Do you like your bartenders hot and sexy? Do you like it when they get up close and personal with some of their patrons? Then you'll love Bar None!
Kiernan Kelly goes into outer space for Kind of a D.R.A.G., the story of bartender Max and a robot who's more than your standard nuts and bolts. On the other hand, Julia Talbot's men stay firmly planted on earth, and in nature, as werebear Seamus deals with grumpy bar owner and werewolf Hugh and a dangerous animal poacher in The Blue Moon Bar.
BA Tortuga revisits Shane and Galen from the Stormy Weather series in Bartender Rescue. This time Shane's the one working too hard and Galen has to remind his bartender how to have fun before they forget how to be a couple. In Flair, Sean Michael goes to the Hammer club where flair expert Nathan is hired by Xavier to teach the staff some bartending tricks, but it's Dom Jarrod who winds up showing Nathan a few tricks of his own.
Don't miss out on these four sexy tales of bartenders and the men who love them.
From Kind of a D.R.A.G. by Kiernan Kelly
Chapter One "Is it supposed to smell like burning feces?" Ivanna Hump held her nose with two fingers as she peered at the machine, blinking her sparkly purple eyelashes. They were part of her trademark look, curving up over her brow until they tickled her forehead. The large box was shimmying and shaking more than she did onstage when she lip-synced to Gloria Estefan's Congo during her homage to late twentieth century entertainers. Leaning against it, she felt as if she was practically dry humping the fucking thing. She tapped the gray metal with one long, red-lacquered fingernail. "Maybe you pushed the wrong button." Betty Boob shook her head, her sleek, multi-colored, fiber optic bob swishing. "I know what I'm doing. I've seen the Boss do it a thousand times." She pointed to a funnel on the top of the machine, then to a slot, and finally, to a door on the side. "You pour the gooey stuff in here, the circuitry board goes in there, and slide the block of plasti-skin in here. Then you turn these dials, and press the green button. Snap! You're done." "Huh. Seems like there should be more to it than that, don't you think? I'm a little worried. If you made a mistake, we'll be in trouble. Maybe we should unplug it and forget the whole thing." "It's too late for that. Stop the process now and you'll end up with a machine gunked up with half-baked plasti-skin. Besides, what's the matter with you? Did you forget your big girl panties at home? Stop being such a dick. It'll be fine." Unlike the rest of them, who were programmed to be ever polite and solicitous, Betty's encoding allowed her to be snippy when challenged. Part of her job as the club's Mistress of Ceremonies at Club Grinder was to deal with hecklers and nuisances. Ivanna didn't take it personally. They weren't supposed to be in the Boss' workshop, or fiddling with the D.R.A.G. machine. The Dynamic Remodeling Android Generator was an obscenely expensive piece of equipment, the only one on-planet and quite possibly in-galaxy, and the Boss would shit kittens if he knew two of his droid Drag Queens were tinkering with it without his permission. They had no choice, though. It was the first night of the Boss' weeklong vacation off-planet --the very first time he'd left the club with only Max the downstairs bartender and the Queens in charge of the club, mind you -- and already they'd managed to break one of the club's best strippers. They had no one who could fill his spot, either. Without the stripper, the schedule would fall apart. They needed to replace him before the club opened that night, or suffer the consequences when the Boss returned. Betty continued. "Besides, it's your fault we're in this mess." "It was an accident! I thought it was a twist-off." "And what did we learn?" "Dicks don't twist off?" "Right."
From The Blue Moon Bar by Julia Talbot
The Blue Moon bar was rockin', especially for six in the evening, the cover band slamming out "Bad Moon Rising", the Coors tap running freely. The week leading up to the fully waxed moon always felt crazy, but Seamus Deane decided not to complain. He made about fifty percent of his tips in that one week during the month. Were-folk opened their senses to risk and their wallets to generosity during the changing.
"Seamus, I need you to get that fucking keg out here!"
Stilling, Seamus closed his eyes for a five count, trying to breathe deep and not hop the counter to murder his boss. Seamus didn't know what had crawled up Hugh Dailin's ass and died, but damn... The guy was always riding Seamus like a prize pony, but tonight felt doubly bad.
"Are we expecting a huge influx of Bass drinkers?" Seamus snapped. "We can go a week without pulling a single one of those."
"We have gone a week. I want it changed out."
Seamus glared at Hugh over the bar top. "You sick or broken or something?"
"I pay you to fucking do it." Hugh's lips curled in a snarl.
"Chris isn't here yet. I'll get it when he can watch the bar." He wasn't about to ask Hugh to tend bar while he struggled with a keg in the storeroom.
"I'll keep an eye out," Hugh said, coming around the pass-through. "I need coffee anyway."
Seamus turned his back, fighting not to roll his eyes. "Sure thing, Boss." He headed for the storeroom, putting his feet down hard. God knew he loved the Blue Moon, but he and Hugh constantly butted heads. The man was an amazing businessman, and knew how to run a bar, even with the difficult patrons they had. Seamus respected that. They just rubbed each other the wrong way.
Maybe the friction came from Hugh being a wolf. He wanted everyone to react like a lowly pack member.
Seamus knew better. Bears like him weren't so interested in pack behavior. For a bear, Seamus knew he was damned social, being a bartender. On his own time, he pretty much spent his days alone.
His shoulders rolled and he fought the urge to put a fist through a wall. Preferably a wall with Hugh on the other side so that a big chunk fell off and crashed right on top of the snarly fucker's head. Oh, that idea made him grin, and he was still smiling when he rolled the keg of Bass out to the kegroom and shoved it into place.
The dance floor was already packed, the bar lined up and he got to work. Bloody Mary, hair of the dog, sex on the beach. Vodka, tequila, beer. He worked mechanically, watching everything. Security wasn't on his list of job duties, but his sheer size meant he could keep people in line.
The pheromones started getting thick to the left of the bar, two wolves tag-teaming a pretty little female who was all over it. He nodded at Jess, the big wolf catching his eye and heading over.
The situation probably wasn't dangerous, but it had to be stopped before it got out of hand. This place was a powder keg tonight. Everyone looked itchy, like their skin didn't fucking fit.
"Goddamn it, Seamus, can't you get Chris in here on time?"
He turned his head slowly, staring at Hugh. "I am not his boss." He was about ten seconds away from pointing out, clearly, who Chris' boss was. And where to shove it.
Just as he opened his mouth, though, someone whacked Hugh over the head with a barstool. Bang.
Well, goddamn.

