Kate Spade Siena Medium Serena, Handbag of the Day
Maybe it is a little bit of practicality lurking behind the love of fancy handbags, but even when I know how many really fantastic handbags there are for this season - and in general - it's nice to have at least one classic, everyday shoulderbag. Kate Spade's Siena Medium Serena fits the bill nicely, with classic lines, comfortable shoulder strap and a structured, reinforced bottom that will hold up well to everyday use without banging the contents of the bag around. There are also several interior pockets that will help keep you organized and provide room for things you need on a daily basis, like cell phones, pdas, pens and perhaps even reading glasses. The bag is made of waxed, natural cowhide and features a colorful nylon web detail, with a cotton twill lining and gold hardware. Price: $485.

Stay on 'Grand Masti's release in Punjab, Haryana lifted
Chandigarh, Sep 12 : Just two days after it stayed the release of Hindi film "Grand Masti" in cinema theatres in Punjab, Haryana and Chandigarh, the Punjab and Haryana High Court Thursday lifted the order.
The order, imposed by a single judge bench Tuesday, was vacated by a division bench.
The court had earlier stayed the release of the film, scheduled to be released across India on Friday, after a lawyer filed a petition complaining about its vulgar dialogues and obscene content.
He said that the movie promos were degrading women and that the content and actions in the film were indecent.
Starring Vivek Oberoi, Riteish Deshmukh and Aftab Shivdasani, "Grand Masti" is a sequel of the "Masti", which was released in 2004.
In his petition, the lawyer sought directions for the Central Board of Film Certification to reconsider its approval granted to allow screening of the film.

How about District 97 sharing space at OPRF?
By Terry Dean
Sharon Patchak-Layman, a longtime member of both the OPRF and District 97 school boards, has suggested a fix to D97's space issues at its current location. Patchak-Layman told Wednesday Journal last week that she thinks D97 should move its central office locations to OPRF.
D97 and the Park District of Oak Park are currently exploring whether to build a shared facility on the village hall parking lot. Patchak-Layman, a former two-term D97 board member, thinks the high school has plenty of space to accommodate D97 administrators and staff. The high school, she noted, is doing its own facilities' master planning. She also insists having both OPRF and D97 administrators under one roof will improve communication and the sharing of ideas between the two sides.
Sharing building resources, including the board room, would also be a cost-saving plus. She brought up her suggestion to fellow OPRF board members at their meeting on Thursday. It doesn't appear that D97, or for that matter the park district, is aware of her suggestion, but likely will by the end of this week.

OPRF Achievement Gap?
Posted: October 5th, 2012 9:19 AM
Ms Layman, again with an idea that is at best - half baked - even if it was well intended. Last I checked, OPRF it a Community HS - with at least 30% of funding coming from RF. So, if an idea like this EVER were to get the level of serious discussion, the HS would have to CHARGE D97 for any space accordingly - so no one gets shafted or a SPECIAL deal. Lets keep this above Board and OPEN disussions - nothing in Closed sessions.

Dubai, UAE (PRWEB) December 9, 2010
London Executive Aviation (LEA) has become the first executive air charter operator in Europe to add the new Embraer Legacy 650 business jet to the company's air operator's certificate (AOC) and charter fleet.
The Middle East Business Aviation show (MEBA) debut of Legacy 650 G-RBNS this week follows the aircraft's first charter flight for LEA, which brought a family from St Petersburg, Russia, to Dubai in exceptional comfort and style.
Patrick Margetson-Rushmore, LEA's chief executive, says: "The Legacy 650 acquitted itself superbly on its first charter flight for us. Not only did the aircraft's range cope effortlessly with the leg from Russia to Dubai, but the passengers and crew were struck by the extremely quiet and relaxing cabin conditions.
"We are delighted to be the first operator in Europe to make the Legacy 650 available for charter," he continues. "As one of Europe's most experienced Legacy operators, we are confident that G-RBNS will make an excellent complement to our five-aircraft Legacy 600 fleet and be an ideal choice for many longer-range missions."
LEA is exhibiting G-RBNS at MEBA this week on the static display.
Notes to Editors:
London Executive Aviation is one of Europe's largest executive aircraft charter operators. Under the company's worldwide air operator's certificate (AOC), award-winning LEA operates seven fleet types of business jet, ranging from the entry-level Citation Mustang to the transatlantic Falcon 900EX, covering a spectrum of business aviation needs. LEA operates seven bases around London. The company is owned by its management and has maintained a record of unbroken profitability since being founded in 1996. More information can be found by telephoning LEA on: +44 (0)1708 688420 or visiting: http://www.flylea.com.

