A bicycle workstand is a great investment, they hold your bike securely leaving both hands free to work. They hold the bike in the air and can usually be adjusted in height and angle, this means you can reach those awkward parts and rotate the wheels, cranks and adjust gears and brakes at will. Most workstands have a 'jaw' which clamps around the bike, we suggest clamping at the seatpost as this is usually a thicker material than the frame and less prone to damage. We also list a range of wheel jigs within this section. Wheel jigs are used for holding the wheel while being 'trued up', these are exceedingly handy as they feature guides to help you remove both sideways and up and down buckles. Both types of workstand will usually fold away for easy storage, or you can even take them to a race to help set your bike up.

http://www.vg247.com/2014/02/21/the-...creens-inside/The Pinball Arcade is launching today on PlayStation 4, bringing 22 reverse-engineered pinball tables to the format, courtesy of developer Farsight Studios.
Tables include adaptations of Star Trek, Twilight Zone, Creature from the Black Lagoon and more. We've got screens below.
Mark Cale, CEO of publisher System 3 said, "We've been working hard to bring the ultimate pinball experience to PlayStation 4, and with The Pinball Arcade, we have delivered a flippin' great game. With authenticity, incredible value, and exclusive content, we're pleased to give gamers and pinball fans the greatest and highest rated pinball game ever made."
Anyone picking this up? It looks fun, but I'd rather play FIFA or PS4 than a pinball game

Booker T Jones – Green Onions
Booker T Jones
Booker T. Jones was born in Memphis, Tennessee, on November 12, 1944. He was named in honor of his father, Booker T. Jones, Sr., who was named in honor of Booker T. Washington, the educator. Booker T. Jones, Sr. was a science teacher at the school, providing the family with a relatively stable, lower-middle-class milieu.
Jones was a prodigy, playing the oboe, saxophone, trombone, bass, and piano at school and serving as organist at his church. He attended Booker T. Washington High School, the alma mater of Rufus Thomas and shared the hallowed halls with future stars like Isaac Hayes's writing partner David Porter; saxophonist Andrew Love of The Memphis Horns; soul singer/songwriter William Bell and Earth, Wind, & Fire's Maurice White.
Jones's first entry into professional music came at age sixteen, when he played baritone saxophone on Satellite (soon to be Stax) Records' first hit, "Cause I Love You", by Rufus Thomas and Carla Thomas. Willie Mitchell had also hired him for his band where he started on sax and moved to bass later. It was here that he met Al Jackson, Jr., who he brought to Stax. Simultaneously, he formed a combo with Maurice White, and David Porter, where Jones played guitar.
Over the next few years, Jones divided his time between studying classical music composition, composing and transposition at Indiana University, playing with the MGs on the weekends back in Memphis, serving as a session musician with other Stax acts, and writing songs that would become classics. He wrote, with Eddie Floyd, "I've Never Found a Girl (To Love Me Like You Do)", Otis Redding's "I Love You More Than Words Can Say", and, with William Bell, Albert King's "Born Under a Bad Sign". The latter would later be popularized in the cover version by power trio Cream.
In 1970, Jones moved to California and stopped playing sessions for Stax, after becoming frustrated with Stax's treatment of the MGs as employees rather than musicians. Even though Jones was given the title of Vice President at Stax before leaving, as he put it, "There were titles given (to us) but we didn't actually make the decisions". While still under contract to Stax, he appeared on Stephen Stills' eponymous album (1970). The 1971 album, Melting Pot would be the last Booker T. & the MGs album issued on Stax.
On February 12, 2012 The Road from Memphis won at the 54th Grammy Awards for Best Pop Instrumental Album. Jones holds a total of 4 Grammy Awards.
Jones received an honorary doctorate degree from Indiana University's Jacobs School of Music at the 2012 undergraduate commencement exercises on Saturday, May 5, 2012. He had originally attended Indiana University in the 1960s, even after having recorded hits for Stax Records.
Jones was featured on organ for singer Kelly Hogan on Hogan's 2013 release on Anti- records, "I Like to Keep Myself in Pain."
In June, 2013, Jones released his 10th album, Sound The Alarm, on Stax Records. It features guest artists Anthony Hamilton, Raphael Saadiq, Jay James, Mayer Hawthorne, Estelle, Vintage Trouble, Luke James, and Booker's son Ted Jones.

What do they know?
We put in our application to begin our home study just before Christmas, in the expectation that we would be able to get started in January. When they received our application I had a call from E, our current social worker. She had already explained that she couldn't be the person to do our home study with us, because she had just taken on another couple and she only works part time anyway. When she phoned she said something rather convoluted about how she would like to have one last meeting with us before the homestudy was passed to a colleague, so that she could give an up-to-date handover. . .
Well, she came round on Tuesday and basically said that they would not start a home study until we had had some counselling. Or more specifically until I had, because she 'feels' there is 'something there' which I need some counselling for.
I made th mistake of trying to discuss it with her. Although my last miscarriage was only June, I have had the chance to come to terms with them, through repeated experience since November 03. I have never seen a heartbeat, never had a scan in which there was really, undeniably a baby (we saw a yolk sac once. That's about it). I don't want to be accused of being in denial here, but honestly I do not feel that I have been through anything like the traumas that Nicole or Jill or Manuela or so many, many others have. And actually, that experience with H was more likely to leave me needing counselling . . . I gave her a few instances of how I genuinely don't think I need counselling - I have good friends I can talk to, this blog and all your support, and so on. I have even turned around all the problems that the miscarriages, albeit indirectly, caused me at work. But she wasn't having it of course. I should have known - these SW's have filled out a box that says 'recommend for counselling before proceeding' and I cannot untick the box, no matter what. Well, only by getting some.
She had brought along an embarrassing couple of sheets of printout from a google search about counsellors in our area - mostly, if you looked closer, they would be of no use to me (I am not a disturbed adolescent, for starters). But R has contacted his GP who is referring us to someone at the hospital, and SW will be happy with that, apparently. She says I need only go once (to tick the box) and if I think that is enough . . . but not going at all is not an option, obviously.
Hoops hoops hoops.
I WANT TO GET ON WITH THIS! I want to move forward, to feel that there might actually be some hope on the horizon.
Oh - and moving out of the county may not help as although we could possibly adopt an "easier" child, we would be further from our 'support networks' which would not look so good for us from an agency's viewpoint.
We aren't progressing very quickly here.
Sorry - my frustation is showing through.

