Everyone thinks Florida is a place where people go to retire. That image is about to change forever. A company named Magic Leap, located in Plantation, FL, just announced that its new mixed reality headset is ready for public consumption. The company promises that they have reinvented the way people will interact with computers and reality.
Magic Leap says it will take augmented reality to a whole new level. Wikipedia explains augmented reality as a “live direct or indirect view of a physical, real-world environment whose elements are ‘augmented’ by computer-generated real-world sensory input such as sound, video, and graphics.” Watch the above video or click on the link below to see augmented reality in action.
Magic Leap gained notoriety in the tech industry because it managed to raise over $1.9 billion from investors such as Google and Alibaba. This was particular remarkable considering very few people in the industry ever saw the product as it was being developed.
Southern Florida will never be the same. With a little effort, it will become the next Silicon Valley.
Here’s another chance to see Magic Leap in action.
If you don’t have a lot of time this holiday to decorate, this is an easy solution. Approximately $99.95.
If you want to get into the holiday spirit without the traditional tree, this is what is being featured on Instagram–your very own festive pineapple.
Once again, my girlfriend Barbara O’Connell, gave me some old photos to share.
One of the reasons why I don’t lose weight is because I constantly weigh myself. Some people weigh themselves once a week, I weigh myself a few times in a 24-hour period. If I lose a pound during the day, I eat more at dinner thinking I can afford the extra calories.
I know it makes no sense. I am probably better off not knowing my weight and worrying so much about it. At least I wouldn’t be eating all the time. A few days ago, I heard about a scale that doesn’t tell you how much you weigh. The scale, called Shapa, records your weight but doesn’t give you the number.
The philosophy behind no numbers is that this type of scale encourages you to lose weight. Instead of numbers, you get a color. Blue and green mean you’re losing weight, gray means you need to cut back your food intake.
Shapa works with an app. Every time you step on the scale, the app records your weight. The app also tells you when to step on the scale, and gives you goals. The artificial intelligence (AI) gives you smart tips, “Eat something green with every meal,” or “Eat dinner earlier.” AI customizes everything for you once the scale gets to know you better.
Let’s hope this scale works.
Shapa is about $100, with an $8.00 subscription plan.
Sorry, I refuse to take anyone who passed on off my email list. I just have to keep them on. If they stay on, then I feel they are not really gone. I also feel my email list keeps them important. Taking them off would be a betrayal. It’s one of the few places in the world where they will constantly be remembered.
Some of the deceased have been on my list for 20 plus years. Unfortunately, a few recently got added. This is the time of year where I see their names a lot because I am emailing Chanukah and Christmas cards. I have to be very careful not to send them a card. I worry each year that I accidentally did. I cringe that someone in their family will receive my card and think I am nuts. Anything is possible.
It takes me better than 10 hours to email out all the names I have marked. The beauty of email is that I can pick thousands of names. I usually do. It’s the time of year that I want to reach to everyone I ever had a conversation with. This year we came up with a unique card. It’s Eliot’s creation. The reviews so far have been positively wonderful.
Before we get started on today’s topic, I wanted to show PBS fans what a Viking ocean cruise liner looks like. Viking is a major sponsor of Masterpiece on PBS. Many of us have either seen Viking’s river cruise boats in their TV or print ads, or have taken a trip on one. Now I get to show you one of their bigger ships as it passed underneath my Miami condo window last night. I quickly grabbed my smartphone, and took a video for your viewing pleasure. Enjoy!
I couldn’t stop staring at a headline from NBC News the other day. It said, “What is headline stress disorder and do you have it?” I couldn’t believe those words. I was who that headline was talking about. I am obsessed with the news. I keep checking my iPhone several times an hour looking for the next astonishing situation that is happening in the United States.
It could be #metoo, North Korea, fires, Russia, fake news, Net Neutrality, Roy Moore, or ISIS. Should I go on? Nah, you get my drift. There is so much to keep up with. Most of my friends are addicted too, checking their smartphones around the clock for news alerts. The digital world has trained us to expect new news all the time.
NBC is worried that many of us are getting more and more out-of-control. The TV network claims we are creating a very upsetting environment for ourselves. Therefore, they have asked the therapists to help cure us.
This is their cure. I am willing to try a few, but not all. For deeper explanations, click here.
If you are an obsessed news junkies like me, make sure you read the entire NBC story.
