Hemp Oil - High CBD - Available
Here at we believe the opportunity exists for Americans to supplement their health and wellness regimens with naturally occurring cannabinoids derived from the industrial hemp plant stalk and seed. These natural cannabinoids, and particularly the one known as Cannabidiol or CBD have shown significant health and wellness benefits. CBD, a natural constituent of hemp oil, promotes and supports the nutritional and dietary health of aging bodies. Source: US Government Patent # 6,630,507.
Without admitting the therapeutic or potentially medicinal properties of cannabinoids, the US Government quietly holds a patent on the therapeutic use of cannabinoids. Known as the 507 patent, US Patent # 6,630,507 involves the research performed by the National Institutes of Health.
Your support allows us to continue our research and product development process, as well as supports a worldwide community of industrial hemp farmers and processors. Thank you so kindly for your interest in � products and ordering information is available through clicking on our tabs at the top.

Naturally Occurring CBD
When it comes to industrial hemp, America sadly lags the rest of the industrialized world. Other than for a brief period of time during World War II, hemp has not been grown in America since the 1930�s http://www.thehia.org/facts.html .
From hemp, a naturally occurring substance known as cannabinoids can be extracted. In certain cultivars of hemp, a particularly high portion of a special cannabinoid, known as cannabidiol (CBD) can be found (http://www.druglibrary.net/schaffer/hemp/indust/PHARMAfiber.html).
This CBD is now available in select nutritional products that are available to consumers for health and wellness benefits. Cannabidiol, CBD supports the nutritional and dietary health of aging bodies (US Government Patent # 6,630,507).

Industrial Hemp
Aside from the cannabinoids produced within our bodies and those found in industrial hemp, there are numerous other substances that have been found to react positively with the endocannabinoid system.� These items include: cacao, black pepper, Echinacea, tumeric and even carrots.� However the powerful cannabinoid extracts from the industrial hemp plant are the ones that will produce most closely those effects produced by the body�s own cannabinoids http://csglobe.com/high-on-health-cannabinoids-in-the-food-supply/ .� No downtime, no downside, no side-effects (maybe a little relaxation).� Our product developers support sustainable and renewable industrial hemp in which one acre of hemp sequesters 2 tons of carbon from our atmosphere (source: Christopher J Boucher and Hempsteads.com).�
If you seek health and wellness, dietary supplements with CBD / cannabidiol may be right for you.

SPECIAL OFFER: - Limited Time Only!
(The ad below will not display on your printed page)
For many runners today, less is definitely more -- at least when it comes to the cushioning in their shoes. Millions have embraced the idea of minimal shoes, which weigh less and encourage a midfoot or forefoot strike rather than a heel-heavy landing. Shoe designers have taken note, engineering a new generation of footwear that lowers the height, or drop, between the heel and forefoot to naturally encourage this running style.
But beware: The closer your foot is to the ground, the more careful you need to be about form. Land primarily on your mid- or forefoot, with feet under hips and body leaning forward slightly. Increase your mileage slowly to avoid injury, and don't be surprised if your feet ache a bit at first; it takes a while to build up strength in their muscles.
For a Barefoot Feeling
The lace-free "slipperlike" design of the 4-ounce Adidas AdiPure Adapt is "extremely comfortable," even without socks, and the shoe "fits like a glove." The firm rubber outsole "won't slip" as you stride, so you get a barefoot feel with protection from the road. ($90, adidas.com)

Keys stand for power and access. To lose one's keys in a dream is to be out of control or lack the means of access. It may symbolize that you feel unable to acquire what is needed to complete a task or obtain access to persons or knowledge.
To find your own keys is to assert your own power in a given situation. You have the ability to be "captain of your destiny," so to speak.
What is most interesting is to find a key that previously had no meaning for you. This is especially important when the key has no direct use, but "feels" as if it might be important. In a dream like this, you are probably searching for options to identify new potential within yourself or in relationship to others.
Who was with you when you found the key and with whom did you share the discovery in your dream? There will be numerous clues in the answers to these two questions.

Ryan Casillas thought he'd put the game away with a three-run blast in the fifth.
Turns out, the pitching-short Thunder Bay Border Cats needed his help again, after nearly squandering a 10-run lead Sunday at Subway Field.
Casillas, returning to the Cats for a second season, plated Michael Foster with an insurance run in the eighth, giving the Cats emergency closer the cushion he needed to preserve a wild 13-11 win over the visiting Willmar Stingers.
Foster, the fifth Thunder Bay pitcher of the contest, earned his second straight save, as the Cats improved to 2-3 on the young Northwoods League season, striking out a pair in the ninth to put the Stingers on ice.
Foster, who started the game as the designated hitter, finished 4-for-5 with three runs scored, singling each of his first four trips to the plate. He also scored four times.
"We battled back the whole game there," said Casillas, making his 2013 debut with the Cats, a season after hitting .269 with a pair of dingers in his first go-around in Thunder Bay.
"We just needed the pitching to keep us in it a little bit and I felt like we did the whole game, so it wasn't that hard to get a little more insurance there at the end."
He might have given a little too much credit to the bullpen, which took a bit of a beating after starter Clint Knoblauch left after four, the victim of a strict pitch count.
Up 12-2 through five, the Cats were on cruise control until the seventh, when the bottom all but fell out on reliever Kyle Cornett.
Cornett (W, 1-0), who escaped a bases-loaded jam in the sixth when Willmar's Tyler Leffler grounded into a 5-4-3 double play, was torched in the fifth, hitting two batters, walking one and surrendering five hits that led to six Willmar runs.
Kregg Snooks, who took over, fared no better, the key blow a Jake Gronsky single that scored a pair of runs, pulling the Stingers to within two, trailing 12-10.
John Havird stopped the free fall, striking out Marc Flores to end the threat.
But Havird made things interesting in the eighth, hitting Michael Suchy, who came home on a Max Kuhn double to centre, the first batter to face Foster who came on to close out the contest.
"It was definitely great getting out to the offensive start we got off to, putting up 12 runs early. It's great to see our offense clicking now," said Cats manager Dan Holcomb. "It was a little rough in the middle there. We gave them one big inning and we had to throw a couple of pitchers we didn't think we'd have to today.
"But it was definitely a team effort. Everyone got some playing time. We were out of position players by the end of the game. It was a little stressful for our guys, but we pulled it out in the end."
Thunder Bay scored three runs in the first, adding a fourth in the second on a Foster RBI single. After the Stingers struck back with a pair in the fourth, keyed by an Alex Bautista fielding error in right, the Cats proceeded to add eight more runs over the course of their next two at bats.
Bautista walked with the bases full to score Foster, then, with the bases loaded again, Jacob Rogers smacked a single that scored two more.
Willmar (2-3) found themselves in early pitching trouble. Starter Zach Tillbery was forced to leave the game after one inning, victim of the league's 35-pitch maximum in any given frame.
Replacement Colton Bottomley lasted just two innings, surrendering four runs on four hit, one run fewer than Alabama's Cody Hughes, who gave up five in three innings of work.

