Over 50 Mumbai mediapersons Wednesday launched a one-day relay hunger strike protesting the Maharashtra government's refusal to hand over the probe into the murder of journalist Jyotirmoy Dey to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI).
Braving the heavy rains lashing the metropolis, journalists started arriving at the Mumbai Marathi Patrakar Sangh for the relay hunger strike.
"More are likely to join later in the day," Mumbai Press Club president Gurbir Singh said.
Patrakar Halla Virodhi Kruti Samiti (PHVKS) president S.M. Deshmukh said similar token strikes have been organised in various parts of the state.
Mumbai Press Club secretary Sunil Shivdasani: "The Chief Minister (Prithviraj Chavan) refused to consider our demand for resignation of Home Minister R.R. Patil and suspension of city Police Commissioner Arup Patnaik. In view of this, the (PHVKS) has decided to continue the agitation by resorting to a relay hunger strike from today (Wednesday)."
"While the Mumbai agitation will continue, similar token relay hunger strikes have also been organised in Pune, Aurangabad, Nagpur and several districts across the state," Deshmukh told IANS.
Following the protest march by over 500 journalists Monday, the state government assured to bring in a law to protect journalists, but refused to hand over the Dey killing probe to the CBI.
On Tuesday, Chavan for the second time rejected journalists' demand that the probe into Dey's murder be handed over to the federal investigative agency.
However, Chavan hinted that the Mumbai Police have made headway into the case.
Dey, a Mid-Day journalist who used to report on the underworld, was shot dead by four unidentified motorcycle-borne assailants as he was riding his bike near his residence in Powai June 11.

April 19, 2009
I picked the Celtics to win this series in seven games, I meant it, and I still think that's the most rational guess.
The only way around that, the way that sees Chicago taking this series (in however many games), is if the Bulls play to their full potential. Or, close to it, I suppose. This involves coaching decisions that are more or less spot-on, smart'ish play, shots that go in at the expected rate (nobody can have a week-long shooting slump), and, yeah, let's re-mention the need for playoff-worthy coaching.
Now, should most of these things fall in line most of the time, the Bulls win. And they wouldn't win over a Boston team playing through its own week-long slump. If Boston plays as expected, and they didn't play as expected on Saturday (Ray Allen's poor marks from the field, Paul Pierce missing a potentially game-winning free throw), the Bulls can still beat them if everything goes as it should for Chicago.
The problem with the Bulls is that, all year, nothing has gone as it should. While still ending up in the right place, actually, but we'll get to that in a second.
It's just that, with this team's initial 82 games to learn from, it's hard to bank on everything clicking for Chicago for a long enough stretch. I think it will click long enough to take it to May 2nd, in Boston, but that's about it. One bum night in Chicago on Thursday, and this series is Boston's all over again.
An odd thing? All year, Chicago has gone crazy with the ups and downs, and yet things evened out (quite literally) to a .500 record, something that approximated what was to be expected given a young roster, a rookie head coach, plenty of injuries, and two big mid-season trades. In a vacuum, they're right where they should be. Knowing the team as we do, watching every game -- yeah, they're right where they should be, but they didn't have to go about it in this way to get there.
So, yes, they beat the C's. But considering Kevin Garnett's absence, the missed free throw, and Ray Allen's unlikely turn from the field (1-12 shooting), they should have beaten Boston. This isn't to dump on the Bulls. This is just how the game works. I enjoyed the hell out of it, and it was fun when it wasn't scary (like, a 20 year-old rookie at the line, having to win the game while 18,000-plus yell things at him), but we should also be aware that the Bulls are this good. We should expect this.
And being that good means playing up to par, just about every time out. And if Chicago is getting around to that in mid-to-late April, then we could see Boston go out in the first round. And nobody should be surprised.
That said, given the track record, I'm holding off on that prediction. It's just the smart thing to do. Like whole grains.
The game was brilliant. Easily the best opening game of the playoffs that I've ever taken in, and that was a sentiment echoed by Hubie Brown during his call of the Dallas/San Antonio game later on Saturday.
Straightaway, Derrick Rose had it. He deferred a little too much late (just because Brad Miller is open, it doesn't mean you're not the best option, Derrick), but 36 points and 11 assists? I don't care if he needed 49 minutes to get there. I don't mind that he turned it over five times. I care that he had major issues defending Rajon Rondo, and problems keeping Rondo off the boards, but that was easily overcome by his sterling touch around the rim, and spot-on jump shot duty. What a game. What a performance.
The rest of the contest had to be one big catharsis for Bulls fans, and it sort of went that way for me. Early in the season, the Bulls turned in this stinkbomb against the Celtics, one that saw Tyrus Thomas clang jumper after jumper. Trillions appeared to watch that game, because every Thomas jumper that followed in 2008-09 (up to and including this game, whether or not the shot went in) seemed to be met with a chortle from whoever was calling the contest.
"Not what Vinny Del Negro drew up! Not what the Bulls had in mind out of that huddle! Not really in his repertoire! I am not going to pay a lot for this muffler!"
And, yes, Tyrus took a lot of them. But he also has a good stroke, no post game due to his undersized, skinny frame, and a free throw percentage (78 percent on the year, up nearly 20 points since his rookie year, which denotes quite a bit of work in an empty gym) that usually lends itself to a good touch from the perimeter.
But because the coin landed the wrong way over and over for Thomas on that Friday night, the stigma stuck. There's a reason for that, because he misses a ton. But he's been getting better, month by month, and as someone who is (you may have heard this) partial to this team, I have no problem with about 80 percent of the jumpers the guy puts up.
So his six points in overtime weren't much of a surprise. Though his last made jumper was a bad attempt, it went in (his last missed jumper was a good shot, so that sort of evened out), and the digits were desperately needed.
Beyond that, Ben Gordon had some bad luck with a few spin-outs, but he also kept stem the Boston tide in the fourth quarter, and his 20 points on 17 shots (five assists, zero turnovers) weren't that bad. Brad Miller was bad, bad decisions, bad play on both ends, though he did pull in 12 rebounds. Why Miller and Tim Thomas again played alongside each other early in the second quarter, even if the Bulls did play well as a team, is beyond me. They pulled in rebounds, but Boston killed Chicago on the glass during that short turn. This is the playoffs. Those few minutes at the beginning of the second quarter count.