I am committed to cross-disciplinary work, believing that disciplines such as history, literature, and theater are not discrete units, but fields that inform one another and work together to both produce and reproduce culture, a passion I believe helps me design courses and learning opportunities that realize the University's mission "to prepare our students to lead purposeful and fulfilling lives in a global society by providing the highest-quality education through experiential, collaborative and discovery-based learning." This philosophy informs both my approach to teaching, in courses such as Dramaturgy, and my scholarship, in essays such as "Metatheatrical Labor in Rude Mechanicals' The Method Gun," which I presented at the American Society for theater Research's annual conference in 2011. I am particularly invested in helping students engage in the learning process and hope that they can develop personal strategies that allow them to recognize the value of writing as a way to make critical thinking an active, physical process and enable them to develop the skills and the confidence to enthusiastically, publicly articulate their points of view.

Thorlabs offers achromatic doublet kits containing either mounted or unmounted optics. The mounted kits (LSB08 Series) contain 14 of our most popular Ø1" achromatic doublets premounted in SM1-compatible lens cells. Unmounted achromatic doublets of varying diameters are included in the 50-piece kits (ESK50 Series).
The most typical application of achromatic doublet lenses is to reduce the chromatic aberration that is symptomatic of spherical lenses as well as to reduce other aberrations such as coma. Other applications of achromatic doublets include the diffraction limited focusing of laser beams and the focusing or imaging of white light within the design wavelength range.
These achromatic doublets are also available individually by visiting our Achromatic Doublet Navigation.
LSB08 Series of Mounted Achromatic LensesOur LSB08 kit comes with 14 of our most popular A- (400 - 700 nm), B- (650 - 1050 nm), or C- (1050 - 1620 nm) coated Ø1" achromatic doublets premounted in SM1-compatible (1.035"-40) lens cells. The mounted optics are housed in a metal box that has room for up to 35 doublets. See the LSB08 Series tab for detailed information on the included optics in each kit.
ESK50 Series of Unmounted Achromatic LensesThe ESK50 series kits include 50 of our most popular unmounted achromatic doublets housed in a storage case that makes it convenient to accommodate a growing collection of optics. Choose from versions with optics coated with a broadband AR coating for either 400 - 700 nm or 650 - 1050 nm. Detailed information on the included optics can be found under the ESK50-A or ESK50-B tab, respectively. The stackable steel cabinet that houses the unmounted achromatic doublets can be combined with other cabinets in our selection of storage cabinets. Alternatively, the storage cabinets can be integrated into our 19" Rack System.
*The LSB08 kits include 14 achromatic doublets individually mounted in a Ø1" SM1-threaded mount. Each kit comes with one (1) of each listed lens.
Positive Visible Achromats: Infinite Conjugate Ratio
Negative Visible Achromats: Infinite Conjugate Ratio
*The ESK50-A kit includes 50 unmounted achromatic doublets in a range of diameters. The kit comes with one (1) of each listed lens.