It was bound to happen. People prefer to take Uber to the hospital, rather than an ambulance. A recent study by the University of Kansas and Scripps Mercy Hospital in San Diego found that ambulance usage in 766 cities around the United States is declining. The study claims there can only be one reason for that, Uber.
It makes total sense to me. If I needed to get to the hospital, I would immediately call Uber or Lyft. I am not talking about being unconscious or bleeding to death. If I wasn’t feeling well, I would rather call a ride sharing service where I could monitor the pickup time, as opposed to an ambulance that may not be in the vicinity. I want to get to the hospital in the most expeditious way.
The big bonus, in opting for the likes of an Uber or Lyft, is that you can choose exactly when you want to go to the hospital, and which hospital you want to go to. If you call an ambulance, you are at the mercy of the paramedics.
Again, this all makes perfect sense to me. However, we have to remember that Ubers and Lyfts do not come with medical professionals. That could be a matter of life and death.
Mashable covered this story as well.
The Carnival Vista arriving in the Port of Miami today in the early morning hours.
One of the many advantages of living in Miami is that you hear a lot about the cruise industry. You always meet someone who works for one of the cruise lines, or the “Miami Herald” has a news story about some development.
The other day there was a story in the Herald about the technological advancements in cruising. I wanted to write about it because so many DigiDame readers cruise all over the world. The changes that will be incorporated over the next five years will be astonishing.
One big attraction for guests is that new “smart” technology will help eliminate long lines and waiting time. This will be accomplished by facial recognition and geo-location. Carnival Corporation, Royal Caribbean Cruises, Norwegian Cruise Line Holdings and MSC Cruises are leading the way.
Other advances are using your smart phones for hotel keys, wearable, customized mini discs that will track your whereabouts for personalized service, interactive screens in staterooms, and RFID tags on luggage to track delivery times to cabins.
For more good news read the Miami Herald.
2. If you don’t read the newspaper you are uninformed. If you do read the newspaper you are misinformed.
Thank you Barbara O’Connell for these quotes. They make a great blog post. We were out late and I want to go to sleep. Good night.
When I saw these slides on Facebook, I knew I had to share them with you. Thank you, the Today Show, for recognizing these great, senior women.
A good friend, Gary Arlen, a Washington DC tech writer, took the time to add information about Net Neutrality. Thank you Gary. you are always the educator.
Thank you Alabama, thank you, thank you, thank you !!!!!
Now for the next issue…….
I’m not sure if you totally understand, but this Thursday the FCC may decide to repeal the Obama net neutrality protection.
It means that the Internet could get very difficult for you to use.
I am rather shocked that many of us have not spoken about this before. The Trump Administration doesn’t want the Internet to be equal for all of us. Net neutrality means that all content on the Internet is the same for everyone. The current administration may want to play favorites.
Obama made sure that Internet Service Providers (ISPs) couldn’t block or slow down content for any of us. Now all kinds of manipulations may take place.
Please google net neutrality to get more information about this situation. Give us your opinion.
You can write to your Senator or State Rep.

I enter in the email address and it says it is going to send me the new password, yet nothing is ever received. I had to create a new account but I would like to be able to access my old account. Is there an admin I can email about this?
Also, how do you download attachements, someone created an example for me to look at yet it denies me download.
Hi - I can reset the password on your old account for you - just email me via the forum and let me know what your user ID is.
Also, what do you mean that you are denied download? If you right click the link and select "save as", what happens?

By popular demand, Gael is back at Creartii for this wonderful opportunity to create a statement piece of clay art that is firmly grounded in nature, and inspired by Gael’s wonderful style. In the first week you will learn to create a slab pot, and press natural materials into the piece to decorate.
After the clay has dried to a leathery consistency for a week, you will use different oxides, and techniques, to create a beautifully coloured item. Last year’s work was fantastic!
This year, the workshop includes the cost of transporting and firing your items in Gael’s studio in Staffordshire.

We know that certain times of the year are better for turnover, finding replacement tenants and for getting the highest rental prices. We have timed all our leases to ensure you don’t get caught by surprise and can get top dollar for your investment/rental property.
You thought cleaning checks were just for students, didn’t you? For Vision, inspections don’t stop with students. We inspect ALL of our properties EVERY TWO MONTHS both the outside AND the inside. Sure, that means we spend at least twice the amount of time on each property than the average management company, but we think it’s worth it. We know your units and you can trust us to keep them secure and in good condition.