Vincent W. Patton, III, B.A., B.S., M.A., M.Th., Ed.D. (born 1954)[1] is a retired Master Chief Petty Officer of the Coast Guard in the United States.
Career overview[edit]
A native of Detroit, Michigan, Patton retired from the U.S. Coast Guard 1 November 2002, after serving 30 years of active duty. He became the first African American selected as the service's senior-most enlisted ranking position as the Master Chief Petty Officer of the Coast Guard in 1998. His career included staff and operational assignments both afloat and ashore throughout the United States, and a joint military service assignment in Cuba and Haiti.
Job description and accomplishments[edit]
Patton served as the eighth Master Chief Petty Officer of the Coast Guard from May 1998 to October 2002. As the service's top senior enlisted leader and ombudsman, he was the principal advisor to the Commandant of the Coast Guard, his directorates, and the Secretaries of Transportation and Defense, with primary focus on quality of life issues, career development, work environment and personnel matters affecting over 40,000 active duty, reserve enlisted, and civilian personnel servicewide. He routinely addressed these specific issues before appropriate United States Senate and House committees in the United States Congress, as well as with the Commander-in-Chief, along with his senior enlisted counterparts of the other four military services.
His numerous military awards include the Coast Guard Distinguished Service Medal, two Meritorious Service Medals, three Coast Guard Commendation Medals, three Coast Guard Achievement Medals, the Commandant's Letter of Commendation Ribbon, eight Meritorious Team awards and nine Coast Guard Good Conduct awards. He also earned the Cutterman Insignia (sea duty recognition) and is one of a few Coast Guardsmen to have earned the coveted "Parachutist Wings" specialty badge during his assignment with Joint Task Force 160.
A 1972 graduate of Cass Technical High School, Patton became an Eagle Scout and was also a member of the U.S. Naval Sea Cadet Corps (NSCC) JAMES M. HANNAN division during his high school years. All of Patton's initial college education through doctorate degree was earned while on active duty. He received his Doctor of Education degree in 1984 from the American University, Washington, DC. His dissertation was based on the development and implementation of the Coast Guard Enlisted Evaluation System. He has a Masters degree in Counseling Psychology from Loyola University Chicago; a Bachelor of Science degree in Social Work from Shaw College at Detroit, Michigan; and a Bachelor of Arts degree in Communications from Pacific Union College, Angwin, California.
His extensive military education includes U. S. Coast Guard Chief Petty Officer Academy, U.S. Army Sergeants Major Academy, and the Defense Equal Opportunity Management Institute (DEOMI).
After retirement[edit]
After his military retirement, Patton completed a Master of Theology degree in Applied Religious Studies from the Graduate Theological Union in Berkeley, California. In addition, he was an adjunct professor teaching 'Philosophy of Ethics' at the University of California, Berkeley. Since 2003, he has performed summer missionary work with the International Rescue Committee in Haiti, and worked as an executive director for the non-profit Halley's Comet Foundation, teaching "at-risk" teenagers seamanship and sailing skills. He served as a volunteer tour advisor and chaplain for the USO, participating in the "Operation Handshake" program to visit U.S. military personnel during the 2004 Thanksgiving holiday in Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, and in the 2003 holiday season with U.S. troops in the Persian Gulf and Southwest Asia involved with Operations "Iraqi Freedom" and "Enduring Freedom." From 2004-2011, he was Director of Government Partnerships & Alliances for Military Advantage, also known as "Military.com," the largest website devoted to the military community covering benefits, information and transition. From June 2002-June 2013 he served on the Board of Visitors for the Defense Intelligence Agency's National Intelligence University.
Presently, Patton is Executive Director for the Armed Forces Communications and Electronics Association (AFCEA) Educational Foundation. In addition, Patton is a managing partner with Pinnacle Five, LLC, a group of former senior enlisted members from the DoD services who served with him during his tenure as Master Chief Petty Officer of the Coast Guard. He holds board memberships with the Coast Guard Foundation, National Coast Guard Museum Association, Naval Sea Cadet Corps, Northeast Maritime Institute and the U.S. Naval Institute, and also serves on the Unitarian Universalist Association Committee on Military Ministry.

Patton resides in Alexandria, Virginia and has two adult children (daughter and son). His son is a U.S. Army veteran (82nd Airborne Division).

Asparagus-and-Mushroom Frittata

karenfar Posted: 09/29/13Huntington Beach, CA
I made this using a large skillet, can't imagine using an 8-inch with all the asparagus and mushrooms. I used 3 whole eggs/2 egg whites; 4 ounces of asparagus cut into 1-inch pieces; portabello, cremini & oyster mushrooms; 1/4 cup of asiago cheese; fresh chives and parsley. Result: too much asparagus and really bland. I was hesitant to add more cheese but, other than the asparagus that's where the flavor came from. Anyway, not a repeater!