Thorlabs' Green Initiative is aimed at reducing waste. To that end, we have begun to re-engineer our product packaging. Products listed above are now shipped in re-engineered packaging that minimizes the use of non-recyclable materials.
Over the course of a year, the re-engineered packaging across our product line is projected to reduce our CO2 footprint by more than 16,184 kg and reduce packaging by over 13,893 pounds! As we move through our product line, we will label re-engineered packages with our green Smart Pack sticker (above).
Singlets are the most basic form of lens and are available in several types: plano convex, biconvex, plano concave, biconcave, meniscus, and aspheric. Singlets are the most cost-effective lens and perform well. For instance, our standard plano-convex lens will perform nearly as well as a best-form version when the convex side is facing the infinite conjugate.
Best Form lenses, however, are engineered to a higher standard than normal singlets, tending to have better surface quality and flatness than standard singlets. Unlike singlets, these lenses are fabricated using a different radius of curvature on each side of the lens. By doing so, spherical aberration, a common drawback of spherical lenses, can be corrected. Additionally, best form lenses are capable of producing smaller waist sizes than singlets as well as realizing diffraction-limited performance for small input beam diameters. While slightly more expensive than singlets, the spherical aberration correction and improved performance properties make them an alternative to singlets.
Compared to singlets or best form lenses, achromatic lenses are the most complex in that they are actually composed of two or more lenses (e.g., an Achromatic Doublet is comprised from 2 lenses and an achromatic Triplet is designed from 3 lenses). These lenses are either cemented together or have an air gap between them and typically include both positive and negative elements with different indices of refraction. Achromatic lenses are by far the superior lens choice, achieving a tighter focus that is often free of coma and spherical aberration and can also achieve near-diffraction-limited waist sizes. Additionally, achromats are less susceptible to "centration," meaning that off-lens-axis beams are focused to the same spot as those on axis (simply put, the lens cannot "steer" the beam). The largest benefit of achromatic lenses, however, is their ability to correct for chromatic aberration. Whereas with singlets and best form lenses the focal length is dependent upon wavelength, achromats provide nearly constant focal length across a wide range of wavelengths. Thus, the achromat is ideal for broadband imaging applications and beam shaping.
In general, there are no hard and fast rules as to when you should choose one lens over another. Function mimics necessity, and often times a singlet can serve just as well as a best form or achromat. For instance, with intensity measurements, such as fluorescence measurements, where one may be using a PMT or photodiode, spherical aberration is not a large concern so long as the beam can be focused onto the active area. In this case, the much more economical singlet is preferred. Even in simple systems in which one must correct for spherical aberration, a proper choice of biconvex lens or best fit lens will suffice (such as one-to-one imaging).
For measurements with much higher constraint, however, one may find that a singlet is not sufficient for the given application. Precise imaging and magnification measurements will need to correct for spherical aberration and coma effects. In this case, the achromatic or best form lens is the proper choice. In many single-frequency imaging techniques, a best form lens and appropriately sized beam will suffice. The best form lens will be able to handle high-power concerns and remove spherical aberration. Imaging systems with large magnifications can benefit significantly from the employment of a best form lens over the standard singlet. Additionally, in some cases, best form lenses offer an economical solution to air-gap achromatic lenses (discussed below).
Any broadband technique that utilizes a large wavelength range would benefit from the use of achromatic lenses. In applications where waist size is critical (such as in far off resonant trapping of neutral atoms), achromats are again the proper choice, as they can realize a tighter, near-diffraction-limited waist size. Additionally, the isolation from centration effects will ensure the waist size is in the proper position as the laser beam is moved. In general, achromatic lenses will outperform singlets and best form lenses. While in the past laser power has been a limitation to the use of achromatic lenses, the advent of air-gap achromatic lenses has alleviated that concern. Air-gap achromatic lenses are capable of handling the higher power light sources once reserved for best-form lenses. While significantly more expensive than their best-form counterparts, air-gap achromatic lenses will provide the highest performance, handle high-power applications, and correct for coma, spherical, and chromatic aberration.