I was lucky enough to shoot these two for their wedding and engagement session. It was a beautiful engagement session in the fall at Lake Overholser in Yukon/Bethany area complete with a fall sunset!!
They even brought along their doggies for a few of the photos!!
Their wedding was a New Year wedding on Jan 2 at Noah's Event center in Oklahoma City. Her colors were purple and white!
Her hair was done by Lindsay Mingee and her make-up was done by Celina Marie Bernier
I stayed with the girls as they got ready and my amazing second shooter/assistant Hannah Dougan hung out with the guys!
Then it was time to say "I do".
The bride sweetly surprised the groom, and judging by the gasp in the room, half of the attendees by reciting her wedding vows in spanish. It's really hard to shoot a wedding with tears welling up and rolling down your cheeks. It was truly a sweet moment!
With the vows said, now it's time to kiss that bride!! They kept it short (and quick) and sweet!!
They're married!!! Now the fun starts…

No workouts to report. Just a fantastic dinner with good friends, John and Michelle. I consider myself lucky that I have such close lifelong friends in my life. We spent hours eating, drinking, talking and laughing. I had such a good time that I felt like I was on vacation.
Hold onto those friends. It can be so hard to do that though with all this triathlon training. It feels like some friends -- close ones even -- get left by the wayside, like bystanders becoming a blur as you speed by on the TT bike. It's not intentional. It's life. It's changing priorities. Shifts in gears and focus.
Some people are worth slowing down for. Some experiences are worth slowing down for.
It's not often I can say that I feel truly enriched after a meal. When the conversation and company is every bit as scrumptious as the grilled swordfish and homemade pesto.
Tonight was one of those nights. I am grateful. I think I appreciate them even more because I know how rare and special such an experience is.
215 days and counting.

I am late writing about the big feast. Thursday, I was exhausted after the gorging, and then the cleaning, was done. Yesterday, I awoke at the crack of dawn to meet up with mom and aunt for our traditional black Friday outing and discovered that our dear male cat, Newton, was urinating blood. So that meant I was at the vet instead of the mall and have been distracted taking care of him. He seems to be better today but I am still keeping a close watch on him. All cat lovers, send us positive thoughts.
This morning, I finally have time to sit down and write about the feast. Did all my planning make the day a breeze? Was each dish a picture of perfection? Was I cool, calm, and collected? Of course not.
I got up around seven to put the turkey in the oven. I coated it in an herbed salt mixture the night before and I had to rinse it, pat it dry, stuff the cavity with herbs and citrus, and then coat the outside in melted butter. The turkey was in the oven by eight. The plan was for our guests to arrive at one, the recipe estimated that the bird would need five hours in the oven. I took it out every forty-five minutes to baste. When I took it out for a basting around eleven, it looked done, I took out the meat thermometer and sure enough it was at, actually above, temperature. I took it out and covered it in foil. I began to fret that I would be serving a dry, cold turkey. I put the foil covered sides in the oven to warm. I set the table. I blanched the green beans. I put on water to boil potatoes. I took out the cutting board and knife to prep the potatoes and then I realized that I never actually purchased potatoes. You simply can't have Thanksgiving without mashed potatoes.
One of the advantages of living in a place with more than two stores is that there is usually something open. We still find this fact to be a decadent novelty. Casey ran out to the nearest grocery, the one we usually don't frequent, but that is another story. He purchased potatoes and was on his way back when our guests called to say that they were runnig ahead of schedule.
They arrived to find me furiously setting potatoes to boil, simultaneously chopping sun-dried tomatoes, dripping with sweat, and looking haggard. So much for the poised picture of domestic goddessness I had hoped to paint. Casey mixed drinks. I composed myself and the kitchen.
We all sat down and gave thanks. We had family and we had food. The turkey was not dry, it was actually damn good. I may not be the modern Donna Reed, but I think the day was a success.

North Korea's insane media operation decided to send President Barack Obama a letter from Abraham Lincoln this week, in which Honest Abe scolds Obama for nuclear hypocrisy from beyond the grave.
North Korea's media writers did not put much effort into duplicating Lincoln's writing style. Sky News reports the letter begins, "Hey, Obama, I know you've got a lot on your mind these days… I've decided to give you a little advice after seeing you lost in thought before my portrait during a recent Easter Prayer Breakfast."
According to North Korea, Zombie Lincoln's advice would be for the United States to unilaterally dismantle its nuclear weapons, before giving those lovable scamps in Pyongyang any more grief about their nuclear ambitions.
"If the United States, a country with the world's largest nuclear weapons stockpile, only pays lip service, like a parrot, and doesn't do anything actively, it will be a mockery to the entire world," said the ersatz Lincoln letter. "Hey, Obama, it's the 21st Century. The tactic by past American presidents, including me, who deceived the people… is outdated. That doesn't work now. The world doesn't trust an America that doesn't take responsibility for what it says."
It is the least-convincing impression of our 16th President ever, easily stealing the crown from the previous champion, Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter.
As Sky News observes, North Korea wrote this letter just two weeks after threatening to "lay waste to Washington with a submarine-launched nuclear missile in a menacing propaganda video," which is something Abraham Lincoln would have severely disapproved of.
South Korea's Yonhap News adds that North Korea's fake Lincoln "advised Obama that North Korea will never crumple under the sanctions and economic blockade, saying he feels heavy in mind to hear such words as 'the toughest and most effective sanctions in the history of the United Nations were imposed on North Korea.'"
"Look, Obama, the US has been threatening the stability and peace of that small country in the East for more than 70 years, and such an act is so shameful that I can't bear to see the US obstructing the people's development," said Pyongyang Lincoln, in another passage related by the New York Post. "It stifles my chest to hear the news of the punishing UN sanctions imposed against that country… that country will never fall from the effect of sanctions or economic blockades."
The New York Post quotes Suh Dong-gu, of the Korea Institute of National Unification, suggesting this Lincoln shtick might be North Korea's way of "trying to ease tension with the U.S." with a little humor, "imitating America's most well-known figure to make themselves as 'American' as they can be."

I responded to an ad that had this in it:
– testing a computer road navigation system.
– making conversation about road navigation with a computer system.
So from 4:30-6:30 on Monday I'm going to go see what that means and make 10000 yen. In my mind I had built it up to mean that I would be driving around a track. I've never driven around a track, and I was excited. I was happy to get the job. I told them my international driver's license had run out, and they said no problem, but now that I look at the job details again, It's right in Shinjuku, so I'm afraid it's going to be some sort of simulation. We'll see on Monday.

As Loose Debra evolves it's clear that followers like the Blog, and subject-matter has expanded to include aspects of freer lifestyles.
In our quest to free ourselves and others from the ties that bind, we'll look into anything that promises liberty.