I've been spending a lot of time on the train lately. As such, I have 2 hours a day, 5 days a week with which I have nothing to do except sleep, read, listen to music/audiobooks, eat, or some combination of the aforementioned. That's 10 hours of idle time! So, I've developed something short of an obsession with reading (and audiobooks, which I find to be fantastic as I can close my eyes and rest a bit while still enjoying a great story).
I've always loved reading, and the books I've enjoyed over the years have ranged from fun pulp books (like the Sookie Stackhouse novels) to heavy memoirs and biographies of people living in war-torn countries, and literally everything that falls in between. Lately I've been devouring as many pieces of travel writing as I can get my grubby little hands on. It all started with Paris, I love you but you're bringing me down, and I have not slowed down since.
I have re-read my favorite Bill Bryson books: Notes from a Small Island, I'm a Stranger Here Myself, Neither Here Nor There: Travels in Europe, and In a Sunburned Country. I've read The Geography of Bliss, Eat Pray Love, French Leave, Almost French, A Year in the Merde, Free Country: A Penniless Adventure the Length of Britain, and Searching for Peanut Butter in Paris. I loved them all.
Now, I find myself searching for what's next. What delightful tales can I find that satisfy my need to daydream in a blissful state of wanderlust?
If you are a reader of my blog, I am willing to bet you probably enjoy travel writing. Perhaps you have even read some fantastic books on the subject. I would love to hear about some that you may have particularly enjoyed. In turn, I promise to report back on some good reads I've discovered from time to time, so you too may fill your time with tales that take you to far away lands.
Happy reading!

