Funerals provide surviving family members and friends a caring, supportive environment in which to recognize the death of a loved one and to share thoughts and feelings about that person. Funerals are the first step in the healing process. The ritual of attending a funeral service provides many benefits including:
It is possible to have a full funeral service even for those choosing cremation. The importance of the ritual is in providing a social gathering to help the bereaved begin the healing process.
At some time in our lives, most of us will make or assist in making funeral arrangements. This will not be an easy time, but we offer these tips for smart planning:
We consider it an honor and a privilege to assist you in arranging services that meet your individual, family, and financial preferences. We invite you to discuss freely and frankly with us any questions you may have regarding any and all aspects of our services, including our fees.
Provisions for payment are due at the time of arrangements. For your convenience, we accept the following methods:
Funeral directors are caregivers and administrators. They make the arrangements for the transportation of the deceased, complete all necessary paperwork, and implement the choices made by the family regarding the funeral and final disposition of the deceased.
Funeral directors are listeners, advisors, and supporters. They have experience assisting the bereaved in coping with death. Funeral directors are trained to answer questions about grief, recognize when a person is having difficulty coping, and recommend sources of professional help. Funeral directors also link survivors with support groups at the funeral home or in the community.
Every family is different, and not everyone wants the same type of funeral. Funeral practices are influenced by religious and cultural traditions, costs, and personal preferences. These factors help determine whether the funeral will be elaborate or simple, public or private, religious or secular, and where it will be held. They also influence whether the body will be present at the funeral, if there will be a viewing or visitation, and, if so, whether the casket will be open or closed and whether the remains will be buried or cremated.
Viewing is part of many cultural and ethnic traditions. Many grief specialists believe that viewing aids the grief process by helping the bereaved recognize the reality of death. Viewing is encouraged for children as long as the process is explained and the activity voluntary.
Embalming sanitizes and preserves the deceased, retards the decomposition process, and enhances the appearance of someone disfigured by traumatic death or illness. Embalming makes it possible to lengthen the time between death and the final disposition, thus allowing family members time to arrange and participate in the type of service most comforting to them.
No. Most states, however, require embalming when death is caused by a reportable contagious disease or when a deceased is to be transported from one state to another by a common carrier, or if final disposition is not to be made within a prescribed number of hours.
As more people are choosing cremation, funeral service professionals are striving to give consumers a true sense of what their many options are for a funeral service. Often funeral directors find that people have a preconception that they have fewer choices for a ceremony when selecting cremation for themselves or a loved one. Therefore, they request direct cremation and deny the surviving friends and family the opportunity to honor them with a memorial service. In actuality, cremation is only part of the commemorative experience. In fact, cremation can actually increase your options when planning a funeral. Cremation gives people the flexibility to search for types of tributes that reflect the life being honored. But, this doesn't mean that aspects of traditional funeral services have to be discarded. Even with cremation, a meaningful memorial that is personalized to reflect the life of the deceased could include:
Commonly, cremated remains are placed in an urn and committed to an indoor or outdoor mausoleum or columbarium, interred in a family burial plot, or included in a special urn garden.
Cremation also gives families the option to scatter the remains. This can be done in a designated cemetery garden or at a place that was special to the person. Today, cremated remains can even become part of an ocean reef or made into diamonds.
What happens during the cremation process?
The casket or container is placed in the cremation chamber, where the temperature is raised to approximately 1400 degrees to 1800 degrees Fahrenheit. After approximately 2 to 2 1/2 hours, all organic matter is consumed by heat or evaporation. The remaining bone fragments are known as cremated remains. The cremated remains are then carefully removed from the cremation chamber. Any metal is removed with a magnet and later disposed of in an approved manner. The cremated remains are then processed into fine particles and are placed in a temporary container provided by the crematory or placed in an urn purchased by the family. The entire process takes approximately three hours. Throughout the cremation process, a carefully controlled labeling system ensures correct identification.
Who can offer cremation and what about cremation societies?
Cremation is an option offered by many funeral homes. While some people may believe cremation is available only at a cremation society or crematory, this is not true.
A cremation society is simply a business that performs cremations. They may offer membership for a fee, which entitles you to a small discount on their price for a cremation.
At our funeral home, we can handle the cremation and help you design memorial services that are most meaningful to you. We have had many years of experience working with families who choose cremation. So, if you would like to discuss cremation, or any other options, talk to us and ask for current prices and services. Remember, a cremation society is not your only choice.
What does a funeral home offer that a cremation society may not?
There are several factors to consider when choosing cremation and the service provider to whom you will entrust the care of your family.
· Our funeral home is proud to offer all types of funeral services to families in need, including both cremation and burial services.
· There are many choices available to you when choosing cremation. Direct cremation is one of those choices, and is often the most common option that low-cost providers advertise and offer in order to generate interest in their firm.
