Green Bay Welcomes Youngstown State, Cleveland State This Weekend
GREEN BAY, Wis. (GreenBayPhoenix.com) – The Green Bay volleyball team (8-10, 3-2 HL) returns home this weekend for a pair of Horizon League contests following a four-match road stretch that lasted nearly three weeks. The Phoenix first welcomes Youngstown State (11-9, 3-2 HL) to the Kress Center on Friday at 7 p.m. before hosting Cleveland State (12-6, 2-3 HL) on Saturday at 4 p.m.
Fans unable to make it out to the Kress Center this weekend can follow both matches with free live video on the Horizon League Network, as well as live stats. Links can also be found on the volleyball schedule page on GreenBayPhoenix.com. The official Green Bay volleyball Twitter (@GBPhoenixVB) and Facebook (Green Bay Phoenix Volleyball) accounts will also be posting live updates throughout weekend.

Saturday, Oct. 19

Green Bay traveled to Chicago on Tuesday for its final non-conference match of the regular season at DePaul. The Phoenix jumped out to a 2-0 advantage and made a furious comeback attempt in the fifth after dropping sets three and four, but the Blue Demons held on for the 3-2 win, improving to a perfect 14-0 in non-conference play (15-3 overall).
The Phoenix looked to be down and out in the fifth, trailing the BIG EAST foe 10-3, but an 8-1 run fueled by four Shannon Hurley (Connellsville, Pa.) kills helped the relentless road team tie things up at 11-11. Another Hurley kill helped Green Bay grab its first lead of the set at 13-12, but the Blue Demons rattled off the final three points of the match to secure the victory.
Hurley finished with 18 kills, five of which came in the fifth set. Senior Leah Van Zeeland (Kaukauna, Wis.) posted a career-high 21 kills in the loss and added 10 digs for her seventh double-double of the year. Sophomore Emily Riese (Fond du Lac, Wis.) also recorded her seventh double-double of the season with 51 assists and 14 digs.
Several Phoenix players rank among the Horizon League's leaders in a number of statistical categories. Green Bay has three of the top four hitters in the league in terms of kills per set, as Hurley is first (3.23), Van Zeeland is third (3.09) and Monica Anderson (Cottage Grove, Wis.) is fourth (3.07). Sophomore transfers Emily Riese (Fond du Lac, Wis.) and Jillian Bauer (Verona, Wis.) are also both on top of their respective lists, as Riese is first in assists per set (10.5) and Bauer is first in digs per set (4.87). In addition, sophomore Becca Mastey (Pulaski, Wis.) ranks fifth in service aces per set (0.29) and classmate Mikaela Gunderson (Casco, Wis.) is sixth in hitting percentage (.271).
Green Bay and Youngstown State (11-9, 3-2 HL) enter the weekend tied for third place in the Horizon League standings, both owning 3-2 records. The Penguins are coming off a 3-0 win over UIC at home last Saturday, a match in which senior Erika West recorded her 1,000th career dig and fellow senior Jenna Cavanaugh registered an impressive 10 blocks in the three-setter.
YSU boasts one of the Horizon League's best defenses, leading the way in blocks per set (2.62) and holding opponents to a .171 hitting percentage. Cavanaugh is tops in the league individually in both blocks (86) and blocks per set (1.41).
Cleveland State (12-6, 2-3 HL) is coming off a pair of five-set home losses last weekend against UIC and Valparaiso. The Vikings lead all Horizon League schools in a number of stat categories, including hitting percentage (.216), opponent hitting percentage (.161), kills (13.31) and assists (12.22).
Junior Maggie Hannon paces the CSU offense, leading the conference in hitting percentage (.348) and ranking second behind Hurley in kills per set (3.16).
Monica Anderson earned Horizon League Scholar-Athlete of the Month honors for August/September on Tuesday, Oct. 15 following an impressive start to her senior campaign. Anderson posted 101 kills in the month of September, averaging 3.26 per set while hitting .265. She had double-digit kill totals in six of the team's 10 matches, including a 21-kill effort in a comeback win over Oakland on Sept. 28. Anderson was also named to the Butler Classic All-Tournament Team on Sept. 21 after registering 34 kills and hitting .405 in the three matches in Indianapolis.
The senior currently ranks fourth among all Horizon League players in kills per set (3.07). She recently tied her career high with 22 kills on Oct. 4 in a tough, five-set loss at Valparaiso. In the classroom, Anderson boasts a 3.905 cumulative grade-point average as a democracy and justice studies major and helped the Phoenix earn a 3.54 team GPA last spring.
Green Bay's 3-1 start in Horizon League play this year equaled the best four-match conference start in school history. The Phoenix also began 3-1 in 2003 en route to an 8-1 start, and eventually won the conference tournament and qualified for the program's first and only NCAA Tournament.
Including Saturday's meeting with the Vikings, Green Bay has seven matches on its 2013 schedule against opponents who played in the 2012 NCAA Tournament. The Phoenix faced No. 23 Ohio State and Liberty at the NIU Invitational, and played a pair of road matches at Northern Iowa on Sept. 14. Green Bay then welcomed Marquette to the Kress Center for its home opener on Sept. 17, and following Saturday still has one match remaining at defending league champion Cleveland State on Nov. 15.

Coinciding with Breast Cancer Awareness Month, Green Bay's student section – the Green Bandana Brigade – will be raising money for breast cancer awareness and research by shaving heads on Friday from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the University Union across from the Phoenix Bookstore. Members of the volleyball team will be in attendance to support the cause, and the first 100 students at Friday night's game will receive a free pink bandana to wear with their traditional green bandana. All fans are encouraged to wear pink to the match, as well as write their names on a pink Phoenix for just $1.
Green Bay is back on the road next weekend to begin the second half of its Horizon League schedule. The Phoenix travels to Oakland on Friday, Oct. 25 for a 6 p.m. meeting with the Golden Grizzlies, and then heads to play Wright State the following day at 4 p.m.

It all started with a mix. Well, more accurately, it started as a remix.
For both Richard Norris and Erol Alkan, these two young Londoners started out, by themselves, as Djs, Alkan focusing more on dance and electronic music, Norris befriend Joe Strummer and playing on some of the Clash maestro's latter-day creations. It wasn't until 2006 that, after having rejiggered some tracks under his own name, Alkan began using the Beyond the Wizard's Sleeve moniker. Norris had joined in, and the group, gaining notoriety for productions of artists of both the underground (Midlake) and the mainstream (Franz Ferdinand, The Chemical Brothers) variety, started making the name for themselves. EPs and singles would trickle out here and there, but outside of 2008 compilation of their earlier recordings, nothing concrete.
What a joy it is, then, that The Soft Bounce is here, and goodness is it a mishmash of so many varied things. From the hippie-friendly go-go bounce of "Creation" to the '80s synth homage "Diagram Girl" to the ambient instrumental "Tomorrow, Forever" to the string-driven mod number "Door to Tomorrow", The Soft Bounce encompasses so much but still originates from the group's clearly-defined psych-friendly aesthetic.
Thus, to help celebrate the occasion, the two Wizards themselves answered PopMatters 20 Questions, revealing a love of truffle oils, an affinity towards author John Higgs, and some remarkably practical advice for handling life's problems.