Joakim Noah sent the game into overtime with a bad foul on Paul Pierce to end the game, but he'll learn. He likely thought he had an easy block, but Pierce has been doing this for a decade, and it didn't turn out that way. Here's what Noah turned out, besides the bad foul: 11 points, 17 rebounds, five offensive rebounds, two assists, two turnovers in almost 45 minutes, a steal, and three blocks. I'll take it.
What Chicago can't do, from here, is sustain this. Much less relent. If they want to win this series, they have to play to their potential, and that would involve sustaining the production we saw on Saturday, while cutting down the rotation gaffes, the bad shooting, and the defensive yips.
Because Boston will be back. Pierce will be a little better, Rajon Rondo will continue to have huge games (29 points, nine rebounds, seven assists and just one turnover for Rondo, who was fantastic) if Rose still can't figure out a way to play the guy, while Ray Allen and Eddie House will not shooting 3-20 from the floor again. Chicago better be ready for that, because you know Boston will be ready to improve considerably.
Detroit's offensive punch was a little surprising early on. Cleveland is a lock down defensive team, and the Pistons' O has fallen off a cliff since Flip Saunders and Chauncey Billups left town, so seeing the Pistons put up 25 first quarter points in an incredibly slow (just 79 possessions) game seemed a bit off.
Cleveland got it together, though, and Detroit never had a clue defensively.
This is why pace-adjusted stats are important, because 102 points from Cleveland doesn't really tell the story of how great they were on Saturday. You can mention the 53 percent shooting, or the four (four!) turnovers all day, or the 23-27 mark from the free throw line. Or, you could just get used to knowing what sort of pace-adjusted stats are top of the heap, and save yourself a whole lotta words and numbers.
So, nearly 130 points per 100 possessions for Cleveland on Saturday. For comparison's sake, Portland led the NBA this year with about 114 per 100, and the Suns averaged 113.6 per 100 possessions. Cleveland was terrific, and Detroit was abysmal. And Jeff Van Gundy, man, you could feel the disgust through the cathode tube ray in your living room. He could not stand Detroit's D.
38 points, eight rebounds, seven assists, and no turnovers for LeBron James in almost 41 minutes. 41 minutes, yes, but do you know how hard it is to put up those numbers in a game this slow? Against Tayshaun Prince?
Speaking of which, Dallas managed about the same mark (130 per 100) against San Antonio on Saturday, and while we have quite a bit of respect for Dallas' offense, that's number is just through the roof. The Spurs can't be happy with just about anything that went down in Game 1.
Well, one thing. But that one thing seems to be, to me, mitigated by the loss. The "thing" being the fact that Tim Duncan looked pretty damn Tim Duncan-like, and yet it wasn't enough to make this a close game in the final few minutes. At home, no less.
The counterargument to that is to bring up the idea that these two teams know each other, front to back. That these are two veteran squads, and really, this thing is going to be close no matter what. That home court doesn't matter. That these teams are impervious to uniform colors or logos on the floor.
Which makes complete and total sense if you're just looking at this as a W/L situation, without any details. A loss is just one loss, and both teams are probably going to take one or two on the road. But when you dig a little deeper, you've got to admit, there are some troubling signs for the Spurs.
For all the talk about the Spurs supposedly falling way off defensively during the regular season, let's get real, this team was fifth in the NBA in defensive efficiency. Now, that's down from third last season and second in the NBA when they won it all back in 2007, but that's still a pretty stout year overall. And especially considering Duncan's ineffectiveness on that end down the stretch, and so many of Manu Ginobili's minutes being replaced by the hard working but ultimately step-slow Michael Finley.
About 130 points per 100 possessions? With Dirk Nowitzki sitting most of the first half? At home? No, the Mavs couldn't guard the Spurs at times, but they're supposed to be average defensively. San Antonio's issues on that end are a lot more troubling.
(On the Dirk thing, how bogus were some of those offensive fouls on Nowitzki? I'm not telling you that he didn't push off or slap Bruce Bowen away, he did, but why is it that Bowen is allowed to put two hands into Dirk as he drives? When Dirk's back is to the basket, yeah, Bowen can do his thing. But when Dirk has turned and is driving toward the goal with a dribble, he has ceased to be a post player, and deserves all the hand check calls afforded to anyone who is driving to the rim.)
Dallas was great. Josh Howard had 25 points in about 30 minutes, and his play afforded me the chance to whine about something that has bugged me for a while.
TV guys bring up how well Howard scores in the first and third quarters, as if he shrinks in the fourth, or disappears with the game on the line. That'd be a fair comment if Howard was actually on the floor during the fourth, but he rarely is. Rick Carlisle likes going with Jason Terry or Brandon Bass or some smallish combo with J.J. Barea staying on the floor, any combination of those guys plus the starters, and usually Howard is the odd man out.
And it's not because he deserves to sit out, and it doesn't mean Carlisle doesn't know what he's doing. Howard was Dallas' best player tonight, but he played just 34 seconds in the fourth quarter, and Dallas had its best run of the game. This has happened quite a few times this season. Carlisle knows what he's doing, and though Howard is streaky, this part of his scouting report is overplayed.
(And it should be pointed out that ESPN and ABC did a very, very good job on Saturday. Heaps of new stats, like the amount of Tony Parker forays into the paint, plus some damn good commentary from the usual suspects in Hubie Brown and Doris Burke. Jon Barry is solid, the play by play guys were all good; and though I had to remind Jeff Van Gundy and Mark Jackson to talk about the game they were "covering" a few times, the top trio wasn't that bad.)
Other than that, Barea (13 points, zero turnovers) was unstoppable at times, I liked Antoine Wright filling in some holes during his brief stay on the court, and Brandon Bass was solid with 14 points in 18 minutes.
Duncan had his 27 and nine, but he didn't block any shots, and he (for whatever reason, it might not be his fault) couldn't do much to stop Barea's runs toward the rim in the second and fourth quarters.