(USA TODAY) -- Niacin, a B vitamin that has been a mainstay of heart treatment for years, provided no benefit in a major new study and may even cause harm.
Niacin is commonly used to try to lower "bad" LDL cholesterol and raise "good" HDL cholesterol.
In a study of 25,000 people taking cholesterol-lowering statin drugs, doctors randomly assigned people to get either a placebo or niacin plus another drug to reduce flushing, a common side effect of niacin.
The niacin combination had no benefit, with no reduction in the rate of heart problems such as heart attacks, stroke or death.
But patients given niacin had a higher risk of bleeding, infections, new-onset type 2 diabetes or diabetic complications, according to a study presented Saturday at a meeting of the American College of Cardiology in San Francisco.
Although doctors hoped niacin would prevent heart attacks and strokes, "we now know that its adverse side effects outweigh the benefits," says lead author Jane Armitage, a professor at England's University of Oxford, in a statement.
The study is the latest in a string of bad news for niacin.
A 2011 study found that it failed to reduce heart attacks, even though it boosted good cholesterol. Alarmingly, researchers found that users of niacin had a slightly higher risk of stroke, although this could have been a coincidence.
Niacin's poor performance in rigorously controlled trials is a disappointment, given that Americans spent $800 million a year on brand-name, extended-release niacin, says Robert Giugliano of Harvard Medical School in an editorial accompanying the 2011 study in The New England Journal of Medicine.
To A. Marc Gillinov, a heart surgeon at the Cleveland Clinic, the study is "another nail in the coffin for niacin."

Bongo Comics for April 2006, plus inside looks at this week's Simpsons Super Spectacular #2 and Futurama #23:
Amazon.co.uk are listing "The Big Bouncy Book Of Bart Simpson," as another new UK comic collection, released on 26th May 2006.
These are the stories included:
"Masked marauder Bartman and his sidekick Houseroy take on the Riddling Robber in "Legends of the Bartman Family"; Homer's early days of mis-spent youth are revisited in "The Special Kid"; double-agents and super-spies abound in "Secret Agent, Man"; Bart's Farm-Aterium reminds Homer of his own get-rich schemes in "The Great Springfield Donut War!"; Bart and Milhouse make the ultimate zombie movie in "Movie Mayhem"; and gross out to a disgusting Scoff-A-Thon in "Are You Gonna Eat That?""
Man, I love that issue, but my comic's missing it's cover now. Glad to see it coming in hardbackOriginally Posted by Simpsons Forever!
Thanks to CousinMerl for this great sig!
Does anyone know if they are making any new graphic novels soon? I think they stop in the 60s so far.

Because I'm obsessive.
Here's my opnions on #114:Originally Posted by Dr. Bartley
The phone story was okay. Fun to see some appearences by Kang and Kodos outside the THOH universe. As For the Maggie and Moe story, I loved thae artwork in rhis one and it was fun to se the return of some one-time appearing characters(Molloy, Dr. Collosus and Grandma van houten) but the story itself reminded of one of those awful spin-off attempts from one of the previous issues.
There sure were a lot more advertisments than usual in this issue. And were the heck is Junk Mail?
I enjoyed this issue. Reminds me of the#78.
I've now got the Jam Packed Jamboree, and I think it's pretty good.
Sounds good. Cant wait to get it Friday.
hey hey love simpsons comics #113, and HEY thats my letter in the junk mail page!
sorry mr. morrison, you said earlier about how the the art in the Simpsons comics are always up to the standard, but I would like to disagree. There is one artist that I am not very fond of, but with these images you should know who they are.
btw i'll take these pictures off if you would like me to.
i mean look at bart's eyes in the first picture...one of them is basically hanging off the side of his head, then the one of mr. burns...well in all this artist's issue (except for their first)...they havent drawn his teeth...and how is he meant to look evil like hes supposed to without teeth
I thought they stopped with Junk Mail, did they bring it back again?Originally Posted by ivan_simpsons
Last edited by Itchy; 03-12-2006 at 06:06 AM. Reason: Signature STILL not showing.
No its still gone. They got rid of junk mail in #114 i think.
Anyone know why?Originally Posted by The Undertaker
The only possible reason I can think of for them to get rid of Junk Mail is to make way for the stupid full page adverts which now seem to be cropping up throughout the stories. Up until January, adverts were designated to the end of stories or the inside covers but now they seem to be sandwiched in between the story.

BTW, does anyone else miss how Matt Groening was credited? Now it's just "Matt Groening presents" while in the earlier issues he was credited as something connected with the story.

The style isn't necessarily bad, it's just slightly different from the regular one we are use to seeing. I have to admit though I do prefer it when the comic does have the exact style that we are used to seeing (basically the one that is always used on the covers) because for whatever reason it just makes it funnier. But the artist is not a bad artist.
I just got #115 I enjoyed it. One of my favorite issues ive ever read
i dont think its much so that bart's eye is hanging out the side of his face, but it looks more like the artist didnt draw his "eyebrow" and the side of his head in the correct place.I don't see anything wrong with Bart's eyes. one of the eyes traditionally does hang from the side of the head in the Simpson's style, just look at Homers eyes in you avatar.