Gerard Damiani, AIA, NCARB, and Debbie Battistone wanted their new live/work locale to embrace Pittsburgh's urban fabric. So they scouted for an empty lot close to downtown, eventually settling on one with a view of the city. They grabbed the prospect for their new second-floor studio, which has the building's only street-facing window. "I liked this idea of an architecture studio with a big window into the city," Damiani explains. "It's the eye of the architect looking at the neighborhood."
The ample glazing lets the husband-and-wife team forgo artificial lighting during the day—a big plus for the eco-conscious firm. Materials also were chosen for their low-impact practicality. For desks, plan racks, a printer shelf, and a model display table, Damiani used maple butcher block "with a thickness that could cantilever, so pieces fly into the space."
The studio's 390-square-foot layout is no bigger than the couple's first live/work space, even though the house is twice as big as their previous flat. "We decided to keep the square footage the same," Damiani says, "with the idea that we would live more than work—although that part hasn't really worked out!"

Quote:First, i'd like to say thanks to the developers and the forum members. XBMC is a great media center software and the amount of information on the forum, while overwhelming, is extremely helpful. Since i've received so much information from the forum, i was hoping this might help someone else with a Harmony remote.
While searching for information regarding the Harmony remote and keymapping, i found a post on the Logitech forums. When inputting a new device using the logitech software and the manufacturer as microsoft, the model can be put in as MCE Keyboard. This doesn't show up in the menu, but is available when typed in. I then mapped the harmony keys to keyboard strokes within the Harmony software. I can now use the remote with XBMC without Event Ghost or any other keymapping software running.
I am still trying to learn more specifics of how XBMC works so that i can fine tune my key mappings. I have not yet figured out a way to get the Harmony to output a double key press. If i can figure out a way to do this, XBMC could be started using a hotkey combination. If anyone can help, i would appreciate it.
EDIT by Zag for a proper guide (November 2012)
Step 1
Load up the Logitech software

Step 2

On a recent trip to my hometown, Natchez, MS, right across the Mississippi river from Louisiana, at 10 PM in the middle of town, I hit a deer - luckily I was going 15 miles an hour - the 8 point buck paused and then ran up into the grounds of an antebellum home. The car, however, was a mess, so I called the police. The first policeman who showed up said,"M'am, I'm not here to write up the report - I just wanted to get that deer."Linda T in Atlanta (and not in Mississippi hitting deer!)
was that the house way up on the hill overlooking the river?
My daughter saw the deer pause to shake off the hit and then bound up the hill to the grounds of Hope Farm.
Also a way to measure distance in a truck south of I10 is by 6 packs :shock: :shock:Keith

I am a noob when it comes to swapping head units, however I have gathered information from this site as well as Crutchfield.
I have a 2011 with the standard HU and I am looking to upgrade to a GPS, touch screen unit. I have discovered that I can use either single or double din. My objective is great functionality as well as nice fit and finish without breaking the bank. I would also really like to maintain factory blue tooth buttons if only so that the buttons on the wheels aren't both ugly and useless.
Single DIN would give me a flip out touch screen, so for anti-theft purposes might be less appealing to thieves...i guess? However I am not sure how it would look in the dash. I am nervous it will look out of place.
The double DIN HU look as though they will look more like a stock unit and I won't have to worry the flip out screen. However they are usually more expensive, and from what I have read you can get a single DIN flip out for half the cost of a double DIN, and the single's are usually reviewed better.
ANY input is welcome. I apologize if this has been discussed ad nauseam and I just haven't found it.
Thanks in advance!

The Champions League Group Stage draw pitted Arsenal with Marseille, Olympiacos and Borussia Dortmund.
The draw signals the return of Euro Watch, our weekly check on the progress of Arsenal's European opponents in their domestic leagues.
Ergotelis 2-3 Olympiacos
Saturday, September 24
Olympiacos continued their 100 per cent start to the season with a 3-2 win against Ergotelis on Saturday. Kevin Mirallas and David Fuster put the visitors two goals to the good, before Diego Romano pulled one back for Ergotelis. Marcano made it three for Olympiacos, before Romano hit a late second to set up a nervy finish. But Arsenal's next opponents in Group F hung on for the win.
Mainz 05 1-2 Borussia Dortmund
Saturday, September 24
Borussia Dortmund grabbed a late victory against Mainz on Saturday thanks to Lukasz Piszczek's 90th-minute winner. Nicolai Muller had put the home side ahead in the 33rd minute before Ivan Perisic put Dortmund onto the comeback trail in the second half. The win sees Jurgen Klopp's side rise to 8th in the league table.
Valenciennes 1-1 Marseille
Saturday, September 24
Marseille continued their steady rise back up the Ligue 1 table after a disappointing start with a 1-1 draw away at Valenciennes on Saturday. Souleymane Diawara handed Marseille the lead in the 16th minute but hopes of all three points were shattered by Jose Saez's 92nd-minute equaliser.