We'd be foolish to think that San Antonio can't turn this around in a hurry when the series moves to Dallas (we're all banking on it being tied, right?), and a Dallas win in Game 1 isn't surprising in and of itself.
The way they won? And by this much? That's news to me.
We warned you that Portland had been laying eggs on the offensive end all season, so I'm not surprised to see the Trail Blazers abandon their defensive principals, and allow good looks. I'm a bit surprised to see Houston, which can clang away for stretches, take advantage as efficiently as they did, but the Portland D was hardly a shocker.
What I definitely did underestimate was the impact that Houston's defense -- great, but not "league best"-great -- had on Portland's ability to put the ball in the hole.
42 percent shooting, 10 free throws made, 1-11 from behind the arc, just a miserable showing for Portland on that end. And that's Houston's credit to take. Bravo, good sirs.
Also, bravo to Yao Ming, and Ron Artest.
I had a problem with Bill Simmons writing something like, "he is what he is," about Ming's 20 and 10 this season. That's not how he is. That's how he is when he deals with Tracy McGrady shooting way too much for his skill set for the first half of the year, and Ron Artest shooting as much as he did all season.
Artest constantly looked past Ming for his own shot five or six times a game, and that's usually the difference between a 20-point season for Yao, to a 24-point season (seeing as how he nearly averaged that from 2005-08, in the years leading up to his prime).
On Saturday, the Rockets went to the big man (24 points and perfect shooting in nine attempts). And when Portland overplayed him in the second half, Artest wouldn't shoot unless he actually could square his shoulders, come down in the same spot he jumped from, and could see the basket properly.
That is to say, he took good shots. And the result? 17 points on 12 shots for Artest, who played an outstanding game on both ends. Honestly, bravo.
Play like that more often, and you have a damn good shot to win this series, and possibly take down the Lakers. And if that happens, the Finals are a pretty sure bet. I mean that.
But only if you sustain that defense, and keep up the smart play on offense.
Portland? You know what you have to do.

Author's Note: I spit this out at about one in the morning over the course of 30 minutes, trying to convince myself that I just need a been of consolation after watching the season finale. Upon completing this, I think I've realized what I really need is series two. Immediately. Enjoy.
He already made the decision once tonight, so making it again came easily. The first time he considered it an impulse bred into him through years of military service: get the civilian out of the fight zone. Paired with this, he thought virtuously, was the instinct to protect a friend to the best of his ability, and Sherlock Holmes, while a general pain the ass and, often, sulking and rude, had somehow turned out to be one of the few people in his life that he had any persistent communication with. Whether this made Holmes a friend or not, he wasn't sure, at least, not the first time he'd reacted selflessly, wrapping his arms about Moriarty and shouting at Holmes to run. But afterwards, after Sherlock rushed to him and practically pulled him apart in his haste to remove the jacket and bomb, the fretful concern in his voice, the sheepish and shy way he addressed the actions, nullified any questions.
Together with the fact that any action done once can be easily repeated, he found little difficulty in simply reacting, again. Two gunshots fired, one from a rifle and the other from his gun; both were as familiar as his own breathing even when they echoed raucously inside the gigantic pool hall. He had less than a heartbeat to shove his shoulder into Sherlock's ribs and toss them both headfirst into the pool. Fire licked at them both even as the chlorinated water enveloped them. He blinked at the stinging water, watching the orange and yellow lightshow, his heart racing in his ears, adrenaline surging in his veins and his mind shockingly blank.
'As always, John,' Sherlock murmured lazily in his head. 'Now, what logically comes next?'
Surfacing, he thought, though it hovered a distance away and the pair of them continued to sink down towards the concrete below. They ought to surface and swim for the shallows, keep their heads low in case the snipers still lingered above, and attempt to get out of the building. In the building, they were open targets, a pair of pawns in Moriarty's game, but outside, any number of options or opportunities could present themselves. He just had to get them that far, get Sherlock that far anyway, because, while John admitted to having a very well developed sense of self-preservation, his few interactions with Sherlock had revealed that many a squirrel playing chicken in the streets had better self-concern than Sherlock Holmes.
But even as he mulled this over, he found that his arms only twitched slightly. Next to him bobbed Sherlock, back turned so that John could not see his face, but his lack of movement and struggle screamed wrongness at John far more than anything else could. Give him a whiny Holmes, a bored Holmes, a hurt Holmes, and all of them would have overwhelming amounts of gesticulations and twitches. In fact, John had long since decided that the only time Sherlock Holmes would be still would be if he'd died.
This spurred him far better than the building pressure in his lungs or the knowledge that staying in the pool made them remarkably easy targets; the ever so apt phrase "fish in a barrel" came to mind as he got his arm about Sherlock's chest. Crouching so his shoes just barely scraped the rough bottom, he surged up, pressing through the water and watching the dim light (the explosion had long ended) come closer and closer until—he gasped for breath and struggled to keep the pair of them floating. Sherlock remained a dead weight against him, not even attempting to help as they floundered in the center of the water. This would be a matter of concern for John if he didn't know how ridiculously lazy Sherlock could be at times.
'With reason,' Sherlock muttered, a little defensively. 'Expending energy on tasks not directly related to solving a case is inefficient. Besides John, I have you. My faithful Blogger.'
"Dead, you bloody bastard," he choked, desperately aware of how his body failed him bit by bit. "Dead on the floor from biting a bloody pill's what you'd be. Dead and rotting in the—" He gasped as his leg seized up. "Damn it!"
He didn't see any deadly red dots floating on the surface of the pool or on Sherlock's person which both reassured him and caused him justifiable paranoia. Only a few moments before, the pair of them had thought they were safe, he sinking to the floor in a sudden, body draining wave of relief and Sherlock fluttering about in a nervous, hummingbird manner. Now, safety felt like a harmful illusion propagated by the government (or maybe just Mycroft) in order to prevent mass hysteria. He sank for a moment and then surfaced again, coughing and wheezing, eyes blurred and burning from the pool water. Survival training started to kick in—get to shore—but he couldn't seem to paddle properly.
'Not much use, swimming, in the desert, hmm?' Sherlock said, disdain waiting his voice the way that John's shoes attempted to pull him down.