"Those Who Make Revolutions
Half-Way Do Nothing But Dig a Grave
If for two works alone, this years New York Film
Festival was a watershed for lovers ofto borrow
a crutch adjective from The Squid and the Whales
pedant patriarch Bernard Berkmandense work.
One came from a heretofore unknown talent, Romanian
Cristi Puiu, whose Death of Mr. Lazarescu
could, were it the directors last work, be one
of those filmsa Night of the Hunteror
a Mother and the Whoreto single-handedly
justify the authors canonization. The other is
from a long-established unknown, Philippe Garrel
who, at a single 11:00 AM screening, presented
a monumental 178-minute hoard of period-specific
emotional memory, Regular Lovers, to the
NYFF; it wouldve been an epoch-making film in any
year. I dont want to call Garrels movie Great
(though, oh, it is)thats one of those hefty
words that tends to crush dialogue with the finality
of its import, which would be a disservice to
a film that begs to be thought on, mixed-up with,
bored or smothered by, but not put on a shelf
labeled Masterpiece to gather dust and dispassionate
appreciation. I love and respect this movie far
too much for deadening hyperbole. As of this writing
its without an American distributorwhich is
a shame; such a vivid mass of celluloid deserves
a fighting chance to engage a living audience
before a sect of art-house obscurists put it in
Garrels new film, like much of his work, has
the stillborn French Revolution of May 1968 as
its basis, though the centrality of those Events
is literal here rather than tangential. I doubt
many critics will be equal to the challenge of
discussing Regular Lovers without mentioning
Bernardo Bertoluccis 68-set 2004 film The
Dreamers, and Garrel doesnt ask us to; the
connection is explicitly urged in a scene where
actress Clotilde Hesme, discussing the Italian
directors Before the Revolution, turns
to the camera to deliver a measured enunciation
of the auteurs name: Ber-to-lucci. I cant
figure if Garrels movie is intended as an upbraiding
counterpoint or staid intellectual sister film
to The Dreamersor even as some kind of
disjointed sequel. It shares a leading man with
Bertoluccis insouciant work, Philippes son Louis,
and as Garrel the younger steps off the streets
of an uprisen Paris in an early scene, he tells
friends, Some guy gave me a molotov and all I
had to do was throw itthe very same dilemma
which ends Bertoluccis film. But though Regular
Lovers spends more time around the melee than
The Dreamers did, it conversely seems the
less invested filmBertoluccis complicitly adolescent
approach made a total coup (or anything!) seem
possible; Garrel, filming at the sidelines, seems
incapable of participating in the party for more
than a few moments, burdened by full knowledge
of the hangover ahead.
Regular Lovers (the connections between
Garrel movies titles and their texts is like
that of New Order song titles to the songsalmost
only what we make of them) follows a free-floating
cadre of young Parisians during the eruption and
cool-off of that historic May, their base of operations
the palatial flat inherited by their friend Antoine
(Julien Lucas)snazzier digs even than the posh
apartment of The Dreamers. The movie is
a massive, rather broke-backed work: the first
hour is dominated by the long-shot chiaroscuro
of police and students pitched urban warfare
during the Night of the Barricadesthe images,
in some of the richest black-and-white photography
in recent memory, recall Garrels works of Symbolist
painterly myth-environment and medieval abjection
from the early Seventies (The Inner Scar,
The Bed of the Virgin). Id found the reading
of those films as allegories in political despair
a bit tenuous, but the protestors barren battleground
is too close to the scorched landscapes of those
early works, right down to the little omnipresent
jots of sourceless flame, to ignore a connectionits
obvious that those weeks of martial law left a
deep imprint on the directors hypersensitive
imagistic imagination.
The remainder of Regular Lovers is the
sort of intent, ascetic relationship study thats
characterized the directors films of the last
25 years. As such, Regular Lovers is the
perfect primer to Garrels body of worka summation
of sorts, and if youre not engaged on some level
by this outsized chef doeuvre, youd probably
do well to stay away from the sketches. At the
movies foreground is François (Louis Garrel),
a poet of uncertain accomplishment whos 20 in
68, as the director wasand Louis has inherited
his fathers deferential-but-concentrated screen
presence, monumental, unruly-looking head, and
chin-down stare. François meets Lilie (Hesme),
a young sculptress from a proletariat background
(the movie has a muted genius when handling class),
and the two lithe androgyneslovely, pretentious
twin sylphs in the Patti Smith/ Robert Mapplethorpe
moldwrap together in a cloistered love affair.
Garrels romances are concentrated, self-absorbed
things, their dynamic determined in large part
by the directors penchant for steadily fixing
his camera, at close range, on his actresses.
Theres something wonderful about the desire to
look and learn that Garrels patient fascination
exhibits; hes an obsessive, affectionate watcherbut
maybe Bertolucci has a responding riposte ready-made
for Garrel with the scopophiliac cuckolded cineaste
played by Jean-Pierre Leaud in Last Tango in
A friend, whod caught the beginning of Regular
Lovers, hit me with a tough question when
I professed my admiration: So did it go anywhere?
I cant answer in the affirmative, but if it lacks
drive, Garrels big, busy canvas has a dreamy
propulsion and compositional logic whose effect
is additive rather than just anecdotal. His excrescence
of little scenes doesnt seek to overwhelm but,
through accretion of detail, to work up an internal
rhythm that can adapt and absorb a viewer whos
up to the task; the movies little formal quirks,
like letting some shots run through a reels final,
exposed frames, couldnt even pry me outthey
occurred as natural phenomenon, like passing clouds.
It can be a slightly stagnant movie, but
this in no way diminishes the throat-clutching
feeling when François explains to Lilie the simple
contrast that proves his love for her is truer
than those that preceded it: I wasnt listening
to the girls I was with. Or the effect of the
films most potent scene, which feels almost like
an insert: a fey, dandy-ish secondary character
in a tight-fitting velvet jacket moves across
a dance floor, absorbed in his satyr-like frug
to the Kinks This Time Tomorrow. One could
slough it off as a hip movie cliché, dusting off
a handpicked piece of vintage wax, then shrewdly
dropping the needle when a jolt of emotional import
is called for (Tenenbaums set the bar with
Nicos These Days, and Squid and the Whale
admirably performed the honors at this years
NYFF with Loudon Wainwright, Street Hassle,
Pink Floyd
), but this moment of shivering synergy
between mediums is larger than any record geek
showoffa lovely, ardently strummed tune about
daydreams on a transatlantic flight is suddenly
invested with the collective question of Regular
Lovers ridiculously beautiful youth: This
time tomorrow/ Where will we be?
This time tomorrow/
What will we know? Its Garrels capacity for
moments like this, abrupt break-outs of emotional
levitation through music, which mustve prompted
Olivier Assayas, equally keen in merging cinema
and pop, to name a series of soundtrack-anchored
films he curated at Brooklyns BAM Cinematek I
Can No Longer Hear the Guitar, after Garrels
1991 film of the same title.
But isolating standout moments isnt fair to the
way Regular Lovers actually works: I took
reams of notes during the movie, but Ill be damned
if I can remember the scenes or dialogues that
most of them are in reference to. What really
lingers is the impression of having been somewhere
fragile, foolish, and lovely for the films three
hoursamong a young generation solipsistically
convinced of their significance and historical
import: key is a pot-hazy drift-off dream in which
François imagines his brothers-in-arms as a mob
of Jacobinsdeposed militiamen in dirty tunics
and scythe-wielding sans culottesrolling an antique
cannon through the streets. But in life, as in
the dream, the rebellion breaks rank and scatters.
One might capsulize Regular Lovers as fragments
of an after-the-revolution comedownone reviewer
broke down the films formula as one third idealism,
two thirds disillusionmentbut I dont think
that either-or polarity is quite equal to Garrels
movie. You can detect an older man looking back
dubiously towards youths utopianism and us-against-them
ethos even at the height of the films rather
languid fervor: the jabber between the movements
leaders is a muddled mockery and a pig police
inspector who visits the kids house turns out
to be a benevolent paternal art lover. And theres
more than one disappointment: after the coup has
dissipated, François replaces his wide utopian
ideal with a narrower but no less grandiose one,
the Egalitarian Love-In at the End of History
is replaced by Love Everlasting. Françoiss verse
hints at a long acquaintance with melancholy (the
terrible roar of nothingness), and he pushes
a slender pistol to his temple in a gesture of
practiced poetic despair, but he has full faith
in redemption through those absolutesso he keeps
pressing Lilie to promise him eternity, which
she does, though with ambiguous eyes. A crash
is as good as inevitable, and the films fall-off
ending only increases Regular Lovers passing
resemblance to Robert Bressons litany of disappointments,
The Devil, Probably (1977). But I think
that Garrels film, better than Bressons, may
deserve the unusual praise offered by François
Truffaut after seeing Devil; for him it
was the beauty of that films leads that animate
the film
and I am insisting on their beauty because
it is in part the subject of the film: wasted
beauty, wasted youth. Regular Lovers is
a sad, admiring movie about love at 20, basking
in the flare of the impossible potential pompous
kids can find in the world, and the loveliness
of that impossibility.