· Cremation societies are generally low-cost providers that require a membership fee as part of providing service to individuals. Our funeral home does not require membership fees, and you do not need to sign up ahead of time to receive our professional service.
· Our costs are clearly stated for any family who chooses to use our services. Our direct cremation option, without any attendant rites or ceremonies, includes removal, local transportation, the cremation process, and the necessary service of our professional staff for completion of the cremation and paperwork. Our direct cremation fee can also include the price of the alternative cremation container if your family wishes. (The crematory requires an acceptable alternative container. Our staff can provide additional information regarding the cremation container.)
· Our funeral home offers the option of pre-paying for cremation. If you pre-fund your cremation service with us, all funds invested are TAX FREE and you will receive compounded annual growth. (Be aware that some cremation societies may issue a 1099 interest statement that you will need to present to your tax preparer declaring your growth as taxable income.)
· We provide immediate assistance to families who need us and we are here to help you with all of your questions, including probate, social security, Veterans services and more. Unlike others who may not be staffed as we are, we can provide round-the-clock assistance and answers to any questions you might have.
· We are your local funeral home. Many times, we know the families we serve and we strive to give every family the care and compassion we would want for our own loved ones. We provide the personal, attentive, and compassionate service your family deserves. Our care extends beyond the service to our ongoing Family Care Program, Support Groups, as well as community seminars and events to help families through the grieving process.
· If necessary, our funeral home reserves the right to match any competitor's prices if you will present the competitor's price list so each consideration can be discussed and addressed. In order to give your family the ability to make the most informed decisions, we would be happy to set up a time to visit with you concerning any questions you may have. We provide this consultation at no charge.
· We strive to make families aware of the personal and professional services we can provide. We want families to know we are here to help from the moment they need us, and through their journey of grief. Our expertise and experience in guiding families during the difficulty of losing someone they love is just one of the many reasons families value the services of our funeral home over those of a low-cost provider or cremation society.
Because cremation is an irreversible process and because the process itself will eliminate any ability to determine exact cause of death, many states require that each cremation be authorized by the coroner or medical examiner. Some states have specific minimum time limits that must elapse before cremation may take place.
It is essential that pacemakers and other medical devices be removed prior to cremation. They may explode when subjected to high temperature, which can be hazardous to crematory staff and equipment. In addition, any special mementos, such as jewelry, will be destroyed during the cremation process. Anything you wish to keep should be removed by the funeral director before the casket or container is transferred to the crematory.
Due to the irreversible nature of cremation, most states require a waiting period before the actual process may begin. Unless a body is embalmed, refrigeration is the only alternative available that will retard tissue decomposition. Refrigeration is a necessity that protects family and friends, the crematory operator and the general public from potential health hazards.
No. In most cases, it is your choice. It may depend on such factors as whether the family selected a service with a public viewing of the body, whether there is to be a funeral service, or whether there is refrigeration available. Embalming may also be necessary if the body is going to be transported by air or rail, or because of the length of time prior to the cremation.
No. For sanitary reasons, ease of placement and dignity, many crematories require that the deceased be cremated in a combustible, leak proof, rigid, covered container. This does not need to be a casket as such. What is required is an enclosed, rigid, container made of wood or other combustible material to allow for the dignified handling of human remains. The type of casket or container selected is really a personal decision. Caskets and containers are available in a wide variety of materials ranging from simple cardboard containers to beautifully handcrafted oak, maple or mahogany caskets.
There is a choice of very affordable cremation caskets that are completely combustible. The selection includes options from a simple pine or cloth-covered casket to a hardwood casket.
Many funeral homes offer a hardwood ceremonial casket for viewing or funeral services prior to cremation. The ceremonial (or rental) casket is specifically designed to provide a very aesthetically pleasing, affordable and environmentally prudent alternative to purchasing a casket for a cremation service.
No, cremation is simply a method of preparing human remains for final disposition.
It really depends entirely on how you wish to commemorate a life. One of the advantages of cremation is that it provides you with increased flexibility when you make your funeral and cemetery arrangements. You might, for example, choose to have a funeral service before the cremation; a memorial service at the time of cremation or after the cremation with the urn present; or a committal service at the final disposition of cremated remains. Funeral or memorial services can be held in a place of worship, a funeral home or in a crematory chapel.
Absolutely. It's completely a matter of family preference. Many times when a family is split regarding the decision to cremate, a compromise may be achieved by having a traditional service first - to be followed by cremation.