Our Field Services Team has found the best contractors and service providers for every maintenance need. We have negotiated discounted rates with these providers and pass that savings along to our clients WITHOUT a markup.
Remember, cash flow isn’t the only way to make money on investment property. The tax advantages are amazing! Though we aren’t accountants, we are trained regularly on the latest tax laws to help you get the best return on your property. For example, did you know that owners who manage their own properties can’t expense their time? However, they CAN expense ours. Property management services are tax deductible.

Summary: The book of Revelation is all about the Person of the Lord Jesus Christ.
2. The star of the Book of Revelation is Jesus Christ! It declares that the One who came the first time is one day going to come again.
3. An Inscription to the Prophecy.
I. For starter, some Terminology.
Revelation – the noun as used here, is found 19 times in the New Testament; while the verb form appears some 26 times.
It is made up of “away” and “a cover” thus “an uncovering.” It is a disclosure of something that was previously concealed. When used of a person it has the idea of making them visible.
Messiah was made visible, “a light to bring revelation to the Gentiles, and the glory of Your people Israel.” (Lu. 2:32).
Our own visible transformation at the Rapture will be an unveiling also, “for the earnest expectation of the creation eagerly waits for the revealing of the sons of God.” (Rom. 8:19).
of Jesus Christ – is it “from” Him or “about” Him? Both?
It could be either an objective or subjective genitive.
So why not have it both ways? Part of this Book is revealing Jesus Christ and part of it is Jesus Christ revealing things.
This Book certainly tells us about Jesus Christ.
The Book of Revelation answers that question!
II. Next, the specific Testimony.
It is about His Second Coming back to this earth, while the Gospels reveal Him in His humiliation, the book of Revelation is about Him in His exaltation.
Criswell, “The first time our Lord came into this world, He came in the veil of our flesh. His deity was covered over with His manhood. His Godhead was hidden by His humanity. Just once in a while did His deity sine through, as on the Mount Transfiguration. But most of the time the glory of the Son of God, the Second Person of the Holy Trinity were veiled.
While His Coming is glorious to believers it will be terrifying to the world at large.
The book of Revelation is all about the Person of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Wine is enjoyed globally. Maybe you’re one that likes drinking wine. It’s important to know about wine before you drink it. The following tips will teach you everything you need to know about wine.
If you are serving seafood for dinner, it can be paired quite well with a Pinot Grigio. The wine can really help to bring out the flavor of the food. White wine in general is also a good choice to pair with seafood. White wine and seafood make for a great match.
Storing your wine properly preserves its flavor. Having too hot or too cold temperatures can damage the flavors of any wines. Continue to allow the flavor to work its magic at a temperature of around 50 degrees. You can get a wine refrigerator, or you can simply store them in your cool basement.
Wine makes for a terrific sauce for beef dishes. To do this put some butter and red wine in a saucepan. Simmer, reduce and allow it to thicken. Once the sauce is ready, add just a bit to your beef dish.
To get more value and life from your wines, get a wine cellar. This is vital if you have wine that you spent a lot on. A wine cellar will ensure that your wine’s quality remains high for a long duration.
Sometimes, you will find that cheap wine can do the trick. If you want to find wine that tastes great and costs less, give Chilean wines a try. Wine from Chile is a very affordable option when you are on a budget. More specifically, look at Cabernet Sauvignons and Sauvignon Blancs. Certain countries such as New Zealand and South Africa produce high quality wine at low prices.
TIP! Wine is fantastic for drinking by itself and cooking as well. Putting red wine into your steak pan can enhance the flavor.
The right stemware is needed if you hope to enjoy a bottle of wine the proper way. Be sure it presents the best image to your guests by using sharp and sparkling glasses. You should never use chipped or dirty glasses to serve wine.
The vintage of a wine is the year the grapes were harvested, not the year the wine was produced. Typically, the harvest time is within the same year that the wine is dated. After being harvested, the grapes would be allowed to ferment until being bottled and sold. The wine may not have been on store shelves for a couple of years.
Don’t be afraid to mix up your selection when buying wine at the store. Don’t drink the same bottle time and time again, as it will get monotonous. Try one from a different place, or try a totally different type. You might even save some money.
When tasting a new wine, tilt your glass so you can appreciate the full spectrum of colors. Next, swirl the glass lightly and breathe in the full aroma of the wine. Take just a tiny sip, let it sit a bit in your mouth as you taste it, and then spit the wine back into your glass.