You Can Shave the Baby
Bizarre doll alert! We've heard of knocked-up baby dolls and breastfeeding baby dolls, but ... Sasquatch baby dolls?
Check out the "You Can Shave the Baby" doll. The owner of such a lovely, red-haired hairy baby apparently has the option of shaving the doll's hair right off. Yuck! For some reason, this toy's manufacturer thinks hairy ankles and armpits on babies is a problem that you'll enjoy fixing.
Thank goodness for Dora and Cabbage Patch.
Check out our list of the all-time most controversial dolls!
This had been around for years lol
For crying out loud; a cursory check on Google reveals quickly that this is someone's art piece, not a toy from a "toy manufacturer". Way to spread the stupid!

MIAMI — It was a loss for the Marlins. It was a loss for Josh Johnson. Yet manager Ozzie Guillen clung to one positive development from Wednesday's 2-1 defeat to the Braves: Johnson, more than at any other point this season, resembled the ace of old.
He pitched into the eighth inning, struck out nine and consistently touched 95 mph with his fastball. Johnson dropped to 3-4 despite giving up just two runs on six hits through seven, but what Guillen and the Marlins witnessed bodes well for moving forward.

Yeah. I get that. It is the thought and the action that counts. But yeah he was trending on his bday for a while (happened while I was sleeping so I got in at the end of it) and some fans took a shot of it and posted it on his Weibo so he can see it. Don't know if he did though.
They tried trending him last night too with the other members, but people kept using different names…so that fell apart. LOL

Robin Lopez C POR 5 Months
Robin Lopez struggled in his matchup with Dwight Howard on Sunday, posting six points on 2-of-7 shooting with eight rebounds and one block.
The Blazers didn't give Lopez any help in the post defensively and Dwight made them pay, though Portland's decision to intentionally foul Howard led to four straight missed FTs and turned the momentum around with five minutes remaining. Lopez had a +/- rating of -15, which was easily the worst of any player, and it will be interesting to see if Portland alters their defensive approach on Wednesday.
Robin Lopez C POR 6 Months
Robin Lopez had a strong game Friday night and scored 13 points with nine rebounds, one assists, two steals, and five blocks in the Blazers' win over the Bulls.
Lopez hasn't been negatively affected by LaMarcus Aldridge's return one bit and continued to be a force down low with his fifth game of five or more blocks this season. He's now averaging 14.7 points, 9.7 rebounds, and 3.0 blocks over his last three games and will continue to be a valuable contributor in the rebounds and blocks categories.
Robin Lopez C POR 6 Months
The Blazers fell in Orlando on Tuesday despite a huge game from Robin Lopez, who scored a season-high 20 points on 9-of-13 shooting while hauling in 13 rebounds.
RoLo also blocked two shots, but the end result was Portland's third straight loss without the services of LaMarcus Aldridge. The Blazers are now just one game ahead of the sixth-place Warriors, meaning Lopez should continue to play heavy minutes in Portland's three remaining games this week.
Robin Lopez C POR 7 Months
Robin Lopez hit 7-of-12 shots for 15 points, 14 rebounds and three blocks in Wednesday's win over the Bucks.
With LaMarcus Aldridge out for the week, Ro-Lo should keep Ro-lling along for the Blazers.
Robin Lopez C POR 7 Months
Robin Lopez scored 19 points vs. his former team on Friday with four boards and three blocks in 34 minutes.
He remains one of the better under-the-radar to be dealt in the offseason and the Blazers are getting everything out of him. Lopez has become better in almost every facet and he is also extremely durable. Fantasy owners should just enjoy the ride the rest of the way.
Robin Lopez C POR 7 Months
Robin Lopez held his ground in 38 minutes of action vs. the Rockets on Sunday, finishing with 11 points, 11 rebounds and five blocks for his 24th double-double of the season.
Head coach Terry Stotts opted not to double-team Dwight Howard on most possessions, in an attempt to keep Houston's perimeter game under wraps -- the ploy worked for the most part, holding Houston to 9-of-29 from downtown, while Dwight posted 17 & 12 with three blocks and five turnovers. Lopez continues to wildly exceed expectations, and his fantasy owners can look forward to a juicy five-game week from March 24-30.
Robin Lopez C POR 7 Months
Robin Lopez scored 19 points on 9-of-13 shooting with 16 rebounds, two assists and three blocks in Monday's loss to the Lakers.
Lopez keeps on adding notches to his belt this season and it feels like we're singing the same praise every night. At some point he'll start to get some love in the press outside of Portland, too.
Robin Lopez C POR 7 Months
Robin Lopez had a nice offensive night on Saturday with 18 points, nine boards, two assists and on block in 32 minutes.
He shot 5-of-9 from the field and made all eight treys. Lopez got off to a fast start 12 points in the first half and took advantage of one of the league's worst interior defenses. He'll get another chance to do the same thing against the Lakers on Monday. Ro-Lo has been one of the better under-the-radar offseason acquisitions from last summer.
Robin Lopez C POR 7 Months
Robin Lopez had 12 points, 10 rebounds and a career-high seven blocks before fouling out of Tuesday's win over the Nuggets.
If you're surprised a big man had a career night against the Nuggets, you haven't been paying attention. The Nuggets are constantly torched by opposing bigs and tonight was no exception. Ro-Lo is Ro-lling, averaging 10.6 points, 10.6 rebounds and 2.8 blocks over his last five games.
Robin Lopez C POR 8 Months
Robin Lopez hit 7-of-9 shots for 17 points, 14 rebounds, a steal and two blocks in Tuesday's loss to the Thunder.
Ro-Lo continues to play well and had 17 points and 14 rebounds on Friday, as well. There's no reason for him to be on fantasy benches right now, especially after Joel Freeman went down with what looked like a serious right knee injury on Tuesday.