With cremation, your options are numerous. The cremains can be interred in a cemetery plot, i.e., earth burial, retained by a family member, usually in an urn, scattered on private property, or at a place that was significant to the deceased. (It would always be advisable to check for local regulations regarding scattering in a public place.) Cremation is just one step in the commemorative process—the preparation of the human remains for memorialization. Today, there are many different types of memorial options from which to choose. Memorialization is a time-honored tradition that has been practiced for centuries. A memorial serves as a tribute to a life lived and provides a focal point for remembrance, as well as a record for future generations. The type of memorial you choose is a personal decision. The limit is set only by your imagination.
You might choose ground burial of the urn. If so, you may usually choose either a bronze memorial or monument. Also available at many cemeteries are cremation niches in columbariums. They offer the beauty of a mausoleum setting with the benefits of above ground placement of remains. Many cemeteries also offer scattering gardens. This area of a cemetery offers the peacefulness of a serene garden where family and friends can come and reflect.
A columbarium, often located within a mausoleum or chapel, sometimes free-standing, either indoor or outdoor, is constructed of numerous small compartments (niches) designed to hold urns containing cremated remains.
As long as it is permitted by local regulations, the cremated remains can be scattered in a place that is meaningful to you. This can, however, present difficulties for your survivors. Some people may find it hard to simply pour the mortal remains of a loved one out onto the ground or into the sea. If you wish to be scattered somewhere, it is therefore important to discuss your wishes ahead of time with the person or persons who will actually have to do the scattering. Another difficulty with scattering can occur when the remains are disposed of in an anonymous, unmarked or public place. Access to the area may be restricted for some reason in the future, undeveloped land may be developed, or any of a host of other conditions may arise that could make it difficult for your survivors to visit the site to remember you. Even if your cremated remains are scattered in your backyard, what happens if your survivors relocate sometime in the future? Once scattered, cremated remains cannot easily be collected back up. Having your remains placed, interred or scattered on a cemetery's grounds ensures that future generations will have a place to go to remember. If remains are scattered somewhere outside the cemetery, many cemeteries will allow you to place a memorial of some type on the cemetery grounds, so survivors have a place to visit that will always be maintained and preserved.
Because it provides a focal point for memorializing the deceased. To remember, and be remembered, are natural human needs. Throughout human history, memorialization of the dead has been a key component of almost every culture. The Washington Monument, Tomb of the Unknowns and Vietnam "Wall" in Washington, D.C are examples of memorialization which demonstrate that, throughout our history, we have always honored our dead. Psychologists say that remembrance practices, from the funeral or memorial service to permanent memorialization, serve an important emotional function for survivors by helping to bring closure and allowing the healing process to begin. Providing a permanent resting place for the deceased is a dignified treatment for a loved one's mortal remains, which fulfills the natural human desire for memorialization.
Yes. The remains are normally placed in an urn. Most families select an urn that is suitable for placement on a mantle or shelf. Urns are available in a variety of shapes, sizes and materials.
The cost depends on the type of permanent memorial, location of the memorial, urn and placement selected.
Some religions prefer cremation; some do not recommend the practice; most permit you to choose. Should you have any questions or concerns, we suggest you speak with a member of your clergy, or contact your local prearrangement provider.
We can assist you with the necessary information for a funeral or memorial service with a cremation. For more technical information about the cremation process, we encourage you to view information online at the National Funeral Directors Association.
Being green in funeral service is a natural progression of today's American eco-consciousness. Consumer lifestyles and values, whether environmental, spiritual, philosophical or conservation oriented, are reflected in consumer attitudes toward products and services in the market and affect decision making. This includes attitudes toward death and funerals. Green funeral choices are expected to grow in popularity in the U.S. as this eco-consciousness grows.
As with the concept of "green" in general, green in funeral service means practicing environmental consciousness and being eco-friendly. It encompasses green funeral homes, green funerals, and natural burial. Today, funeral directors have the opportunity to adopt green practices to meet the needs of the families they serve.
A green funeral incorporates environmentally-friendly options in order to meet the needs of a family requesting a green service. A green funeral may include any or all of the following: a small gathering in a natural setting, use of only recycled paper products, locally-grown organic flowers, carpooling, organic food, no embalming or embalming with formaldehyde-free products, the use of sustainable biodegradable clothing, shroud or casket, and natural or green burial.
In natural burial, the body is buried, without embalming, in a natural setting. Any shroud or casket that is used must be biodegradable, nontoxic, and of sustainable material.
Here are a few of the most common questions and answers regarding green funerals.
In a purely natural or green burial, the body is buried, without embalming, in a natural setting. Any shroud or casket that is used must be biodegradable, nontoxic, and of sustainable material. Traditional standing headstones are not permitted. Instead, flat rocks, plants or trees may serve as grave markers; some cemeteries use GPS to mark the locations of gravesites. A "natural or green burial" may also simply mean burial without embalming, in a biodegradable casket without a vault, when permitted by a cemetery.
