Peering at the radiating faces of happy families
So much joy emanates from well-to-do children's sparkling eyes
Wish I could replace the grief, put smiles on the faces of my sons
Without a glimmer of hope even promises of warm meals would be lies
In the brown eyes of my sons, the same eyes their mother, my wife
Sadness the sacrifice, a courageous mother giving life
So great a zest for life she sacrificed to give her sons life
But now greed hath put her seed in peril and my world in strife
No "Help Wanted" signs in the windows of Main Street's bustling stores
The aroma of fresh bread wafts tauntingly from the bakery
With my hands in pockets, finding not even loose change
Overcome with hunger and jealousy, should I resort to thievery?
Mind reeling, contemplating abating moral principals
Suddenly appear familiar brown eyes amid face so dear
The image of deceased wife, Spanish born eyes filled with tears
Speaking, "Abe, the Lord is gracious, walk until head is clear"
I follow the light in her warm eyes reflecting in glass windows
They lead me down the road to a park at the end of town
Dressed in ragged clothing, a man sits with a smile of peace
Breathing white puffs in frigid air, this gentle soul sees my frown
The message is plain, as my fears begin to clear
There is a greater depth in a soul of love well kept
The night is far spent; I kissed the hand of this gentle man
He smiled sweetly and said, "Lift up heavy head from dread"
I look up to see sun glistening on snow-laden pine boughs
It's here, Christmas Day, and I've left my children alone all night
An ache in my heart compels me to race quickly back through town
Breathlessly, I reach my porch unprepared for a welcome sight
Hearing laughter within, I smell, yams, turkey and ham
I open my door, on the floor, presents piled high as well
Laughing with glee, sons kiss me, sparkle of brown eyes I see
Sparkling brown eyes, of Spanish descent, love is evident
"From where in the world did all this come," I ask my sons
"Beautiful lady with Spanish brown eyes, stopped at our door
She said a strange thing, as on the floor our gifts were lain,
'Tell Abe keep the faith; a mother's love is stronger than the grave.'
Her hugs and kisses, will be greatly missed! Who was she, Daddy?"
Thank you, Moses, for joining me and guiding me in this write. Merry Christmas, dear
W-hen the fullness of time had come, Jesus was born behind an Inn in a cave-like stable.
I-n the Inn there was no room for the Son of God, no room for the Saviour of men.
S-tar was shining so bright above the stable for the shepherds to find their way to Him.
E-ven angels proclaimed His birth to those shepherds "Unto you is born this day."
M-anger is where Mary and Joseph first laid him. It was filled with hay.
E-very animal there must have known that their Creator had come that day.
N-o one knew the depth of love God had, to give His Son to dwell among men.
S-ame star guided three kings from the Orient, who studied the stars and heavens.
T-hese wise men from the East came saying "Where is He that is born King"
I-n their hands they brought him gifts of gold, frankincense and myrr.
L-ike these three wise men, wise men still seek him today!
L-ove is the reason that God sent His only Begotton Son into the world to save us.
S-eeking for you and me, yes God was seeking for us because we had left Him.
E-veryone, yes, all we like sheep have gone astray. Everyone to his own way.
E-ach one has to make his on decision to follow Him or not to follow Him.
K-ing, born to be a King. King of the ages. King of the past. King of the future.
H-eaven, He came from Heaven to earth to show us the right way.
I-niquity, the Lord hath laid on Him the iniquity of us all.
M-elody, He gives us a sweet melody, we sing many songs of praise to Him.
T-ree, A Christmas tree, the love that Jesus had for us, to die on a tree.
O-nly one life and how soon it passes. Only in life can we accept His Love.
D-eliverance, He came from Heaven to preach deliverance to the captives.
A-cknowlege Him and accept Him. Behold now is the accepted time.
Y-ou, Yes, this Christmas Love was for You. Will You accept this love?
For Brian Strands Christmas Love contest.
God is always love
Forever seek the kingdom;
Praise the creator
Keep giving what you can give
Please endure until the end
Beautiful Heavens
Protecting the meek ones earth
Watching over us
Helping us to cope with life
Comforted with hope and trust
When you find rhythm
You find your hearts inner core
Celebrate the times
Make them better than before
Reminisce and dance all night
Christmas shopping I will go
Red kettles at department stores
Sidewalks covered in snow
Bell-ringers spreading Christmas joy
Volunteers bring Christmas cheers
Give a dollar or two or more
For the needy the bells ring clear
Red kettles need to be filled
Goodwill is in the air
Giving donations is what it's about
For those in despair
It's the Christmas sharing and giving part
"Jingle Bells" for Kim's contest
Untie the knot this Christmas,
Have a look inside
At the gift you have been given,
It may be to 'cool' to hide!
Undo the layers of wrapping,
Find out what's hidden there.
Be careful how you open it;
It says, "Handle with care."
Unto you this gift is given,
It's stamped 'FROM GOD ABOVE'.
He sends this blessed present,
With unrequisite love.
Understand there is no motive.
This gift is free indeed.
It's given to each person,
Who truly has a need.
Unlock your heart this Christmas,
Let peace and joy flow through.
Then Christmas will be special;
Especially for you!!
Eternally waiting for the second coming
a mother's heart flutters weakly, slow snow fills the dreary sky
the cars snake hypnotically forward twinkling red and gold lights
the sky is full of travelers hoping for a soft landing mother's heart flutters
slush streaked and faux-fur wet, bedraggled entry to the terminal obtained
terminal, once inside the reality of the name brings clarity to the wait
the stale high rise air twitters with sparrows, I perch as do they and wait
plastic benches hold little Christmas cheer, the blackboard rolls
flight 231 from San Francisco mother's heart flutters DELAYED
Starbucks may be the only star in this evenings sky
french fries grease the tile floor as a small child feeds the birdies
Deck the Halls blares fresh from the can, a longing for cotton balls rises
Soon soon I will see him again, the only egg we'd put in life's basket.
The Black board cycles and flight 231 shows NOW LANDING
a mother's heart flutters scarf and glove in hand the gate exit sought
Like action figures each weary homebound traveler springs
into the waiting arms of Mother or Father or the total gaggle
of loved ones squealing and waving their arms
mother's heart flutters home, home again, my son.
There is nothing with so much life as a Christmas snow
The crisp air is still as little dancing stars float to the earth
Strong old trees become burdened with drifts of white upon their bows
But seem honored to be dressed in such finery and appear almost to move
In fact, everything has come to life to watch the snowfall.
Then everything is quiet
There is a whisper in the air
It ripples through the trees
See the birds, they are the first to recognize the whisper
As the Masters of Chorus, the birds know it is a song
They sit as true musicians memorizing the lyrics and rhythm
So, the snow speaks, the voice is old, like it has sung this song many times
As the squirrels could tell you this is a lullaby, and they begin to search from their
perches in the trees for the newborn
And life and love has never felt as strong as now
A horse in its pastures stomps his foot disturbed
Though he hears the song the birds do and the lullaby the squirrels hear, he,
along with all of the worlds creatures, could swear he just heard a cry
The squirrels chatter with laughter, knowing they where right and the birds take
up the snow-song to welcome the child they heard cry
And then they stop and the world is silent
The snow has stopped falling
The cry was only a memory from Christmas long past
The child, a child of time whose
Voice comes with the Christmas snows,
To give every soul the chance to hear
The song of joy and love and beginning,
So it is never forgotten;
The song of the Christmas Snow
Someone is lost and afraid
Someone who wanders the night
Someone who cries in the dark
And who waits for the light
Someone clings by a thread,
Under harsh summer skies...
Someone we pass on the street
There are strangers we see
Whose paths we have crossed
Where the cruel fates were tossed
Where loneliness creeps
Where all hope has been lost
Don't cast aside...give just a glance
Where heartache abides, offer a chance
To heal wounded pride
Don't brush aside
Somewhere are those who have none
Alone in the sun
Somewhere a hungry child sleeps and a mother that weeps
So frightened each day of being alive
Look in her eyes...
Someone who needs just a friend
Someone who needs helping hands
Someone who, like it or not
Will need you to share..... a little, a lot,
Help her survive, or give him a start
A gift, big or small, a piece of your heart,
Carry her pain, so she can walk tall......
On a bright summer's day
Bring Christmas their way...
Where rainbows begin
To a place in the sun
Where the smiles never end
Don't look away ....be someone's friend..
Give a piece of yourself
Don't sit on the shelf
Bring joy to those eyes...
A Christmas surprise
Wrapped with love in July!!
Tomorrow we'll have a party, all my friends will be there
And Prezzies will be opened and Christmas we'll share
And Susie will grin in her red flaming hair