May 19, 2008Albany -- A deranged student goes on a shooting rampage at school. Someone takes hostages in a house in your neighborhood.
A man with a grudge and a bomb walks into a government building. If one of those frightening scenarios happened in Albany, We'd depend on the SWAT team to save lives.
Not long ago, Our SWAT team was in disarray. After major changes, is it ready to respond now?
SWAT team members never know when they'll be called out, or what kind of emergency they'll face.
But they know lives will be on the line. "When the citizens need help, they call police. When the police need help, they're gonna call on SWAT," said SWAT Team Member Capt. Tim Hannington.
The Albany Dougherty SWAT team trains twice a month to make sure they're always ready for that call.
"Our ultimate goal is the safe end to any situation," says SWAT Team Commander Maj. Derrell Smith.
But last summer, Some city and county leaders and law enforcers doubted the team's ability to reach that goal.
Sheriff's Captain Tim Hannington was one of several veteran SWAT members who resigned, Concerned over leadership, communication, and chain of command problems.
Today, You won't get Hannington or anybody else on the SWAT team to talk much about those problems. "The only way this team's gonna get to move forward is to put that behind us and build from starting now," he said.
"The main thing we're geared towards is the success of today's Albany Dougherty SWAT Team. We don't too
"What happened in the past is in the past. We're moving forward," Smith said.
Major Derrell Smith is leading that movement forward. "Things are going really well with the Albany Dougherty SWAT team."
During the trouble, A shorthanded team still responded to dangerous calls like this hostage situation while major SWAT changes were negotiated.
Now, A new board oversees the team. It's made up of the head of every local law enforcement agency in the county from the D. A. 's office to the school police department. They put Major Smith, The drug squad commander who's used to dealing with various agencies, In charge.
"It's been real positive. We've got the board that's working hard for us. We've got the guys that are working hard for us," Smith said.
And they have more guys working on the team. The number got down into single digits last year.
Now, 22 officers from a half dozen agencies are on the team, And they plan to add a few more.
Tim Hannington is back and is pleased with the new members too. "They have a true commitment to provide the ultimate service to the city of Albany and Dougherty County. They take it to heart. They come here, and they train hard. They're ready to respond."
Every new member must pass a physical test and a firearms test. Board members check out their background and do an in-depth interview. And other team members must give them a thumbs up, It's got to be unanimous. That helps build unity, Trust, And confidence.
"All the confidence in the world. I'd go in a building any day with each one of them with no fears, no worries. We're all gonna come back out alive," Cpl. Tyrone Griffin, SWAT Team Member.
The team also enhanced its training. "You never know what we'll face, so we want our officers to be prepared for anything that they encounter," said Sgt. Allen Brock. SWAT Team Training Coordinator. Brock comes up realistic drills. "We set up scenarios where the bad guy is compliant and where the bad guy is not compliant."
And they have new training equipment, like guns that shoot pellets and allow force on force training, where pretend bad guys really do shoot back.
"This piece of equipment keeps them honest. If you get shot with it, it will hurt. It stings," said Brock.
The equipment also allows for better training in buildings Say a school, Where the SWAT team might really be needed one day.
"Clean up is real simple. Just sweep it up with a broom," said Brock.
Team members say that new training has them better prepared for the real thing.
"Everyone knows, how you train is how you gonna play," Griffin says.
"You train how you're gonna act," Hannington agreed.
And team leaders insist SWAT has made a quick and dramatic turnaround.
"If a situation happens in Albany or Dougherty County right now, I have 100% confidence that this team can go out and handle the situation that's put in front of them," says Commander Smith.
And hopefully reach that goal of saving lives and bringing a safe end to any emergency.Feedback: firstname.lastname@example.com?subject=InsideSWAT-BR-5/19

In 1992, Friends of the Chicago River hosted 25 volunteers for "Chicago River Rescue Day." That small group "rescued" the river by pulling old shopping carts, mattresses, and plastic bags from its banks. Little did they know that day would continue year after year, evolving into Chicago River Day which now hosts over 4,000 volunteers at 70 sites along the river each year.
You are invited to join Friends of the Chicago River and over 4,000 volunteers with thousands more beyond the banks for the 21st Chicago River Day. Volunteers will gather for a day of hands-on environmental work along the Chicago River. Volunteers range in age from pre-schoolers to seniors, represent a wide variety of ethnic and economic backgrounds, and reside throughout the 673-square mile Chicago River watershed. They work side-by-side to collect garbage and sort for recycling, remove invasive vegetation, spruce up river-edge trails, plant native seedlings, and much more.
These two sites need more volunteers. Can you help?
Riverside Shopping Center – 3145 S. Ashland, Chicago. This site is along the banks of Bubbly Creek and is best suited for adults only. To learn more about this site and sign up to volunteers, please click here.
Origins Park – 2701 S. Ashland, Chicago. This site is located at the South Branch Turning Basin where the South Branch, Bubbly Creek and the Sanitary & Ship Canal converge. This site is suitable for adults or children. To learn more and sign up for Origins Park, please click here.

A few weeks ago, New York Magazine's Jonathan Chait wrote a post that cited the work of Reason Magazine's Peter Suderman as an example of how libertarian and conservative journalists have spun a cocoon around their readers, making Obamacare's doom seem perpetually inevitable even as the specifics of their doomsaying tell a story of its gradual success. "The message of every individual dispatch is a confident prediction of the hated enemy's demise," Chait wrote of Suderman's writing, "yet the terms described in each, taken together, tell the story of retreat."
To illustrate this point about "the substance, when viewed as a whole" of his fellow journalist's analysis, he quoted four posts Suderman wrote during the winter of Obamacare's discontent, most of which were day-after analysis of new enrollment numbers, and all of which noted (accurately) that the program was lagging its projected enrollment levels. Then he quoted a fifth post, from July, in which Suderman took issue (again, reasonably) with a new study claiming that Obamacare had cut the uninsured rate by 20 million. Thus, Chait concluded, readers of Suderman's coverage "have gone from learning that the law has failed to cover anybody to learning it would cover a couple million to learning it would cover a few million to learning that it has probably insured fewer than 20 million people halfway through year one."
What was missing from this gloss, as Suderman noted in a slightly puzzled response, were any quotes from his writing in April, May and June, when he also covered Obamacare's (unexpected even to many of its supporters) enrollment surge, and wrote posts explaining its implications for the uninsured rate (and acknowledging some of his own more pessimistic hypotheticals no longer obtained). In other words, yes, a reader of Suderman's work might have been more pessimistic about Obamacare than was warranted … but that same reader would have had an accurate real-time sense of where the enrollment numbers stood, while a reader of Chait's take on Suderman would come away with the pretty clear (and false) implication that Suderman was a hack who only covered Obamacare's numbers prior to its last-minute surge, and then simply dropped the subject before returning months later to attack new evidence of its success.
I raise this recent example because it has some relevance to how Chait characterizes my coverage of Mitt Romney's 2012 presidential campaign in his post today on Paul Ryan's new poverty-and-mobility policy blueprint. Read more…