"Would you shut up?" he growled, spluttering as the water entered his mouth. Just five feet, he estimated, to the edge. He just needed to get five feet over before hazarding a glance behind himself at the damage the explosion had wrought. Just five feet before he could check to see whether or not Sherlock had successfully rid himself of his rival or if he'd just caused an excessive amount of damage to public property. Just five more feet and then—
His fingers scrabbled at the tiled surface and his arm—very much occupied at keeping Sherlock's head above the water—dragged his flat mate's body over so that it rested awkwardly against the side. He suddenly felt achingly tired, like he could fall asleep right here, right now, but he refused to give in, not immediately anyway, not until he had them both away from the threat of drowning. The doctor in him was shouting about how long a brain could go without oxygen before damage began and how, with all the evidence his senses had acquired, Sherlock appeared to not be breathing. He fumbled a bit, uncertain of how to do everything without stairs, his brain going muddy as the adrenaline all but faded away. Letting go of his charge ever so briefly, he dragged himself upwards, his one leg achingly stiff and useless, his opposing shoulder throbbing from overexertion.
Then he grabbed Sherlock by his perfectly pressed collar—now soaked through and sloppy—and clung with all his might. He couldn't seem to get Sherlock all the way out, regardless of how hard he tugged or how much anxiety it caused him to see Sherlock's pale, still face and closed eyes. Even the sight of half the building blown away opposite from them did not encourage him to go any further than where he now lay, heaving, exhausted, and in a strange manner, slightly numb.
"No more," he panted, "secret admirers. For you."
He ought to double check to make certain Sherlock's airway was clear. He ought to do a perimeter scan. He ought to figure out where the blood was coming from because it was rather disconcerting. But all he managed was to lie there and wait for the emergency response team.
"It's true, you know," he mumbled thickly, blinking wearily at the ceiling. "Never a dull moment."
"Yes," a croaking voice chokes. "Well, I did warn you that I was insufferable."
He giggled a little, nearly hysterical, "Yes, yes, I think you might have. So hard to remember, now."
"The memory faults would explain your romantic glossing of our "Study in Pink" and your persistent," cough, "need to idolize me," Sherlock reasoned. Then, softer, "What you just did… right, now…"
"Admirable? Thank you?" John wheezed.
"Idiotic, but I'd expect no less," a hand reached over and squeezed his where his fingers still wrapped in Sherlock's collar. "Didn't I say I'd be lost without my blogger?"
John felt as though the world had become one fine pinprick in the distance and knew that this was unconsciousness trying to whisk him away before he made too much of an ass of himself. "Lost, dead, but that's just logistics, I suppose?"
"Regardless," Sherlock's voice took a longsuffering air, "you owe me a new cell-phone." The fingers resting on top of his own pried his hand loose and the collar slipped away. "Two, in fact, unless Mister Moriarty intends to send me—John?"
What Mister Moriarty may or may not have sent Mister Sherlock Holmes, Mister John Watson never learned. He'd already drifted into the happy haze of one border lining shock, his limbs trembling, his body aching, his mind irrational at best. Whatever brilliant deduction Sherlock had managed would inevitably hang on until he could open his eyes again. After all, they'd closed at some point while he'd traded comments with the world's only consulting detective and he hadn't the inspiration to pry them apart. Not even the soft moan of, "No" followed by a harsh amount of prodding and shaking helped him blink his eyes open. After all, this wasn't the end.
Sherlock still owed him answers.
And he still owed Sherlock a phone.

LIMA — The teenage driver of a pickup truck that crashed and killed two other Elida football players in August pleaded not guilty Thursday to two counts of vehicular homicide.
Lawrence Slygh made his first court appearance in the case. Allen County Juvenile Judge Glenn Derryberry read Slygh the charges and explained the penalties.
There are a host of possible penalties ranging from 90 days in juvenile detention on each charge down to probation, a fine, driver's license suspension, restitution and community service.
Slygh is charged in the Aug. 12 crash on state Route 309 near the Redd Road intersection that killed Drew Dulebohn, 15, and Jakob Sexton, 15.
Slygh was driving a pickup truck when he drove off the right side of the road, struck a ditch and the vehicle went airborne striking a fence and tree before overturning.
Dulebohn and Sexton were both passengers in the truck along with Jaxson Swickrath, 15, of Elida, Jaden Boroff, 15, of Lima, and Alana Rankin, 16, of Lima. All but Rankin were members of the Elida High School football team.

A Mumbai-bound Jet Airways passenger aircraft developed a technical snag in its wheel at the Harni airport here today delaying the flight for more than three hours, airport sources said.
The Vadodara-Mumbai flight which was scheduled to depart at 0715 hours developed a problem in its wheel while landing at the airport here around 0630 hours, they said without disclosing the details of the snag.
The pilot noticed the damage in the wheels of the aircraft, coming from the metropolis, following which repair works were initiated due to which passengers were not allowed to board the flight, airport sources said.
The wheel, which was not functioning properly is awaiting a replacement and a spare tyre is being brought from Mumbai in an Indigo aircraft, after which the flight will take off soon, sources added.
Meanwhile, over 50 passengers remained stranded at the airport waiting for the departure while some of them cancelled their tickets and returned home.


text: I have read about the new VDPAU support, and am wondering if I should try it. http://zacgarrett.com/software/insta...pau/index.html gives a fairly involved way to do this. http://www.avenard.org/files/mythtv-vdpau/ says I can simply install a new repository, then upgrade the system. Have other mythbuntu users tried either of these? I am interested in peoples experiences and opinions.

From the outside, it's a restored tobacco barn. Slide open the giant door and there's a 400 square ft all-season, carpeted, insulated, great room with grid power, fully-provisioned kitchen, high ceiling, sleeping loft, lots of windows & huge porch overlooking/hearing a vigorous creek.
From the outside, it's a restored tobacco barn. Slide open the giant door and there's a 400 square ft all-season, carpeted, insulated, great room with grid power, fully-provisioned kitchen, high ceiling, sleeping loft, lots of windows & huge porch overlooking/hearing a vigorous creek.
In 2008, I set about restoring this old tobacco barn, pouring foundation, replacing the roof, laying new flooring, and building what is essentially a modern one-room tiny house inside. I've never seen anything like it and probably never will because it made zero economic sense!