A green cemetery is a burial site that does not permit vaults, non-biodegradable caskets or embalming chemicals. It uses no herbicides, pesticides or irrigation for maintenance of the cemetery grounds. Any material used at a green cemetery must meet the goal of replenishing the earth. There are cemeteries in the U.S. that accommodate both conventional burial practices and vaultless burial on their premises; others incorporate some features of a green cemetery such as sustainable landscape design and natural memorialization.
While most cemeteries in our area have not yet embraced the concept of green burial, we believe it may happen in the future. As funeral directors, we regularly visit with cemetery officials, and we encourage the offering of all options to families who choose burial.
In general, cremation is not considered "green" because the cremation process uses nonrenewable fossil fuels, even though cremation does use fewer resources than conventional forms of disposition. Cremation also produces airborne emissions. However, cremated remains do not need to be interred in a cemetery, which reduces land use.

hmm you can use a aluminium "perfil" sorry i dont know the name in english, used in frame windows or mirrors frames ... damn i need to take a pic :)
I "channeled" out an aluminum rf stalk with my dremmel, and covered it with an aluminum strip to make this.
That...is...COOOOOL. That is very much like the idea I had, but I like your addition of the laser. I think it must have been your post I read on another thread. That is the laser that radio shack no longer has right? I'm gonna have to rip into a laser pointer I guess. If you can get any more of those RS lasers, I'll buy it in a heart beat.
Right. I had gotten some for a few other members here, but I don't think I can get any more. If I do find more, I'll keep you posted.
Hey guys did a little (very little) searching and it appears this hard to find laser module is still avilable on the RadioShack web site. Then in the search box up top type in this item number "277 1101" all you have to do is create an account and order away. Hope this helps.
Damn! That is Sweet!
Thanks. It looks best in low light, as you scan the room with the laser.
Excellent! Thanks for the info!

Daily Caller Doing Damage Control After Holder's Call-Out
Blog ››› ››› MATT GERTZ
Attorney General Eric Holder apparently struck a nerve yesterday when he accurately called out the Daily Caller for effectively creating a movement of congressional Republicans seeking his resignation. Both editor-in-chief Tucker Carlson and reporter Matthew Boyle have since done damage control with extremely friendly media outlets, claiming that they are acting legitimately and attacking Holder for his criticism.
Boyle has led the website's reporters in a month-long effort to find Republicans willing to take a free shot at the Obama administration by calling for Holder's resignation, with the stated rationale being the ATF's failed Operation Fast and Furious. The campaign has led to nearly two dozen articles featuring calls for Holder's resignation from 51 low-level members of Congress, Republican presidential candidates, Sarah Palin, and congressional challengers, among others.
Carlson stopped by Fox & Friends' curvy couch this morning, accusing Holder of being "Nixonian" and saying that "we are not in control of the legislative branch." When co-host Gretchen Carlson asked the Daily Caller editor whether he thought Holder "had that reaction to your reporter because it hasn't been covered as much by the mainstream media," he noted that "our reporter Matt Boyle has written a number of stories on this," but never acknowledged the character of that reporting.
Boyle sounded similar notes in an appearance on NRA Radio (the NRA has called for Holder's resignation). He told host Cam Edwards: "To assume that we're 'behind' the calls for his resignation, I don't know how he can think that. All I'm doing is calling up congressmen and senators and asking them, and then whatever their answer is I print it."
He went on to say that "if he thinks that I have the ability to control what they say and what they don't say, that's unbelievable," adding, "I'd love to know what other conspiracy theories the attorney general can come up with about the media."
Boyle, demonstrating his trademark inability to stick to facts, went on to falsely accuse Holder of previously attacking a Daily Caller article:
BOYLE: By the way, it's not the first time Holder's attacked a story that ran in the Daily Caller on Fast and Furious. I mean, he did -- in that October 7 letter he sent to Congress, the first time he ever talked about Fast and Furious unsolicited, he sent a -- he referenced a story where Congressman Paul Gosar told me that administration officials responsible for Fast and Furious are equivalent to accessories to murder. And this is the second time now that Holder has attacked the Daily Caller for our reporting on Fast and Furious. I kind of wear it as a badge of honor, to tell you the truth.
Here's the passage from Holder's letter to which Boyle is referring. See if you can find the criticism of the Daily Caller.
I have watched for some months now as the facts surrounding Operation Fast and Furious have been developed on the public record. I have not spoken at length on this subject out of deference to the review being conducted, at my request, by our Department's Inspector General. However, in the past few days, the public discourse concerning these issues has become so base and so harmful to interests that I hope we all share that I must now address these issues notwithstanding the Inspector General's ongoing review.