And Alice with her doll, in her new wheel chair
Ned will strum his guitar and we'll all start to sing
And laughter and cheer this Christmas will bring
And I'll sail my boat across the Spanish Maine
Explore the Antarctic fighting storm and hurricane
And though Timmy's Jewish, he'll get his brace and his bear
Hanukkah and Christmas it's the season we all share
And we'll be as happy as we could ever be
And we'll thank the folks from Variety
They give plenty of Prezzies for all us kids
And they come and play with us invalids
They donate millions of dollars for all child care
Isn't it nice to know that they're there!
Right now I'm quite sleepy, but I hear jingle bells
The sound of a sleigh "It's Santa!" Tim yells
But it's only the nurse making her round
Santa won't come till we're all sleeping sound
So as I lie neath the covers, all cosy and tight
I smile when I think Santa's coming tonight
And I'm as hopeful as I could ever be
Santa got his instructions, this year from me!
She stood at her window,
looking out on the world,
alone this Christmas,
this frightened young girl.
The night had come,
without making a sound,
as the snow began falling,
lightly powdering the ground.
Only eighteen,
when she said I Do,
her childhood sweetheart,
and their love so true.
Ready to see,
this world as one,
planning their first Christmas,
so much left undone.
Then one day,
that dreaded letter arrived,
orders to leave,
and she held it and cried.
When he came home,
he held her close,
trying to comfort her,
reminding her, why he had to go.
He told her softly,
I love you so,
but I am a soldier,
this is what I chose.
Decorate our tree,
in red, white, and blue,
and this time next year,
I'll be back home with you.
Merry Christmas to our Military,
their families, and friends.
We love you all,
and our prayers we send......
A little girl lost her home this year, for her, Christmas wouldn't be there.
Her family was angry from all the troubles, they simply couldn't repair.
Don't bother us about presents her parents said, they were depressed by their fate.
With bitterness they said, you'd be lucky to have dinner tonight, or even a plate.
Life was harsh, nowhere to go, anger and fear had put their souls, in a terrible place.
The little girl had found no hope or joy, lurking near their old car, of late.
The car was their home, gas money was scarce, and with few places they could park.
Yes, their troubles had slowly extinguished, that precious hopeful spark.
Without that spark, they'd never find their way, from this terrible place of cold and dark.
And life's darkness grew deeper nightly, as hope vanished under a reality so stark.
Even the very fiber of her family, seemed to be shattering slowly, slowly, apart.
The child felt alone here in this dark car, as sadness tried to engulf her little girls heart.
The future seemed filled with hopelessness, as shame and dread, were leaving their mark.
Embarrassment to be seen and turned away, made it hard for them to reach out, to restart.
But life goes on, and we can't fear to rebuild, or the future will be hard to impart.
The girl suddenly declared there's more to life, and she wouldn't let it conquer her heart.
She decided triumphs will come, and all will get better, if she held to that hopeful spark.
Seeing the desolation and anger here, she couldn't stay around, she had to get away…
So she climbed out of the car, and she walked into town, not so very far to stray.
She went and looked at the store windows, where Christmas was being displayed.
The music and people filled her heart, lifting her spirits, deep inside, that day.
She noticed a store, way down at the end of the row, on the next block, where it lay.
No one was there, it seemed lonely, and the darkness was again, spreading it's decay.
She ran there in time to see an old man closing up, with sadness on his face betrayed.
What use were his goods, if no one would shop, or come down along his way?
The super store down the block, was daily making him lose more and more in the fray.
He could no longer afford to hire people, and the season had very little time, to stay.
As they talked the girl saw that she couldn't let the darkness take another, so she prayed.
Then she told the old man, if he'd open the shop, she'd bring customers down his way.
She added, she'd find reasonable workers, if her family could live upstairs, she portrayed.
First bring the customers, he said, and the rest will be yours little friend, he conveyed.
She had him put his best toys, as a contest prize, and to add lots of lights on the display.
He set a contest, "Winners-the best collectors for families in need" on Christmas Eve.
He put out a bright contest sign, but still nobody came to his end of the block, to survey.
So she had him call the Salvation Army, for a kettle, Bell ringer, and Carolers, who came
Lickety split, their way.
Then she had him call a dear old friend, and farmer, to bring a tractor full of bails of hay.
Another volunteered his horse and sleigh, both, to see the city lights thru New Years Day.
This was a great idea, since the older drivers, could use the help, for their bills to pay.
The girl ran all over spreading the excitement, and to come see the prizes, his way.
The families suddenly started heading toward his door, and to those wondrous rides.
At that moment her parents came, and she explained what her hope, had improvised.
Her father talked a contractor into building a disabled family a home, to help advertise.
He could get a tax break; come to this store for supplies, and hire unemployed workers, he devised, so wise.
In the end, each night grew brighter, because of a girls hope, and heart-warming delight.
And the old man began smiling for the first time, in a long, long, time, starting that night.
All was saved, a home was found, and another built, as a sad little girl taught grownups to smile along the way…
You might say, A Spark of Hope lit a candle, then a raging fire, which was burning bright by Christmas day.
The moral to my story is:
Never give up on Hope; it's your best friend, as life brings its troubles your way…
Know that with time, a good heart, good will, and friendly ways…
You can find God's gifts again, if you don't let the dark take you away…
"Sir Cliff Richard "
I do wish I could meet you, properly I mean,
To actually speak to you, would be a dream.
I've been to see you three times during the last few years,
Although sitting watching you almost reduced me to tears,
Tears of happiness that is, I hasten to add.
I've adored you from afar, since you were not much more than a lad.
Twice I have seen you at Nottingham's Royal Concert Hall,
Doing your Gospel Concert, but there were no seats left in the stall.
So up at the very top we sat.
I was scared to move in case I fell flat.
Then you came on and started to sing.
It was a fantastic experience I would not have missed it for anything.
Although we went to see you in October, they had Christmas trees on the stage,
Because the show was being recorded for the Christmas edition of Songs of Praise.
When it came on television, I videoed it so I could watch it all over again,
And again, and again, and again, and again.
My favourite songs are "From A Distance" and "The Twelfth Of Never."
I could listen to you, forever and ever.
I also like the song you did for Princess Di.
Although when I listen to it, I really could cry,
Especially the words, "All That Matter's in the End Will Be,
The Love In You And The Love In Me.
With a 20 Year Tranquillizer Addiction, and Agoraphobia,
I've Been To Hell and Back.
But Thank God, My Life Is Now Back ON Track.
I sat with 12,000, People at Sheffield Arena, Just to see You,
Years ago this would have been impossible for me to do,
Now my greatest wish in life is too,
Get The Chance Just To Meet You.
Long ago, one Christmas morn, in a stable a child was born
Innocent, helpless and small
How could we believe He'd someday die to save us all?
On His mother He depended for his every need
How then could we imagine it would be by His blood alone that we'd be freed?
Growing up in a time and place so different from Heaven above
Living and dying here on Earth, what a symbol of His love.
To the cross He lovingly went
Knowing it was for our sins alone that He had been sent
Dragging His cross up to that hill where men were condemned to die
Jesus, our Savior suffered the fate while we were all passed by.
"King of the Jews," that's what the sign had read.
Hanging just above His thorn crowned head.
Blood spilled from nail driven hands and feet
As Christ suffered a death most bitter and sweet.
The pain and agony He lovingly endured
To give us the gift of salvation, most blessedly assured.
He never counted the cost of a price that was oh so high
Giving up His last breath so we may never have to die.
Today He walks amongst us, having conquered the grave.
Loving, hoping and waiting for us to accept the gift that He gave
When on that day so long ago He died in our place
Proving the power of God's most amazing grace.
So this Christmas morning before you race for the tree
Take a moment to thank God for Jesus, for the gift of life eternally.
But don't stop there, unwrap that gift of salvation today
What better way is there to tell Jesus………Happy Birthday?!
I was just trying to remember the past
trying to remember the good people
and the bad people,
that i came across on my way,
i want you to know
that you are among the good people
that left a good trace in my life,
once again i just want to say thank you
for passing through my life,
is so short but is wonderful
i want you here forever.