As the beginning of this article mentioned, people all over the world like wine. It might be that you are a wine lover yourself. To enjoy wine to its fullest, you must be willing to learn as much as you can about wine. The advice in this piece has given you a great start.

Shelagh Delaney, the acclaimed playwright whose ground-breaking debut, A Taste of Honey, challenged many of the taboos of 50s Britain, has died. She was 71 and had been suffering from cancer.
The feisty Salford-born writer, who drew on the gritty reality of working-class life, was one of the pioneers of the "kitchen sink" realism movement of the late 1950s and 1960s.
She was just 19 when A Taste of Honey premiered in 1958 and became an instant success, with runs in London and New York. An earthy and moving story of a teenage girl's pregnancy following a one-night stand with a black sailor, and her supportive relationship with a gay artist, it would become one of the defining feminist plays of the 1950s.
It was subsequently turned into a film, starring Rita Tushingham and earning Delaney and the film's director, Tony Richardson, Bafta and Writer's Guild awards for best screenplay.
Tushingham told the Guardian: "Shelagh was such an important person at the start of my career. I am deeply saddened that we have lost such an amazing talent."
Jane Villiers, Delaney's agent for the last 15 years, told Channel 4: "No word was wasted. Every word meant something. She was extraordinarily accurate about characters."
The daughter of a bus inspector of Irish descent, Delaney wrote A Taste of Honey, aged just 18, after seeing and disliking Terence Rattigan's play Variation on a Theme, partly because she felt his work showed insensitivity in the way it portrayed homosexuality.
She wrote it in two weeks, adapting it from a novel she was already working on. Her second play, The Lion in Love, which portrayed an impoverished family and a difficult marriage, did not enjoy the same critical success when it opened in 1960. She did not write for the theatre again until 1979, when she revised her BBC series The House that Jack Built.
In between she wrote screenplays: The White Bus (1965), Charlie Bubbles (1967), The Raging Moon (1970), and the screenplay for the 1985 film Dance with a Stranger, based on the story of Ruth Ellis, the last woman to be executed for a crime in Britain.
Driven, in part, by rebellion against a theatre which, she claimed, did not portray "life as the majority of ordinary people know it", she found a vitality in Salford that infused her writing. "The language is alive, it's virile, it lives and it breathes and you know exactly where it's coming from. Right out of the earth," she said in a 1960 film by Ken Russell. "Down by the river it's even romantic, if you can stand the smell."
Acknowledging her as an inspiration, the author Jeanette Winterson has said Delaney's talent had been allowed to fade because of her gender. "She was like a lighthouse – pointing the way and warning about the rocks underneath. She was the first working-class woman playwright," Winterson wrote in the Guardian last year. "She had all the talent and we let her go."
The singer Morrissey frequently referenced her writing in his lyrics, particularly in the song This Night Has Opened My Eyes, and her face appeared on the cover of The Smiths' compilation album Louder Than Bombs and single Girlfriend in a Coma. The Beatles were also said to be fans, recording their own version of the theme from the film adaptation of A Taste Of Honey.

November 02, 2011 • Heidi Shenk • "Finn" • "Halloween"
I may be a few days late, but none the less wanted to share our fun evening pumpkin carving. Sunday night, we finally decided to carve our pumpkins that we'd picked from our pumpkin and apple picking adventure. We found a few printable stencils online and used those for our designs. I chose a cat and Andrew chose a bat. Both turned out pretty awesome and were complimented by our many trick or treaters.

The 2007 McDonald's All America Game has came and gone, with the West team taking home a narrow 114-112 victory. O.J. Mayo disappointed, Michael Beasley flourished, and Gani Lawal surprised many.
Included are detailed breakdowns of the games top performers, as well as an interview with Syracuse recruit Donte Greene.
The MVP of this game, and rightfully so considering the way he dominated in the 20 minutes he played, Michael Beasley did a marvelous job displaying his entire arsenal of skills. It wouldnt be a stretch to say that if this were two years ago and players were still allowed to enter the draft out of high school, this performance would have locked him into the top 5-10 spots of this years draft. Unfortunately for Beasley (or not depending on your perspective), hell be heading to Kansas State, where he has a chance to take the Big 12 by storm in a way that will have many people comparing him to Kevin Durant.