Personally, I think it's too little too late. Most of the comments are right on and bring up some really good points.
Views: 850
apparently Microcosm didn't like what people were saying, so they deleted all the comments. Luckily I saved them all:
Derek Neuland 0 seconds agoNot true regGreg, if Microcosm had addressed and cleared a lot of this up ages ago when they were first confronted about this, I personally would feel better about them. But sadly, they continually disregard the thoughts and requests of the people they have wronged and have used tricky wording in their statements in order to save face.
Doug Taylor 2 minutes agoI don't think I know Jessie or Adam, but Rio, I truly feel for you. Matt, too. I know that you walked on stage in the middle of something and had no idea what was going on. I know that you have tried your best with what you were dealt and tried to move forward. But there's a reason I haven't gone to your store.I just can't.Have you ever been hated? Have you ever hated? I don't hate you, and I don't hate Joe. Hating is something that takes too much of a person, and I don't recommend it.Instead, I just try to understand how I feel, and I think that your well intentioned message is music to my ears.... four or five years ago. I do not know what has prompted this message, but I think of the trail of wreckage, and I can't help but think that the end has come already.It reminds me of a country western song where the guy comes back, hat in hand, freshly shaved and sober, pleading to a second story window: "I've changed, darling! It's the real me! I'm back!"A woman's voice shouts back: "Back again? Well just a minute......" the shutters open and two boots come flying down, nearly hitting him in his head."You'll need those to put the miles between us so sorely deserved. I've changed, too, for I'm not the kind of girl that let's the wolf back in. Now, GIT."If it's truly quitting time at Microcosm, I suggest getting a new job as well, or maybe going back to school. I hear college is nice this time of year, maybe even better in the fall with all the leaves changing color. Can't speak for Bloomington, but you can just about live on financial aid in Oregon if you're thrifty. Even more financial aid is available for individuals over 24.There is so much I don't understand about these Microcosm communiques. Each one posted leaves me with fifty questions, or feeling even more confused than before. I don't understand waiting until two days before Cindy's deadline to post something on anarchist news, let alone ANYTHING important on that site. Why feed internet trolls food they have never tasted before? Why not here instead? People obviously read this site.I am curious about what happens in the background that nobody knows except for the people that don't want it revealed. I am weary of the very thought of dealing with people, such as Rasmussen, as mediators that survivors have already declined to work with. I am irritated that the problem is still bracketed with "accused" instead of "acknowledged" or "identified". Even "self-professed" would be better.I try to help when I can, and it is very difficult. Sometimes I feel like I have done a poor job. Other times, I feel like I tried to put out a forest fire with a squirt gun. This thing hasn't really died, but life has got along well enough with really having to deal with "Microcosm Madness" all the time.Alex has been a true friend to me, and I would be remiss if I couldn't try to match that. I guess it is one thing to stick up for your friend, but it is something else entirely if your friend makes you constantly have to apologize for their behavior, or "almost" apologize, which is even worse. Think about that.--- Doug Taylor
regGreg 12 minutes agoWho did Rio, Jessie, Adam, and the various authors, volunteers, etc. abuse?Think of how much more you could actually be helping victims of abuse (both in and out of your 'radical' circle), if this energy was direct to that goal instead of pushing forward a trial-by-mob on a zine distro and publisher based on it's (previous?) relationship to an asshole.It's too little too late for many of you because there was never enough that could be done in the first place. If that's the case you're not here to build or better anything anyway. You're here to help strangle the last bits of life from a project intended to push and grow a medium you purport to love. If it isn't then maybe you should stick around to help microcosm be better than it could be otherwise.Sounds like Rio, Jessie, and Adam are trying to put out their hand and it's being filled with spit out of practice and stubbornness.
ManDuh 1 hour agoThis is the most victim-blaming bullshit I've read in a long time, especially the fourth paragraph. Doesn't sound like anyone in Microcosm wants to take responsibility for anything they've done. I knew there was a reason I stopped doing business with this organization.
Nate. 1 hour ago"This whole situation from beginning to end is the perfect example of what happens when people of positions of power and privilege in the radical community are left in those positions and aren't challenged because people refuse to support each other."Or because they are scared of losing their jobs.Whateve, Sparky is my homie and it really infuriated me to watch her struggle with this from the outside, and see a collective that actively promotes(!) confronting abuse WITHIN THE SCENE (or whatever) get railroaded by ONE SHITTY DUDE! Who did the EXACT same thing in another city with a different person!You guys are fucking politicans man, you can't trust anything you say.Gimmie my zines back, you people are ridiculous.I honestly wanna see this collective go down. I mean the least people can do is not support this kind of hypocrisy. They had a MILLION chances to do it right, and they didnt even come close. They didnt even try! I think if this whole shitshow went public, anybody would be shocked and enraged at how poorly this whole process went.I say boycott, this issue hasn't been taken seriously at all."the collective believes that ostracizing someone isn't a healthy, restorative response, and we've struggled with accountability being more than a radical judge-and-jury trial."^Wow i wonder how the victims who got booted from this collective feel. Ostracized? Whatever, this statement is fucking WEAK.I dont think theres anything left to say except BOYCOTT MICROCOSM.Love the rest of yall. Thats it.
microcosm 2 hours agoAs a member of Microcosm for 4 years and a former partner of Joe Biel, I am sad to say that I no longer support Microcosm Publishing. I cannot support a group of people who so adamantly claim to oppose abuse, but in practice have let it continue for years.