Dear Alan Titmarsh, how are you.
I do hope you and everyone else, enjoyed themselves at the do.
If you are ever in Ruddington,could you please give me a hand.
I'm trying so hard to create a garden, with a matchbox sized piece of land.
I don't seem to have green fingers at all.
All the heads of the flowers, just jump off, when I'm playing football.
Everything I touch, and try to grow, seems to shrivel up and die.
It doesn't seem to matter, just how hard I try.
Today I have just planted the Christmas tree in a tub,
I hope it doesn't get some awful bug .
I want it to grow, but everyone keeps telling me it will die.
If it does I will cry.
Next Christmas I want this tree outside with fairy lights on it.
But if it dies my husband will bin it.
Yesterday I planted 100 bulbs all in tubs
But they will probably go to Australia or get eaten by grubs.
Last week I watch the secret garden on TV,
That is how I really want mine to be.
So please can you come and give me a hand,
And create me a beautiful garden, with this matchbox size piece of land.
Choose to be Happy
I am happy because I choose to be; my life is far from perfect.
Others are content but I make conscious choices to be Happy and to be a positive person.
You don't have to be rich or have a lot of money and material wealth to be happy.
Many wealthy people are poor in Spirit with all the money, fame and things that they have.
This Christmas Eve night as I write this poem I think about how I manage my money focusing on my needs first and then my wants.
I ask myself: Can I afford that? Do I need this? Can I wait for the store price to go down and get that dress on sale?
I hope that once I am financially stable with a decent job I can have a coat drive for kids age 1 through 16 in Trenton, New Jersey when every boy and girl gets a cute new coat and I hope that my story inspires others my battle with mental illness over 19 years…
I was sitting in the crowded train station with time to waste, waiting on the train to take me home on Christmas Eve. A very pretty, young lady, carrying a full backpack headed for one of the only open seats across the aisle from me next to a rather dirty and disheveled older man.
As she removed her backpack to sit down he glared up at her; she smiled a beautiful bright smile and said to him, "Merry Christmas".
"I don't celebrate Christmas", he barked up at her.
"Yeah? Well, that doesn't mean you can't be happy on the day that I celebrate Christmas. And I hope the day is merry for you as well."
"What is there to be merry about", he moaned, "A bunch of hypocritical religious zealots pretending to be nice to one another while the world goes to hell in a hand basket."
"Well, at least for that one day, most of us believe the hypocrisy, and even for just a few hours, we practice the morals that our religion tries to instill in us. At least on that one day, for us religious zealots, there is a glimmer of hope that we can save the world from going to hell and, I, for one, believe that is reason to be merry."
"Terrific! And, what does that get me," he whimpered.
"Well, what you get is this one time of year, when a twenty-two year old college girl is not afraid to sit next to you; smile at you; and, wish you a Merry Christmas. And, if you just say, 'Thank you' and 'Merry Christmas' back to her, she just may give you the biggest and best kiss you have ever experienced."
She stood back up and started to put her backpack back on as he simply stared up at her. Once she was situated and ready to move on towards her train, she stopped; smiled at him again; and, said, "Merry Christmas."
It seems I was not the only stranger that was witnessing this exchange. All of those around me were perched on the edge of their seats waiting to see what might happen. The old man cracked a little smile. A glimmer came to his eyes, and he said, "Thank you. And, Merry Christmas to you, too."
The girl leaned down and planted a kiss right on his lips for what seemed like ten minutes. Smiles lit up the faces of all the men, women and children watching this take place. When the girl finally pulled back, the old man was frozen in place with a big ole smile on his face. She adjusted her backpack and started heading towards the tracks. All the men she passed on her way who witnessed this exchange anxiously yelled, "Merry Christmas" as she passed, hoping for a kiss as well.
I looked back at the old man who was still in a dream. Suddenly he caught me looking at him and barked, "What are you staring at?"
I just shook my head back and forth and said, "Merry Christmas".
"Yeah! Well Merry Christmas to you, too" he shouted.