For example, I simply cannot sit idly by as a Majority Member of the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform suggests, as happened this week, that law enforcement and government employees who devote their lives to protecting our citizens be considered "accessories to murder." Such irresponsible and inflammatory rhetoric must be repudiated in the strongest possible terms. Those who serve in the ranks of law enforcement are our Nation's heroes and deserve our Nation's thanks, not the disrespect that is being heaped on them by those who seek political advantage. I trust you feel similarly and I call on you to denounce these statements.
Holder didn't criticize the Daily Caller; he didn't even mention it. He called out Rep. Paul Gosar (R-AZ) for his comments -- which were reported by that publication -- but at no point turned his attention to the publication itself. Boyle's characterization of this being an example of Holder having "attacked the Daily Caller for our reporting on Fast and Furious" is flatly false.

I am searching the market for a electronic caller, not more then $300. I've looked at a few but I've got some questions....Using it just for predator calling.
The wildfire 2 is on the top of my list, but how loud does the single speaker get? I really like the FOXBANG and the remote setup.
Primos alpha dogg looks pretty cool, but I'm not sure about the battery time, 8 AA is a turn off too, also the way the remote is programed looks like a hassle the wildfire remote seems way simpler.
Primos turbo dogg? what do u say?
If I'm missing any please give me some advice. Your personal experience with these or other callers would be great!
I would like to buy it soon..

I was almost involved in a death by vehicular accident during my morning commute recently. And it's all because of the green movement.
How did I nearly perish? A biker almost ran me down as I walked on the bike/hiking path behind my house. He was traveling way too fast, was laden with too large of a backpack to be safely balanced, and was on the wrong side of the trail. Fortunately, I jumped back out his path and lived to see another day.
I blame our society's newfound care of the environment for my near-death experience. Everyone is trying to reduce their carbon footprint. I work from home more often and have been jogging on the bike path instead of driving to the gym. I'm certain that my assailant was a former hippy who gave up driving so he could have his own green commute.
The problem with all this greenness is that it takes proper planning. The growing congestion on what was my secluded path shows what happens when everyone tries to avoid driving. This rail-to-trail path just isn't designed properly for high traffic volume. And who is willing to pay for the needed update?
I know our county can't afford it. The increased number of telecommuters, coupled with others who have adopted for non-traditional methods, have created a funding problem for Kane County, Ill. The treasurer just reported a 3% drop in the state motor fuel tax revenues disbursed to the county so far this year. The revenue drop is directly linked to the amount of fuel purchased. He expects the tax revenue to continue to decline.
Gas tax revenue is dropping across the nation. Since November 2007, Americans have driven 40.5 billion fewer miles compared to the previous year, the U.S. Department of Transportation says. This trend will continue. We are buying more fuel-efficient cars, riding buses and trains, and consolidating the number of trips we take.
The revenue shortfall from reduced gas purchases is even more pronounced at the federal level. In August, the Bush administration forecasted a $3.1 billion shortfall in the federal Highway Trust Fund. If you recall, it was only a few years ago when experts projected tens of billions of dollars of excess money in this same account.
This tax revenue shortfall is a real problem for our industry for three reasons. First and foremost, most DOTs will struggle next year to find the money for large capital projects. Second, those projects that governments do approve will probably focus on repair, a category in which little concrete is used. And third, any new funding will go toward developing and increasing mass transit capacity and to increasing the number of alternative commuting routes such as sidewalks and bike paths.
During this election year, I repeat my previous requests to support candidates who understand the importance of well-funded, balanced transportation infrastructure decisions. Otherwise, you or your business might be blindsided by ecologically minded groups of people going at full speed on a poorly designed path, touting a carbon footprint reduction that means less money for roads.

Discussion in 'Pistons and NBA' started by Buckeyes#1, Apr 19, 2007.
Darko does not equate to Pitbull
Who said anything about Ron Artest?
After this series, especially the 4th quarter. I can't imagine anyone thinking we won on this pick. But, I have a solution for how we can. After letting Orlando train Darko for a year, we sign Darko back in a sign-and-trade. Dead serious, Darko and JJ for Rip. We get to match Darko with Sheed. Those two would be unstoppable. Tay and Delfino play the 2/3 interchangibly, which would create matchup problems against almost every team. And JJ comes in as that sweet shooting spot shooter that Flip craves. The team would immediately be better defensively. Better rebounding. Younger And as good a shooter as Rip is, with the offense run through Darko and Sheed, we'd be an even better shooting team. And we'd have a bench of Flip, Amir, JJ, JMax, Acker/Blaylock, and the pick.
Here's the problem with that. Orlando wants Chauncey, not Rip. What are they going to do with another perimeter shooter without someone to get him ball? I hear what you're saying though. But the well was poisoned on this one. Darko has bad memories of the city, the coach, the organization, the media, and the fans. I'm guessing he would rather play Euro ball full-time than come back here. I'm not saying he should feel all this ill will, just that he probably does. Reddick would be a nice pick-up though.
