one for Milwaukee (one more Pacer win or one more Milwaukee loss) and two for Charlotte.
We play Washington tomorrow and Charlotte plays Orlando. If we win and they lose, we clinch a playoff berth. Milwaukee also plays the Miami tomorrow, so even if we do lose to the Wiz, if the Heat beat the Bucks, they're officially eliminated.
It's been five tough years, but God dammit we're back. The best thing, by far, is that it's the young guys that got us here, and they're only going to get better.