Fun With Short Films – Dinner
A short film by John Buchanan, Dinner tells the tale of a predator who has been on the lose in a recent rash of murders. This particular instance focuses around a creepy dinner invitation – plain and simple.
Meant as an homage to Alfred Hitchcock, it came across more as a quirky made-for-TV murder sitcom. Did that not do an accurate job of describing it? Well, to be honest, I am having a hard time finding the right words to articulate my thoughts on this. The soundtrack seems out of place, and the acting could use some work. Still, the quality of the film and the simplicity of the set is admirable. I would also like to keep in mind, this opinion is just that, an opinion that belongs to me. In fact Dinner has been named as an official selection for the London Film Festival taking place on October 26th.
Want to form your own opinion? Take a look after the jump! Dinner clocks in at 7 minutes and is worth a watch. You can also find more information on the official movie website.
Fun With Short Films – Cargo (The Walking Dead Returns Soon I'm Excited Edition)
In honor of The Walking Dead returning TONIGHT on AMC, I have decided to focus on the Australian short film Cargo.
Well folks, the zombie apocalypse seems to have hit the land down under! In most popular media we don't seem to hear much about how the Aussies deal with such things. Well Cargo drops you into the middle of crisis with one such man's journey to find help for his baby daughter. It is a race against time that is both tense and clever.
A Tropfest 2013 finalist (not familiar with that festival? neither am I) does a lot with very little. You don't see too many zombies and there isn't a lot of dialogue to walk you through the plot. The visual storytelling is fantastic and provides the perfect amount of depth for a 7 minute short.
If you have been biding your time for The Walking Dead with the awful webisodes on their website, take the time to watch Cargo instead. You won't be disappointed.
Fun With Short Films – The Silent City
Sometimes short films tend to cram too much into a limited amount of time. That mindset is very understandable – we want a beginning, a middle, and an end to our stories. We want to feel like we know the characters and their motivations. The Silent City boldly avoids such an approach. Created by Ruairi Robinson and starring our favorite scarecrow Cillian Murphy – The Silent City is about a group of soldiers wandering a post apocalyptic wasteland.
What makes the film so bold are the gritty visuals. With a mood reminiscent of the war scenes in Full Metal Jacket and Saving Private Ryan, The Silent City accomplishes this within a 7 minute window. The Silent City effectively captures your attention without being fully invested in the background of the characters (because you don't know it). Come to think of it, you never really get a firm grasp on the plot either. What made me really appreciate this film is the knowledge that this is just a smaller piece of a bigger story. Whether we learn anything else of this tale, I wouldn't bet on it – but it sure is fun to speculate.
Check out The Silent City after the jump and let us know what you think on Facebook, Twitter, or in the comments below!
Fun With Short Films – Maggie Simpson in The Longest Daycare
In 2012 Maggie Simpson starred in her very own 3D short film. The Longest Daycare debuted prior to Ice Age: Continental Drift on July 13, 2012. This film would be the second Simpsons movie to grace the big screen and was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Animated Short Film.
In true Maggie fashion, The Longest Daycare features no dialogue, yet the story plays out rather effectively. Like any other Simpsons product, the jokes are present, albeit a bit more subtle. The story is constantly in motion; amazing animation and a fantastic soundtrack make The Longest Daycare a great watch and well worth the time for Simpsons fans and non-Simpsons fans alike. While I am nowhere near as passionate for the series as Kevin and Graham are (I argue it peaked around the 7th and 8th seasons), The Longest Daycare contains everything you would want in an animated short. Not that I saw Ice Age: Continental Drift - but I imagine this short was the best thing about that film experience for moviegoers over the age of 12.
Clocking in at approximately four and a half minutes – consider this a great way to cap off Simpsons Week! A special thanks to Kevin and Graham for putting together all of the festivities. The 25th season premieres TONIGHT on Fox – but until then you can watch The Longest Daycare after the jump! (more…)
Book Review: Once Upon a Time – Behind the Magic
Titan Books sent us a copy of Once Upon a Time – Behind the Magic, here is our review.
If it wasn't for my partner's TV habits, I don't think I would have seen a single episode of Once Upon a Time. She enjoys it as much as one possibly could I think, even taking time to look at this book with me. For a quick synopsis: Once Upon a Time revolves around the adaptation of fairytale characters such as Snow White and Prince Charming who have been brought into the real world with no knowledge of their true identities, due to the Evil Queen.
The book is well made with 176 pages of nice glossy images and information to satisfy any fan of the show and catch others up as it covers everything from the show up until now.
While I won't promise regular viewers will learn much more about Storybrooke and Fairytale Land, the new companion does unveil secrets from behind-the-scenes, from in-depth episode guides, to revealing interviews with co-creators Adam Horowitz and Eddy Kitsis (Lost). My favorite was the inside looks at the special effects and props and learning the writers' favorite episodes. There is a lot more in this guide, so for fans and newcomers, it's a definite companion for your bookshelf.
Once Upon a Time – Behind the Magic will be released October 1st Pre-order today! amazon.COM – amazon.CA