Puig is one of the current giants in the perfumery industry with international representation in over 130 countries. The company, which was founded by Antonio Puig in 1914, now operates under some of the most iconic fragrance brands such as Carolina Herrera, Paco Rabanne and Nina Ricci and has its own fragrances released over the years. Now you can buy some of the most elegant perfumes in the company's range at cheap stockist prices. You will certainly have an incredible online shopping experience.
The company was founded by Antonio Puig Castello in 1914 in Spain and soon focused exclusively on its cosmetics and fragrance businesses. It marketed the first lipstick introduced in Spain in 1922. In the 1940's, it released the now iconic fragrance Agua Lavanda Puig. The perfume was a huge hit and marked the start of the expansion of the business.
The international expansion of Puig began in the 1960's when the four sons of Antonio Puig took over the business from their father. The company opened its offices in France and in the United States and quickly gained popularity worldwide for its high-quality innovative cosmetic products and perfumes based on extensive laboratory research. The company incorporated Spanish designer Paco Rabanne and the Calandre fragrance was introduced as a result of the collaboration. Some of the fragrances launched by the company in the 1960's and still produced today include Agua Brava and Quorum for men and Azur de Puig for women.
The company started by Antonio Puig achieved a remarkable success in the 1980's by signing an agreement with designer Carolina Herrera for the creation and marketing of all her perfumes. In 1994, the Aqua Quorum perfume for men was launched. In 1997, Puig entered into an agreement with movie star Antonio Banderas for the creation of his own life of perfumes called Antonio Banderas Fragrances. In 1998, the company acquired one of the most famous perfume brands, Nina Ricci. It also works in collaboration with Prada for the development of their perfumes and cosmetic products.
The successors of Antonio Puig continued to expand the company further in the 2000's. The highly successful perfumes for women Barbie Pink, Barbie Blue and Barbie B were launched. The Quorum line of fragrances for men was continued with Quorum Silver. 2008 was a great year for the company which signed an agreement for a personal line of fragrances with Colombian music star Shakira. Valentino and Jean Paul Gautier are among the latest brands acquired by Puig. The company became the major shareholder in the French group for luxury fashion products Hermes.
Over the years, the company established by Antonio Puig in the beginning of the 20th century has become a leader in the fragrance industry with its ability to introduce famous fashion brands in it. The success of the company is massive. It has five production plants which release over 330 million bottles of perfume every year.
Now you can find great discount and sale bargains on Antonio Puig perfumes when you shop online. Save on shipping too with super low rates for delivery to any place in Australia including Sydney, Canberra, Brisbane, Perth, Melbourne, Adelaide, Hobart and Darwin.

It's refreshing to read in the Oct. 12 article Unconventional and splashy that Bruce Berkowitz's desire to build a museum to display his impressive art collection will not require waterfront land donated by the city of Miami or Miami-Dade County. That he will not need a board of directors to sell their souls for the naming rights and to fund its completion. That he will not require taxpayers to help maintain it in perpetuity. Thank you, Mr. Berkowitz, for adding to the quality of life in our community, without sending us the bill, as so many other have.

Funky Junk's Saturday Night Special~~Vignettes
11 comments:
Great to see you join up for the party Elizabeth!ReplyDelete
First off, I'd love to congratulate you on your fine looking blog! I've noticed those widgets are wonderfully centered, you have a cute siggy, the link within is a good perk. You've achieved a passing grade for bloggyness, girl! :)
And on the vignettes, wow, you've been one busy vignetter. :) Loving the antique down home touches like the old signs, whites, black metal... lovely!
My fav is the utinsels in the white jugs in the box. Love the layering and depth there!
You requested suggestions? The cab with the blue inside, my eye pops first to the wicker. What you want to attempt is to centralize the eye flow. My first preference would be to remove the weight of the basket and have it all the same theme in the cab, with lots of variations in height differences on each shelf.
Play around with that idea if you wish, and take another pic and see what you think! Taking a pic helps, it looks so diff on your camera vs in person. Times like these don't you wish we could simply step into our monitor screens and visit our friends and play with their stuff? LOL!!
Thanks for joining the party, girl! Good to see you! And I appreciate all your generous comments.
Funky Junk Donna

I'm partial to kitchen themed vignettes, so I especially love yours. What a gorgeous aqua color inside that cabinet!ReplyDelete

You have many beautiful pieces... and how you put them together in these vignettes is great!! :)ReplyDelete
@cheapchichome. It's been awhile since I've stopped by. Love your vignettes! I'm going to check out the BM paint color, too. I'm a BM girl - wait that doesn't sound right!ReplyDelete
That was fun!! I love all your vignettes...but I'm loving that Bread box....I happen to have the same one on my kitchen cabinet...hope someone sees your "wish list" and you get that Kitchen Aid....it's a GodSend.....especially when baking bread..ReplyDelete
I really LOVE getting comments and read each one. They truly make me smile! If you have a question I will email you. Due to a huge increase in spam comments I have enabled comment moderation but I will post all friendly comments. Have a great day and thanks so much for stopping by!

Botha CCE
Botha Branch of Comhaltas Ceoltoiri Eireann was founded in 1962, notably, ahead of its time, a cross community branch. We have welcomed everyone who enjoys traditional Irish music, song and dance ever since. We are proud to have nurtured many musicians over the years that have matured into skilled performers. Botha is the longest standing, continuously running branch in Fermanagh.
The Botha CCE committee would like to take this opportunity to thank all the performers, both old and young, who participated in our recent Christmas concert in Tir Navar. It was a resounding success and an excellent night's entertainment for all who attended. We would especially like to thank the parents of the children who helped out on the night in providing refreshments and in organising the venue
Our popular music classes continue on Wednesday nights with our tutor Seamus Sweeney from Ballyshannon ably assisted by Eileen Kane. The classes commence at 6.00 for beginners and continue to 9.00 when our adult classes start.

The Causal Connections Between Goods 2: Time Business News
Our well-being at any given time, to the extent that it depends upon the satisfaction of our needs, is assured if we have at our disposal the goods required for their direct satisfaction. If, for example, we have the necessary amount of bread, we are in a position to satisfy our need for food directly. The causal connection between bread and the satisfaction of one of our needs is thus a direct one, and a testing of the goods-character of bread according to the principles laid down in the preceding section presents no difficulty. The same applies to all other goods that may be used directly for the satisfaction of our needs, such as beverages, clothes, jewelry, etc.
But we have not yet exhausted the list of things whose good character we recognize. For in addition to goods that serve our needs directly (and which will, for the sake of brevity, henceforth be called "goods of first order") we find a large number of other things in our economy that cannot be put in any direct causal connection with the satisfaction of our needs, but which possess goods-character no less certainly than goods of first order. In our markets, next to bread and other goods capable of satisfying human needs directly, we also see quantities of flour, fuel, and salt. We find that implements and tools for the production of bread, and the skilled labor services necessary for their use, are regularly traded.