i think it's one of the best issues in a very long timeI just got #115 I enjoyed it. One of my favorite issues ive ever read
Also, did anyone else find it disturbing that Troy McClure was a main character in the story of #112. I mean, while he is a great character I did think it was disturbing that after seven years of retirement after Phil Hartman died...it was just...weird that Troy was back...and that he 'talked' in the comics.
I dont think it was weird. Hes always been present in the comics as a backround charecter and says one line once and a while. Even in the TV series he still present as a backround charecter but doesnt speak.
actually while he USED to be a background character both he and Lionel Hutz have not been seen for the last few seasons because they have officially been retired. In fact, the last comic book that had Troy in it before this one (mistake me if i'm wrong), was #36 "The Geek Shall Inherit The Earth" from way back in 1998.
I think they just used Troy because he is the only charecter that can put together a spinoff show comic book
that would make sense, i suppose it would be strange if they used kent brockman or someone instead (you wouldnt be able to use kent anyway because he's in the simpsons family smile-time bit)
i dont have to get next month's issue (#113) because i got the US version about two months ago (great issue btw)

One important platform for delivering security assistance would be the U.S. Africa Command. Ten years ago, Clinton said, people had wondered why the United States needed a new military command. Now there should be more attention on how and where it was resourced.
"We don't have assets of any significance right now on the African continent. We're only building that up," Clinton said.

Museum of the Cherokee Indian Jerry Wolfe was named "Beloved Man" by unanimous vote of Tribal Council on April 11, 2013. He is the first Cherokee man to carry this title since 1801. The resolution was brought to council by Bo Taylor, former Archivist at the Museum of the Cherokee Indian who said, "Jerry embodies everything a beloved man should embody. He's a veteran, a warrior. Being a veteran carries a lot of weight in our culture. He's a man who gets out and does – and he does for others. He's selfless." Taylor also mentioned his work on mission trips in foreign countries, and his helpfulness to all. In the 1700s, Cherokee Beloved Men and Beloved Women were part of the councils and ceremonies in almost every Cherokee town. They were warriors in their younger days, who as elders were recognized for their honesty, integrity, good advice, and service to the people. They traveled to every treaty meeting and trade agreement throughout the Southeast, to the colonial capitols and England. Jerry Wolfe received the North Carolina Folk Heritage Award in 2003, for his work in preserving Cherokee traditions of language, stickball, storytelling, and more. He contributed to the Cherokee Heritage Trails Guidebook, which received the Preserve America Presidential Award in 2004. Presently he works at the Museum of the Cherokee Indian as Outreach staff, at the front desk Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. https://www.facebook.com/MuseumoftheCherokeeIndian See WLOS TV Person of the Week story about Jerry: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UXJROK6u0Qo |

I have thousands of books and will be aquiring many more when my father moves and he gives me his huge library.
The only way that I can think of to handle all of these books is with something akin to compact shelving such as shown on these pages:
http://www.librisdesign.org/docs/ShelvingforLibraries.pdf - go to page 22
I am not planning to make a crank or moterized version, just one where I can slide the bookcases sideways to open up an isle to get at a particular unit.
Given the weight of such a system when loaded with books, I don't plan to support it from the ceiling. It will be supported by the floor - it will be on the first floor and I plan to reinforce the floor from the basement.
What I have in mind are bookcases with rollers/wheels on the bottom in tracks and then tracks at the ceiling to stabilize the units but not take any of the weight.
Given the weight issues, I think that this would be a combination wood and metal project.
While I have not yet learned to weld, I have a neigbhor who has voluntaried to teach me - he is a retired machinest.
Detailed plans would be great but I doubt any exist. Any and all suggestions, comments, tips, etc. will be greatly appreciated.