Fun With Short Films – A Tale of Benjen Stark
With summer officially ending yesterday I found it fitting that my review this week focused on a Game of Thrones fan fiction – 'Winter is Coming' friends. While I generally tend to steer clear of fan fiction, I made an exception in this case.
A Tale of Benjen Stark is set north of the wall as as the title character is out on a ranging mission. In a familiar scene, Benjen stumbles across a Wildling camp massacred. The production value is rather high and the limited dialogue is a benefit. Avoiding a lot of conversation can hide flawed acting and in this instance really allows the viewer to focus on the visuals. The production value of this fan fiction is rather high. Without giving too much away, not a lot of story progresses here. Again, this is another good thing as it doesn't create any inaccuracies with the plot that has existed or the plot that is yet to come.
Created by Benjamin Von Wong, A Tale of Benjen Stark clocks in at approximately 6 minutes. If you don't enjoy fan fiction, well then you may want to take a pass on this. If you can like it for what it is, this is worth a look! Check it out after the jump!
Book Review: Anno Dracula: Johnny Alucard
Titan Books sent us a copy of Anno Dracula: Johnny Alucard by Kim Newman, here is our review.
Firstly I'd like to say that I have never read any of Kim Newman's Anno Dracula series,Ryan did a review (a re-release title) around this time last year and was lukewarm to that particular entry. I have heard pretty good things about the books, they are often compared to the great read that is Interview With a Vampire. I can tell you now for someone who doesn't read this particular genre of books, I was hooked.
Anno Dracula: Johnny Alucard, is the first Anno Dracula series entry in over a decade, a long time to wait for fan, but worth it. Newman's dark and impish tale begins with a single question: What if Dracula had survived his encounters with Bram Stoker's Dr. John Seward and enslaved Victorian England? When vampire boy Johnny Alucard descends upon America, stalking the streets of New York and Hollywood, haunting the lives of the rich and famous, from Sid and Nancy to Andy Warhol, Orson Welles, and Francis Ford Coppola, sinking his fangs ever deeper into the zeitgeist of 1980s America, it seems the past might not be dead after all.
It's not necessary to read the earlier entries in the Anno Dracula series, but helps to know your vampire films and novels, and popular culture for the last several decades. Film and vampire lore is what kept me turning pages, Newman manages to touch on nearly every meme or mythos I can think of.
This book will delight fans of the series and bring in new fans as well, it's a fun and easy read put together beautifully by Titan Books.
I do not want to go into too much detail as I would hate to ruin a few surprises, so check it out for yourself and let me know what you thought.
But it today! amazon.COM – amazon.CA

Fun With Short Films – The Gate "Drugs are bad!"
The Gate will not provide you with a satisfying story arc. There, I said it – and it was the first thing I said. It's important to understand that so you aren't totally disappointed with the progression of this film. If you have an active imagination however, you could see it as a stepping stone into a much larger world. A lot of short films tend to push that concept, like a pilot to see if a TV series can be made. When I watched The Gate I felt a lot of components were there to make a really good film or television series.
Centered around genetic mutations – The Gate comes across as a debriefing after a thorough investigation into the recent deaths of several people. I myself, like others who have reviewed this film in the past, recommend you stop at the 6:46 mark. That is the point in which this film turns into a PSA about reputable pharmaceuticals. I have nothing against movies portraying a message. A lot of the time the visuals of stories will spark people to action and inspire some to greater causes. Unfortunately this was not done gracefully and came across like a bad television commercial.
Despite this huge negative, with some nifty special effects and an interesting premise, The Gate has potential. You can watch The Gate after the jump!
Fun With Short Films – The Device
I will keep this review brief, because frankly, this is a brief film. Clocking in at 3 minutes and 40 seconds The Device takes the term short film very literally. While not burdened with a costly production budget or bloated special effects, The Device accurately portrays who the main character is through his quick choices and dorky persona. The only dialogue he utters is 'Yes!' upon understanding the true power he possesses, which is pretty awesome. The device itself in The Device provides powers an abilities akin to something you would see in the Portal video game series. As Uncle Ben famously quoted, "With great power comes great responsibility". Somebody tell our protagonist about that alright?
I hope I kept the above summary vague enough to peak your interests. If I did, you can watch The Device after the jump. Enjoy!
Fun With Short Films – Disarm
Disarm is a short film focusing around the recall of prosthetic limbs by it's leading distributor after a new law is passed banning them. These limbs are not just prosthetic.. they are robotic! Which makes them super cool to modify, want a flamethrower in your arm, you've got it! I already have thoughts of branding the 'Swiss Arm-y' Arm, see what I did there? Well with people doing these modifications Disarm focuses on a company representative working with a police office to make all of the necessary recalls by going door to door. A little hostile don't you think?
The quality of the filmography is great. The shots are well framed and executed with great color and balance to every scene. With any short film not developed by a big studio, this is a feat worth noting. In the opening scenes it is presented almost like an episode of The Office as the corporate suit talks about the recall to us, the average viewer. This point of view quickly shifts as you begin to understand that this situation is not as black and white as the corporation makes it seem.
Disarm is a fun ride and perhaps a glimpse into the type of technology we could see in the future. Filmmaker Andrew Kelleher provides us a glimpse into a world of social commentary, action, and super hero like abilities in a little over 11 minutes. Check out Disarm after the jump!