Derek Neuland 2 hours ago"organizational refounding" sounds like "let's try to dig ourselves out of the hole we're in"
pollyvomit 2 hours agoI am really glad y'all have decided to work on this FINALLY and release a statement but this for something that has been going on for years that a lot of microcosm employees witnessed first hand, it really took y'all 5 years to work on your shit?As someone who has worked in collectives for years, there is usually a understanding in the radical community and resources readily available (that even MICROCOSM HAS PUBLISHED) that talk about how to support survivors, and deal with the topics of transformative justice, accountability, anti oppression work, patriarchy, abuse, etc.I know it's not easy especially when people are involved in the same collectives/projects. but it NEEDS to be done, when abuse is happening IT IS ALL OF OUR JOBS AS COMMUNITY MEMBERS TO HELP STOP THE CYCLE AND SUPPORT SURVIVORS AND HELP AGGRESSORS CHANGE.This whole situation from beginning to end is the perfect example of what happens when people of positions of power and privilege in the radical community are left in those positions and aren't challenged because people refuse to support each other.as a business that engages in the selling of radical leaning goods you have to practice what you preach, this just makes you look really bad and untrustworthy, like you're just in it for the money.also "As abuse creates cycles of hurt, it's been easier for those involved to put up a wall for personal protection rather than create resources for healing" this sounds like victim blaming, while it's up to survivors to state their needs and boundaries around the healing process you should respect their level of involvement. you can't expect survivors to orchestrate an accountability process, such as you can't expect a nonwhite person to teach a white person about anti racism, its not their fucking job. also using the word "accusing" makes it seem like you don't believe that joe has committed abuse, its just in bad form.but i wish y'all luck in what you do and hope that the collective thrives. if you need help with the collective side of things there is the US Federation of Worker Co-operatives. there are also resources in and around portland.
alexwrekk 2 hours agoI also find it ridiculously hilarious that my tattoo shows up next to my name when I post. So, I think I'll do it again.
alexwrekk 2 hours agoSo, are there only 3 "collective" members now?So, is this the public statement or is the one posted here:http://anarchistnews.org/?q=node%2F13086 at the very end of last year? Is that one also valid? And why was it posted on that site?Too little too late, indeed.
punctual 2 hours agoDear Rio, Jessie, & Adam,I don't really understand why you can't let Joe do some apologizing rather than letting him use your words as a scapegoat for those he should TAKE RESPONSIBILITY for.You should expect to try to bandage some wounds, and you shouldn't have to shoulder an apology on someone's behalf (which equates to just the same amount of cowardice)....
Derek Neuland 3 hours agoxThe term "too little too late" comes to mind. Also, if you're all for transparency, why is there no mention of the fact that Joe Biel is still an employee at Microcosm.Also, stop using the chainring heart design!
From a business standpoint though, it's smart not to have comments on your businesses website, especially ones that will generate controversy or speak badly of your business. They should have been smarter and not allowed comments in the first place, who allows comments to a public statement or press release? Any business that posts comments or has forums moderates comments, they should have at least had the foresight to do that. They set themselves up for criticism by first allowing comments and then for more criticism when they took them down, not very savvy on their part.
Dan - If that is what people want then they have to show it. Why do you think that I posted the thread about distros? I know that I am not getting anywhere near enough business to even consider it worthwile to be a wholesaler. I have to admit that I am not much interested in that aspect though.
If people want more choices then they need to act upon that and support those of us who are out there being the other choice!
Dan 10things said:
If it's a little too late, do you think any other distro or collective is ready to step up and take their place? I love that there are tons of smaller/DIY zine distros out there to keep the zine community alive, I did one myself for many years. But I really feel for zines to thrive there needs to be a few bigger distros and publishers with great distribution networks. There was a time when we could turn to one or two zine distributors to get our zines into record stores, book stores and zine stores throughout the States (or in the case of Clint at Tower, throughout the world). While about every big distro has failed, usually another has popped up to take it's place. Microcosm has been that distro for many years, if they fail because of this, who's ready to step in a run a big distro full time?
Sure, Microcosm allowing comments on the post in the first place may have been problematic. It is also the easiest way to, you know, be transparent and"open the conversation" as they expressed in the statement. They may be a business but a bulk of that business is selling to people with radical politics who should expect them to walk the walk. With that being said, I have several issues with the victim blaming excuse letter starting with the first sentence using the term "accusing" really? They say they don't want a judge and jury trial, but that's the language they are using. I find it an interesting phrasing that they say they care that the abuse was "named" and noticed that they never actually acknowledge that our (Sparky and my) experiences are/were valid or that, yes, Joe has issue with abuse and manipulation. Actually, in the letter posted last December, they did acknowledge that. Why not restate that?
As a survivor of emotional abuse, I am offended by this statement:
As abuse creates cycles of hurt, it's been easier for those involved to put up a wall for personal protection rather than create resources for healing.
Really? After all I have gone through it is somehow my job to create a resource for healing for other people? Oh, I'm sorry, I was too busy working on shaking off the ghosts of abuse, building back my self worth and learning to form healthy relationships again. I didn't know that I somehow had more of a responsibility.
As for Joe stepping down, I don't buy it. I'm sorry,I just don't. Someone I know e-mailed Microcosm to ask about it. He's not really leaving, he's just not a voting collective member. I'll bet that means he still has his hands in just about everything he does now but they are trying to paint a pretty picture, aren't they? and I see "Non-Adherence Policy" is just like saying "We don't really care. We don't think this is important. We don't have the time but we have this really corporate sounding term to hide behind even though we distribute lots and lots of things that express that we really do care about radical politics, feminism, and supporting survivors of abuse."
Something else that concerns me is that there are only 3 people who signed the letter. Isn't the collective supposed to be 6 or 7 people? Where are the other members? Did they quit? Where they fired? It seems really suspicious to me.
The weird paragraph about partners of Joe being talented and creative was really awkward for me to read. The other partner they are referring to is Sparky. When I was in Chicago for the zine fest I met Sparky and we had a lengthy conversation about the situation. She expressed hope in the re-founding and so I kept quiet with criticism to wait and see what came out the other side. But with her statement:
As a member of Microcosm for 4 years and a former partner of Joe Biel, I am sad to say that I no longer support Microcosm Publishing. I cannot support a group of people who so adamantly claim to oppose abuse, but in practice have let it continue for years. This abuse was perpetrated against me, and I have remained largely silent in hopes that Microcosm could be salvaged. I no longer believe this is possible.With much love and thankfulness to all my wonderful zine friends that I've kept or made along the way,
-Sparky Taylor
Her name is obviously not signed to the statement Microcosm released and she clearly doesn't work for Microcosm any more. She said she didn't know how the other statement got onto Anarchistnews and she had fought to make a public statement something with substance that would show true effort at change. What made me most sad was hearing her experiences of emotional abuse that so mirrored mine as a partner of Joe and as a Microcosm worker and how easily it starts and how hard it is to stop.
Sparky and I were talking again and she wanted to know how to get the word out about her feelings about her experience with Microcosm. I offered her my support and to post her comment. Sparky is a smart, talented and creative woman and I wish her the best in whatever direction she goes from here. She and I both know that the only way is up.Overall, the Microcosm statement isn't worded how humans talk to each other. It is so intricately crafted as to say absolutely nothing of substance yet hits at hiding things. I wish I could say I wish them the best, but I no longer have any sympathy.
So all is forgiven if you sell appropriately; how many published anthologies per indulgence? I just don't buy it, dude.

Escalon, who broke his maiden while making his career bow on Aug. 1 at Del Mar, will be starting for the fourth time in the 1 1/16-mile Real Quiet. He finished sixth in the Del Mar Futurity two starts back.
The Real Quiet drew a field of seven, which will line up as follows from the rail out:
Mark S the Cooler, with Michael Baze up, will carry 115 pounds; When We Met, Mike Smith, 117; J P Jammer, Aaron Gryder, 117; Chocolate Candy, Garrett Gomez, 117; Danny Q, Martin Pedroza, 117; Escalon, Bejarano, 117, and Charlie's Moment, Joel Rosario, 119.
Mark S the Cooler, who has finished third and second, respectively, in two starts to date, will be running around two turns for the first time.
"I've always been real high on him," O'Neill said. "The added distance should be a real help."
Charlie's Moment broke his maiden in his third start at Del Mar on July 26, finished fourth in the Best Pal, then won the Gateway to Glory at Fairplex Park. He was beaten a nose while making his most recent start in the Jack Goodman at Santa Anita Park and tops the field with $108,450 in earnings.
Chocolate Candy, a son of Candy Ride who is trained by Jerry Hollendorfer, broke his maiden while traveling one mile in his most recent start.
When We Met beat Mark S the Cooler while breaking his maiden on Oct. 19 at Santa Anita; J P Jammer won his career debut before finishing fourth in the Cal Cup Juvenile in his second start, and Danny Q followed up his maiden win with a third in the Barretts Juvenile and a sixth-place finish in the Cal Cup Juvenile.