The room is around 14' x 17' with 20' ceilings, sleeps one couple and two singles or kids in the loft. In warmer weather, a giant porch overlooking a robust creek could easily accommodate another four sleepers in bags.
There's a private shower room (hot & cold) with a space heater, an outdoor kitchen with hot & cold running water, a Weber grill, a loft way in the high rafters, near where a barn owl occasionally perches. The kitchen has plenty of basic cooking implements and utensils in good condition. French press for coffee, cast iron skillet, basic pots, pans, knives, some spices depending on who's left what. If you are a chef or foodie and would like, please feel free to bring stuff you know you'd like to have w/ you.
Please note: between between November and mid-March, water is shut off to the barn to prevent freezing pipes. Spring water is drawn from a nearby freeze-proof hydrant.
This property is for rent nightly (2 nights min), weekly or month, either separate or together with a secluded mountain cabin (https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/4043458).
Guests have access to the full property -- nearly 30 acres, including 1 linear mile of private wooded hiking trail, a one of a kind treehouse "the Nest," 1200 feet of creek frontage, giant meadow, 100 fruit and nut trees, whatever's up in the raised beds, a composting toilet and a hot/cold shower (the toilet and shower are shared if there are other guests in the cabin). Also, if there are no guests in the cabin, barn guests can enjoy the frog pond, the cabin porch, and the wood-fired hot tub (for an extra $25). We keep plenty of wood on hand and to keep the tub clean).
Your host(s) will accessible anytime by email and text, but will generally not be present during your stay.
Pls note, the barn is one of 2 dwellings on this parcel; the other is a cabin/tiny home about 75 feet away (https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/4043458). Sometimes, there'll be no guests in the cabin, and other times, there will. If you have a larger group, or for a completely private experience, both structures can be rented pretty for not a lot more. https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/4191598?checkin=11%2F12%2F2014&checkout=11%2F20%2F2014&s=Tmnd
Good Egg Barn is near Spring Creek in Madison County, NC, which has rolling hills, curvy roads, gorgeous vistas, dramatic weather, varied animal and bird life, and friendly, respectful neighbors. Very little real estate development has come to this mountain community.
The County was settled in the early 1800s by independent and resourceful settlers, mostly Scots-Irish. In the mid-1800s, when Union and Confederate recruiters came calling, Madison County folks were just as likely to hide in the hills as join one side or the other. To this day, there is a very strong "live and let live" ethos.
In the late sixties and seventies, back-to-the -landers came to the area and settled, attracted by that ethos, open space, and, most of all, the incredible unspoiled beauty. Many are still here alongside descendants of mountain folk (from whom I bought this parcel), retirees, artists, and visitors like yourselves.
This property is in a tiny little township called Meadow Fork, which probably has less than a thousand people. Our neighbors are friendly, gracious people who don't get in each others' business, but look out for one another. It's de rigueur on the roads around here to raise a hand or at least your index finger and acknowledge every car you pass.
We are in a remote area. Good roads get you here, but there's no public transportation. From the Asheville airport, it's a 90 min. drive on interstate to a curvy mountain road. 4 Wheel drive is not required except in extreme weather. Our driveway is right off of Meadow Fork Road, a solid 2 lane, which can have as few as 20 or 30 cars passing per day. Winter can be tricky as the road isn't plowed very quickly and we don't plow the property, but any other time of year, it's easy in, easy out. There's a volunteer fire dept. for emergencies (Spring Creek, NC).
I find it's best to go for food and ice once, either before you arrive--there's a big Ingles in Leicester -- or, if you're up for a beautiful drive, or want to see one of these towns -- Waynesville, Marshall, or Hot Springs. About a mile or two from Good Egg, there's Miss An's convenience store and RV park for snacks and gas (directions to hers and other places are in a binder in the cabin), or 4 miles to the Trust General Store and gas station (there's a small restaurant there).
Our friends and neighbors, chefs, caterers, & Innkeepers Brenda and Mo will make a yummy dinner for you to pick up with notice.
For a (fiberglass & jets) hot tub soak and/or a restaurant meal, 30 minutes away is Hot Springs. Max Patch, a breathtaking "bald" with panaromic views is 20 minutes. Downtown Asheville, about an hour).
The entire property including the barn was "developed" using permaculture and sustainable homesteading principles. If we are not around to explain things, there is a full binder with all the details of how we came to build what is here.
And while the cabin is not grid-tied, the barn has full power, internet, and phone. You don't need to build a fire to cook or be warm (building a fire in a barn isn't such a great idea anyway), read by candle light or worry about your laptop battery. At the same time, you are in the country and going outside at night, you'll see tons of stars, breathe clean air and hear only animal sounds and the rushing creek below.
No matter what the season, what the weather, Good Egg Barn is comfortable and unique.
Note: Since we opened in October, 2014, guest reviews consistently tell us us best thing about staying at Good Egg is being off the grid and the treadmill of modern life, unplugging from the dominant culture and experiencing oneself as humans did 100 years ago and more.
Whether it's the absence of electricity (in the cabin), the quiet of the country, no city glow in the night sky, or the once common experience of the natural world dominating over human-made or human-crafted things, it's astonishing for many of us to see and feel and experience without constant communications via text and email and the distractions of modern life. Many people write that they've learned an enormous amount about themselves, about homesteading or permaculture, and about alternate ways of being.
This Spring (2016), we've increased the minimum number of nights to encourage, facilitate and deepen this experience for guests. Our prices now reflect more accurately our costs to maintain and improve the buildings & the property as well as carefully and lovingly transitioning it between guests.
WARNING: Under North Carolina law, there is no liability for an injury to or death of a participant in an agritourism activity conducted at this agritourism location if such injury or death results from the inherent risks of the agritourism activity. Inherent risks of agritourism activities include, among others, risks of injury inherent to land, equipment, and animals, as well as the potential for you to act in a negligent manner that may contribute to your injury or death. You are assuming the risk of participating in this agritourism activity." N.C.G.S. § 99E-32(b).
There is no smoking anywhere in the barn. Also, no shoes indoors (the floor is partially carpeted and insulated but a pair of thick socks or slippers is a good idea!).