Born more than two thousand years ago
This Man actually gave His Life
So all the world would know

And live our life in faith
Our hope of eternity will never dim
He has prepared for us a place
Although the world may never see
The Truth He holds for all
The fact that He died to set us free
Is the greatest gift of all
So my Christmas miracle, Virginia dear
As we celebrate His birth
Is that people living everywhere
Would experience His peace on earth

For Carolyn Devonshire's contest
All I remember is going into the garage to get the snow shovel.
I am not even sure how much of the driveway I managed to shovel. Apparently, I was lying in the snow for several hours before one of the neighbors noticed me.
The next thing I remember is waking up from a deep sleep to the sounds of beeping machines with tubes and wires stuck into and on my body.
As I slowly regained consciousness and my eyes were able to focus, I was aware of a young, bald child looking down on me.
"Hi," said the smiling, angelic face. Given the child's age and complete baldness, I could not tell whether they were a boy or a girl. And, with the tube inserted in my throat and taped to my mouth, I was in no position to return their salutation.
I tried to remember who this child might be and why they were here with me. I guess my eyes displayed my confusion as the child said, "I'm Elizabeth. They let me walk around the hospital a little. Sometimes I sneak out of the oncology wing and look for people who have no visitors. I like to make sure someone is there when they wake up. I know I always like to see someone when I wake up from my operations."
She just stood above me smiling. I then noticed she was holding my hand.
"Sometimes it is hard for family members or friends to come visit. Some people just really don't like hospitals. And, I guess", she said, "not everybody has someone that close to them. So, I like to become their visitor for them. I hope you don't mind."
I didn't mind. Although it did make me embarrassed to realize that I fit in the latter category; I didn't have anybody that close to me.
She just smiled at me and petted my hand as the medications worked their magic on me and I started to drift back off to sleep. I heard a nurse come into the room and say, "There you are, Honey. You need to get back to your room now and leave this nice man be."
The next time I regained consciousness, I noticed a hand drawn picture of a house with a Christmas tree out front with a note that said, "I hope you get home before Christmas" and was signed by Elizabeth.
Each new day, I was welcomed by another drawing of Christmas scenes; smiling faces; reindeer; and, starry skies. All containing a happy note and all signed, "Love, Elizabeth".
After ten days of recovery and following the insertion of two stents into my heart, I was well enough to return to my empty home. On my way out of the hospital, I stopped by the Oncology Wing to say good-bye and thank you to Elizabeth. When I asked the nurse at the floor station where I could find Elizabeth, she replied, "Oh I'm sorry, Elizabeth is no longer with us."
I then said, "Well can you tell me her home address or phone number, I would really like to thank her for visiting me in my hospital room this past week."
The look on the nurse's face indicated that I misunderstood what she had meant. Elizabeth was no longer with us.
Sadly, I started walking towards the exit.
Just before I got to the elevator, I noticed an open door with a man lying on his bed, with tubes in his nose and throat and nobody else in the room with him. I went into his room and sat in the empty chair.
When he opened his eyes two hours later, I said, "Hi, I'm Joe. I noticed there was nobody here when you were brought back from your operation and I know how nice it is to see a smiling face when you wake up, so I thought I would sit here with you for a while. I hope you don't mind."
He squeezed my hand; gave a slight smile; and, slowly drifted off back to sleep.
What If Christmas Never Came???
What if Christmas never happened?
What if Christmas never came?
Things around here would be different!
It wouldn't be the same!
What if the baby Jesus wasn't born in a manger?
Mankind would be in serious trouble and in danger!
If Jesus wasn't born... There'd be no nativity.
We wouldn't be able to display this during our "festivity."
It's almost like this now!
It's an "ever increasing business."
It seems like nearly everyone wants
"Christ out of Christmas!"
Why does it seem like Christmas is
losing it's true meaning?
The very words; "Merry Christmas,"
seem to be quickly disappearing!
As many say; "Happy Holiday."
They worry they may "offend."
Having a "holiday" without Christ….
Once again!
We need to put Jesus Christ back into
our CHRISTmas season!
He is what Christmas is about! HE is the very reason!
May we all take some time to rejoice in our savior's birth.
May there be shouts of JOY! From the corners of the earth!
Let's not take Christ out of our joyous celebration!
We need him so much right now!
All over this great nation!
May we bring to him a heart of love
for everything he's done.
As we bring honor to Christ. God's precious son!
May we continually offer to him a heart filled with praise!
Not only at Christmas time… But all of our days!

It's been four years, away from my sweet home during Christmas day
Where I should share the family tradition at twelve and to cheer
To fix my webcam and headphone, and come what may
Welcome to my "Holiday Home" at this special time of year.
My wife and son displaying a warmth in their smile, reaching hands
With sluggish movements and static sound, trying to project it clear
At the peak of use of internet, bandwidth traffic, I tried to withstand
Welcome to my "Holiday Home" at this special time of year.
My wife with hand-held webcam tried to rotate to tour me inside
They have fixed old Christmas tree and angels as pendant for a bright nightwear
At the base, a glimpse of wrapped gifts with laces soon to be untied
Welcome to my "Holiday Home" at this special time of year.
I can hear voices of children doing their caroling
Barking dogs seem would like to join as their backup singer
My wife whispered to my son, 'please give these coins as a sign for thanking'
Welcome to my "Holiday Home" at this special time of year.
The threshold of a doorway, visitors do come and bringing gifts
The elders incite parlor games with special gifts and cash to stir
Only happened after family went to a midnight mass for spiritual uplift
Welcome to my "Holiday Home" at this special time of year.
A portrait of the Holy Family on the first Christmas eve
Within that stable, baby Jesus was lying in a manger
On Christmas eve, Jesus will visit every home and this is to believe
Welcome to my "Holiday Home" at this special time of year.