An athletic combo forward who can play equally well in the post or on the perimeter, Beasley decided to start off this game going outside-in to show off his skill-set. He knocked down one 3-pointer from close to NBA range, and then followed that up with another from college range. Both looked smooth and effortless coming off his hands. He also handled the ball in transition looking like a true small forward, although the crafty guards of the West did do a good job sneaking up from behind him to try and poke the ball out.
Beasley also did a wonderful job creating his own shot from the perimeter, putting the ball on the floor with a quick first step and getting to the rim with the greatest of ease. Granted there wasnt much defense being played by the East, but its impressive regardless to see a guy that size create for himself like a guard, and then finish with a pretty left-handed floater. Even though he had every reason to, he didnt force the issue at all in his time on the floor, making the extra pass and showing a very good attitude around his teammates throughout.
Where Beasley was at his best, though, was down in the paint scrapping for offensive rebounds. He gets off the floor so quickly and has such great reaction time that no one was really able to keep a body on him when taking his frame and strength into consideration. He produced in this fashion with put-backs, tip-ins and just by cleaning up the old-fashioned way. At times, Beasley even got into a stance and played some defense, being fairly effective defending his position.
All in all, Beasley was the well deserving MVP of this game. If he keeps his head on straight and has the type of season we all know he can under Bob Huggins at Kansas State, there is really no limit on how high in the draft he could end up going.
The nations best player had his worst possible game Wednesday, shooting a frosty 23% from the field and missing the shot that would have won the game for his East squad. He reverted back to his reckless style of play that he had as a youngster, when he consistently forced shots and could be awfully selfish at times. After three fantastic days of practice, Mayo shocked every member of the media in attendance with his atrocious performance, and surely has some ground to make up for in the Nike Hoop Summit and whichever other all-star game he decides to play in.
From the tip, it was apparent that Mayo was looking to score before getting his teammates involved in the game. He was thinking shoot, shoot, shoot every time he came off that pick and roll, rarely even glancing at the roll man. He settled for far too many contested jumpers from the perimeter, opting to take the three instead of going to the rim the majority of the time he was on the court. To O.J.s defense, he made those shots all week long in practice and has shown that he can make them on a consistent basis, but when the lights were on, unfortunately he did not come to perform.
It was troubling to see the three time Mr. Basketball shoot so much after he showed so much promise throughout the week as a playmaker. In the practice sessions, he looked to get all of his teammates involved when he would break down the defense, instead of forcing awfully difficult shots like he did Wednesday night. The Louisville fans even began booing Mayo late in the game, when his desire to put points on the board began to draw more attention then the actual game itself. His superb court vision was not on show at all, leaving many who had not seen him play before believe that he is a pure chucker with no other skills at all.
On the bright side, O.J. was pretty solid defensively when guarding power guard Eric Gordon. He was able to keep in front of E.J. well enough so that the explosive guard was not able to make it to the rim on Mayo like he did on so many others. He also showed flashes of his offensive prowess and creativity in the lane, converting on two pretty ridiculous layups in the paint over Michael Beasley.
It was clear from the tip that Mayos head was not in the game and that he was out there to put points on the board, no matter how much it hurt his team. He seemed to lose the confidence and swagger that he is renowned for, looking like an average high school player instead of the future NBA All-Star he looked like all week in practice. Mayo will look to avenge his poor performance in the Nike Hoop Summit, as well as either the Sonny Vacarro Roundball Classic or the Jordan Classic. Simply put, this was the absolute worst performance that we have ever seen Mayo have on the biggest stage he has ever played on, and dont expect this to happen again in any of the all star games this stud combo guard partakes in again.
Another one of the top performers of the night for the East was their extremely long and athletic big man Gani Lawal, who just wanted to do the dirty work for them all game long. No one played harder in Louisville, whether it was running the floor like a madman, being incredibly active on the glass, playing very strong defense, or trying to fight for position inside with Michael Beasley. 12 rebounds (8 offensive) in 18 minutes should give you an indication of the kind of nose for the ball that Lawal has, and when combined with his incredible wingspan and athleticism, were talking about a guy who can have a real impact in his career at Georgia Tech.
He runs the floor extremely well, has good, strong hands, and seems to be a reliable target to throw the ball to for lobs and easy finishes. Hes not the kind of guy that wants to get pretty around the hoop, hell just go up and dunk it if given the opportunity to. When he tries to start creating offense for himself is when things start getting murky for him. He doesnt look to be the most polished guy in the world by any stretch, but has reportedly only been playing basketball for a few years now. Numerous people we know have gone out of their way to tell us how highly they think of Lawals attitude, character and work ethic, and that alone makes us think hes got a pretty good chance to develop into an NBA prospect down the road.