RANCHO CUCAMONGA, CA, Jan. 16, 2013 � Accela, Inc., the leading provider of web-, mobile-, and cloud-based software exclusively for government, announced today that Rancho Cucamonga, a suburban city in San Bernardino County, about 40 miles east of Los Angeles, will replace its Tidemark Advantage client-server system with Accela Automation� enterprise software to streamline service delivery for Building, Code Enforcement, Fire, Planning, and Engineering.
After upgrading to Accela Automation, this City with a population of approximately 165,000 will offer a number of vital public services online for the first time ever. The City will greatly improve services to citizens with a robust, fully integrated solution built around the core technology of Accela Automation. Accela Mobile Office� will empower staff members with access to project documents from laptops and tablet PCs, providing greater convenience and faster turnaround time for building inspectors and end users. Field workers will also be supported by Accela GIS�, an integration of industry-leading Esri ArcGIS for Server maps with Accela Automation.
Accela Citizen Access� will enable contractors and inspectors to access services and complete processes online, including complete permit requests, research required variances, approvals and forms, have visibility to their submittal status, and process payments. Electronic document submittal and review (EDR) will be enabled through the integration of Adobe Acrobat Professional with Accela Automation. EDR will benefit government, local business, and the community by rendering the process more streamlined and less costly.
Rancho Cucamonga is taking advantage of downtime provided by the economic downturn to fully immerse its staff in a new organizational culture that includes training on Accela Automation. �The best time to improve processes and become more efficient is now during a down economy when we�re not overwhelmed by projects and we have the time to train staff members,� said Jeff Bloom, Deputy City Manager for Economic and Community Development. �Getting started with Accela Automation will enable us to streamline our services, provide them more economically, and be fully prepared for the next wave of development activity.�
�We commend Rancho Cucamonga for it wisdom in upgrading to Accela Automation at a time when the City has the time to train personnel in the new technology,� said Maury Blackman, Accela CEO and President. �By getting ahead of the curve, they will no doubt be ready to better support local businesspeople, tradesmen, and developers as the economy picks up.�

Volume first-look: a cyberpunk stealth sim inspired by Robin Hood
"He's a Let's Player of crime." Volume's protagonist is a young man who stumbles across a futuristic training simulator: an ad-hoc assemblage of projectors that can transform the game's single room into innumerable glowing neon stealth challenges. The simulator's previous owner used it to plan a coup that has subsequently overthrown the government. Now, Volume's hero uses it to broadcast the secrets of the powerful to a cowed populace. Each simulation represents a real place, and every transmission demonstrates the best way to rob the rich and give to the poor.
Volume is a cyberpunk retelling of Robin Hood, and its creator has created a philanthropic thief who is part gaming YouTuber and part WikiLeaks activist. "Robin Hood was always done as a contemporary hero," says developer Mike Bithell. "Like Spider-Man. He always existed in the time period that he was being talked about."
The player negotiates maze-like environments from a top-down perspective. The way you gather glowing gems to reveal the exit is an abstraction that nods at the stealth genre's inheritance from Pac-Man, and the use of vision cones to denote the areas of awareness of each stage's patrolling robot guards recalls Metal Gear Solid.
In the first version of the Robin Hood story, the outlaw wasn't an archer but a bugler – his chief superpower, as Bithell puts it, being to blow a trumpet in order to summon his mates to his aid. In Volume, the Bugle is a wrist-mounted gadget that enables you to fire a bouncing projectile that can be triggered to produce a sound at any point along its trajectory. Any guards in its radius will move to investigate, and using the Bugle to manipulate patrol routes and shift static sentries is key to negotiating each level.
Other gadgets include the Veil – a cloaking device – and the Thunderclap, a deafening blast that temporarily reduces the effective radius of sound in general. There are also environmental objects to manipulate: lockers to hide in, forcefields to disable and alarms to circumvent. "I'm trying to do stealth in a very fast way, and a very binary way," Bithell says. "I don't like the ambiguity that has crept into stealth games. I like stealth where you can look at a screenshot and know exactly where everyone is and what is going on."
Bithell also cites Super Meat Boy as an inspiration, and the influence of Edmund McMillen's world-class platformer is apparent in the way that Volume emphasises trial-and-error. There's a little of Hotline Miami, too, in the way that tough levels feel like threading a needle through a mass of barbed wire.
That said, Bithell has made a deliberate decision to remove violence. "That's not the great liberal objective that a lot of people have read it as. It's a mechanical thing – stealth games are unbalanced if you can kill people. When I play Metal Gear Solid, my objective isn't to escape – it's to snap the necks of everybody in the room. I end up with a bag of awesome gadgets that I never use, because I've got this one winning strategy."
It's a step towards making a stealth game that allows for arcade-style mastery, and this hooks into the in-game level creator that enables players to make and share challenges for their friends to crack.
The narrative takes the form of a conversation between Loxley – played by YouTuber Charlie McDonnell – and his AI assistant, played by Danny Wallace.Wallace's character is a nod to Bithell's previous game, Thomas Was Alone, and as in that game the story will be told entirely through voiceover.
"We lose some stuff in terms of tying story to the world," Bithell says, "but it means we can tell the story regardless of the level being played – so we can use usergenerated content as part of the narrative." As Loxley streams his attempts, he'll also be contacted by viewers and come into contact with an antagonist who seeks to shut him down. These are the agents of the game's take on Prince John, and as the player progresses they'll get closer and closer to tracking down Loxley's broadcasting location.
It's a clever storytelling decision, not least because it allows player failure to be incorporated into the story. Loxley is never really caught, and never really dies – but the people he's trying to help watch him stumble, and comment on it.
If nothing else, this is something that Bithell's experience after the success of Thomas Was Alone has prepared him for. I speak to him just after he's spent a morning fending off a wave of hate-filled Twitter spam, having innocently expressed an interest in receiving more constructive criticism from his players.
"Volume is a little bit autobiographical. In the last year I've learned to deal with being a person who is visible on the internet."

You can add extra action bars above the default one and on the right of your screen from the Interface menu, without having to get any addons. These can also be keybound, so you don't have to mess around with shift n, just use modifiers. For example, I have Lichborne bound to ctrl-f (control fear), Insignia of the Scourge set to ctrl-s (control stun), Horn of Winter to shift-a (shift to attacking mode), et cetera. It helps if you can, like I do, have a mental reason for each key assignment, makes it much easier to remember.