The fog rolls in surrounding me,
My hand before me, I barely see.
A heaviness as moisture clings to the air,
Ghost like shadows from trees that are bare.
I walk forward I don't want to look back,
I grab a new card from off of the stack.
I think of it like turning over a new leaf,
I take a deep breath and hope for relief.
I turn the corner there are lights shining bright.
Blue lights resonate and glow in the night.
A Christmas tree lit, entirely in blue,
Like a beacon in the fog it shines right through.
The Christmas tree lights shine much like my hope,
I try to break free with some slack in the rope.
They bring a smile and fill me with content,
As the fog thickens the lights don't relent.
They seem to glow within the fog,
I lose my bearing as I trip on a log.
I feel like a ghost upon a canvas of white,
It all disappears within the confines of night.
I hear a bell from a church on the hill,
Its haunting sound from what was still.
It seems to call to me to just forge on.
All of a sudden the ringing is gone.
I stand in darkness just me and the fog,
Something awakens, memories it jogs.
I think of my journey and all I've been through,
What has been done and what's left to do.
It hasn't been easy though it's not bad.
I have fond memories of great times I've had.
Still something's missing as I look for the door,
I know it can't be like it was once before.
The winds picks up, adds a chill to the air.
It awakens my senses so I really don't care.
I stand at the threshold to the future and past.
I will simply step outside, the shadows it casts.
A summer abroad
Homesick for my family
Silent nights abound
Building a snowman from sand
My loneliness melts away...
for Gail's "christmas magic" contest
Let frigid winter come,
it feels nice to be lonesome,
seeing myself snuggled up
in a comfort blanket holding a cup
of cocoa by this warm fireplace...
while the wanderer's frozen face
is dotted with the whitest snowflakes
as he rubs his red, freckled nose!
Isn't this an unforgettable moment
to delight me feeling the thrill
of the Season with its distinct chill?
Isn't this the magic of Christmas
when joy is felt in a calm land
by the sound of chiming bells?
Let frigid winter come and cover everything in glistening, deep snow,
and 'though the evening will not have the moon's glow,
brightness can lead my footsteps really far...
shouldn't I play a Christmas song on this guitar?
I will go from house to house and knock on every door...
tingle everyone with great joy by spreading the message of the Savior!
I'm very confident that going back home
stars will gleam and children will roam:
singing, shouting, swirling and throwing heavy snowballs;
happy angels will be heard on gelid gulls,
but who minds waiting in the bitter cold...
when a Divine Child comes down to redeem the sinful world?

" Fire And Ice "
Written by Andrew Crisci

There was a tree I remember that
Though the house seemed dark I swear.
Father had left us months ago
Now Christmas time was here.
Sister, well, she was only three
and knew not much of presents
I cried for many things that year
one of them loving parents.
On Christmas morning beneath the tree
a special Dolly waited
with joints that moved and eyes of glass
sorrow had abated.
Dolly, well she was an real angel
for she'd brought my Daddy home.
Convinced was I by twinkling eye
and sparkling golden comb.
Magical Dolly with moving hands,
no matter a bit broken,
the token Daddy gave to me
love had truly spoken.
War is over now,What if peace was not a dream?,Happy joyful scene.
Good News,
gold light
True Love
The three kings follow Good News, gold light
Jesus Christ is born bringing True Love.
Unwrapping this lovely box of once colourful and bright?!
So meticulously adorned; sculpted, throughout the ages of time
Only to find, hollow and empty, its promising dreams inside....
The grand fiasco of fantasias moments presented
This self-fulfilling delusion, standing before their eyes!?
Looking for love in all the wrong places; hopeless brides
These ribbons and bows dipped in, tomorrows, crimsons ties
Goddesses and gods, running out of tinsels glittering tides....
Genus trees; and all, was not what it seemed?!
To bleed these tears; the final chapters greatest of regrets
When one finds, the light beyond the mirage; a verse realized
No Santas; no reindeers; no toys and no smiles; just, goodbyes
Love, as empty as the ocean now; this box, once so bright!?
Eternals gift, of hate, doubt and spite; the wrappings of
Such falling....