Nick Calathes doesnt exactly look like an elite basketball prospect. Hes painfully thin, and doesnt move up and down the court like a D1 floor general. But it doesnt take long to realize that there is plenty of reason for all the hype surrounding the next Gator point guard. After a few forced passes early on, Calathes settled down and played an excellent game. His court vision is clearly special, and his feel for the game makes up for a lot of what is lacking in the athleticism department. He is a threat to pull up from just about anywhere, is crafty enough with his dribble to get to the basket, and - most dangerous of all  he is a constant threat to create easy looks for his teammates via the pass. There was an assortment of highlight reel passes on the night, the kind that you dont expect a 66 18 year old to make.
Of course, there are those physical deficiencies. Calathes has continued to grow well into his high school career, and it is going to take some time and a significant amount of work in the weight room before he is up to par in terms of athleticism and strength. All in all, this was an impressive performance. He will immediately step into a big role at Florida, and it should be interesting to see how Donovan chooses to utilize him. Donovan already received a committment from 58 standout Erving Walker from the 2008 class, and should have a few other ballhandling options returning from this years roster. Donovan going to more of a multiple lead guard lineup would give Calathes time to develop physically and help him against more athletic defenders. It is fairly clear that he will emerge as a star over the course of his college career. As far as his professional future goes, it all depends on just how much he can improve as an athlete.
The Baltimore native had a fair showing in the McDonalds game, giving fans a glimpse of the inside/outside game that he will take to Syracuse next year. He and future SU teammate Jonny Flynn showed outstanding chemistry, converting twice on pick and roll plays. Greene was on the receiving end, finishing one with a tough layup inside and the other with an alley oop dunk. The combo forward looked quite comfortable playing on the perimeter, knocking down one three pointer and handling the ball well. He showed flashes of why many compare him to Kevin Durant, given his length, athleticism, and inside/out skill set.
Two areas of the game that Donte struggled in mightily were perimeter defense and pure physical strength. He was beat off of the dribble pretty regularly by Michael Beasley and Kyle Singler, not moving as feet as well as you would like to see a small forward do so. When in the paint, Greene was pushed around by Beasley, Love, and Blake Griffin, allowing the trio to combine for 12 offensive rebounds. While his frame is not outstanding by any means, it certainly does have the potential to add another 15-20 pounds to it by the time he plays his first game in a Syracuse uniform. Luckily, Greene acknowledged the fact that these were the two biggest weaknesses of his game, and assured DraftExpress that he will be working on them in the near future.
Greene has been rumored by many to be a potential one and done guy, mostly in part to his size, athleticism, and skill set for a big forward. He said that he would have most likely entered the draft this past year out of high school if given the opportunity, so he is surely a guy that draft fans must keep an eye on for the 2008 NBA Draft.
Lets make one thing clear  this game was about shot happy lead guards getting up and down the court, and athletic big men dunking. There wasnt much of a place for a patient, crafty swingman like Kyle Singler. Touches were scarce, and his outside shot wasnt falling. Nonetheless, Singler still found ways to contribute with defensive effort rarely seen in a HS all-star game and deft, unselfish play on the offensive end. He showed off an impressive midrange game with a nice baseline jumper in the first half, and impressed the entire way with his court vision and passing. His jumper loses effectiveness the further away from the basket he is, but he has NBA-ready form and all sorts of ways to get his shot off.
While we dont know for sure just how dominant Singler will be early on in his career at Duke, it is fairly obvious that the program needs an elite level scorer, someone who can put the offense on their back and hit big shots. Singler clearly has the tools, and has the tools to emerge as the next great Duke player in his freshman season. But so did Josh McRoberts, so it will be important for this skilled swingman to assert himself right away.

The 2007 McDonald 's All America Game has came and gone , with the West team taking home a narrow 114 - 112 victory . O.J. Mayo disappointed , Michael Beasley flourished , and Gani Lawal surprised many .
 Included are detailed breakdowns of the games top performers , as well as an interview with Syracuse recruit Donte Greene .