Well after years and years of studying clone armor, I'm finally getting into to swing of things. I decided to go with the 41st Elite Corps color scheme. Here's a sneak preview of that my armor will look like.
I also repainted a Kotobokiya 501st clone trooper figure and made the radio back pack. I will use this for reference. I studied the paint job on this clone for months. I think it's pretty accurate. If anyone knows anything I'm missing please let me know.
This is my what I have so far. The finished helmet and blaster. I'll have the final armor completed by C4
And here's the rest of the images.
Let me know what you guys think.

No to the dog park.
He's 8 months old. They go through a really freaky period about that time where they act like they're ready to beat up the entire world but really, they're just a scared puppy who suddenly realizes there's a lot in the world that seems scary. Some people call it the second fear period. When my dogs went through it, I just tried to laugh it off 'Please don't mind my puppy trying out her big scary dog act'
When you're out and about, play LOOK AT THAT, when something he takes an interest in something you think he might react to. Venus went off on a brass statue of a trumpet player when she was in her scary dog period. I laughed Silly Venus, don't be afraid of Sgt Pepper! Then I jumped up on his platform and smacked him. The next time we saw Sgt Pepper, she jumped right up and sniffed his shoes. She also reacted to strange new style park benches, boxes blowing in the wind and definitely other dogs (NO unacceptable! Bodyblock)
As far as humans, does he really have to socialize with everyone? Maybe that's just me because I have that over the top friendly german shepherd teenager that everyone calling her a lab mix (she's black) as a puppy rubbed off on her. She's 14 months now, we've spent the last 8 months or so conditioning her that if people want to meet her, they'll ask.
Probably not 'aggession' as much as a reactive dog.
One of the many reasons puppy classes are so great to continue thru the first year is to head off behaviors like this before they even start. Help our dogs to better fit into society while giving us the skills needed to help.
Have you started/continued with classes? May want to have a few privates so the instructor can get a handle on the situation.
8 Month Old
Hey everyone,
I have an 8 month old German Shepherd who is a real sweetheart. So cuddly, so friendly. I've been working really hard with training but I'm struggling with socializing him outside of the house on walks especially.
When we're out on a walk, he gets tough, his hair raises and he barks at people if we come across them. He has never bitten anyone or had any aggressiveness but we never get close enough to really see what would happen. This morning he was out in the front yard and our neighbour walked outside, and he started barking loudly at her but stood in place and didn't leave the property.
When someone comes into our house he barks at first but then is very friendly and comfortable around people. So I'm wondering how to tackle this aggression outside of the house? I wish I could ask people to bend down and pet him when we pass them on walks but I don't know how he would react, and everyone that comes over he already knows. Would taking him to a dog park help? We have another dog here, a one year old lab, and when other dogs come over to play he is great. I just need to socialize him with people outside of the house and am not sure how to go about this.
Any advice would be appreciated!

"Since I've been with the Reds in 1989, we've never had a farm system this loaded," Bowden said. "If we were the New York Yankees and had unlimited dollars, we could have traded for Colon, (Jeff) Weaver, Rolen, (Cliff) Floyd, (Kenny) Rogers and Finley and gotten them all -- and still held onto our top five prospects. That's an amazing statement."

I never stated it would be a problem for Cagewarriors to be able to afford said fee.
What I implied subtly was that BAMMA would actually do it.
Take it the next BAMMA show will be in Nottingham then?
From Graham Boylans twitter
1. Paul Daley's manager was NEVER involved in Paul fighting in liverpool, myself & Paul dealt direct with each other like MEN do.
2. Paul & I agreed terms for him to sign with CWFC but there was one sticking point that I would NOT give into because it wasn't right.
3. Paul wanted the WW CWFC World Title but if he won it he would refuse to allow any UK based fighter challenge for it. This is something under no circumstances I could agree to. How could I shatter the dreams of all the WW's signed to CWFC? "sorry mate I know your 10-0 now" but you're NEVER going to get a shot at the CWFC World Title because Paul wont fight UK fighters.I explained to Paul I wouldn't be involved in this because it wasn't right & I told him go else where that other promotions would gladly except this but I wouldn't allow CWFC be involved if a fighter puts his life into fighting & wants to be a CWFC champion he/she deserves a shot no matter where they come from. Everything else was agreed between Paul & I, five fights & a Title shot.
I wish Paul the very best with his career.Cage Warriors moves on as planned with 18 shows over the next 18 months. Love me hate me I'l always do whats right for the sport & I put the sport & all the UK WW CWFC rostered fighters before business & money.
I'm have no doubt there will be some big PR spin around this but this is the truth. Enjoy your day people.
Does this mean if Paul Daley were to win the BAMMA title that no British fighter is eligible for a title shot, whether they've earned the number one contender spot?
Based on the above, thats something BAMMA will 100% offer.
Providing Daley makes weight he'll probably fight for the WW title and then they'll get whoever he wants.
Bring over Fitch and let him grapplefuck Daley to see what happens
That said, isn't Wallhead the champion? and if that's the case they wont fight each other......
Why wouldnt he want to fight another UK WW tho...
Thats a very good point actually. Wallhead isn't the Champion but he is fighting for the title on the next card.
With that being said, he should beat Ellis and this means that they won't fight each other which is an interesting point to raise.
I know what Wallhead has been paid in the past on BAMMA and its ridiculous so wouldn't surprise me if Daley gets big cash.

Sally Ride, America's first female astronaut to enter space, died yesterday at the age of only 61. She had been fighting pancreatic cancer.
Though much of the news coverage this day after her passing is focused on her groundbreaking flight aboard Space Shuttle Challenger in 1983 or on her previously unknown female partner of 27 years -- both of which are important and interesting angles -- at The Commonwealth Club of California we also remember her crucial work championing math and science education for girls. That was the focus of her program at the Club seven years ago, titled "The Greatest Challenge Facing Humanity."