This application claims the benefit of U.S. Provisional Application No. 60/227,788 filed Aug. 25, 2000.
1. Field of the Invention
This invention relates to storage compartments, and more particularly to storage compartments for use in a golf cart.
2. Description of Prior Art
Golf carts are widely used throughout the world to assist golfers in getting around on golf courses. Many avid golfers who live in a planned residential development having a golf course own motorized golf carts and often drive (or trailer) them to and from the course. Other golfers who use a golf cart provided by the course management often drive to and from their parked cars to load and unload equipment, beverages, and other items. Those driving personal carts from home do the same before leaving the house.
Golf requires a lot of equipment to play. Golf clubs, golf balls, and golf tees are indispensable items. Golf shoes and golf gloves are almost universally worn. To play comfortably, many golfers bring extra clothing such as shirts, socks, caps, or sweaters to use depending on weather conditions. An umbrella many times proves useful. Because of the prolonged physical activity, golfers often carry food or beverages along to refresh themselves. Some even pack a few of their favorite cigars or other smoking materials to indulge their cravings while enjoying the great outdoors.
Thus, essentially since the inception of the game, there has always been a need for some way to comfortably carry those items. Historically, whatever the golfer chose to bring along was generally placed in a golf bag and the golfer had to carry the heavy bag, or hire a caddy to carry it for him (or her). Golf bags have been used for many years, but they are better suited for carrying essential golf equipment. A golfer may pack an extra shirt, cap, or pair of socks in a golf bag, but there is room for little else because the equipment usually fills the bag. Some golfers use a pull cart having wheels to pull their golf bag along, but the size and weight of the golf bag is still a concern.
Since the advent of motorized golf carts, golfers have been able to carry more of their desired items. Golf carts are designed to carry a golfer and a golf bag, or even two golfers and two golf bags. Golf carts often have a basket in which a golfer can place his or her "street" shoes, extra clothing, or a cooler. The basket suffers many shortcomings, however. Clothing can become wet if a golfer is caught in a rain storm. Items can bounce out of the basket and be lost if the golf cart is driven off the cart path into the ungroomed sections of the course (an all too frequent occurrence for most golfers). Thus, the need persists for a way to carry all the desired amenities of the game in a practical, secure, and convenient manner.
The present invention uses an innovative design to produce a storage cabinet for use on a golf cart having a body with an upper compartment and a lower compartment, the body being removably attached to and supported by the golf cart. The upper compartment comprises an upper open enclosure and an upper closure member, the upper closure member being releasably attached to the upper open enclosure. The lower compartment comprises a lower open enclosure and a lower closure member, the lower closure member being releasably attached to the lower open enclosure. Each closure member can be hinged to its respective enclosure. The body may have a platform between the lower compartment and the golf cart to raise the other compartments. The lower compartment has shelves. The shelves may be removable or fixed. Removable shelves can be placed at various heights within the lower compartment. The upper compartment is a thermally insulated container, or holds a thermally insulated container.
So that the manner in which the described features, advantages and objects of the invention, as well as others which will become apparent, are attained and can be understood in detail, more particular description of the invention briefly summarized above may be had by reference to the embodiments thereof that are illustrated in the drawings, which drawings form a part of this specification. It is to be noted, however, that the appended drawings illustrate only typical preferred embodiments of the invention and are therefore not to be considered limiting of its scope as the invention may admit to other equally effective embodiments.
In the drawings:
FIG. 1 is an orthogonal view illustrating a storage cabinet for use in a golf cart in accordance with the present invention.
FIG. 2 is a front view of the storage cabinet of FIG. 1.
FIG. 3 is an orthogonal view of the storage cabinet of FIG. 1 without a base, showing the storage cabinet in relation to a golf cart.
FIG. 1 shows an embodiment of a storage cabinet 10 for use in a golf cart 11 (FIG. 3) in accordance with the present invention. Golf cart 11 is a conventional motorized vehicle having a seat for a driver 13. The storage cabinet 10 comprises a unitary body with two primary compartments 12 and 14 and a base 16. Upper compartment 12 sits atop lower compartment 14, the bottom of upper compartment 12 being rigidly attached to the top of lower compartment 14. Lower compartment 14 sits atop base 16, the bottom of lower compartment 14 being rigidly attached to the top of base 16.
Upper compartment 12 comprises a double-walled container, preferably of approximately rectangular dimensions similar to a box, having an outer wall 18, an inner wall 20, and a hollow lid 22, as shown in FIG. 1. The outer and inner walls 18 and 20, and the lid 22, are made of a durable, yet lightweight, material such as a hard plastic. Between the outer and inner walls 18 and 20, and in the hollow of lid 22, lies a thermally insulating material 23 such as polystyrene plastic. The lid 22 forms the top of upper compartment 12 and is pivotally attached to the back wall of upper compartment 12. When the lid 22 is closed, as shown in FIG. 2, the interior of upper compartment 12 is thermally insulated from the surrounding environment. Thus, upper compartment 12 can be used to store and transport chilled beverages or heated food items. When pivoted to its open position (FIG. 1), the lid 22 allows for easy insertion or removal of the upper compartment contents. Upper compartment 12 can also have a drain plug (not shown) to allow for easy disposal of water accumulated from ice melt.
In an alternate embodiment (not shown), rather than a thermally insulated upper compartment 12, a commercially available thermally insulated cooler will slide into a supporting enclosure formed on the upper end of lower compartment 14. In that embodiment, there is no separate lid 22; rather the cooler will have a lid. The supporting enclosure has no top, thus the cooler can slide in or out of the enclosure. The cooler thus becomes the upper compartment in the alternate embodiment.
Lower compartment 14 similarly comprises a container, preferably of approximately rectangular dimensions similar to a box, having an exterior wall 24, an interior wall 26, and a door 28. The exterior and interior walls 24 and 26 and the door 28 are preferably made of hard plastic. The space between the exterior and interior walls 24 and 26 may be solid fill or it may be a hollow air space, so long as structural rigidity is maintained. Similarly, the door 28 may be solid or it may enclose a hollow air space, so long as structural rigidity is maintained. The door 28 forms the front of lower compartment 14 and is pivotally attached to a side of lower compartment 14. Door 28, when closed, is held shut by a latch, strap, or some other releasable fastener 29.
The interior of lower compartment 14 is subdivided into smaller compartments by shelves 30. The shelves 30 can be used to separately store clothing, shoes, towels, golf balls, or other items a golfer may consider useful on the golf course. The shelves 30 are constructed of sturdy, lightweight material such as hard plastic or wood and may be integral to lower compartment 14, but are preferably supported directly or indirectly by interior wall 26. For example, interior wall 26 may incorporate several short ledges protruding slightly into the interior region of lower compartment 14, or it may have various tabs mounted to it on which shelves 30 may be secured. Shelves 30 are removable and can be spaced to accommodate variously shaped items.
As stated above, a base 16 is rigidly attached to lower compartment 14. Base 16 serves to slightly elevate compartments 12 and 14 and supports the entire load of the filled storage cabinet 10. Base 16 is optional and FIG. 3 shows an embodiment in which base 16 is omitted. However, use of base 16 more easily allows incorporation of wheels 31 so that storage cabinet 10 can be rolled to or from the golf cart 11. Also, by slightly raising lower compartment 14, base 16 protects against accidental influx of water or fine debris that may accumulate on the supporting rear ledge 40 of the golf cart 11.
The overall size of storage cabinet 10 of the preferred embodiment is approximately that of a standard golf bag. As FIG. 3 illustrates, the storage cabinet 10 essentially fills the space normally allocated for the golf bag of a player sharing the golf cart 11 with the driver of the cart 11. The storage cabinet 10 is sized and shaped to rest upon the rear ledge 40 of the cart 11. The storage cabinet 10 would normally have a footprint no larger than one-half of the area of ledge 40. The storage cabinet 10 is secured to the cart 11 with a strap 32 pulled snugly around upper compartment 12 and fixed to the cart 11.
The present invention offers many advantages over the prior art. Extra clothing is protected from the elements and can be organized for ready access. Because the clothing or other stored items are kept in an enclosed cabinet, they are less likely to be lost when jostling through the rough. With the abundance of storage space, a golfer can bring more contingent items that would otherwise be left behind based on the golfer's assessment, usually hours in advance, that a particular item will most likely not be needed. A secure insulated container provides a safer environment for food that could otherwise spoil in the heat.
While the invention has been particularly shown and described with reference to a preferred and alternative embodiments, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes in form and detail may be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.