 The MVP of this game , and rightfully so considering the way he dominated in the 20 minutes he played , Michael Beasley did a marvelous job displaying his entire arsenal of skills . It wouldnt be a stretch to say that if this were two years ago and players were still allowed to enter the draft out of high school , this performance would have locked him into the top 5 - 10 spots of this years draft . Unfortunately for Beasley ( or not depending on your perspective ) , hell be heading to Kansas State , where he has a chance to take the Big 12 by storm in a way that will have many people comparing him to Kevin Durant .
 An athletic combo forward who can play equally well in the post or on the perimeter , Beasley decided to start off this game going outside - in to show off his skill - set . He knocked down one 3 - pointer from close to NBA range , and then followed that up with another from college range . Both looked smooth and effortless coming off his hands . He also handled the ball in transition looking like a true small forward , although the crafty guards of the West did do a good job sneaking up from behind him to try and poke the ball out .
 Beasley also did a wonderful job creating his own shot from the perimeter , putting the ball on the floor with a quick first step and getting to the rim with the greatest of ease . Granted there wasnt much defense being played by the East , but its impressive regardless to see a guy that size create for himself like a guard , and then finish with a pretty left - handed floater . Even though he had every reason to , he didnt force the issue at all in his time on the floor , making the extra pass and showing a very good attitude around his teammates throughout .
 Where Beasley was at his best , though , was down in the paint scrapping for offensive rebounds . He gets off the floor so quickly and has such great reaction time that no one was really able to keep a body on him when taking his frame and strength into consideration . He produced in this fashion with put - backs , tip - ins and just by cleaning up the old - fashioned way . At times , Beasley even got into a stance and played some defense , being fairly effective defending his position .
 All in all , Beasley was the well deserving MVP of this game . If he keeps his head on straight and has the type of season we all know he can under Bob Huggins at Kansas State , there is really no limit on how high in the draft he could end up going .
 The nations best player had his worst possible game Wednesday , shooting a frosty 23 % from the field and missing the shot that would have won the game for his East squad . He reverted back to his reckless style of play that he had as a youngster , when he consistently forced shots and could be awfully selfish at times . After three fantastic days of practice , Mayo shocked every member of the media in attendance with his atrocious performance , and surely has some ground to make up for in the Nike Hoop Summit and whichever other all - star game he decides to play in .
 From the tip , it was apparent that Mayo was looking to score before getting his teammates involved in the game . He was thinking shoot , shoot , shoot every time he came off that pick and roll , rarely even glancing at the roll man . He settled for far too many contested jumpers from the perimeter , opting to take the three instead of going to the rim the majority of the time he was on the court . To O.J.s defense , he made those shots all week long in practice and has shown that he can make them on a consistent basis , but when the lights were on , unfortunately he did not come to perform .
 It was troubling to see the three time Mr. Basketball shoot so much after he showed so much promise throughout the week as a playmaker . In the practice sessions , he looked to get all of his teammates involved when he would break down the defense , instead of forcing awfully difficult shots like he did Wednesday night . The Louisville fans even began booing Mayo late in the game , when his desire to put points on the board began to draw more attention then the actual game itself . His superb court vision was not on show at all , leaving many who had not seen him play before believe that he is a pure chucker with no other skills at all .
 On the bright side , O.J. was pretty solid defensively when guarding power guard Eric Gordon . He was able to keep in front of E.J. well enough so that the explosive guard was not able to make it to the rim on Mayo like he did on so many others . He also showed flashes of his offensive prowess and creativity in the lane , converting on two pretty ridiculous layups in the paint over Michael Beasley .
 It was clear from the tip that Mayos head was not in the game and that he was out there to put points on the board , no matter how much it hurt his team . He seemed to lose the confidence and swagger that he is renowned for , looking like an average high school player instead of the future NBA All - Star he looked like all week in practice . Mayo will look to avenge his poor performance in the Nike Hoop Summit , as well as either the Sonny Vacarro Roundball Classic or the Jordan Classic . Simply put , this was the absolute worst performance that we have ever seen Mayo have on the biggest stage he has ever played on , and dont expect this to happen again in any of the all star games this stud combo guard partakes in again .
 Another one of the top performers of the night for the East was their extremely long and athletic big man Gani Lawal , who just wanted to do the dirty work for them all game long . No one played harder in Louisville , whether it was running the floor like a madman , being incredibly active on the glass , playing very strong defense , or trying to fight for position inside with Michael Beasley . 12 rebounds ( 8 offensive ) in 18 minutes should give you an indication of the kind of nose for the ball that Lawal has , and when combined with his incredible wingspan and athleticism , were talking about a guy who can have a real impact in his career at Georgia Tech .