Mommy, mommy, mommy, mommy, mommy ... Yes baby - I am annoyed but try not to show it, I have been on the computer a bit too long today. I hear her answer back in a muffled voice, " twckl" What?? I look over to see her standing next to me, shirt pulled up over her face, belly button exposed. She lowers her shirt just enough that I can see her smiling face, and blue eyes twinkling she says again, Tickle? How can I resist. I step away from the adult world that is email and blogging and join in the fun of two kids who just want to tickle and play. |

The extreme shampoo is very versatile. I have straight slightly oily hair that I heat style. It always leaves my hair soft, shiny and healthy but without oil problems. My daughter has wavy chlorine damaged hair and she uses this shampoo in rotation with a clarifying shampoo and it has done wonders in repairing her hair. The price usually runs 30.00 for the large bottle. When I find it on sale I stock up!
Best Uses
This is a good every day shampoo. It has a nice scent and rinses well.
It made my hair feel natural, full and healthy!
Best Uses
I have hair down to my waist so I am very picky about my hair care products. Many shampoos leave my hair dry and tangled even after using the conditioner. I am a new user to the Redken Extreme line and I have been very pleased so far. My hair is clean but not stripped. It feels soft and nourished. The only negative is the price. It has a substantial price tag.
My hair is dry and brittle from coloring it and this is the best product I've found that can bring it back to healthy. It's wonderful and worth the money.
Best Uses
Strengthens my hair and makes it super soft at the same time! It's a little pricey, but catch a sale and it is totally worth it. You only need a little bit too since it lathers well :)
Great shampoo especially for damaged hair.
Best Uses
Great product!
Best Uses
I've been trying various products for my color-treated hair. This one seems to keep my hair soft and manageable even during this dry winter season.
Best Uses
I have thin b a bygone hair...which...now that I am 44 is also no longer greasy. This shampoo is perfect for my hair...does not weigh it down...is gentle so it doesn't strip the color, and rinsed clean. My only gripe is, on a busy weekend the store I got this in was having a liter sale....and the liters were going for the same price as the little bottles...but they made it very difficult to find these liters...So I, along with a lot of other freshly checked out customers were more than a bit miffed when we saw the liters by the exit door :( I wasn't' t about to stand in line for another 10 minutes in an extremely warm store

A school is shut down after it is overrun with venomous spiders. The false widow spider made a home for themselves in the Dean Academy in the U.K. and because they are a venomous spider, the school was shut down for exterminators to come in and rid the place of the pests, according to Euronews on Oct. 23.
The Dean of the academy in Gloucestershire made the decision to get the kids out of the school for just a day and when they return tomorrow, everything should be safe and sound and spider-less. A bite from a false black widow is extremely rare and no one has ever died in the U.K. from a spider bite. The Natural History Museum claims:
"There are 640 species of spider in the U.K. Only 12 of these have been known to bite humans in the U.K."
According to the Natural History Museum's Insect Information Service:
"The severity of symptoms from any spider bite depends on the amount of venom that is injected. False widow spider bite reports include symptoms such as chest pains, swelling and tingling of fingers."
The several years of mild winters in the UK has offered a breeding scenario for the spiders as the creatures are seen at an increased rate, which is especially true along the south coast of England.
While the spiders might not bite people, just being in a building that harbors the creatures could cause a lot of anxiety for folks, especially those with a fear of the eight-legged creatures.