We know youve seen these Aluminum Chain Curtains in restaurants, clubs, and high end homes. Now is your chance to get the look for less with ShopWildThings! Weve been working for two years to bring these to our product line, and they are finally here, they are totally fabulous! Each curtain features 68 strands of chain. These are not just fabulous. They are so rad that we are putting them everywhere we can think of. You can use them as a room divider, in a window or in a doorway. The chain links themselves are 22mm tall (not quite an inch). We have designed a very cool header rod with holes drilled out from which each chain hangs. The header rod is silver aluminum (very heavy duty) and measures 35 wide. Some customers like to paint the rod to match the chain (in cases where the rod will show) and if you do, you can use Krylon spray paint. It's so fast, cheap and easy to do, and sticks beautifully to our silver header rod. If you would like for us to paint it for you, we can do that for a fee, just place your order over the phone! The rod is 2 tall and each strand is 72 long for a total overall length of 74 long. If this is too long, simply remove some links.
Our Chain Curtains are made to order here in the U.S., right here at ShopWildThings in Arizona!

User Tip: If you're unsure of your vehicle type, you may skip the machine type selection box.
Please select make, model and yearAll Body Plastic
At a glance, the plastics on a dirt bike are the first thing that sticks out. You might have all of the best performance upgrades around, but nothing gives a great first impression better than the plastics. What exactly does this encompass?
Improve the look of your bike with new plastics from Rocky Mountain ATV/MC and make it look new again! Are your old plastics are tattered or cracked? We carry plastics that fit most bikes from the major motorcycle manufacturers (Honda, Kawasaki, KTM, Suzuki and Yamaha). Are you trying to get a more custom look to separate your bike from the others? We carry options with different colors to choose from.
We only stock products of the finest quality. That's why you can expect to find major names here like Acerbis, Polisport, Cycra, UFO and more. Want to see exactly what's available for your specific dirt bike? Just enter your motorcycle's make, model and year into our Parts Finder. We'll show you all of the plastics that we carry that are designed for your machine. Try it out now, and imagine how great your dirt bike will look with a new set of plastics.

Apple Music comes with a three month free trial, and after that a US$9.99 a month fee kicks in. If you aren't sure Apple's new streaming music service is for you and don't want to forget to disable automatic payments, read on to find out what to do.
Devs get New iOS 9 Beta Next Week with Apple Music Support
Apple senior vice president of Internet Software and Services took to Twitter Tuesday evening to confirm a new beta of iOS 9 is coming next week. He also said Apple Music would be coming to the next version of the iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch beta operating system at the same time.
The Mac Observer Spin The Mac Observer Spin is how we show you what our authors think about a news story at quick glance. Read More →
Seems developers want Apple Music right now in the iOS 9 beta. Looks like they'll have to practice a little patience while they wait for "early next week."
Apple Watch: Resuming to Your Last-Used App
Today's Quick Tip is truly quick but also truly useful. Do you want your Watch to keep, say, the music app active instead of switching to the clock face when you raise your wrist? Or would you like to make some third-party app stay open so you don't need to switch back to it constantly? We'll tell you how to turn on the setting to do just that!
Apple Lets iPhone Read Books Made with iBooks Author
Apple released iBooks Author 2.3 Tuesday, an update that allows the software to make ebooks that can be read on an iPhone. The company did so by adding two new ePub templates that work with iPhone.
Apple Updates GarageBand for Mac and iPhone: New Drummers, Apple Music Connect, Force Touch
Apple released GarageBand 10.1 for OS X Yosemite on Tuesday, as well as GarageBand 2.0.7 for iOS 8. Both updates add support for Apple Music Connect, allowing artists to upload content directly to Connect. The Mac version also adds ten new drummers, new patches, 1,000 new Apple Loops, support for Force Touch trackpad (which is currently only available on Apple's new MacBook), and more.
Apple Releases iTunes 12.2 Update with Apple Music Support
Apple released an iTunes update on Tuesday afternoon with support for Apple Music, the company's new streaming music service and Internet radio station. The version 12.2 update lets users try out and use Apple Music on their Mac and Windows PC—something we've already been able to do most of today on our iPhones and iPads.
Pay What You Want for the iOS Designer Bundle
Check out the iOS Designer Bundle, a collection of five training courses that will train you to design for iOS. Better yet, you can pay what you want. It works like this: pay the minimum—even a penny—and you get the first training course. Beat the average price, which is currently $12.31, and you get all five. 10 percent of your purchase price goes to Creative Commons, and if you make the top of the leaderboard at any time, you'll get five entries into a giveaway for an iMac with 5K Retina display. Hit any spot on the leaderboard at any time and you'll get one entry. There are details on the deal page.
Apple Says iTunes 12.2 'Coming Soon' for Mac and Windows
Apple's iTunes download page for Mac and Windows continues to offer iTunes 12.1.2, but the company added an "iTunes 12.2 coming soon" note. Apple Music, which launched earlier on Tuesday with iOS 8.4, requires iTunes 12.2 on Mac and Windows, and its absence has been greeted with annoyance and snark on the Interwebs.
Apple's new iTunes Terms & Conditions highlight Apple Music, Expose iCloud Music Library
On Tuesday, June 30, 2015, Apple updated their iTunes Store Terms and Conditions just hours ahead of the iTunes Music launch. Anyone downloading apps or app updates from the iTunes Store will have to agree to this, as will anyone installing iOS 8.4, as well.
The big changes are the inclusion of a new section detailing Apple Music, with mention of "iCloud Music Library" that sounds eerily familiar to iTunes Match (though iTunes Match is still listed elsewhere). Apple Music will require iOS 8.4, iTunes 12.2 and Android 4.1. Additionally, Apple now (for good reason) has the right to use your playback information to report to licensors and pay royalties. This covers both the new Apple Music service as well as iTunes Match.
Apple Releases iOS 8.4 for Apple Music Launch
As promised, Apple released iOS 8.4 on Tuesday ahead of the launch of Apple Music. The update includes support for Apple's new streaming music service along with bug fixes.