Please carry food scraps to the compost bins in front of the outhouse and keep scraps of all size from going down any of the drains as we use a sensitive gray water system that needs to keep clear.
If there are no guests at the cabin, by pre-arrangement, you can pay a $25 fee to use the spring-fed wood-fired hot tub. We love pets, and they are welcome in the cabin, but not in the barn.
We ask that you not take plants or rocks from the property and that you put all trash and recycling in the appropriate marked bins with lids tight We appreciate your leaving the cabin as you found it.
Note: from time to time, guests leave things behind. We understand and try to connect lost items with their owners. Because we are a remote location, and each item must be handled several times and transported to me in town to be packaged and mailed, there is a $30 handling fee in addition to postage. So please check & double check before leaving!

Most of my life I lived in the Northeast. One summer, I realized I could just as easily work from a beautiful place in the mountains as I could in the urban duplex where I woke to the sound of buses and fell asleep to my neighbor's radio.
In 2008, I moved to Asheville, NC. Soon after, I found a 30 acre parcel in the nearby mountains that would become Good Egg. Over the years, with input from permaculture designers, I built a tiny home/cabin, refurbished the old tobacco barn, and developed a low impact, fun, sustainable infrastructure, which has become a rustic writing retreat and getaway for me and an occasional rental property.
I enjoy writing fiction, non-fiction and poetry, reading, making music, word play, distance running, meeting people and feeling connected to family and friends.

I'm up to date on my Temperature Blanket...
I like to crochet, but I never said I'm very good at it. Somehow
my stitches get tighter as I go! My sides are not very straight and the
beginning edge is rather friendly!
The next 2 weeks are suppose to be in the low 50's everyday. That's going to be a lot of green!
So while I wait for more yarn for my Amazing Hexie blanket, and I'm
missing making those hexies, what do I do? Start another one! I'm
thinking primroses..... and spring flowers!
I'm using the hexagon pattern over at Attic24.... love these!

Health Impacts of our Education Justice Work
All information extracted from Health Impact Assessment of School Discipline Policies, a joint report of Human Impact Partners, CADRE, and Restorative Justice Partners.
Impacts on Educational Attainment
Public health studies show that people with more education are likely to:
- Live longer
- Exercise regularly and have a healthy weight
- Not smoke
- Obtain timely heath care checkups and screenings
- Have healthier babies and children
- Have better social networks of support
- Earn more money
An Exclusionary discipline approach leads to lower educational attainment, including:
- Lower grades and test scores
- Negative attitudes about school and feelings of alienation
- Increased Special Education referrals
- Higher dropout rates and grade retention
- Less participation in extracurricular activities
- Lower attendance rates
Coleman is helping to lead the implementation of a new approach to school discipline in SFUSD, at the core of which are two primary strategies: PBIS (Positive Behavior Interventions and Supports) and Restorative Practices.
PBIS is a proactive approach to establishing the behavioral supports and social culture and needed for all students in a school to achieve social, emotional and academic success. Restorative practices are processes that proactively build healthy relationships and a sense of community to prevent and address conflict and wrongdoing. They allow each member of the school community to develop and implement a school's adopted core values.
A PBIS discipline approach leads to higher educational attainment, including improvements in reading performance and all-around student academic performance, as well as a reduction in out-of-school suspensions.
A Restorative Justice discipline approach also leads to higher educational attainment, including:
- Reduced suspensions and expulsions
- The development and sustainability of positive relationships
- Higher attendance rates and higher likelihood of graduating
- Higher academic performance, including test scores
Impacts on Misbehavior, Recurring Discipline Events, and Incarceration
Studies have shown that suspension and expulsion are associated with the following public health issues:
- Engagement with juvenile justice and incarceration as an adult, which are associated with stress related illnesses, psychiatric problems, suicide attempts, higher long-range recidivism rates, and increased HIV, Hepatitis C, and tuberculosis
- Dropping out, which can then lead to increased chance of unemployment and incarceration
An Exclusionary discipline approach does not prevent future offenses at school and leads to:
- More misbehavior and repeat suspension and/or expulsion
- Increased violence and drug use
- Increased referrals to juvenile justice and greater likelihood of adult incarceration
A PBIS discipline approach leads to a reduction in office discipline referrals and suspensions, fewer referrals to law enforcement, and fewer repeat incidents.
A Restorative Justice discipline approach leads to fewer instances of harmful and disruptive behavior, reduction in suspensions and expulsions, and fewer referrals to law enforcement.
Impacts on Mental Health
One contributor to poor mental health is stress. Early life and chronic stress, including stress from feeling unsafe in one's neighborhood and environment, can lead to:
- Poor birth outcomes
- Adult chronic disease and obesity
- Mental health disorders
- Heart disease
- Substance abuse
A PBIS discipline approach leads to a reduction in negative mental health outcomes of exclusionary discipline policies.
A Restorative Justice discipline approach leads to:
- Increased levels of respect and empathy
- Improved conflict resolution skills
- Reduced antisocial behavior among students
Impacts on Violence and Crime
Impacts of violence on health are both direct and indirect. Violence can cause injury or death and can:
- Increase stress and exacerbate negative mental health impacts
- Decrease neighborhood cohesion, which is a determinant of health
- On a neighborhood level, increase pre-term birth and low birth weight
- Increase violence and non-violent delinquency among adolescent girls and boys
An Exclusionary discipline approach leads to increased school safety, and potentially decreases school safety. In addition, youth are more likely to use drugs when they're not in school.
A PBIS discipline approach leads to improvements in students' perceptions of safety at school.
A Restorative Justice discipline approach leads to:
- Reduced violence and fights
- Increased perceptions of safety
- Reduced crime
Impacts on Community Cohesion
Strong social ties and/or a social network are associated with:
- Lower stress
- Better management of and recovery from illness
- Decreased risk of mortality
- Increased access to health-related information and resources
- Lower anxiety and depression in coping with community violence
- Lower risk of suicide
An Exclusionary discipline approach leads to financial hardships for parents who stay home to supervise suspended or expelled children.