Megalithic Symphony Deluxe EditionAwolnation

After releasing 'Slave To The Machine', Birmingham Alabama hard rock band Lynam parted ways with the DRT record label. That label gained some success for an independent label, but it was time to move on. After gaining a coveted support slot on the Cinderella, Warrant, Lynch Mob summer tour proceedings took a turn for the worst when the tour was cancelled when Cinderella's vocalist Tom Kiefer-who incidentally plays slide guitar on 'Enemy'- suffered a haemorrhaged vocal chord. With the release of 'Tragic City Symphony' planned to coincide with the tour suddenly the future looked less bright. Lynam however haven't rested on their laurels and instead have embarked on their own headline tour to compensate. 'Slave To The Machine' successfully combined old school eighties hard rock with a modern twist. However it leant more towards the Bon Jovi, Def Leppard, and AC/DC genre than its previous more power pop-orientated predecessor 'Life In Reverse' 'Tragic City Symphony' combines elements from both. Jacob Lynam remains a song-writing genius, seemingly able to pull great hook-lines out of the air at will. 'Is This A Heartbreak Or A Loaded Gun' is the perfect blend of 80's hair rock meets upbeat power pop with its gang vocals, Bon Jovi voice box and layered harmonies. The chorus comes straight off the debut Firehouse album. 'Enemy' featuring gang vocals from the boys from Hinder keeps the good time feeling going and the highlights come thick and fast with the spine tingling power ballad 'Just Say Anything', the slow burning 'Save My Soul' (the first single) and the typical Jacob Lynam sleazy power pop composition 'Porn Star'. The song 'White Trash Superstar' gains a welcome release after strangely being omitted from Lynam's debut of the same name, whilst the ballad 'A Million Ways'-produced by Beau Hill -and 'Suffer' are perhaps the most Mars Electric sounding songs on the album. As seems to be the trend at the moment, it's ok to be retro. Black Stone Cherry is doing it from an updated 70's southern rock angle whilst Lynam have completely modernised the 80's rock genre. Lynam have massive crossover appeal and it is this that should ultimately ensure popularity across the whole of the record-buying spectrum. Great songs, and a sound that is becoming more relevant as the 80's rock re-invention continues, Lynam have what it takes to be as popular as the bands that they have been influenced by.

Both Wall Street and Washington, poring though the Volcker rule's almost 1,000 pages of legal- speak on terms like market-making and portfolio hedging, can find reasons to claim victory.
Big banks' disproportionate reliance on U.S. aid after the credit crisis reinforces the need for additional steps to ensure the end of too big to fail, Senators Sherrod Brown and David Vitter said.
Breaking up the largest U.S. banks would push businesses such as Caterpillar Inc. and Boeing Co. to use Chinese lenders instead, said Frank Keating, chief executive officer of the American Bankers Association.
One of the largest bank lobbying groups in Washington has named the Republican former governor of Oklahoma to lead its campaign to shape the implementation of the Dodd-Frank Act.
Gary Gensler spent much of the past month fending off Wall Street's campaign to slow the move to electronic swaps trading. So when the platforms went live last week, the top U.S. derivatives regulator wasn't going to let a government shutdown stop him from monitoring its progress.
Schadenfreude is misplaced when considering the wreckage of a financial firm in today's weak economy. Yet empathy for the employees of MF Global Holdings Ltd. and the investors who owned its shares also is compatible with gratitude that no government agency came to the rescue.
Sanford "Sandy" Weill's call this week for breaking up large banks revived debate in Washington over "too-big-to-fail" lenders, prompting renewed assertions by industry groups that size yields economic benefits.
Chesapeake Energy Corp.'s decision to cut directors' pay and other perks may save the company up to $1.65 million a year without addressing investors' concern that the board failed to rein in Chief Executive Officer Aubrey McClendon's borrowing and spending spree.
The biggest U.S. banks, after years of building equity, may continue hoarding profits instead of boosting dividends as they face stricter capital rules than foreign competitors.
A bipartisan group of senators has proposed replacing U.S.-owned mortgage financiers Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac with a newly created government reinsurer.
"It's important to recognize that much has changed since the crisis."