Police investigation remains in a deadlock today as another murder victim has been discovered following the same pattern of six previous homicides by an assailant who has come to be known around law enforcement circles as "The Looney Tunes Killer."
Police were successfully able link the murders together, after initially believing them all to be unrelated, upon finding the remains of Byron Hendricks, the fourth victim. Hendricks, a member of a touring group of Civil War re-enactors had been found crushed to death by an anvil that had fallen on his head. The incident was first dismissed as a freak accident, the coroner even going as far to say that Hendricks was simply "a victim of circumstance."
However, detectives began noticing similarities between Hendricks and three previously unsolved deaths, and quickly came to realize that these occurrences did not happen by chance, but were in fact enacted by a felon who remains at large. The first, and by far most gruesome, murder was that of Roger O'Hare, who had been shot in the face, and had his jaw surgically removed, and reattached on the back of his head, in a similar fashion to Daffy Duck.
Initially thought to be the actions of a possibly psychotic plastic surgeon, police did not make a connection with the death of O'Hare and the deaths of James and Rebecca Simpson, who died in a car crash when the unknowingly drove their Toyota Prius into a wall that had been painted to look like a street going beneath a bridge. It was not until Hendricks' unfortunate encounter with the anvil that police were able to clearly see a recurring theme in the deaths.
Since the death of Hendricks, which helped ignite the case into a pull blown police investigation, four more victims have been discovered whose deaths have followed The Looney Tunes Killer's formula.
Oliver Davies' body was found with evidence that he had been deceived into eating a stick of dynamite disguised as a hot dog, and Terry Mueller met an untimely demise when he lit up a cigar only to find the fillings were replaced with gun powder. Paul Banner, the seventh, and most recent victim, was simply thrown from the roof of a twelve-story building dressed as a coyote.
"He's just messing with us now," says lead detective on the Looney Tune Killer case, Shaun Riley. "This latest murder is just him rubbing it in our faces that we're nowhere close to catching this guy."
While police tell us they've been paying special attention to sales of dynamite, anvils, and rocket-powered skates, they admit that due to extensive catalogue of Looney Tunes cartoons going back for decades, that there is no way to guess his next attack.
Detective Riley goes on to tell us that if the Looney Tunes Killer has in his possession a black hole that can be relocated at will to lay across streets and sidewalks, that he could also be responsible for a number of unsolved missing persons cases as well.
The investigation remains on-going at this point, but one can only hope this demented, albeit comical, killer is brought to justice soon.
"Although we don't condone his actions," Riley tells us, "it is somewhat refreshing to have a serial killer with a sense of humor for a change. Remembering all those old cartoons that we watched as kids, trying to determine what his next move is going to be, has made this the most nostalgic investigation I've ever had the pleasure of working on."

In close to five seasons with the Rockets, Patrick Beverley has had his fair share of battles with Spurs guard Tony Parker, but the relationship between the two goes back further.
"He's always been a good person to me even when I was a Miami Heat, always gave me words of wisdom," Beverley said Thursday after the Spurs announced the point guard would miss the rest of the postseason with a ruptured left quad. "Definitely praying for Tony, me and my family definitely are. I really enjoyed the challenge this series with Tony. Pushed me to be locked in each and every game cause I know the capabilities he has on a game of basketball, so it's unfortunate."
Parker went down in the fourth quarter of the Spurs 121-96 win in game two Wednesday night, and an MRI confirmed the worst. Before the injury, Parker scored 18 points on 13 shots, and averaged 16.3 points per game on 53 percent shooting in the playoffs. Even with his regular scoring average at its lowest point since his rookie season a decade in a half ago, the Rockets know this is a major loss for San Antonio.
He's been a staple in their organization for so long," forward Trevor Ariza said. "He's done so many things for them in the playoffs, throughout the regular season, just him not being there is going to be a huge hole for them."
Parker has played in 221 straight playoff games, so when the Spurs take the Toyota Center floor for game three Friday night, It will be the first time since May 27, 2001 they will do so in the playoffs without Parker. San Antonio lost by 29 points that night in Los Angeles, which completed a Western Conference Finals sweep.
"It sucks to see somebody go down that way especially for what he brings to their team," Ariza said. "I don't know how you replace that. I'm not saying that they don't have good enough players to step in, but what he brought to that team, I think it's unmatched."
Having competed against him for much of Parker's 15-year NBA career, there are very people in the NBA that understand his value as much as Rockets head coach Mike D'Antoni, and he said that he hated to see the future hall of famer go down, even though it helps his team's chances of advancing to the Western Conference Finals.
"I hate it for Tony," he said. "He's a great guy, not a good guy, he's a great guy, and that's tough. You hate to see that with anybody, especially being that serious, but having said that, they still have plenty, and Patty (Mills) will run it I'm sure, then we'll see what they do. They might just stay big, or they could go with another little guy."
Mills played 22 minutes a game this season, the most he's played in his eight year career, but the question that won't get answered until the game actually starts is what do the Spurs do when 28-year old Aussie goes to the bench. Head coach Gregg Popovich could elect to play without a point guard, and give the ball handling duties to one of his wings or he could elect to hand the keys to the Spurs offense to rookie point guard Dejounte Murray. The 29th pick of last year's draft started eight games this season, but he's logged just 23 minutes in the playoffs. Murray didn't play against the Rockets this season, but if he gets the call, Beverley will be ready for him.
"We have a great coaching staff and they do a great job of scouting, so we know all their guards, we know all their bigs," he said. "Being a professional, I have to be familiar with everybody and I have been."
Regardless of what the Spurs do, and who the Spurs decide to play, Beverley knows they won't just roll over because of one injury.
"They're a machine, you know how Pop is. One person falls down, the next person steps up."

How Two Licensed Marijuana Growers Came to Be Charged With Child Abuse|
Joseph Daniel Lightfoot and Amber Brooke Wildenstein have a license to grow marijuana inside their home on South Williams Street near East Vassar Avenue. But after police showed up at the house in early June on a report of domestic violence, both are now facing one count of child abuse.
9News reports that the charges come after police investigated and discovered the couple was growing marijuana in the same home where they are raising three children, ages 7, 9, and 11.
Investigators say the charges pertain to a Colorado law that states, in part, that "a person commits child abuse, if, in the presence of a child, or on the premises where a child is found, or where a child resides, the person knowingly engages in the manufacture or attempted manufacture of a controlled substance" (via 7News). Lightfoot and Wildenstein were released on $50,000 bond each and will appear in court later this month.
Meanwhile, the makers of marijuana-infused goodies, such as brownies, could end up in a legal pickle under a new law. Denver doesn't have an infused-product manufacturer license, meaning the only operations that can legally make edibles are dispensaries themselves, writes Westword.