This is a joke right? You can forget Darko coming back unless he is willing to play for the Mid-Level Exception. He wouldn't be a starter in Detroit, and he's not going to be paid like one to sit on the bench. We already learned our lesson on paying for play. In Detroit, the team plays for pay.
And why would we need Reddick? He's a complete defensive liability and hasn't been consistent with his jumper.
Obviously, this won't happen. But I think it would be a good idea. Rip seems to have peaked, and I think he is at his most valuble in terms of trade bait. After signing CB, this team is not going to have many options in upgrading this team, other than a trade. And I think Darko showed that he may not be a Bosh, but he does have the potential to be a pretty good Center. And good centers aren't cheap. As for JJ, he doesn't have to play good D. With Flip's zone, his lack of D can be covered by the other players. His ability to knock down the open shot, off the bench, would mesh perfectly with Flips O.
If C-Webb signs elsewhere or retires, we would be right back at Sq. 1. DD's not coming back; Darko's already outperforming Dice (who could conceivably opt out of his final year for a longer contract elsewhere); and next up on the depth chart are Nazr "cement gloves" Mohammed, Jason "6-5" Maxiell, and Amir "178 pounds" Johnson. If Detroit were willing to offer the full MLE and he didn't get offers from any other team in the NBA or comparable compensation from a Euroleague team, he would be our starting center next year.
Darko's qualifying offer is over the MLE. He's staying in Orlando. Whether it is for the price he wants, remains to be seen.
Does this sounds like a guy who would be a good fit for the Pistons? from the Orlando Sentinel
Darko's not staying. He's pretty much demanded trade me or play me. Orlando will do a sign and trade for GHills replacement. Pretty dumb, IMHO, they need a point guard, a head coach, and a bigman coach for Dwight. With the amount of turnovers he commits, poor fts, and complete lack of a post up game, he'll never be deserving of the "max" paycheck he's getting. And, no I'm not smoking anything, but considering Darko's offensive skills, passing abilities, and basketball IQ (I guess LB did teach him something), he's probably a better go to option, now, than DHo. Obviously, if Dwight can develop the barest minimum of a postup move, control the TO's, and hit at least 60% of ft, his upside is much much higher. But now, he's just a human dunking/rebounding machine. The good news is, Orlando will be in the lottery, and they have some good players that Joe might be able to steal as they panic to build around Dwight.
16...I'm glad to see you finally give LB some credit for Darko's development. All signs that I've seen point to Orlando matching any offer for Darko. Not too many teams with the ability to sign him.
In Dwight's defense, he does have a little Shaq-like shot put shot that he can make with either hand. Also, he has decent footwork and is quick enough to "drive" around defenders, even though they are already both in the paint. And thirdly, the guy dunks from places that other big need need finesse from. Still, he really is in trouble when his defender doesn't give ground... ala Sheed.
Whoa... 61% of the five thousand respondents to the poll said the Magic didn't need a coaching change.
I think it's admirable that Magic fans know their place. No coach should ever be fired if a majority of his fellow head coaches don't support the firing.
Aren't those the same guys who pick the all defense team?
I'm thinking that maybe they should wait until after the playoffs to choose the recipients of all these awards, MVP/ DPOY/ COY, etc. Is Mitchell coaching like the coach of the year right now? What adjustments has he made? Is Dirk playing like the MVP? This is all that matters, not the regular season.
b. hill is very big in the orlando community. the true basketball fans probably got outvoted by the retirees. i bet 90% of all pistons fans think b. hill needs to get fired for his coaching job this season. i won't give lb any credit for darko's basketball iq. he's a smart player and he always knew how to play basketball. he was the one throwing lobs, blocking shots, making the right pass and being unselfish right from the start. lb hurt darko's game more than anybody involved with basketball. darko should be the # 1 option on the magic. he's an inside outside threat to score. he's not a turnover machine like dwight. if he makes a turnover it's usually when he's being too unselfish. when darko misses a shot it's usually because he isn't sure if his coach will approve of it. darko being the # 1 option on the team will do wonders for darko's confidence and game. the biggest benefit of darko being the # 1 option would be the explosion in production from dwight. darko opens things up for him and actually looks for dwight more than himself.
Are you saying that retirees are not true basketball fans?
I think bball jay is being a little harsh when he says that retirees aren't real basketball fans. We may even have some retirees in this forum who would like to chime in here...I know a lot of them go to bed early so they might miss some games but a lot of them probably tape the games and watch them when they get up in the morning.

Hi everyone, I'm new to the board.