Determined to leave the hustle and bustle of the city behind, the adventuresome girls arrive at a secluded camp, and board a houseboat for a lazy ride down a scenic river. When they find themselves suddenly stranded, a peculiar couple offers some much needed help. But their rescuers' kind offer masks malevolent intentions, and with no one to hear their screams for miles around, the girls are soon being hunted through the woods by a ruthless killer who won't stop until they're all dead. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Solving Problems: Kevin Durant Needs A Backup
There are just a handful of NBA teams that can legitimately claim their present roster is in very good shape going into the 2011-12 season. The Oklahoma City Thunder sits firmly on that short list. Of course, tweaks and possible upgrades are never far from the mind of any team's general manager.
In the case of this particular team, Sam Presti (Thunder's executive vice president and general manager) has continually demonstrated no hesitance in pulling surprise trades and free agent signings in efforts to push the team to the next level. And these surprise, even risky at times, moves are not limited to trade and free agent acquisitions; some of his draft picks were risky as well. For instance, picking another guard, Reggie Jackson, in June's NBA draft left many scratching their heads.
While the Thunder's postseason run improbably led to an appearance in the Western Conference Finals last season, specific holes were revealed that Presti will look to fill.
Primary Weakness
The obvious, and foremost, weakness is the inexperience of this team. Lack of experience is not the only weakness, but it's clearly an issue. The 4-1 elimination by the Mavericks in the WCF acutely demonstrated that fact. Late-game execution and adjustments, rather the lack thereof, killed their chances to move on.
Last year's 55-27 record indicates the Thunder's baptism-by-fire approach is working well; however, it's going to take more to get them to the Finals this season. Expect continued on-court growth as the young players mature; however, there are certain moves to consider that may aid now.
Nine of the ten rotation players are locked in, contract-wise, for next season. In total, the Thunder owes approximately $53.6M in 2011-12 salary. We would be remiss by not mentioning the fact that, without a labor deal, the wiggle room factor is undetermined. Last season the salary cap was $58M; of course, that figure is unknown for the upcoming season.
One thing is certain, Presti will retain ample funds for future re-signings of the core group (Russell Westbrook, Serge Ibaka, James Harden) and perhaps others.
Russell Westbrook Isn't Going Anywhere
Let's get that out of the way first. Had the lockout not transpired, Presti would have appeared at Westbrook's doorstep on July 1st presenting him with a lucrative long-term contract extension. And he surely would have signed.
There's been no shortage of pundit's trade scenarios involving Westbrook following the mass criticism hurled his way during and after the postseason. Yes, he turns the ball over too much, tends to shoot first over passing and can't always keep the offense moving. These things can be addressed as he matures in his position of floor general.
The Thunder is not focused on getting rid of their second-best scorer who, at age 22, has an undefined ceiling. He hasn't missed a single game in his three-year NBA career. He averaged 21.9 points, 8.2 assists, 1.9 steals and 4.6 rebounds last season and was league-ranked eighth in Player Efficiency.
Free Agency Options
Oklahoma City filled a huge deficiency last February when Kendrick Perkins and Nazr Mohammed (the latter signed a one-year contract extension on June 29th) were acquired to shore up the low post. This allowed Serge Ibaka and James Harden to blossom. Harden played exceptionally well on both ends of the floor during the playoffs; this sparked speculation that his reserve role days are over.
When the Thunder shipped Jeff Green to the Boston Celtics, they lost a legitimate small forward to back up Durant (who ranked seventh in the league in total minutes played last season). Daequan Cook played limited minutes at the three position, but he hardly qualifies as the solution here. Plus his status as a restricted free agent (with a qualifying offer of $3.1M) means he may or may not return. Make no mistake, there's no doubt that Cook's three-point's expertise was a welcomed addition.
A solid answer to the backup three is unrestricted free agent Shane Battier. At 33 years of age and ten years' NBA experience under his belt, he could be that missing piece. With Battier in a Thunder uniform, it really presents a win-win situation for both sides.
For Battier, he gets a chance to finish out his career with a contending team. He played the least number of minutes in his career (24.2 mpg) during his 23 games in Memphis Grizzlies last year. Battier's not the type to get riled up over lost minutes, but Rudy Gay's return will affect his playing time should he re-sign with Memphis.
For the Thunder, Battier is affordable – maybe in the $8M-$9M range for two years – which is an ideal free agent salary number for the Thunder. He's a veteran leader with playoff experience who can ably mentor this team. Like OKC's Thabo Sefolosha, Battier is a lockdown perimeter defender; unlike Sefolosha, Battier is also a solid offensive contributor with an ability to knock down the open threes.
At his core, Battier is a teacher. Think of what he can bring to every member of this young roster. To top it off, he's a Presti-kind-of-guy, i.e. a level-headed teammate who possesses strong character.
Other unrestricted free agent swingmen OKC may consider include Grant Hill, Caron Butler or Mike Dunleavy. However, Hill probably wants to live out his last year or two with Phoenix. Dallas will try like crazy to keep Butler, and Dunleavy's injury history is a concern.
Another intriguing possibility is Tayshaun Prince.
Interestingly, Prince has close to the same physical prototype as Durant. He's 6'9", 215 lbs with a 7'2" wingspan. At 31 years old, he's kept the same skinny-type frame for years – something critics hound Durant about – and remains a viable factor on both ends (14.1 ppg, 4.2 rpg, 2.8 apg last season in Detroit). Durant, now 22, is 6'10", 215 lbs with a 7'4.75" wingspan.
Prince is coming off a hefty multi-year contract with the Detroit Pistons; his final year paid him over $11M. Like Battier, the Thunder players would greatly benefit from Prince's experience and knowledge. But would he agree to come off the bench with less playing time and a whole lot less salary?
Strangely enough, murmurs on the possibility of restricted free agent Jeff Green returning to the fold in a bench role have been heard. That's not going to happen; the numbers don't work.
No Real Trade Options
Trade rumors have been plentiful over the summer, mostly involving a disruption of key members of the core. There's no reason to tear apart a young team that was one playoff round away from a Finals appearance.
At this point, expendable players appear to be Nate Robinson, Royal Ivey, Byron Mullens and Robert Vaden.
Robinson has another year left on his contract ($4.5M). It is likely Oklahoma City keeps him as a third PG option (while rookie Jackson develops, perhaps in the D-League) before focusing on a trade partner for his expiring contract. Ivey ($1.2M) and Vaden ($788,872) have non-guaranteed contracts.
It's hard to pinpoint the Thunder's plans for Byron Mullens. He's appeared in just 26 games over two years, yet they picked up his option ($1.3M) that goes through the 2012-13 season.
Cole Aldrich, also extended two more seasons, had difficulty in translating his game to the big stage, but the Thunder sees real potential. Mohammed may well have been re-signed for another year to work with second-year Cole Aldrich in addition to backing up Perkins.
Sefolosha's contributions fell nearly across the board last season, but his salary structure ($3.3M in 2011-12, $3.6M in 2012-13 and $3.9M in 2013-14) won't yield much in the way of return. As mentioned, Harden should take the starting reins over Sefolosha; we suspect that may push him into becoming that defensive threat again.
Presti has convinced the masses that his strategy is to build a team that can grow together and stay together. In other words, don't expect a blockbuster free agent signing or trade. The best course of action is to pick up a veteran wing player like Battier.