Excerpt: More than century of planning has brought Arizona to this point, starting with the Salt River Project and decades of arduous negotiations that led to a supply of Colorado River water. So have the landmark Groundwater Management Act of 1980 and a system of banking some of the state's Colorado River allotment in aquifers.
Excerpt: If the Colorado River's flow continues to suffer, the U.S. Department of the Interior could declare a shortage as early as 2017. Under the agreement that established the CAP, Arizona's rights to the Colorado would take a hit before California loses a drop, triggering conservation steps that include reducing delivery to irrigated farms that use the majority of Arizona's water supply.
Excerpt: "When Arizonans can unquestionably turn on the tap and get water without question, we're doing our job," she said. "We don't want our customers to have to think about whether there will be water or not."
As for Prescott, the plans to import water have stalled - some believe because of a ballot measure limiting capital outlay to $40 million-voter-approved pieces, while others say it comes down to agreements with SRP or mitigating impacts on the Verde River, among other challenges.
Excerpt: Since 2008, Tucson has required plumbing in new homes to allow homeowners to set up gray-water systems to reuse water from bathroom sinks, showers and tubs as well as washing machines to water plants and lawns. Noting that a third of household wastewater typically can be reused as gray water, the city also offers a $1,000 rebate to homeowners installing permanent gray-water systems.
Excerpt: "We need to become much more efficient and creative at how we reuse," he said. "We need to recycle what we have multiple times and do it in the lowest-energy, highest-productive way."
Excerpt: The gray-water system at Reid Park Zoo's Conservation Learning Center complements a catchment system through which rain that hits the roof is used in its toilets, reducing the use of potable water inside by about half. Both systems tie into the zoo's overall conservation efforts, said Vivian VanPeenen, a zoo spokeswoman.
"The practice of conserving water and other natural resources is definitely effective for the zoo and the species we care for," she said.
Excerpt: It is a complex calculation, but at the most fundamental level this much is true: The amount of water needed to have a lush, green lawn in Phoenix would yield a substantially higher water bill for a homeowner in Tucson.
Excerpt: As leaders ponder the long-term future of Arizonas water supply, Hunting and others say that raising water prices, balanced against the fact that people must have water to survive, is an option for encouraging conservation and helping people better appreciate the true value of water.
Water is heavily subsidized and way too cheap, said Sandy Bahr, director of the Sierra Clubs Grand Canyon Chapter. Because of that it is not valued.
Excerpt: These options would help fill a gap between water supply and demand that Tannler said may not be possible to address through conservation alone.
Conservation certainly helps, but there may be a limit, he said.
Michael J. Lacey, director of the Arizona Department of Water Resources, said in order to bridge an anticipated gap in water supply Arizona will need to start making plans that will manifest in the next 30 to 40 years.
Everyone will be asked to shoulder some of the solution, he said.
Excerpt: Farmers, cities and power plant operators could soon be paid to cut their use of the Colorado River under a new interstate program aimed at keeping more water in Lake Mead and Lake Powell.
The four largest communities fed by the Colorado plan to pour millions of dollars into a fund to help farmers and industrial operations pay for efficiency improvements and conservation measures to cut their river water use.
Excerpt: The water authority board signed off on the conservation concept and the $2 million on April 17. Entsminger hopes to see a final agreement among the agencies and the federal government within a month or so. The first conservation projects could be funded as early as this fall, he said.
Excerpt: Were right on the verge of having to extend all of our launch ramps, but we expect to be able to get through this summer, Vanover said. Its important for people to know that no matter what happens there will still be access to Lake Mead.
Excerpt: Wichita Falls could soon become the first in the country where half of the drinking water comes directly from wastewater.
Excerpt: Mayor Glenn Barham says three years of extreme drought have changed life for 104,000 people living in Wichita Falls, which is about 140 miles northwest of Dallas.
(Theres) no outside irrigation whatsoever with potable water. Car washes are closed one day a week. If you drain your pool to do maintenance you arent allowed to fill it, he explained.
Excerpt: Nix says the extra treatment will eliminate unwanted minerals and pathogens like cryptosporidium and giardia.
We just dont have time to put the water out in a body of water, a wetlands, or lake and allow nature to take its course, Nix said. Inside the treatment plant, we speed those processes up so rather than wait several weeks for UV rays from the sun to disinfect or kill bacteria we do it in the plant using chlorine. It takes a matter of minutes to do it instead of weeks.
Excerpt: Officials in the community about 60 miles from the Grand Canyon's South Rim have clamped down on water use and declared a crisis amid a drought that is quickly drying up nearby reservoirs and forcing the city to pump its only two wells to capacity.
Excerpt: Officials in Williams jumped straight to the most severe restrictions after receiving only about 6 inches of precipitation from October to April about half of normal levels and a bleak forecast that doesn't include much rain. City leaders acknowledge the move is extreme but say it's the only way to make the city has enough water to survive.
Excerpt: "We don't have enough water to waste it," said Evans, president of the Northern Arizona Municipal Water Users Association.
In Williams, Moore recently looked out at the reservoirs surrounding town in anticipation of a monsoon season that could help replenish them.
"We know in due time, the lakes will fill back up, the snow will come," he said.
Excerpt: Water use in Kingman and Golden Valley is outstripping supply, according to hydrologists with the U.S. Geological Survey.
Excerpt: Annual water demand in Golden Valley from the Sacramento Valley Basin exceeded yearly supplies by about 2,400 acre-feet, and annual water demands in Kingman from the Hualapai Basin exceeded yearly supplies by about 5,600 acre-feet, said a USGS report presented to the Mohave County Board of Supervisors Monday.
Excerpt: The onus to resolving the county's water issue rests with the Board of Supervisors, said state Sen. Kelli Ward, R-Lake Havasu City, who attended Monday's meeting.
Excerpt: The board tasked County Supervisor Mike Hendrix to work with the U.S. Geological Survey to determine what that additional study would specifically require, and to present his findings to the board at a later date.
Excerpt: The four largest cities that get their drinking water from the Colorado River are gearing up to pilot an innovative conservation scheme that pays farmers, industries and municipalities to reduce their use of the rivers water.
Excerpt: The fund would pay for voluntary reductions in water use whether by fallowing farm fields, installing more efficient irrigation systems, recycling industrial supplies, or other means but the savings would benefit the basin as a whole by increasing reservoir storage and thereby mitigating shortages.
Excerpt: By collaboratively creating an incentive for basin-wide conservation, the big four urban water users and the Bureau of Reclamation have an opportunity to bring more resilience and adaptability to the drought-stricken, overtapped Colorado River.
Excerpt: Now that bounty is threatened by a crisis of geological proportions: The land is sinking crippling the regions irrigation and flood control infrastructure and damaging aquifers that are buffers against climate change.
Nature, though, is not to blame. This problem is self-inflicted, driven by the frontier-style exploitation of the last unregulated resource in California: groundwater.
Excerpt: Todays drama is only the latest chapter in a long-running saga of sinking. Three generations ago, so much groundwater was pumped from aquifers that half the valley sank like a giant pie crust, sagging 28 feet near Mendota and inflicting damage to irrigation canals, pipelines, bridges, roads and other infrastructure.
Excerpt: Obviously, nobody wants to be regulated any more than we are, Michael said. But I think maybe we have to have somebody step in. People are probably going to be upset that I would say something like that. We have to find ways to protect the resource that we have.
There are all kinds of surface regulations (for water) and youve got this Wild West underneath the ground. The chickens are coming home to roost, unfortunately, Michael said.
Excerpt: The severe risks of an extended drought in the Colorado River Basin a shutdown of hydropower generation, functionally empty lakes, and restrictions on water use are forcing the basins seven states to consider unprecedented changes in how they manage a scarce resource.
Excerpt: Weve never had to do this before because we never planned for this degree of low water storage, Don Ostler, executive director of the Upper Colorado River Commission, an administrative body, told Circle of Blue. We want to plan for extreme hydrology the likes of which we have never seen.
Excerpt: Were certainly having discussions about existing drought and contingency planning for an ongoing sustained drought, said Colby Pellegrino, who handles Colorado River issues for Southern Nevada Water Authority, the states largest water utility. But were not to a point where we can say what those options will be.
Excerpt: More than century of planning has brought Arizona to this point, starting with the Salt River Project and decades of arduous negotiations that led to a supply of Colorado River water. So have the landmark Groundwater Management Act of 1980 and a system of banking some of the states Colorado River allotment in aquifers.
Excerpt: In January, an Arizona Department of Water Resources report pointed to the potential for a long-term imbalance between available water and demands over the next century. It said that Arizona will need to develop additional water supplies over the next 25 to 100 years to keep pace with growth.
Excerpt: What we need right now is a deeper understanding by policymakers about what our situation is, he said. I want someone who will look at the complex solutions, not the short easy ones.
Pickard, the CAP board president, said this election year will test which politicians are ready to make Arizonas water future a priority.
When Arizonans can unquestionably turn on the tap and get water without question, were doing our job, she said. We dont want our customers to have to think about whether there will be water or not.
Excerpt: Ideas, tips, resources and events to help you conserve water and get more info about Arizona's most precious resource, WATER!
Excerpt: Potential water shortages have been in the news lately, reminding us desert-dwellers that we need to use water wisely. While others talk about the need to conserve, the cities of the Arizona Municipal Water Users Association walk the walk, implementing comprehensive programs to shrink demand, with plans in place to manage drought and preserve our water supplies for future generations.
Excerpt: Maybe you've heard of Water Use It Wisely. AMWUA cities developed this program to help our residents to conserve, and more than 400 communities and organizations across North America have adopted it. Our cities also implement 305 management practices to reduce water use, including water rates to encourage conservation, rebates for converting turf to water-efficient landscaping, and water-saving plumbing retrofits for low-income residents.
Wise water use is the key to desert living. The AMWUA cities are committed to the task.
Excerpt: A river bled dry by thirsty cities and farms in two countries will flow once again through northern Mexico later this month in an international experiment in habitat restoration.
Excerpt: Under the watchful eyes of researchers from a bi-national scientific team, the initial flood from Morelos Dam a mile south of where California, Arizona and Mexico adjoin will build and then ebb through May 18. The goal is to spur growth along the river channel, which historically harbored native, flood-adapted willow and cottonwood trees.
Excerpt: The 105,000 acre-feet to be released during the pulse represents less than 1 percent of the rivers flow in an average year, but it should be enough to reconnect the Colorado to the sea temporarily.
If advocates hope to restore the flow for good, they will have to persuade users to consume less and cooperate even more.
Excerpt: Wichita Falls water users should have recycled waste water coming to their homes and businesses in May.
Excerpt: Today was the last of 40 days of testing required by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality to ensure the water is safe to drink.
All preliminary tests show the recycled water is safe to drink. Officials at the Cypress Treatment Plant say so far the project has had very few glitches.
Excerpt: If they say the water is safe, then officials will take 7 and a half million gallons of the water that gets flushed down toilets and washed down drains to the River Road Waste Water Plant, then pump it back to the Cypress Water Treatment Plant. That water will go through 4 treatment process, turning it into 5 million gallons of recycled water, blending it with 5 million gallons of water from Lake Arrowhead and Kickapoo for a total of ten million gallons coming from the treatment plant to faucets.
Excerpt: Meeting the drinking-water needs of Arizonas future population will force residents to live with trade-offs. But as more people move here and are born here, they may not have a choice, state officials say.
Excerpt: Instead of pushing big water projects, the state should look at reducing water demand and seriously consider whether the growth envisioned in the report is achievable, desirable or sustainable, the Sierra Club said.
Excerpt: The water study was not an academic exercise it was designed to spur action, said Lacey, the state water director. The agency hopes for broader public participation in water issues than anytime since Arizonas landmark Groundwater Management Act passed in 1980, he said.
Excerpt: When it comes to water in America, this truth is self-evident: We are guzzlers from sea to shining sea. Nowhere, though, are the effects of our thirst as visible and self-destructive as they are in the Southwest, the fastest-growing and driest region of the country, where just one long and lonely river, the Colorado, must slake the needs of seven states.