I forgot to bring reading material on the subway on the way to work. No headphones either. I could have just sat there, but I was too nervous. Instead, I wrote.
Here's some pictures of my office. Everyone forgave me for being such a dork. I wasn't brass enough to take one of my workspace and coworkers behind the bookshelves though. Even I have my limits. I'll leave that to my second day. ;)

Provo police have busted an elaborate drug ring spearheaded by an eighth-grade middle school student, who allegedly recruited sixth-graders to obtain the dope for him.
Provo Lt. Mathew Siufanua said Monday that eight 11-year-olds would leave Franklin Elementary and a 14-year-old boy, who attended Centennial Middle School, would hand them money and send them to a drug house near the school.
The kids would buy the drugs and bring them back to the teen. The teen would then use some of the drugs and sell the rest, Siufanua said.
"As payment for doing this, he'd get [the sixth-graders] high," Siufanua said, noting that the kids all knew one another through gang associations. He said the sixth-graders would get high using marijuana and spice.
Police suspect the ring has been operating since at least October, he said.
"We're glad we caught them, and we're glad we put an end to it," Siufanua said. "Basically this is organized crime on an elementary level."
Siufanua said that Centennial Middle School Resource Officer Dan Smith received information on Jan. 7 that the 14-year-old was allegedly engaged in drug trafficking.
Siufanua, who sent a news release Monday about the case, said police are searching for the drug house and the people who were selling drugs to the sixth-graders.
The 14-year-old was arrested on suspicion of felony drug distribution and child endangerment. He could potentially face as many as 150 counts of child endangerment because of the number of times he sent the sixth-graders to drug houses, Siufanua said.
"[The drug houses] are putrid," he said. "They're dangerous, usually with weapons and drugs."
Greg Hudnall, associate superintendent of the Provo City School District, called the drug ring an "isolated incident," since the students involved all knew one another.
The children involved in the drug ring will be suspended for breaking school policy, but the district also will arrange for them to get some professional help and counseling, Hudnall said. He did not say exactly how many students were suspended but said that it was "less than a dozen." The district also sent a letter home to the parents of all children at Franklin Elementary.

text: There has been some issues lately since my computer randomly freezes up or my monitor just goes black, forcing me to restart my computer. It's also getting noticeably slower as well. I built my desktop back in 2010 or 2011 and I figure it's about time I start dusting off my computer. I've never done this before so I don't really know what is a good brand to use. I'm afraid to damage my computer parts with a bad compressed air brand. Any ideas?

The die was cast long ago when the Daffin Concrete Mobile revolutionized the concrete producing industry. While the "round guys," or conventional ready-mix producers, continuously mix the product from the batch plant to the jobsite, the "square guys," or mobile or volumetric mixers, actually manufacture concrete onsite.
Throughout its history, the mobile mixer design has undergone little evolution. Each manufacturer has stayed true to the original blueprint:
"V-Box" containing a divided bin for sand and stone
- Conveyor
- Mixing auger
- Water tank
- Cement hopper
The two most important objectives for manufacturing a mobile mixer are to build an efficient, reliable, and safe mixer, and to develop a machine that is easy to operate and service. These may appear to be relatively easy goals, but enhancements have been slow to develop and slower to put into action.
Just look at the U.S. auto industry as an example of what can go wrong. In the United States, only three car manufacturers have survived. Foreign manufacturers took the lead in duplicating our basic designs and built more reliable and efficient models.
U.S. auto manufacturers didn't get much better until Japan copied our original ideas and incorporated new product/manufacturing technology, which enabled us to keep a car on the road for more than 100,000 miles. This inability to effectively compete resulted in 25 years of lost market share. We should learn from this experience and use our ability to share knowledge and experiences to create a superior product.
One challenge for fellow "square guys" is that there has been no platform to share information. Although some manufacturers belong to the Volumetric Mixer Manufacturers Bureau (VMMB), there is no forum for volumetric concrete producers to share information and ideas. While the Internet presents an opportunity to "globalize" such discussions, it doesn't appear any such Web sites exist.
As an owner/operator, I appreciate that manufacturers compete for our business with equipment that is designed to avoid infringing on another manufacturer's patented ideas. I recognize that ideas for improving equipment often are sparked through day-to-day activities. Such innovations could extend truck life, reduce replacement costs, and prevent costly downtime.
Problem solving
I've operated a mobile concrete business with my son Chris in Salem, Conn., for more than 15 years. It's become evident that operators worldwide have the same problems and issues, regardless of the unit's manufacturer. Through collaboration, some of my peers have successfully identified and solved many of the inherent challenges in the design of the units. Doesn't it stand to reason that collaboration among the thousands of volumetric concrete mixer owners and operators worldwide could lead to solving all of the challenges that have consistently presented themselves?
I have assisted with starting up and developing 10 new mobile-mix companies surrounding my service area. This localized think tank, or research and development test ground, has allowed us to avoid problems that were previously presented.
With thousands of volumetric concrete trucks operating worldwide, doesn't it make sense to share modifications and retrofits? This is especially true since upgrading components inevitably extends the trucks' life and efficiency. The result would be to allow operators to control the cost of materials while reducing unnecessary down-time for repairs.

|Sustainability and Management: From Research to Results
|Aimee Ellis is incredibly passionate about sustainability, and she feels honored to work at a college where it is a priority.
Before being hired by the Ithaca College School of Business, assistant professor of management Aimee Dars Ellis said she struggled to find a dissertation topic she found particularly exciting. It wasn't until she taught a Business Ethics class one summer at the Arizona State University that Ellis discovered her passion for corporate sustainability initiatives. Ellis became one of the first in her field of Organizational Behavior, which focuses on the way individuals or groups act within an organization, to research the reactions of employees to Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) programs requiring their participation. After observing employee attitudes to volunteer programs, blood drives, and recycling, Ellis found that this programming plays a significant role in the success of any business.
"Employees care deeply about participating in CSR programs, and those programs have a significant benefit to organizations, even if they don't necessarily affect the bottom line," Ellis said.
After turning her research into a paper, Ellis presented the results before an Academy of Management meeting. As a finalist for the prestigious Newman Award, which is bestowed upon the top three papers based on dissertation, she received international praise for her work. Today, Ellis brings her expertise to students at the business school. In her classroom, it isn't unusual for the concept of sustainability to weave its way into discussion. By incorporating her research interests into core class curriculum and developing an undergraduate elective, business sustainability and social entrepreneurship, she provides the outlet for her students to learn core marketing concepts and ideology from a unique perspective.
If it weren't for the business school's commitment to and leadership in sustainability, Ellis said she might not have chosen the faculty position. Because sustainability is a topic Ellis is incredibly passionate about, she feels honored to work at a college where it is a priority.
"During my job search, the school was building the new building, and that was certainly a selling point for me," Ellis said. "I am proud to be teaching at a business school housed in a LEED platinum building with a focus on sustainability. We are in a living laboratory where students can see the principles we discuss in the class in action."