Not for MePros: Looks nice. Worked ok at first Cons: My fault for grabbing at the unit when it had an attractive price. Didn't read the listing thoroughly enough. My turn to be stupid. It has QOS with no configuration options that I could find. With QOS enabled on my router the switch didn't perform very well. Turned off QOS and it all came to life. Unfortunately, it lasted a few months, enough time so I couldn't return it to Newegg. Then the data rate on anything plugged into it dropped like a stone. I finally gave up and replaced it with something else. With everything else wired the same as the Netgear unit I started to get very respectable data transfer rates without any drama. Also no problems selecting which port to use with what. Other Thoughts: With these low priced items it can be dicey whether it pays to return them if they fail. In this case, given the price I paid, I will simply recycle the thing. Not a slap at Netgear. They might have simply replaced it. But shipping costs are too high these days. 3 out of 3 people found this review helpful. Did you? |

When will Samsung go 64-bit?
Samsung is going 64-bit too. But when?
Apple drew plenty of oohs and aahs this week when it revealed the first 64-bit chip for smartphones on Tuesday.
Samsung immediately chimed in, saying it is going to do the 64-bit thing too.
"Not in the shortest time. But yes, our next smartphones will have 64-bit processing functionality," Samsung's mobile business chief Shin Jong-kyun told the Korea Times on Wednesday.
The operative phrase is "not in the shortest time." That echoes a discussion I had earlier this month with ARM executives when they spoke about the Cortex … Read more

The route you choose to take will really depend on your finances, free time and of course the opportunities around you. I wouldn't bother trying to study turf in college. Most of the groundskeepers I've met have never set foot in a classroom, and I'm not just talking about old, grizzled vets. A lot of young guys work their way up from the grounds crew or from maintaining other fields.
There are a lot of guys who study to be groundkeepers and get good jobs, but I think most of them have to do their time just like everyone else once they get out of college. I really can't imagine anyone I know hiring someone to take care of their field on the basis of their degree in turf science. Almost every groundskeeper I know worked their way up from the grounds crew or they were well-known for taking care of some high school or municipal fields. The groundskeeper at our team spent a few years taking care of one high school field by himself on the weekends. He also made himself available to us in emergencies (field flooded, warning track got messed up, etc.). When our old groundskeeper decided to move on, he recommended this guy for the job and he's been fantastic. The guy we had before that worked his way up from the grounds crew (about 4 seasons I think) as did the guy before that. My experience has been that most groundskeepers in minor league baseball got their jobs through similar means.
I'm not saying that a college degree is worthless to a groundskeeper, it's not. I would imagine most of the guys coming out of those programs become great groundskeepers. However, a knowledgeable GM is interested in your college background primarily for your organizational and clerical skills. There is a lot of supply ordering, inventory tracking and sometimes bill paying involved in being a groundskeeper and a college degree shows a GM that you're not just some retard that knows how to cut the grass. But do you really need a four year degree in turf maintenance to demonstrate that? I'd say no. If you have an AA in English and have cared for a high school field for a couple of seasons, you're going to be a pretty strong candidate.
In baseball, most of the hiring for entry-level grounds crew takes place in January or February. Your job as a member of the grounds crew doesn't entail everything you need to know about being a groundskeeper, but it is a great opening to learn. A lot of these guys love talking about their jobs and have no problem showing you the ins-and-outs if you're willing to provide them with an extra set of hands every once-in-a-while. Just make yourself available.