Larry Goodwin, a 62-year-old farmer in Moody, Texas, met a painful death last Monday when he accidentally disturbed a hidden hive of Africanized honebees, a.k.a. "killer bees," as he drove his tractor on a neighbor's land.
The bees swarmed from their hive in overwhelming numbers, prompting Goodwin to run to a nearby house and grab a garden hose to try and spray away the fierce insects. But the hive with an estimated 40,000 bees, overtook the farmer and killed him with their stings.
Goodwin's was a horrific and unusual death -- but how exactly do these bees kill?
"These are extremely defensive and dominant bees," said Eric Mussen, extension apiculturist at the UC Davis Department of Entomology and Nematology.
"Africanized honeybees are extremely sensitive to vibrations," Mussen explained. "If a lawnmower goes off several houses away from a colony, for example, the bees could still likely detect the vibrations and sting everyone in the area."
When disturbed, the killer bees have extra soldiers on duty to respond to alarms. The bees are slightly smaller than honeybees and have the same venom load per sting, but a defensive attack, such as the one that killed Goodwin, can be devastating.
Mussen explained that if a European bee colony is disturbed, the victim may be stung 12 to 20 times, or up to 200 times if the entire colony is somehow tipped over or otherwise dramatically bothered.
If a killer bee colony senses a threat, on the other hand, the victim could be stung around 2,000 times.
Yet another threat comes from the double-damaging venom. Meletin, the primary pain-inducing compound in the venom, makes up about 50 percent of the mixture. Another component, called "phospholipase A2," gives the venom the ability to damage human tissue. The damage can be so severe that the material can overload the kidneys, resulting in kidney failure days after the individual was stung.
Some doctors overlook the latter problem and release patients before the kidney threat is treated, according to Mussen. In one case, Mussen had to advise a victim's wife to have her dying husband go through dialysis, which eventually saved his life.
Africanized honeybees resulted from a bee breeding experiment that went horribly wrong. Now their numbers continue to expand across the United States.
According to Mussen and an information sheet provided by the University of Arizona College of Agriculture and Life Sciences, the bees are connected to research conducted by Brazilian geneticist Warwick Kerr. The Brazilian Agriculture Ministry had Kerr bring African honeybee queens to Brazil for breeding experiments.

Full bodied wines that have concentrated fruit and are higher in alcohol and/or tannins. Some need age.
Ripe and full-bodied, this wine exudes both comfort and sophistication. Indulgent yet refined, starting with its bouquet, with aromas of plum, blackberry, anise, leather and vanilla. Followed by rich, spiced flavors, such as blackberry, black cherry, cocoa, orange peel, black pepper, currant, and earth. As always, the Shea drinks beautifully in its youth, but deserves time to mature in the bottle.
"Medium-deep ruby color; deep, ripe, rich stewed cherry aromas with some spice and earthy notes; ripe, rich, deep and complex cherry flavors; lots of spice and forest floor notes; silky texture; good structure and balance; long finish.

"The 2006 Pinot Noir Shea Vineyard is dark ruby with an expressive perfume of black cherry, black raspberry, and spice. This leads to a mouth-filling wine with savory flavors, mineral and earth notes, and a firm structure. It should evolve for 3-4 years and be at its best from 2012 to 2021. "

The Wine Advocate
"Deep, bright red. Explosively scented bouquet of ripe red berries and cherry, along with smoky mineral and incense qualities. Deeper on the palate, which offers sweet red and dark berry preserve flavors, velvety texture and a late note of candied rose. Gentle tannins add grip to the long, gently sweet finish. I'd give this another couple of years in the cellar but there's plenty going on right now."

The newest installment of the legendary EA Sports video game Madden was released on Tuesday, and from what we hear the game includes a number of updates and improvements. Unfortunately for Giants defensive tackle Marcus Thomas, none of those updates resulted in the game using his proper identity.
Kotaku shared the screenshot you see above with us, and the man you see pictured next to Thomas' name is the wrong Marcus Thomas. That Marcus Thomas is a former NFL running back who last played for the Broncos back in 2009. According to the Giants' Thomas, the video game creators have been making the same mistake for years.

Parent involvement
Great caring teachers and wonderful education program. My son loves to go to school; he is learning and growing both academically and spiritually.
We attended in 08 and had a homeroom mom who hindered our child and family from getting involved and making friends. This made it hard for my child to be happy at school and want to go each day. We were church members and hoped for a combined family with school. We ended up needing to find a school first.
Our son has attended RCS for many years now, and I can't say enough about the school. The staff is like family to us. Everyone is always so nice and friendly. The curriculum the school uses is so far advanced compared tothe public school system. I, nor my husband, have never encountered any problem attending any of the school functions or field trips with our son. The teachers were always extremely grateful for any volunteering we were able to do. I would recommend RCS to anyone looking for a great school for their children.
What a wonderful experience my children have had at RCS. It is a blessing to know that they have quality teachers who not only care about their academic achievements, but their spiritual growth as well. No place is perfect, but I'll pass judgment on that when I reach perfection. I believe that our attitudes determine most of our experiences in life, and if you are expecting great things, you will find them. I love being at a place that accepts us where we are and takes us where we need to go. Thank you RCS family for making my kids love school!!
We attended K5 this past year and I am sad to say that our family had to deal with a lot of discrimination. Some parents who are also graduates themselves also have their children attending seem to get preferred treatment. I also noticed that while the atmosphere appears to allow all parents to actively be involved it really has been decided on which parent will actually help out. This RCS graduate parent was so hateful in her own personal goals to discriminate that she went as far to create a lies about another parent that did not exist with the teacher and brought additional parents into the drama. Sadly this caused a judgement to be passed on that poor student who was treated unfairly, and her family also suffered. I am disappointed that the school stands behind her actions and refused to remove her from its volunteers.
Our 2 sons attend RCS & this is our third year with my older son. I cannot say enough good things about the school. Someone commented about having deep pockets, but it's a BARGAIN compared to most private schools in Tampa. They do not demand money every few weeks. They have one fundraiser every year at the beginning of the school year, beyond that, they may ask for money for little things like field trips, teacher appreciation, etc.. You would get that at public school too. The staff & administration truly care about your kids. The staff do a great job at keeping the parents informed & they are very quick to deal with discipline issues. It's incredibly satisfying to see our values reinforced by the teachers. Putting our kids in this school was the best decision we made.
My children have attended RCS for many years. It is a financial sacrafice, but it is well worth it. I cannot begin to say how thankful I am for such an awesome school! I hope RCS will remain a vital part of the community for many more years to come!
Our son has atttended RCS since August 08 in the K-3 program. He enjoys school and is eager and excited to get up and go every morning. His teacher is absolutely wonderful, and we could not be more pleased with our son's K-3 experience this year.
we moved to ruskin and reviewed the statistics of ruskin elementary and looked for alternatives. we had him at a A public school previousily and the poor teacher had to deal constantly with discipline problems with the other students. They had cut the teacher aid program and my wife was almost there full time to help. It is not a problem here as problems are dealt with quickly. There is no spanking but parents get involved. The school tuitition is about 1/2 of private school in Tampa and the academic program and standards are the same. If we were to switch back to Public School my son would be a couple grades ahead of the students there. If you can afford and want to invest in a quality education this is where your child needs to be.
My son is in K-3 at this school and we both could not be happier! He has taken tremendous academic leaps since he has been here. He loves this school which keeps him engaged everyday. Most importantly the teachers are wonderful!
This school is excellent the teachers are very involved and pay individual attention to the students, and help with they're grades!!! i love rcs! ARE TEAM IS RED HOT!!(my daughter is a cheerleader)
My daughter attended kindergarten here and will continue. The curriculum is wonderful; however, your pockets need to be deep. Besides tuition, seems every few weeks they were demanding more money. All in all, it beats the alternative of Ruskin elementary.
This is more than a school, we're a family!!!!!!!!!
Nice option to the public school system. They are a small school and get to know your children well.
I think Christian schools are very important! This school is ran by great leadership.