Excerpt: It's not seriously disputed that the region's water shortfall is large and will become worse, even in the absence of drought. Likewise, it is widely acknowledged that increasingly strict conservation measures will soon become the norm in the region. What is striking, however, is the reluctance of state officials, builders, and others to acknowledge two more truths that the weight of evidence points to: first, that the relentless growth the Southwest has become accustomed to over the last half-century is unsustainable; second, that either in a planned way executed over time to cushion shock or disruptively after more years of whistling past the graveyard, growth of population and industry will slow and stop.
Excerpt: "The Western dream," he says, "is going to come with an asterisk that says 'P.S. Bring your own water.'"
Excerpt: The drought that has been afflicting most of the Western states for 13 years may be a megadrought, and the likelihood is high that this century could see a multidecade dry spell like nothing else seen for 1,000 years, according to research presented at the American Geophysical Union Fall Meeting last week.
Excerpt: He said that the chances of a widespread multidecade megadrought are high in the worst-case scenario, but he quoted University of Arizona geosciences professor Jonathan Overpeck to characterize the chances of megadrought in less severe scenarios: Its extremely non-negligible, the risk of prolonged multidecadal megadrought.
The bottom line: The picture looks like were going to have to take this seriously, Ault said.
Excerpt: The challenges in the Colorado River basin are large, but the good news is that cost effective solutions are available and already being tested in different parts of the basin. Implementing these solutions now will be good not only for the regions iconic Colorado River, but also for the regions economy.
The reality is this economic engine and lifeline of the West is running out of fuel. The Colorado River literally dries to a trickle before it even reaches the sea. Increasing populations, extended drought and uncertain future weather patterns undermine a secure water future for the region.
Excerpt: A more efficient water future will not only create a more secure water supply, but will also provide a boost to the economy. Farmers can increase productivity and use less water by upgrading aging irrigation systems. And they can reap financial rewards from voluntarily sharing some of their saved water with cities and rivers.
Excerpt: During presentations this week at the annual fall meeting of the American Geophysical Union, researchers at the University of California, Irvine, announced that the regions most visible signs of drought shrinking reservoirs are dwarfed by groundwater losses.
Excerpt: From March 2005 to June 2013, the Colorado River Basin lost 5.7 cubic kilometers (4.6 million acre-feet) of water per year, or more than 47 cubic kilometers (38 million acre-feet) over the 100-month study period. The cumulative losses are equal to 1.3 times the storage capacity of Lake Mead, the nations largest reservoir. Most of the water losses are attributed to groundwater pumping, mainly for irrigated agriculture.
Excerpt: If the federal governments river-flow forecast holds true, the lower release from Powell will set up the Lower Basin for a shortage that could be declared as early as 2015 or 2016. Such a declaration is based on how much water is in Lake Mead. Arizona and Nevada would be the only states to endure water restrictions at this first shortage tier. Moreover, water managers in Arizona told Circle of Blue in August that they would weather cuts in water deliveries from the river by pumping more groundwater.
Excerpt: There's a better than 50 percent chance of an official water shortage being declared in 2016 for the Lower Colorado River Basin as a result of the drought that has gripped the river's watershed for the last 14 years.
Excerpt: That's if the current trend continues, Daniel Bunk, a hydrologist for the Lower Colorado Region with the the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation, told the Colorado River Citizens Forum Wednesday during an update on the status of the Colorado River Basin.
He noted that 2000 to 2013 was the driest 14-year period in more than 100 years of historical record. And based on tree ring studies, it is the fourth or fifth driest period in the past 1,200 years.
Excerpt: If a shortage is declared by the Secretary of the Interior, Arizona would bear by far the biggest impact, according to an agreement in 2007 that established shortage sharing guidelines. Under the guidelines, Arizona, which is allocated 2.8 million acre-feet of Colorado River water a year, would receive 320,000 acre-feet less water. Nevada would receive 13,000 acre-feet less water and Mexico 50,000 acre-feet less. California would not be impacted.
Excerpt: Population growth, drought and increasing demand are challenging the Colorado River and threatening Western economies and outdoor lifestyles.
"In order to meet those challenges, we have to acknowledge that the current management and current use of the river is unsustainable. We've got to start from that point," said Udall, addressing the first Business of Water Corporate Leaders Summit in Denver, hosted by Protect the Flows, a network of almost 1,000 businesses advocating for protection of the 1,450-mile river.
Excerpt: Every speaker offered concrete strategies for not just protecting water but educating consumers on its value. George Wendt urges the 3,000 people a year who float his OARS rafts down the Colorado River to support conservation. Broomfield's WhiteWave Foods makes sure consumers know its plant-based drinks require 77 percent less water per half gallon than cow milk. MGM Resorts International is fighting to include water conservation in energy-saving metrics that often focus only on reducing carbon impact.
Excerpt: "Conserving the great outdoors is a long-term investment in jobs that can't be outsourced," said Udall, who suggested that a balance between increased conservation and wastewater treatment, expanding storage and recharging groundwater supplies would alleviate pressure on the Colorado River.
Excerpt: Step 1 Admit there is a problem
According to the United Nations Food and Agriculture Organization, Water use has been growing at more than the rate twice of population increase in the last century
By 2025, 1 800 million people will be living in countries or regions with absolute water scarcity, and two-thirds of the world population could be under stress conditions
Excerpt: Step 2 Educate yourself
One of our favorite regular guests on the Green Divas Radio Show is Jessica Arinella from the What You Can Do video series. She is also a water hero. She has produced several very educational short videos that help us understand not only why, but how to help conserve and create healthier water supplies. Heres a link to a Green Divas Radio Show featuringJessica Arinella talking about water conservation.
I would also recommend the UN page on water statistics.
Excerpt: By participating in the Conserve to Enhance pilot program, Mier says she found an easy and fun way to restore the environment.
Excerpt: The program helped her and her housemates get their daily water use down to 30 gallons per person. The average Tucsonan uses between 90 and 100 gallons a day.
She saved $5 a month, which she donated to Conserve to Enhance projects.
The pilot program, which ends this year, kept track of her water savings, sent a monthly newsletter on water-saving tips and offered educational events and workshops.
Excerpt: Sewage systems around the world are plagued by the problem of odour and corrosion due to hydrogen sulfide gas from the anaerobic decomposition of human waste and waste water.
The traditional sewage system relies on masses of water to flush through waste and avoid such problems, but this doesn't always happen.
Excerpt: If everyone installed rainwater tanks, thereby reducing their use of potable water by 40 per cent, Marleni's model found the odour level would increase just a little to 5.1 parts per million, and the associated hydrogen sulfide would knock 6 years off the life of the pipes due to corrosion.
But if everyone shifted to greywater reuse this would give the "worst scenario", says Marleni.
The reuse of waste water from the bathroom and laundry to water the garden and flush toilets would reduce potable water consumption by 70 per cent, resulting in a much greater impact on odour and corrosion.
Excerpt: "There are many problems with sewers and low flows are one of them," says White.
"These are long-standing problems despite water efficiency and it's true that water efficiency could make it worse; but then if it rains you get the opposite problem."
White says decentralised treatment of sewage, using pumped smaller-diameter systems that are well sealed and have storage and better controls on flows and loads will help the problems we face with sewers.
As will reducing the biological and nutrient loads on sewers through what we put in them.
Excerpt: When you think about Thanksgiving, you might envision a turkey dinner, or spending time with your family. However, do you ever think about water conservation?
1) Thaw frozen food in your refrigerator or microwave and not under running water.
2) Rinse vegetables in a sink or basin filled with water. A running faucet uses three to five gallons of water per minute.
3) Do not dump fats, oils or grease from cooking turkey down the drain. It can clog your plumbing system and harm the environment. Weld Countys Household Hazardous Waste program collects cooking oil on Tuesdays and Thursdays between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m., except on holidays like Thanksgiving. (The Weld County Household Hazardous Waste Facility is located at 1311 N. 17th Avenue in Greeley.)
4) Use your garbage disposal sparingly. A better option is to compost kitchen waste. (The City of Greeley and Weld County have developed a handbook to help people get started composting.)
5) Presoak utensils and dishes in a sink filled with water rather than in running water.
6) Only run full loads in the dishwasher. This shouldn't be too difficult with large family meals, although you may have to run your dishwasher more than once.
7) If you wash your dishes by hand, do not leave the water running for rinsing. If you have two sinks, fill one with soapy water and one with rinse water. If you only have one sink, gather the washed dishes in a dish rack and rinse them with a spray device or a pan full of hot water.
Excerpt: Upon closer examination, right there on the outside of the bag were 15 ways we all can use water more wisely.
One might think these are all common-sense suggestions and you would be correct. But with San Angelo having less than two years of water remaining, anything and everything each of us can do will make a difference. They include:
Sweep it away. Use a broom, not the water hose, to clean sidewalks and driveways.
Slow the flow. Install a water-saving showerhead.
Excerpt: Nothing earth-shattering in the above recommendations, but collectively they add up to saving not only our water, but also our money.
We all know about the little boy throwing back into the ocean one of several starfish he found on the beach, and telling the inquisitive stranger that it makes a difference at least for that one starfish. Imagine what each of us can do, as individuals and as a caring community, by becoming better stewards of our precious water here in the Concho Valley.
Excerpt: First, San Antonio has the most effective water conservation program in the nation. We have become so efficient with water use that representatives from cities around the globe have traveled here to learn how we manage customer demand.
Distinct from drought restrictions, which help us manage pumping during a drought, water conservation is a year-round effort that has become a valuable part of our city's culture.
Excerpt: Finally, we take seriously the ramifications of imposing every-other-week watering restrictions on the community. We will always ensure that Stage 3 is imposed only when other alternatives do not exist.
This kind of analysis is continually conducted at SAWS, accounting even for infrastructure maintenance or emergency pump failures when they may arise. So I couldn't object more to assertions in recent headlines that we are gambling on the prospect of rainfall.
Excerpt: A continued commitment to water conservation and investment in new supplies must remain a priority for San Antonio. Thoughtful decisions and successful management will continue to yield benefits in the future.
Excerpt: La Plata County saw those same images up close as the Animas River shrunk to near-record lows and crops shriveled in parched fields. Many farmers in the western part of the county faced a summer without irrigation water.
But because of water rights that date back to 1882, Durangos water kept flowing as usual, pumping an average of 128.5 million gallons per month to our thirsty city. That water keeps taps flowing, washing machines running and lawn sprinklers sputtering.
Excerpt: While water conservation can reduce consumption to a point, a large chunk of the citys water isnt reaching paying customers. About 20 percent of the citys treated water is unaccounted for, stemming from meter inaccuracies, unmetered water and leaking pumps.
Excerpt: In order to meet the coming infrastructure challenge nationwide were going to have recover the appropriate value we place on our water systems, Kail said. When we truly understand that value, well be in a much better place to invest in the systems in a way thats necessary to maintain them at levels we have come to expect.
Excerpt: A recent article by a UC Irvine researcher argues that more of the water that normally runs off into storm drains should be repurposed and used to water plants and flush toilets.
Lead author Stanley Grant said so-called graywater and wastewater from washing dishes or showering, and rainwater that normally runs into storm drains, can be used at times when using water of drinkable quality is not required.
Reusing graywater can reduce a household's water consumption and its bill by 50% or more, he said.
Excerpt: Locally, the Mesa Consolidated Water District, which serves Costa Mesa, parts of Newport Beach, John Wayne Airport and the Orange County Fairgrounds, provides rebates for smart irrigation and makes house calls for those interested in saving water around their home, according to Communications Manager Stacy Taylor.
It also boasts one of the highest rates of consumer water conservation in the county, she said.
"As part of the district's mission, [Mesa Water] supports developing local and reliable sources of water, including groundwater treatment, recycled water and conservation," Taylor said. "Becoming more efficient with how we use water today is a key component to maintaining a reliable water supply for tomorrow."
Excerpt: Saving water is particularly important during the summer, when the days are hot and the rainfall sporadic at best. It's even more so this year as much of the country faces an unrelenting drought. If you want to cut your water bills or just do your part to conserve a precious resource, here are a few smart tips to reduce water usage around the house.