Tim Hardaway JR Makes US U-19 B-Ball Team
Ann Arbor.com reporting:
THJ made the team. Pretty solid work right there. The team leaves for Europe on Friday. Other B10 teams had players trying out too. Here's the update:
Michigan sophomore-to-be Tim Hardaway Jr. made the roster for the 2011 USA U19 World Championship team, USA Basketball announced today. . . . Michigan State's Keith Appling and Illinois' Meyers Leonard are currently part of the 13-member roster. Iowa's Melsahn Basabe was among the cuts. The team will cut one more player before leaving for Europe. CBSSports.com's Jeff Goodman is reporting that the last roster spot will go to Appling or Villanova's James Bell.
OT Pistons/NBA Updates 6/19
- The NBA draft is on this upcoming Thursday night. The green room invitations were announced, i.e. the players the NBA are reasonably certain will be picked in the lottery will be present to when their names are called. Here are the names:
PG Kyrie Irving (Duke); F Derrick Williams (Arizona); C Enes Kanter (Turkey); PG Brandon Knight(Kentucky); PG Kemba Walker (UConn); C Jonas Valanciunas (Lithuania); F Jan Vesely (Czech Republic); SF Kawhi Leonard (San Diego St.); SF Chris Singleton (Florida St.); SG Klay Thompson(Washington St.); PF Tristan Thompson (Texas); GJimmer Fredette (BYU); PF Marcus Morris (Kansas); G Alec Burks (Colorado); PF Markieff Morris of Kansas.
- What this means for the Pistons: It looks like one of the Morris twins or Thompson will be our selection at #8, as they have had positive workouts with the Pistons and are green room invitees. Bismack Biyombo has long been my favorite for the pick, as he is an adept rebounder and shot blocker, two statistics the Pistons finished in *last* place last season. He would automatically be second on the depth chart, at backup C (Ben Wallace is on his last legs), whereas a PF would have to beat out Jonas Jerebko (soon to be extended, or at least tendered a qualifying offer; starter two seasons ago when healthy), Charlie Villanueva (making starter's money at 7.54 million), and Jason Maxiell (5 million a year). Alas, Biyombo is probably not Joe's pick, and I am frustrated to no end.
- Dwayne Casey was considered a frontrunner to fill the Pistons head coaching vacancy, but word is that now he's very close to taking the Toronto Raptors head coaching position.
- What this means for the Pistons: Lawrence Frank is now the favorite to coach the Pistons, and I would be on board with that decision. He set an American professional sports record by winning his first 13 games when taking over for the New Jersey Nets. He's a little man, literally (5'8"), with no competitive playing experience to his name, and would need fill his staff with some tough assistants. This is the perfect scenario for Bill Laimbeer to return to the Pistons, as Frank's lead assistant.
- Pat Riley has sent out a message to the rest of the league, in that he is not breaking up the Big Three. This team is two Mid-Level Exception players away from becoming a dynasty. Bleh....Golden State and Orlando have denied that the DraftExpress reported offer of Monta Ellis/Ekpe Udoh/Andris Biedrins (former Wolverine transfer) ever took place, but I doubt it. Can't blame GSW for trying, and short of offering David Lee, that's the best package they could come up with. At the deadline next season that deal would be far more enticing to the Magic, especially if picks were involved...
- What this means for the Pistons: Nothing. We aren't a free agent hot spot. We'll have to draft our big three.
- Last of all, and most importantly, the NBA's Collective Bargaining Agreement expires on the 30th of this month. In the end, all that matters to most fans is that no games are missed, but there has already been a casualty for avid followers in that the Las Vegas Summer League has been cancelled. This has historically been an opportunity to get a good first look at rookies, and some vets even play in the summer to support their new teammates (Kevin Durant, Ron Artest, and more).
- What this means for the Pistons: Well, with a new coach, we need every game we can get to prepare. We're likely losing Tayshaun Prince and Tracy McGrady to free agency, two vets that were key rotation pieces last season, adding a #8 overall draft pick, and returning a healthy Jonas Jerebko. There's been a lot of turnover for the Pistons, and if the preseason loses any games (there are 8), I'll be unhappy.
Windy City Hoosier Interview with Nick Stauskas
Windy City Hoosier Source has a two part interview (part 1; part 2) with 2012 Michigan basketball commit Nick Stauskas.
There isn't anything particularly earth-shattering in the interview, but he does claim to be 6-foot-6 and 200 pounds, as opposed to the 6-foot-5 and 185 that was reported at the time of his commit.
I also found the following Q&A interesting not only for the confidence that Stauskas reveals but also for his mention that "politics" keeps him from being ranked higher:
WCS: Although rankings are just numbers, many outlets have you classified right inside the top 100 in the country. You've talked about your shooting and ability to get to the hoop. What parts of your game do you feel you need to improve on over the next year to move up that list, or in other words, what's keeping you from going from a top 100 player to a top 25 player?NS: To be honest with you, the biggest thing that is keeping me out of the top 25 at this point is politics. My game still needs a lot of work, especially physically with my speed and strength, but at this point I believe I have proven to a lot of people that I am more than capable of going at and competing with other top 25 players.
Also of note are his plans for this summer and beyond:
NS: My knee injury has limited my plans for the summer. I wasn't able to play this spring, and that lead to me not being able to go to certain camps such as Pangos All American and NBA Top 100. In July, I still plan to be in Minnesota for the Best Buy Classic, Vegas for the Fab 48, and Phoenix for the Dual in the Desert. I might have a few other tournaments that I will be attending, but I'll have to talk to my coach first. One of my goals since I was young was to play in the McDonald's All American game at the end of my senior year. I know I have a very long way to go to be able to play in that, but it's still something I dream about. Other than that my goals have basically been to come to Michigan my freshman year as prepared as I can be to play college basketball. I'm working hard so that I leave the coaches at Michigan with no excuses to not play me. And obviously, I'm still working at achieving my biggest goal of one day playing in the NBA. It's a long way away, but at this point I just have to keep working hard and taking it one step at a time.
Stauskas doesn't mention this event (perhaps he's sitting it out because of his injury), but he was selected to play in the 2011 All Canada Classic, which is being held on June 21 at the Air Canada Centre in Toronto. Among the others selected for the rosters is Stefan Jankovic, the 6-foot-10 big man being recruited by Michigan for the 2012 class. (Other invitees include a couple of former U-M recruits: Kevin Pangos and Sim Bhullar).
Evidently, Jankovic will be attending, but some of the other invitees will not, according to this preview:
Myck Kabongo, Khem Birch and Kyle Wiltjer will not be competing, as they have been invited to both the Jordan Classic and the McDonald's All-American Game, so they are likely to compete in those two as their designated two all-star games.
Anyone know if the two designated all-star games is just a Canadian thing? I haven't heard of this before.
UM BBall - 2011-12 Big 10 sched: Play Iowa/Neb/Wis/Minn only once
Tough draw - Got a break playing Wisco only once, and at home. But not getting Iowa and Nebraska at home is not good - probably the #9 and #10 teams in the league.
OT - Kentucky Recalculates Calipari Win Total
Kentucky already honored JC for getting 500 wins but has now backed up on it with pressure from the NCAA. This situation reminds me of OJ Mayo, in that I know it is just a matter of time before the dirt sees the light.
Chad Ford has Darius Morris....
....in his 5th tier of prospects and estimates that he will go between picks 21 and 35. This is an insider article where Chad Ford of ESPN ranks the NBA draft prospects into tiers based on their long term potential. This year he has zero players in Tier 1 (reserved for franchise players like Blake Griffen or Jon Wall).
Here's what he says about Tier 5:
Note: These players look like locks for the first round but most likely won't make the lottery. A few teams had Brooks, Harris, Markieff Morris and Vucevic in Tier 4 but not quite enough for them to make the cut; they were very close, though. Bertans, Honeycutt, Jackson, Mirotic and Darius Morris were borderline picks here. Every one of these players dropped out of the top 30 on at least one NBA team's draft board.
I still wish Morris had stayed another year given the likelihood of a lockout since he could have moved himself into a lottery pick next year. But at least he seems like he'll get the guaranteed first round spot he was hoping for and I wish him the best.
(edit - fixed some clunky wording)

Re: Defender Spring Sale...not
The main thing that I wanted (Raymarine SPX5 auto pilot) was still $100 cheaper than it's normal price on Defender, which was already cheaper than any other source.
Most things otherwise seemed to be about 10% cheaper, which is more or less what I remember from last year. The big ticket item that I bought last year was a Zodiac Zoom 230, and that is much more expensive this year ($479 vs $679).

The surgery will likely limit Kemp's off-season training regimen although he is expected to be ready for spring training, the newspaper reported.
The outfielder was limited to just 73 games this season and missed all of the Dodgers' post-season run, which took them to the National League Championship Series where they lost to St. Louis in six games.
Kemp injured the ankle during a July 21 game against Washington on an awkward slide at the plate.