 He runs the floor extremely well , has good , strong hands , and seems to be a reliable target to throw the ball to for lobs and easy finishes . Hes not the kind of guy that wants to get pretty around the hoop , hell just go up and dunk it if given the opportunity to . When he tries to start creating offense for himself is when things start getting murky for him . He doesnt look to be the most polished guy in the world by any stretch , but has reportedly only been playing basketball for a few years now .

Yesterday we went on a family outing to the San Francisco Zoo. Back in late April, during his birthday preparations, Michael had asked for a trip to the zoo. Chris told him we’d go in the summer when the weather was better and the animals were more likely to be active.
This owl is enormous! While I was studying her, Athena flew toward me. I now know what it feels like to be a small, furry creature seeing that shadow coming for me. In the Harry Potter books, Draco’s familiar is an Eagle Owl. The owl’s eyes really are that intense orange color!
Kachina and Kiona are orphaned cubs from Montana. They were found foraging for food in a barn. Fortunately, arrangements were made for the zoo to give them a home.
There are few creatures on this planet more adorable than a red panda. Even when one is just hanging out, munching leaves, it’s a delight. To judge from the number of stuffed toys red pandas I saw people carrying around, the zoo must sell more of those than any other animal.
This is when I got really excited. I didn’t know the zoo had a Fishing Cat. There she sat, on a stony ledge right beside the waterfall in her enclosure. She took no notice of us humans until a man with a service dog came closer. Then the Fishing Cat stood up and took a good look at that dog! Fishing cats’ paws are partly webbed. They pat the water to imitate how bugs move. That draws the fish, then the cats dive in!
Tigers are my favorite animal, especially the white tiger. We saw a Bengal tiger and a Sumatran tiger. Tigers are supremely cool and they know it.
You need to understand just how big a rhino really is. Six feet tall at the shoulder, weighing up to three thousand pounds. My car, a Dodge Neon, weighs a bit over twenty-five hundred pounds and comes up to my chest. I had to stand there staring at the rhino for a good few minutes just to get my mind around the sheer size!
Speaking of size, I was also boggled by the length and girth of the hippo, who was underwater and stayed there aside from a few brief bobs to the surface for air. This photo gives you some perspective. Do not annoy a hippo. It may well be the last thing you ever do.
How gorgeous can one large feline get? What impressed me is the fact that a snow leopard’s tail is usually as long as its body.
These animals are all endangered species. Please, if you haven’t been able to see them in person, do so as soon as possible. If you find yourself captivated by one or more of these wonderful creatures, consider a donation or volunteer work or whatever you can manage.

Crassula capitella 'Green' is a branching succulent with fleshy propeller-like leaves that are green in colour.
Clusters of white flowers rest on the leaves in the summer.
It does best in part sun and requires shade in hotter inland sites.
Although fairly drought tolerant along coast it requires regular irrigation inland.

Mopane 1.5" x 1.5" x 12"
Mopane is one of the most underrated African timbers but it has many desirable characteristics. Found only in Africa it is traditionally used for house and fence buidling, for railways sleepers and as mining props - such is the dense and rot resistant nature of this heavy reddish timber. In addition, the bark is used locally to make twine and for tanning , the twigs are chewed as tooth brushes and the leaves are used to heal wounds. The tree is a major food source for the mopane worm, which are rich in protein and commonly eaten by the local people.
It makes excellent knife handles and is used for making woodwind instruments.
Blanks supplied sawn and unfinished with their grain ends wax-dipped to protect from splitting .

When God created the universe he didn't make a giant grey lump. He stretched out the heavens like a canvas, filling them with objects of various colors and shapes and sizes. He established the laws of nature and the order of the world. He created life where there was no life, giving his creatures the capacity to bring forth new generations as diverse as every life form on the planet. And he did all of this on purpose-diversity by design. God established differences in his creation so that all things might complemenet each other as they live in accordance with his wise plan.
But mankind's rebellion against God brought disorder into the world. Instead of diversity in harmony, we live in alienation and prejudice. Instead of finding beauty in our complementary natures, we push for sameness. Instead of right and wrong, we talk of customs and opinions. This has not led to greater freedom and happiness, but to confusion and despair. Only Jesus leads us to see the beauty of God's diverse creation and our place in it, so that he is glorified, we are satisfied, and the world is renewed.