A PBIS discipline approach leads to:
- Increased respect for all members of the school community
- Better relationships among staff
- Supportive administrative leadership
A Restorative Justice discipline approach leads to:
- Better relationships throughout the school community
- Increased student participation
- Increased respect among students

nb the away ticket bit is not an absolute guarantee but I have 42 credits which will drop back to 27 at the start of next season so pretty sure. Plus you would have to order early so that I could offer elsewhere if you didn't want.

THE BRILLIANCE! > Married to the Mizzob… What's really good with you guys lately?
MTTM! > Chillin . Hustling as usual and in the mean time enjoying life.
TB! > More importantly, how corny was that 'Mizzob' above?
MTTM! > Corny is good sometimes.
TB! > What did you guys have for breakfast? And what is dinner looking like this evening?
L! > I don't wake up early enough for breakfast. But the first thing I had in my mouth was…....... walnuts and craisins.
S! > i had no water in my apt this morning…so i had i a week old iced coffee i found in the fridge for breakfast. We're eating at Leah's house…she's cooking pork chops and sausage….i might go home.
TB! > For those who don't live in NYC, aren't constantly on Being Hunted, or are just super-square…explain to us what MTTM is all about. The whole thing…the clothing, the lifestyle, the brand, etc.
MTTM! > Dam there are people who dont know about MTTM yet?...only kidding…well MTTM is all about our way of life…..the style we like, the parties we go to, the people we chill with, the trouble we get into, the shit we laugh about….
TB! > If you were given three words to describe MTTM what would they be?
TB! > Who is MTTM? Name the people involved.
MTTM! > Us, Leah and Sharon. But all of our friends are involved some way or another. Either just supporting, repping and sometimes helping out with shit.
TB! > What city do you guys rep?
MTTM! > NYC of course.
TB! > Does each member play a specific role or does everybody handle everything?
MTTM! > No we both handle everything. Nothing is done without the other being involved…it's like checks and balances.
TB! > How did things get started for you guys? What made you want to start MTTM?
MTTM! > We were bored as shit last summer and drunk all the time. So we had good ideas and the resources to get started…so we said fuck it….let's start our own line.
TB! > What makes MTTM different then 'everyone else' doing their thing in the niche-fashion game? Would you credit a lot of the originality to the fact that it's a girls-only brand?
MTTM! > Well for one, it's different cause we're doing it….it's our perspective. We dont think it is original soley because it is girls only, we think it's original because of the concepts behind each shirt. most of the logos could be altered a little and work on a man's shirt. If anything, we think it's original because everything is kind of masculine but intended for women….20 other girls-only brands can come out, and we dont think that will fuck up our game at all. There is only one Married to the Mob.
TB! > What is the day-to-day like running MTTM? Is it a full-time job for you?
MTTM! > WE dont fuck wit "full-time"...haha…. We are big on enjoying our lives. We do what we do, we enjoy our day, and incorporate work in. Realistically, we are always working….it's always on our minds. Sometimes we'll call one another at 4 in the morning because we have a good concept to discuss. Sometimes its a shitty idea at 4am and the one on the receiving end gets pissed.
TB! > I want to talk to some of the more 'behind-the-scenes' type areas of the clothing game… Such as manufacturing. Which, to those who don't know, is no joke…it's quite difficult to get everything lined up. How did that go for you guys, was it a struggle to pull it all together?
MTTM! > Oh production is a pain in the ass. anything that could go wrong has gone wrong for us at one time or another. we were dealing with some jerk-offs who cut the necklines opened on all of our shirts. We had assholes sewing in tags upside down and shit. one place even forgot to "cure" half of a production run!...curing seals the ink, so when the shirts were washed everything washed off. It's just a matter of dealing with the bad as it comes along and learning from mistakes.
TB! > How is it going now? Are you guys doing cut-and-sew pieces at all?
MTTM! > Right now things are going well, we think we have the production figured out. Next season we are adding cut and sew, some off the wall shit. Just keep your pants on…you'll see it soon enough.
TB! > What about runs…how many of each piece do you produce? Or are you producing in accordance with demand?
MTTM! > We produce based on demand and pre-orders we receive for each style.
TB! > What's long(er) term vision for the pieces in the line? Shirts, shoes, pants/jeans, jackets, accessories, those old long-ass Triple Fat Goose style jackets, fannie packs?
MTTM! > oh yeah….all that good stuff. keep your eyes peel for a flask and bikini in the near future.
TB! > If you could organize a concert with any 5 musicians/bands dead or alive, who would we see?
MTTM! > 1. the notorious B.I.G
2. chopin
3. Jimi Hendrix
4. Willy Nelson
we like a lot of dead people…..is willy nelson still alive?
TB! > Also, I know right now MTTM is strictly a women's line. For somewhat obvious reasons I would assume it will continue on like that… Is that the plan? Was that a stupid question?
MTTM! > yep that's the plan. we've been asked to do men's shirts before…we just dont care to.
TB! > Real quick… Sidekick or Blackberry? Nike or Adidas? Sushi or McDonalds? Apple or PC? Aston Martin or Lambo? Palm trees or Pine trees?
L! > Treo, Nike, Sushi even though I love a good double pounder with cheese once in a while, apple, to be honest I'm more of an SL 500 hard top convertible kind of a girl, palm trees for sure.
S! > Treo; Nike; Sushi…fuck mc donald's…i saw supersize me; Apple—but the shit is always breaking; aston martin for sure; cherry blossom trees.
TB! > Distribution… I actually saw your stuff at Huf last weekend in SF and I know you guys are doing your thing in quite a few of the staple stores in NYC… How did your distribution come about? Do you handle all of that internally?
MTTM! > We do all of our own distribution…we're hands on if ya know what i mean.
TB! > Officially, list all the stores people can find your gear…
MTTM! > nah.
TB! > Any store you would love to have carry your gear?
MTTM! > one that will order 2million pieces each season.
TB! > What about a MTTM store in the future…is this something you guys are thinking about?
MTTM! > we're working on it….we just dont want to link up with some investor that tries to change how we do.
TB! > What about collaborations… I know you did one with Alife, any other ones in the future coming up? I remember reading on Supertalk that there were rumors of you and Bape doing something…?!