'From Russia with Doubt' | Book Launch, Opening and Discussion with Adam Lerner
Opening reception: Thursday, November 14, 7–9 pm
7–8 pm: conversation about the book with author Adam Lerner and Cabinet magazine's Sina Najaf
8–9 pm: reception and book signing
Cabinet, 300 Nevins Street, Brooklyn, NY
In 2010, Adam Lerner, the director of the Museum of Contemporary Art Denver, did something unheard of in the museum world: he mounted a large exhibition of paintings without first knowing whether they were real or fake. Painted in the Suprematist and Constructivist styles of early twentieth-century Russian avant-garde masters, the 181 canvases had been acquired by amateur collectors Ron and Roger Pollard from a mysterious seller in Germany. The man, who they met on eBay, claimed that the paintings had been found in an abandoned shipping container held in German customs since the 1980s.
This event—which celebrates the publication of From Russia with Doubt, (Princeton Architectural Press)—Lerner's book on the making of the exhibition and the stakes involved with showing unauthenticated artworks also marks the opening of an exhibition co-organized by MCA Denver and Cabinet featuring a selection of paintings from the Pollards' collection. The evening will include a discussion with Lerner about the value of inauthenticity and the benefits of not knowing within the modern cultural institution.
Exhibition dates: November 18–29, 2013 (closed Thanksgiving)
Gallery hours: Monday to Saturday, 12–6 pm
Location: Cabinet, 300 Nevins Street, Brooklyn (map and directions here)
Organized by the Museum of Contemporary Art Denver and Cabinet

Netflix: A big empty promise?
Reed Hastings thinks he has something with his company. He might for now, but that doesn't mean the future is bright.
By Rocco Pendola
I don't think Reed Hastings thinks the company he's running, Netflix (NFLX), is anything but a tangible, real growth company. In fact, I consider Hastings a relatively well-intentioned guy who truly believes he holds the key to the future of -- for want of a less anachronistic term -- "television."
And, to a certain extent, he's got something with Netflix. Whether he actually conceived it or not, the whole DVD-by-mail thing was genius. He killed that, albeit prematurely, and gets 30 million or so subscribers to drop $8 a month for a limited slate of second-run (and beyond) TV shows and movies as well as a skimpy original programming schedule. Quite a racket.
And there's NFLX the stock. It's up 277% since I suggested investors prepare to buy it before it rises from the dead last summer (TheStreet). After seeing the stock past $100 and $200 (TheStreet), $300 a share by summer would not surprise me one bit (TheStreet).
That said, putting all your coins in NFLX might end up tantamount to loading your 401K with company stock like all those poor Enron employees did years ago. Enjoy the ride -- no doubt -- however do not get sucked into believing you have invested in a great company with a promising future. Without more bailouts, Netflix will be worth nothing because it never really had much of anything real or tangible outside of the red envelope.
In light of competing news stories from last week, let's consider the reality I will continue to hammer home, just as I did prior to 2011 NFLX implosion I predicted.
First, via Yahoo Finance, comes word that Netflix has signed another deal with Disney (DIS) that gives it access to kids' programming. This comes on the heels of what will go down as an anomaly and, quite possibly, a mistake by Disney to award Netflix "exclusive" first-run access to its movies come 2016 (TheStreet).
Second, via Bloomberg, Disney's ABC Network plans a TV Everywhere app that will give pay-TV subscribers access to ABC programming.
Let's quickly and clearly make sense of this as it pertains to Netflix.
TV Everywhere, while still fragmented, continues to evolve. Make no mistake, TV Everywhere is not a scattered assortment of apps because old guard media executives are stupid. It is what it is because they're incredibly smart. They just don't run around telling everybody how smart they are like the Netflix CEO does.
Because, like Hastings, old media leaders see the future, however -- and this is the key part -- unlike Netflix, they control it. In fact, they have almost sole control over the future of "television." The old guard represents the future of video entertainment consumption as much as it does the past. Also, unlike Netflix, the old guard enjoys the luxury of overseeing a slow evolution.
Given the affiliate fees they collect and multi-million dollar gravy train checks for mostly stale and some strategic content they cash from Netflix, Amazon.com (AMZN) and others, there's no need to rush. Why bust a model where you sell scraps to glorified third-party bootleggers such as Netflix while you control the most coveted programming (sports, popular originals, top cable series, etc.)? (TheStreet)
I know this. The old guard media knows this. Deep down, Reed Hastings even knows this.
That explains his final Hail Mary pass from Netflix: its simultaneously impressive and lame original programming push.
Time Warner (TWX) executives and employees, particularly the ones at HBO, must chuckle as Hastings dribbles out originals such as "Hemlock Grove" and "House of Cards." They represent a hope and a prayer of survival in a world where premium outlets such as HBO dominate original programming with hit after hit, year after year.
If the originals don't work beyond anybody's expectations (and, possibly, even if they do), Netflix is toast.
Disney must be seeing success with its first big TV Everywhere app -- the one that streams ESPN programming -- because it's about to go big by spreading ABC content across platforms alongside an aggressive advertising push. That's the future. One that doesn't involve Netflix. Because there's no reason it should or possibly can.
The old guard media doesn't have to buy Netflix. They already effectively own and control it. They allow Netflix to exist on their terms. As those terms evolve to include the old guard streaming more of the content it also owns and controls, it's game over not only for Netflix, but other disparate streamers. Without a novel approach, you're gone.
Because of its uniqueness, versatility and strong cash, revenue and profit position, Google (GOOG) might have the best chance at survival in partnership with and in competition against the old guard media.
For attendant thoughts on the beginning of YouTube's subscription push, as it relates to Netflix and the bigger picture, see my appearance from last week with Jake Tapper on CNN.