About the blog / Contributors
Themelobackpedal.com is a blog dedicated to basketball on all levels. Although articles and posts will generally focus on the NBA, several pieces will discuss collegiate and high school level basketball.
Look for articles focusing on the NBA Draft and college recruiting, which have been compiled from research and outside sources, to be updated frequently.
Here's a little info about the contributors:
Andrew is a student at Syracuse University, where he's studying English and Journalism, and is a writer and editor for The Daily Orange.
He follows high school, college and professional basketball very closely, and does most of his writing on events such as the NBA Draft, college recruiting and the NCAA tournament.
He considers himself a Big East homer with an East-Coast-Bias mentality. Being a Syracuse student from the Washington D.C. area, with a brother who graduated from Notre Dame and another who lives in NYC, it's easy to understand why.
Christiantj lives in Brooklyn, NY with his wonderful wife and two genius kids. He's a life long Utah Jazz fan, but would love to add the Knicks to his rolodex. If only they would rid themselves of 80% of their roster, fire the coach/GM and replace the owner with a sane person. [Editors note: they have fired the GM/coach and replaced him with two quality professionals, so perhaps their on their way …]
Some things he loves about basketball: the pick and roll, Larry Bird, UConn beating Duke in 1999, fights, The Big Ticket, The Answer, Pack City, Stockton's cheap shots, the Garbage Men, Sir Charles, hard picks, playing 2 on 2 with my bro's, Iverson crossing up Jordan, Walton, Fear the Turtle, Jerry Sloan…..and did I mention fights?
Some things he dislikes about basketball: The Lakers, Isiah Thomas, the Lakers, big fat stiffs (Big Country), Billy Packer, Starbury, the Bulls dominance in the '90s, Pippen as one of the 50 Greatest, Sir Charles, whining to the refs, Duke and UNC, John Hollinger's arrogance, Walton, Stern post- Palace brawl, MJ's comeback with the Wizards and Nash winning back to back MVP's.
Colatina knows just enough about basketball to make wise, smart alecky comments about the NBA. His name has about as little to do with basketball as it possibly can.