MTTM! > oh we cant tell you..but yeah we are in talks on a few big things with some big people that we respect…
TB! > Alright… Some off the subject questions… What brands/people do you really appreciate right now? Who is cold doing their thing?
MTTM! > Alife and Supreme always…they are the kings and inspire us. Goyard- act like you know. Versace-making an ill comeback. Lindsay Lohan- we love that freckled little coke head.
TB! > Now name names!! Who is wack right now? Who should just quit while they're behind?
MTTM! > Marc Jacobs—enuf with that vintage copied, so-called "inspired" bullshit. And what the fuck is he doing over at LV? Imitation of Christ—-no explanation needed. Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes; worst cover up for a gay actor ever.
TB! > Favorite website(s)?
MTTM! > style.com
thebrilliance.com of course
gawker.com…..gawker stalker is the shit.
TB! > Favorite places to travel? Any 'dream' vacation destination?
L! > My favorite place so far is St. Barth's
S! > My favorite is Copenhagen..I hate the weather but i love the city & the people.
MTTM! > As for a dream vacation…we want to plan a Retail Mafia "family vacation" to Robert's Cove—it's a whole little island you can rent off of belize…it has like 10 huts in the water…it's dope.
TB! > Favorite flavor of taffy?
L! > Watermelon
S! > I dont eat that.
TB! > Best designed car right now?
L! > AMG benzo
S! > Maybach
TB! > This is the random section… Anything you want here. Random thoughts, something crazy that happened to you in traffic yesterday, shout outs or whatever the kids call it these days, what color socks you're wearing, anything is cool here… Let em' have it!
L! > lets see…shout outs to the whole MOB Crew and Retail Mafia, my main men Jest and Jerry, and my fam. I didn't wear socks today cause I had on loafers. Let's see what else…oh yeah…mad love to my partner in business and crime, Sharon, for beating some girls ass last week at Lotus after she started with me for no apparent or obvious reason. I wish I could've seen her fucked up face the next day.
TB! > Final words? Closing thoughts?
MTTM! > cant think of any….sorry.
TB! > Was this interview too long?
L! > kind of…not really.
S! > I have A.D.D…
TB! > As always… What are your thoughts on THE BRILLIANCE?
MTTM! > Good stuff!

Although inept once again on offense, the Irish forced seven UCLA turnovers to get off the snide and earn victory No. 1 20-6 last Saturday night. The season is half over and the numbers aren't pretty. The losses and mounting criticism kept growing after each defeat. But a key characteristic didn't change among the Notre Dame players. The Irish have been able to respond week after week.
"I think the greatest sense of accomplishment in a team that's 1-5 is it doesn't act like a team and doesn't practice like a team that's 1-5," head coach Charlie Weis said at his Tuesday press conference. "I only can credit the players. I'd like to sit there and pat myself on the back, but it's really the character of our team because most teams when they're 0-5 don't act like a team that still thinks they can win. They don't practice that way. They don't act that way and it says a lot for the character of our players."
That attitude was evident in the win over the Bruins at the Rose Bowl. Maurice Crum, Jr. had a performance for the ages. The senior defensive captain became the first Notre Dame player ever to record a pair of forced fumbles, two fumble recoveries, two interceptions and a touchdown all in the same game.
The defense, as a whole, flustered UCLA quarterback McLeod Bethel-Thompson time after time and knocked starting signal caller Ben Olson out of the contest in the second quarter. The six points allowed was a low since Weis took over in South Bend. Defensive coordinator Corwin Brown's bunch has put together three straight halves of solid play, dating back to the final 30 minutes of the Purdue game.
As the defense keeps adjusting to the 3-4 scheme, the offense hasn't been able to show significant progress. Against the Bruins, Notre Dame totaled just 140 total yards. Weis said on Tuesday that after Olson went out of the contest, the game plan became conservative to limit the mistakes. The Irish head coach guessed the move would put his team in the best possible position to win. With Bethel-Thompson making turnover after turnover, Weis was right.
Still, the offense still has ways to go. The statistical rankings have Notre Dame dead last in total offense, sacks allowed and rushing offense, 118th in scoring offense, 109th in passing offense and 108th in pass efficiency offense. For the Irish to finish the season strong, Notre Dame must be able to put points up on the scoreboard, especially in the next two contests against Boston College and USC. Weis feels there will be improvement, not only on offense but on defense and special teams as well.
"I think the offense has been up and down and has only shown flashes," Weis said of the production through six games. "The biggest thing I'm encouraged at is I think our best ball is yet to come. You'd like to sit there and say you're playing your best ball early in the year. All I can do is do stuff for games seven through twelve, and I'd have to feel very strongly in all three aspects the arrow is pointing up."
A test of this thought will come sooner for Notre Dame rather than later. The Irish will host Boston College on Saturday afternoon. Kickoff is set for 3:43 PM and NBC will have the national television broadcast. The Eagles, who have beat Notre Dame four straight times, have ascended to No. 4 in both polls and haven't been tested since the first week of the season.
Boston College has won all six contests by 10 points or more. The Eagles closest game was the opening 38-28 victory over Wake Forest. Boston College beat Georgia Tech 24-10 in Atlanta. Earlier in the year, Notre Dame lost to the Yellow Jackets 33-3 in South Bend. The 6-0 start is the best for the Eagles since 1942.
Dink and dunk won't work against this team. Boston College knows how to score. The Eagles are averaging 35 PPG and allowing only 18, good for 21st in the nation.
It starts with quarterback Matt Ryan, whose play this season has led his name to be floated in the Heisman Trophy discussion. The senior signal caller, who Weis predicted would be a high pick in the NFL Draft, has thrown for 1,857 yards and 15 touchdowns to five interceptions. The Notre Dame head coach knows that with the Eagles ability to score, the offensive game plan implemented in the second half of the UCLA win has to be thrown away.
"It has to change significantly," Weis said. "(Boston College) knows that, too. This isn't like I'm giving away any big secret. It's not like we're going to go in with three tight ends and run the ball inside the whole game. We're going to have to score some points to win.
"Last week, especially after Olson got knocked down, you knew you weren't going to need to score a whole bunch of points to win the game. This week you're going to have to score some points to win."