I'm a recently qualified TEFL teacher and have been teaching on and off (subbing) since I qualified.
Also I'm due to begin a private english lesson with a Russian man. His conversational skills are fine and he has no trouble communicating and so just wants to concentrate on grammar. I am at a loss of how to do this.
I did a test on him and now know what his weaknesses are. His grammar weaknesses range from stuff a beginner would learn to stuff that you wouldn't teach until upper intermediate. I have Murphy's grammar book (blue) but I want to know how to make the lessons more interesting as I don't want to just explain the grammar to him from Murphy's book and have him do the practice excercises, he could do this on his own. Does anyone know any grammar activities that work well on a one-to-one basis or where I could find out more information.
If you need more information as to his specific weaknesses I'd be happy to provide it.
Thanks in advance for your help

Unique vehicles are not something new to the [[Grand Theft Auto|GTA]] series, and are seen a multitude of times in [[GTA IV]]. Unique vehicles are usually already presented ingame, simply painted a unique color, or rare vehicles that are only seen on once during a certain mission. They can sometimes be very hard to get, as they are either mission related or they just appear as a one-time-only. '''Warning:''' Many unique colored vehicles will be resprayed to normal colors upon repair, you will never be able to revert back to the unique color in [[Pay 'n' Spray]]. Many of [[Stevie]]'s (if not all) [[Stevie's Car Thefts |car theft's]] are also unique. This list also includes special types of vehicles such as gang cars, police vehicles and so on. ==Cars== ===Roman's Taxi=== *The [[Roman Bellic|Roman]]'s Taxi is a black [[Esperanto]] with an emergency light. This may be the first special car you can get. It's easy to get, but after Roman's depot is burned down, the car is no longer available, as it gets replaced by a fleet of gray [[Cavalcade]]s. ===Merit=== *In the mission [[First Date (GTA IV)|First Date]], you are given a lustered silver [[Merit]]. You can save it when the mission is completed. ===Laundromat=== *The [[Laundromat (van)|Laundromat]] is a laundry van that only appears in two missions. The most easiest way to obtain it will the mission [[Hung Out to Dry]]. It can be found in the back of the laundromat, stealing it, however, will result in mission failure. *It's second appearance is in the mission [[Meltdown]], where it is used in a scripted sequence. This one can also be stolen, and if you are good at driving a van in a chase, you can complete the mission. ===Cavalcade=== *A unique dark grey [[Cavalcade]] replaces the Esperanto used by Roman's Taxi service once the player has unlocked the [[Middle Park Easter Safehouse|Algonquin Safehouse]]. However, the same driver, [[Mohammed]], will be driving it, and still will throw insults at Niko. However, unlike Roman's Taxi, there is no enhanced performance in this version. *A unique black tinted (the main color varies) Cavalcade with black rims is also available during the mission [[Deconstruction for Beginners]]. It is parked in an alley in [[Castle Gardens]] where [[Playboy X]] has left it with a supply of weapons. The player can drive this Cavalcade to a safehouse to store it, and still return to complete the mission. *A similar black-tinted Cavalcade is the target of one of [[Stevie's Car Thefts]]; this Cavalcade has a unique green undercoat and dark green trims. *[[Brucie Kibbutz]] will send you an e-mail, for his [[Exotic Exports]], for a Cavalcade. This Cavalcade is unique because of its deep matte red paint-job, black-tinted windows and black rims. ===Marbelle=== *A sky blue Marbelle''' '''appears in the first cutscene during the mission [[Clean Getaway]]. Later in the story, when Vlad tries to escape from Niko, he drives the sky blue Marbelle again in the mission [[Uncle Vlad]]. When he reaches the Humboldt River, he leaves the car and makes a run for it. This is the chance to take it and keep it. ===Blista Compact=== *A pure white Blista Compact can be stolen in the mission [[Clean Getaway]]. Also this is the modified variant of the Blista Compact which is normally red. To keep the car, drive it to your safehouse parking space and then commit suicide, which will result in mission failure, but the car will get stored anyway. ===Ruiner=== *[[Ivan Bytchkov]] owns a random iridescent color and yellow Ruiner which can stolen during the mission [[Ivan The Not So Terrible]]. When Ivan crashes his car into a truck, he will try to escape on foot - don't go after him just yet though. First, take the car to the end of the block to the south and park it where your will eventually get to Ivan. Or you can take the car and abandon Ivan which will lead to mission failure. ===Virgo=== *A red and black Virgo appears in the mission [[Concrete Jungle]]. It can be taken and saved at your safehouse. ===Feltzer=== *[[Gracie Ancelotti]] owns a special pink Feltzer that can be acquired in the mission [[I'll Take Her...]]