Click here to print the obituary below
Passed peacefully at 1:15 a.m. Thursday, March 14, 2013 after a valiant two-year struggle with cancer. Bob was born on October 12, 1934 in New Britain, Connecticut to Martin and Jessie Niedzwiecki. An only child, he attended and graduated from the University of Connecticut. After graduation, he proudly served in the
United States Navy
aboard the U.S. Battleship USS Floyd B. Parks. His professional career began in the insurance industry with the Erie Insurance Company. A few years afterwards, with the full support of his wife Annamarie, he decided to pursue what always had been his strong desire: a career in law. He applied and was accepted into the Duquesne University School of Law, earning his Juris Doctor in Law. His legal career included significant accomplishments. Bob attained Senior Partner status at one of Pittsburgh's prestigious law firms Meyer Darragh, Buckler, Bebenek & Eck. He litigated against
General Motors
and their vast legal resources. His nature assured each client was treated as personal and unique. After a long successful tenure, he left the large firm environment in order to establish his own practice with a partner. Located in Greensburg, he continued to provide genuine, high value legal representation until his retirement. Bob's personal family life began with meeting and marrying Annamarie Tkac. This April would have been their 50th anniversary. They have two daughters, Karen (Nedwick-Castro) and Amy (Meinert); two son-in-laws, Ric Castro and Kurt Meinert; as well as three grandchildren, Kyle (12), Brooke (10) and Brett (7) Meinert. Bob was looking forward to his fourth grandchild, Dylan Robert Castro, who is to be born in three weeks. Bob was a voracious reader, greatly enjoyed the occasional poker game with good friends and closely followed most sports. Bob's lifelong love and focus has always been his family. He loved attending his grandchildren's events, loved to take family vacations, loved debating sports, business and politics with his sons-in-law, loved supporting and guiding his daughters. Bob was the pillar of the family, and he will be missed ~ But most of all, he will be remembered. Funeral arrangements by BEINHAUERS, 724-941-3211. Friends welcome at 2828 Washington Road, McMurray, 15317, from 2-4 and 6-8 on Sunday. A Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated at 10:00 a.m. on Monday at St. Thomas More Church, 126 Fort Couch Road, Pittsburgh, PA 15241. Entombment will follow at Queen of Heaven Cemetery.

The minds of the Irish people have become inflamed by fiery debate on the issue of Marriage Equality. In two weeks, our country takes to the polls to vote on Marriage Equality, and should it pass, could make not only Irish history, but world history, by being the first country to legally enact it by popular vote.
I'm tired of students and young people as a collective being constantly ignored or patronised by the state... people forget that if you constantly damage the spirit of a generation and illegitimatise our opinions, it will demolish the hope and drive of those who not only have the potential to make huge positive impact in the UK, but worldwide.
In the era when AIDS was becoming more prominent and education about LGBTQ issues was needed more than ever, Thatcher's government decided that gays were not full citizens worthy of respect and that they were too much of a threat to be allowed equal rights. Thatcher thus became not only the 'milk snatcher', but also the 'gay dispatcher'.

Doc Rivers says Danny Granger 'ideally' would be a starter, but he has to mark him as active first
Mar 2, 2014, 12:30 PM EDT
Danny Granger was set to make his debut for the Clippers on Saturday, after signing with L.A. following a trade from the Pacers and a buyout from the Sixers. But a mistake by Doc Rivers when submitting his lineup inadvertently left Granger off of the game's active roster. From the Associated Press (via Basketball Insiders):…
It's official: Danny Granger is a member of the Los Angeles Clippers
Feb 28, 2014, 6:31 PM EDT
Doc Rivers realized earlier this season that this Clippers roster was not going to be enough to contend in the West. Now during buyout season he's gone and added some talent. Glen Davis as the third big will be the most important addition — he's solid and that makes him a massive upgrade over Ryan…
Reports: Danny Granger will sign with Clippers when he clears waivers Friday
Feb 28, 2014, 1:27 AM EDT
Doc Rivers has been looking for some help at the three — Jared Dudley has not panned out as hoped and Matt Barnes is solid as a reserve but not the guy who starts on a contender. Rivers even tried Hedo Turkoglu in that role. Now Danny Granger is going to get a chance. Granger,…

Feb 21, 2014, 10:14 AM EDT
It's not uncommon for NBA players to find out they've been traded under somewhat unusual circumstances; we've heard of players waking up from naps to discover they've been dealt, or even finding out from a teammate once a flight had landed. But the Clippers created an extremely uncomfortable situation for their players on Thursday that…

Report: Thunder had interest in trading for Iman Shumpert
Feb 20, 2014, 1:39 PM EDT
There was progress made on talks Wednesday between the Knicks and the Clippers that centered around a trade involving Iman Shumpert. It would have been a disaster for the Knicks, who would have received Darren Collison (who isn't good) and Matt Barnes or Reggie Bullock in exchange for Shumpert and Raymond Felton. Discussions eventually faded,…
Report: Knicks may be closer to dealing Iman Shumpert to Clippers, talking smaller trade with Nuggets
Feb 19, 2014, 8:06 PM EDT
A report earlier on Wednesday had the Knicks engaged in trade talks with the Clippers that would send Iman Shumpert and Raymond Felton to Los Angeles in exchange for Darren Collison and Reggie Bullock. Despite getting out from under Felton's contract, which is essentially for two more seasons beyond this one considering his player option…
Clippers' J.J. Redick out indefinitely with bulging disc in back, other injuries

UPDATE: 9:08 pm: The Clippers have made it official, saying J.J. Redick is out "indefinitely with a bulging disc in his lower back." While he certainly has a variety of injuries, it is the back that is the most serious. They still expect to have him back for the playoffs. 7:45 pm: This is pretty…

Feb 4, 2014, 8:00 AM EDT
No NBA head coach has been fired yet this season. Of course, "yet" is the key word there. Given the performances and the high expectations of a few teams in the Eastern Conference's Central Division, that could be changing soon. Here's a look at the tenuous positions of three coaches from that division, in order…
Denver's Randy Foye hits ridiculous leaning game-winning three (VIDEO)
Feb 4, 2014, 2:28 AM EDT
Just seconds before the Clippers' Matt Barnes had drained a three off a pass and a nice bit of improvisation from J.J. Redick. The Clippers had a two-point lead and looked like they were going to escape Mile High with a win. Then Randy Foye happened. Whatever Nuggets coach Brian Shaw drew up in the…
The Extra Pass: A big test for the Clippers; plus Thursday's recaps
Dec 27, 2013, 8:00 AM EDT
Pressure reveals character, and the last minutes of the Clippers road matchup with Portland did just that. Down the stretch, both teams played perfectly to their strengths. The Blazers ran everything through LaMarcus Aldirdge (32 points) on the left block, surrounding him with three-point shooters and daring the Clippers to double. The Clippers, meanwhile, put the…
Clippers Matt Barnes fined $25,000, not for foul to Love but for not leaving court
Dec 23, 2013, 6:05 PM EDT
We mentioned this when we brought you this ejection the first time — the foul didn't seem that bad but if you're ejected you can't hang around and argue with the referees. The league frowns on this. And by "frowns" I mean "hates." The Clippers' Matt Barnes was fined $25,000 for the incident above from…
Matt Barnes ejected for hard foul on Kevin Love (VIDEO)