Obama Admin Pushed for Indefinite Detention Provision
Amidst all of the controversy surrounding the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), the Obama administration attempted to paint itself as an oppositional force against the bill, threatening to veto it if it passed. Now, however, Senator Carl Levin (D-Mich., left), co-author of the bill, says that the administration in fact heavily lobbied to have removed from the bill's language that would have protected American citizens from some of the bill's provisions, such as indefinite detention without trial.
Iowa Poll: Ron Paul Only GOP Contender Who Can Beat Obama
Texas Congressman Ron Paul continues to enjoy significant success in Iowa polls. In fact, according to the latest NBC/Marist Iowa poll, Dr. Paul is currently the only candidate who can beat Obama. Meanwhile, another Iowa poll shows he has significant favorability among the other candidates.
Governor Walker Proposes Protest Fees
As the year 2011 has witnessed an inordinate number of protests, particularly in the state of Wisconsin, Governor Scott Walker of Wisconsin has proposed a number of steps to restrict certain displays of opposition in his state. Walker has indicated that he wants to introduce a fee to protestors who wish to demonstrate.
Senate Defeats Both Parties' Payroll Tax Cut Extension Bills
Thursday was a big day for the U.S. Senate, which stayed in session later than usual to attend to a few significant items, such as the controversial National Defense Authorization Act, which passed, and two competing payroll tax cut bills, both of which failed. The payroll tax cut bills marked a role reversal for the two parties, as it was the Democrats pushing for the cuts and the Republicans who stood in opposition to them, demanding that the cuts be paid for without raising taxes.
Cain Camp Sends Mixed Signals on Campaign's Future
GOP presidential contender Herman Cain has found himself contending with a variety of alleged scandals over the course of the last month, ranging from sexual harassment allegations to accusations of a long-term extramarital affair. The most recent allegation, which asserts that Cain had been involved in a 13-year affair with a woman from Atlanta, Georgia, led Cain to tell his senior staff on Tuesday morning that he was "reassessing" his campaign's livelihood. However, there are mixed signals from the Cain camp regarding the future of Cain's candidacy.
Herman Cain Accused of Extramarital Affair
Just when thee sexual-harassment allegations against GOP presidential candidate Herman Cain were beginning to recede from the news, an Atlanta, Georgia, woman has come forward to claim she was involved in a 13-year affair with Cain.
More Fed. Gov't Regulation: Bill Would Ban Airline Luggage Fees
The federal government continues its infringement upon private business rights by proposing legislation that mandates that airlines may no longer charge baggage fees to their passengers. Senator Mary Landrieu (D-La.) — who introduced the bill on Tuesday, just days before one of the busiest travel days of the year — described it as a way to spare passengers from having to pay "unfair fees."
Fact-checking Nevada's Republican Debate
Following Tuesday's Republican presidential debate, a number of different news sources scrambled to check the accuracy of several different statements made by the candidates. According to the Associated Press, some facts "took a bit of a beating" in the debate, ranging from assertions made regarding taxes to those involving Obama's unpopular healthcare overhaul.
Holder, Issa Spar Over "Fast and Furious"
The controversy surrounding the disastrous Operation Fast and Furious (part of Project Gunrunner) has prompted a congressional investigation which is quickly heating up as more facts emerge. The investigation has led Congress to question Attorney General Eric Holder as to how much he knew of the operation, and how long he was sitting on the knowledge that known Mexican drug cartel members were permitted by the officials of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (still known as ATF) to walk with weapons provided by the ATF. The inquiry has resulted in an exchange of scathing letters between Holder and the investigation head, House Oversight Committee Chairman Darrell Issa (R-Calif., left).
Ron Paul Tells National Press Club How Media Doesn't Cover His Campaign
It is no secret that the mainstream media has virtually ignored Congressman Ron Paul in its reporting of the progress of the GOP presidential campaigns — even as Paul's campaign has gained momentum and already enjoyed several triumphs. For instance, Paul has been extremely successful in straw polls conducted over the course of the last few months. He won the CPAC presidential straw poll (as he did last year), as well as the Republican Leadership Conference straw poll and the California Republican straw poll. In the Ames, Iowa straw poll, Paul came in a very close second, losing to Minnesota Rep. Michele Bachmann by just 152 votes.