When I want to make love I think directly about my wife… and she also thinks about me… and through telepathy we make love, that's all.
—From Kempinski, by Neil Beloufa
In Neil Beloufa's fourteen-minute film Kempinski, residents of Bamako, Mali, speak about the future in the present tense. In Untitled, another short film, a family living on the outskirts of Algiers imagines the lives of the terrorists who once occupied their modernist home — where they slept, what they ate and drank, how they went about their exercise routines.
The twenty six year-old Paris-based artist mines the speculative, creating situations in which characters imagine things that may or may not have happened. Having set the stage, he steps aside, allowing people and their stories to take on lives of their own. What ensues is very often unexpected, if not bizarre.
Take Kempinski. Beloufa films ordinary Malians as they calmly communicate their visions of the future, often as monologues. One by one, they describe a surreal earth populated by animals, telepathic lovemaking, and the ability to travel at warp speed:
We do not need cars, nor planes… We move through light, through sound… through our ideas.
From here I can get to the North Pole in half a second.
Since the planet on which men live is saturated, I am the only man who lives with hundreds of oxen.
The effect is eerie and dystopic and compounded by the fact that the speakers are filmed in the dark, their faces lit up like jack-o'-lanterns by fluorescent bulbs. Occasionally the camera cuts to towering electric floodlights in the distance. The floodlights emit a haunting chirp, which serves as the film's soundtrack. In a sense, Kempinski is a series of urban campfire songs, stories in which the narrator of the ghost story is also the ghost.
From a distance, the "Africa of the future" may seem like an oxymoron, but Beloufa manages to evince it while pushing back on our expectations. He admits that most of the Malians he interviewed were well versed in the stuff of standard Hollywood sci-fi. (Many of them cited Minority Report.) But rather than delivering pre-fab ideas about the future, their visions remain idiosyncratic — even, you might say, African. Kempinski reminds us that we may have all watched the same movies, but we don't necessarily dream the same dreams. As the Malians narrate the future-present, making it up as they go along, they reveal the magic of science fiction — or perhaps simply fiction — as a strange form of truth.
In Untitled, the Algerian family returns to their home to find that the intruders have left it in perfect condition. The camera captures half-obscured backs of heads and silhouettes of family members as they process traces of their ghost-intruders ("They didn't live a family-like life, where you stay in the living room, turn on the lights, and serve dinner"). You can just barely discern that the house is actually Potemkin; as a draft blows through, a view of lush tropical trees reveals itself as nothing more than a poster glued onto a flimsy cardboard door that flaps open and closed. Like the floodlights in Kempinski, the peekaboo presence of the low-fi set refers back to the circumstances of the filming and, ultimately, like all the individual stories that don't add up, its constructed nature.
At the moment, Beloufa is shooting a film about the real estate industry in Paris. While casting about for a studio, he grew obsessed with the diverse and slippery narratives agents would summon up, hawking homes as if putting forth cakes on a tray. One agent might emphasize handy elevator access or nearby restaurants. Another, the quality of local schools.
Like Kempinski, which revolves around a simple question (Can you describe the future in the present tense?), the new project's point of departure is static (Can you find me a home?). A customer comes in. An agent tries to make a sale. The furniture and the interiors serve as equally static totems, while occasionally a view from the window reveals the Eiffel Tower or some other heavily coded presence. The shifting dialogues are left to occupy the space. We watch one after the other after the other, and it slowly becomes clear that the home is a blank slate on which any domestic fantasy can be projected. The story is never exactly the same, and yet each time, it's as true as ever.