GunnersGaming by Betsson, Arsenal's Official Betting Partner, give us the rundown on some of the markets on offer ahead of Sunday's return to action against Sunderland...
Arsenal will be hoping to put the disappointment of derby-day defeat behind them by bouncing straight back with a confident display against Sunderland. Despite impressive results like the 4-0 win over Stoke and 1-1 draw with Liverpool, the Wearsiders also find themselves at the wrong end of the table.
Arsenal are priced at 4/9 (1.46) to get that much-needed win but if last season's meetings are a guide then a low-scoring draw is perhaps the order of the day. The 0-0 at 17/2 (9.65) or less than 1.5 goals in the game at 7/2 (4.7) both look good value.
While last year's action may have been lacking in goals, both games were fiercely contested. There were six yellow cards in each game plus one red at the Stadium of Light. If you think there will be a red card on Sunday you can get 4/1 (5.0) while it's 5/2 (3.5) that a penalty is awarded.
GunnersGaming.com would like to wish the team all the best in Sunday's lunchtime kick-off and remind all new customers that they can enjoy three risk-free bets to start. You can also collect your £200 free casino voucher when opening an account.

As a kid, I loved the school days when my teacher cranked up the big-reel projector and treated the class to an episode of the You Were There series. This collection of black-and-white films transported us students back in time, allowing us to witness some of America's most important periods in history. Mesmerized by scenes of Washington crossing the Delaware, I wished I really was there.
I still have an insatiable appetite for the past. Like most genealogists, I want to learn about my ancestors' clothes, food, politics, jokes, games and music. But I no longer have to daydream about going back in time. I've discovered a "time machine" that lets me glimpse my forebears' day-to-day experiences firsthand: historical re-enactments.

Hi all
I'm just wondering whether anyone has done Venerable Bodhi's "A Course in the Pali Language": http://www.bodhimonastery.net/bm/progra ... nline.html
He recommends Stephen Collins "A Pali Grammar for students", "A New Course in Reading Pali: Entering the Word of the Buddha", by James Gair and W.S. Karunatilleke.
If so, what did you think of it?
Thanks for your feedback.

We're more concerned about building products than about the codes we write. The way we see and do it, software development is just one aspect of our job: In cooperation with our clients we turn ideas into new products, refine them, design them and put them on the market. Only when our products come to life and engage a user base we have reached our initial goal and laid the foundation for successful further development.
Our favorite challenge is treading new paths. We feel at home handling projects with clear goals that seem hard to reach or lie in uncharted territory. We practice agile and iterative development, we don't adhere to outdated plans and we are always ready to leave our comfort zone. This enables us to easily deal with the unknown and the unexpected.
Following our motto of building products rather than software, we are more of a partner to our customers than a mere service provider. Our effort exceeds the limits of technical and creative activity. We've been working with startups for many years and assisted in building numerous companies, introduced product development processes and have built and trained development teams. Because after all, we're entrepreneurs who engage in our clients projects as if they were our own.
Cultivating a partner-like client relationship is essential to us. This includes an honest exchange of opinions and criticism as well as full transparency regarding planning, expenses and results. We don't calculate projects with hidden budget buffers or aim to have clients become dependent on us, but strive for a trustful relationship and let the quality of our work speak for itself.
You want us to work at your location or as a remote team distributed across the globe? We're more than ready to go on a journey with you and know how to work in international teams spread throughout different time zones. You use Scrum, Kanban or @process? No problem, we're flexible and can adjust. Your field of industry is new to us? Even better. We love exploring new territories!
While we are happy to have long-term customer relationships, we also want our client's products to grow with them, so their team and product can become self-supporting. Once a project is grown up, we love letting it go. Not because we grow tired with it but because we're working towards making products sustainable. Once we've successfully enabled a company to independently advance their product, we are looking forward to tackling new challenges.

Was a good weekend
First time in forever I have actually hit a level cap.
i saw alot of the new ones when i went back for a brief stint on my old box, when this one one was offline.
didn't care for what i saw, i just stuck with what i knew, and that was being heavy weapon's guy and medic combined.
Episode 4 of Parasite Eve: The Third Birthday.
I really like the variety in this game.
The enemies have various attacks and need different strategies to take them out efficiently.
And there are various combat situations like being in a tank or helicopter.

Free personalized radio that
plays the music you love
Harry Connick, Jr.
Already well known within jazz circles, Connick entered the American consciousness with the soundtrack to 1989's popular film When Harry Met Sally. Director Rob Reiner had asked Connick to compose a soundtrack, and he recorded several warm standards ("It Had to Be You," "Let's Call the Whole Thing Off," "Don't Get Around Much Anymore") with a big-band backing. A world tour followed, and When Harry Met Sally eventually reached double-platinum status. With Connick a major celebrity, he diverged into an acting career, playing a tail gunner in 1990's Memphis Belle. That same year, he released two albums simultaneously: one, We Are in Love, was another vocal outing with similar standards as had appeared on When Harry Met Sally, while Lofty's Roach Souffle was all-instrumental. (Of course, the vocal album performed much better in the pop charts, hitting double platinum, while the instrumentals worked better with jazz audiences.) Connick toured again, this time with a big band, and recorded the group on 1991's Blue Light, Red Light. Though his celebrity decreased slightly during the mid-'90s, Connick's albums continued to reach platinum status, including 1992's 25, a 1993 Christmas album, and 1994's She. Connick continued his acting work with a starring role in 1995's Copycat (where he played a serial killer), and he married actress Jill Goodacre. In 1996, he had a brief role in the year's biggest blockbuster, Independence Day, but his album Star Turtle failed to connect with pop audiences. Come by Me, a return to big-band sounds, followed in 1999. In the new millennium, Connick cycled between albums exploring his jazz roots and those with songbook standards.
Interestingly, post-2001 Connick moved between two labels with albums getting released on both Columbia Records and saxophonist Branford Marsalis' Marsalis Music label. Among these were the big-band album Only You, featuring popular music from the '50s and '60s, and the more intimate releases Other Hours: Connick on Piano, Vol. 1 (2003) and Occasion: Connick on Piano, Vol. 2 (2005), which focused on Connick's instrumental abilities. As well as releasing albums, Connick continued to act, appearing regularly on the television sitcom Will & Grace before it ended in 2006. Ever devoted to his hometown, Connick was also heavily involved in the support and rebuilding of New Orleans post-Hurricane Katrina. In early September 2005, he organized the benefit telethon A Concert for Hurricane Relief on NBC to raise money for and draw attention to the beleaguered residents of New Orleans. Afterward, he worked closely with Habitat for Humanity in helping victims of Katrina. In 2007, Connick once again expressed his deep love for his hometown with the release of his New Orleans tribute album, Oh, My Nola, on Columbia Records. The similarly New Orleans-themed Chanson du Vieux Carré also appeared in 2007. A year later, Connick returned with his third holiday album, What a Night! A Christmas Album. He once again revisited a set of American popular song classics and contemporary pop standards with 2009's Your Songs. In 2011, as part of WNET's Great Performances series on PBS, Connick released the live album and DVD In Concert on Broadway. The concert featured Connick backed by his big band and orchestra performing at the Neil Simon Theater in New York City. In 2013, Connick returned with the funk-oriented album Smokey Mary. The album coincided with the 20th anniversary of the Krewe of Orpheus, the Mardi Gras super krewe that Connick co-founded in 1993. Included on the album was the song "Smokey Mary Boogie Woogie Choo Choo Train," which Connick penned in homage to the krewe's signature float. Also in 2013, Connick released the eclectic album of all-original songs, Every Man Should Know.
In 2014, Connick signed onto be a judge on the 13th season of American Idol. He stayed with the show through its final season -- the one that ran from 2015-2016 -- but he made plans to stay on television via a daytime variety show scheduled to appear in the autumn of 2016. While all these plans were being laid, Connick released the poppy album That Would Be Me in the fall of 2015. ~ John Bush

Showcase game for Tay?
This is the best thing that could happen to him at this point, get him off the point and let him relax and see things from another point of view. He is looking more like a point guard now that hes playing the 2 spot. Who knows a season or 2 of this and he may have the mentality to move back to the point and be very good. This is what he should have been able to learn under cnote..
This may have been the best game of the season. Everyone had a good game but I guess thats what it takes to blow out a team like Dallas. I have gained a lot of respect back for Q. Probably finally dawned on him that he will most likely get fired anyway at the rate things were going so may as well do things his way and chance that the new owner agrees. No more Stuckey at the point, Rip out - wonder what happened there? Just got sick of the whinning and compaining? Anyway. Monroe stole the show in my opinion. CV was huge off the bench during a critical time late in the 3rd where the Pistons usually fall apart. Prince was classic, Stuck and T-mac looked great in their new roles. Wilcox made a few mistaked but overall looked pretty good. Nice game from BG off the bench and Bynum held his own coming off that nice game on Sat. 3 game winning streak !!! wew hoo. When was the last time we had one of those? Maybe if they can put together a nice 5-7 game streak it would give us all hope.
I hope that dumars saw a dire need for PG spot( TMac won't be here). wins have spoken.
We're exactly at the midpoint of the season, we've played 41 games and it seems as if we finally have something we can build on and we're only 2.5 games out of the playoffs........I'M STOKED!!!!!!!
I'm starting to be a believer in the "Monroe's steals are his blocks" thing. He can't jump, but he has a quick hands and some lateral speed. His ability to dribble while running is also a unique quality for his position. Doesn't seem like we're missing Ben W. very much lately. Time to limit his minutes when he returns and try to get higher energy bursts out of him.
Good insight! Now JD should start working the magic. For Cuban to stop the bleeding in the second half of the season he needs a vet, at the right position, plays good D, with playoff experience that balances the floor for Dirk. Now the game balance with the trade is unequal concerning Butler and Tay. Oh, they are both rentals, but only one side has an active door and the address is on Maverick street. The Pistons need compensation for the rest of the year and they need to place a rental on a street called, Point Guard. I would be happy with the following rental exchange: Butler + Beaubois = Tay
Can Cuban afford to ship-off another promising PG?
Beaubois is not a PG. And why is everyone assuming T-Mac is leaving? We offer something nobody else does, the opportunity for him to freely play his game.
I told ya, he has very high bb iq in my opinion, he doesnt waste alot of energy without purpose. I like the comparison of his hands to hakeems. He is by far our best big at trapping the high p&r. He is defenitely gonna garner some scouting respect by the opponents. Now he just needs to work on his back to the basket moves and develope a hook of some sort to avoid being blocked on back downs. With the ball in his hands on the high post and our players cutting to the hoop he is showing his passing ability as well. Defenitely the brightest brightspot on the season so far.
At this point I believe that Ben Wallace is an emergency and/or situational player, but if Ben has a problem with Rip's DNP-CD's I wonder what his reaction is going to be when Q removes Ben from the rotation? Does Q have the guts? Will Ben accept the role? The tandem of Wilcox and Monroe are exposing just how inept the Wallace/Maxiel starting front court was.
So Rip DNPs even though the trade is off, and all our problems are solved ? Probably a short fix, then the confusing close losses again.
defenitely exposing it. I dont think Ben would have the same reaction if he were removed from the starting rotation though. He knows he is at the end and ready to retire, I think he would relish the role of mentor and help the youngster along...I think it would be hard on his ego but I think he can rationalize that it takes him to step back for the franchise to move forward and he bleeds red white and blue for the team. His case and rips are different, Rip can still play at a high level, he just chooses not to...does anyone think if ben were able he would play balls to the wall..thats the only way he knows how to play and thats why the fans here love him so much. I think ben will slide to the back seat and teach the bigs how to play defense and little tricks they can use.
Can't really say Bynum had a decent outing. We did not score in the time Bynum was on the floor in the first half. In the 2nd half, sure, guys around him scored, but Bynum himself threw the ball away more often than make any good plays. Now, compared to overplaying Stuckey and TMAC, which is easy to do now with them starting side by side, I agree somebody has to act as another point guard. Just wish it was not Bynum. If we are going to trade Rip away, it should be for a point guard, something we have lacked since we gave Billups away in one of Joe's cap space moves.
Got to add that knock-a-way by Monroe that TMAC picked up. TMAC gets credit for the steal - but Monroe is the guy who caused the steal.
I'd say even though Stuckey does not have a jumper that is consistent from long range, he does have a decent enough jumper for shorter shots - and plenty of point guards get by with just that.
True, his mid ranger is serviceable. The best thing about him is that he doesn't have the instinct to settle.
Terry also was knocking down shots. But since they moved him into the starting unit along side Dirk - Dallas had zilch coming off the bench. (Along with pretty much zilch besides Dirk and Terry.)
Bynum only played 18 minutes and 12 of those were a result of playing the entire 4th qtr when we pretty much kept the game out of reach and were able to rest T-Mac and Stuckey the entire 4th qtr. I think Will can deliver 12 minutes of PG duty to give guys some rest and limit the amount of time Stuckey has to spend at the point.
I thought stuck played the point very well in stretches tonight, he wasnt forcing anything and it looked smooth and easy for him instead of the childbirth he is accustomed to.