. By either killing the driver after the end of the mission or firing a gun across the street from Gracie's house before meeting her. ===Coquette=== *A lustered black Coquette appears in the mission [[Payback (GTA IV)|Payback]]. To obtain it, simply follow the goons until they stop at the building. *The Coquette has a unique white-and-red paint job available, similar to that of the 1984-1996 C4 Corvette featured in the television series ''[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_A-team The A-Team]'' [http://www.famouscars.de/images/a-team/a-team.htm [1]]. This paint job, unlike most other unique paint jobs, can be [[Pay n Spray |sprayed]] onto any Coquette. *The Coquette also has another unique paintjob. Like the one above, it can be sprayed onto any Coquette. It's a green and black paintjob, apearing black at some angles but green at other angles. ===Infernus=== *You have to steal an Infernus for [[Stevie]]. It is a unique gold color. Like many of Stevie's cars, they re-spawn after a while. It is located at Montauk Ave. [[Downtown Broker|Downtown]], Broker, but only if you got a text message from Stevie. *Also, after you completed the mission [[Buoys Ahoy]], [[Bernie Crane]] will call you to collect Deputy Mayor [[Bryce Dawkins]]' special orange Infernus as a gift. Like many other cars, the Infernus comes in two different variants (with and without Spoilers). [[File:Infernus-GTA4-BryceDawkins-front.jpg|thumb|The two possible paintjobs of the Infernus given by Bernie Crane for completing the "Buoys Ahoy" mission in GTA IV.]] ===Super GT=== *One uniquely colored Super GT appears in the mission [[Union Drive]] for [[Bernie Crane]], driven by [[Dimitri Rascalov]]'s henchmen. The paintjob is a metallic red, blue, green, gray, or pink, all of which are unique. *Another uniquely colored Super GT appears in a [[Most Wanted]] mission in which you are after a drug trafficker named Darren Covey. You find him and the five friends of his whom you must kill also on the second floor of a parking garage in Purgatory, with a few cars around them. One of these cars is a Super GT whose paint job resembles a mixture of [[Irish American Killers|Irish Mob]] green and sky blue not found anywhere else in the game. *What may be a third unique (if someone could please confirm the rarity of the paint job by using the Super GT cheat code, which is '''227-555-0168''', and going through all of the colors until one of the colors repeats, while checking to match sure that none of them match up exactly with this Super GT, that would be helpful) Super GT appears in one of [[Stevie's Car Thefts]]. It is in front of the 69 Exchange in Chinatown, Algonquin. ===Banshee=== There are several unique Banshee's in GTA IV. *A blue Banshee with grayer color than normal and a white stripe is requested by Brucie for his [[Exotic Exports]]. *A Banshee with yellow stripe and a orange paintjob is requested by Stevie. *In the mission [[Meltdown]] for [[Ray Boccino]], the car chase begins with the player driving a Banshee. This Banshee has a unique grey-a-bluish-green-stripe paintjob. ===Romero=== *A Romero appears in the mission [[Undertaker]]. This is the only time it appears in the entire game. To obtain it, steal it when the mission is done, but you have to be fast and alert, otherwise the driver will drive away and disappear. The Romero will also appear on the street, but only if you are driving one at the time. ===DF8-90=== *A lustered black/silver DF8-90 appears in the mission [[Crime and Punishment]]. It's in the driveway at Mikhail Faustin's house. You can save it if you want to. It comes in the three variants. *A parked DF8-90 without black-tinted roof and a light blue paint job can be found in a parking lot under the train tracks in the [[Hove Beach]] area in [[Broker]] as part of a stolen car delivery mission for [[Stevie]]. It sells for approximately $5,500 at Stevie's garage in [[Bohan]]. ===Comet=== *A bright yellow Comet is given to player as a racing car in the mission [[No. 1]]. After completing the mission, Brucie allows the player to keep the Comet. *A Comet with a unique mauve paint job is requested by Stevie for one of his [[Stevie's Car Thefts|car thefts]]. ===Subway=== *A [[Wrecks|derailed]] version of the [[Subway in GTA IV|Subway]] in [[No Way on the Subway]]. === Patriot === *A bright yellow Patriot can be acquired anytime after the mission [[Blow Your Cover]] for Playboy X but before his death. It will be parked in one of the RESIDENT PARKING ONLY spots outside his loft. To save it, simply drive it out of the car saving spot and drive it back in. *Two lustered silver Patriots appear in the mission [[Photo Shoot]]. *As part of Stevie's Car Thefts, there is a unique gold/orange Patriot with US flags on the sides. ===Cognoscenti=== *A baby blue Cognoscenti is wanted by Stevie. You can take and save it at a nearby safehouse and it should reappear. When Stevie calls for it, it should appear in an allyway, off Boydon Ave, Alderney City, Alderney. *A pearl white Cognoscenti can be stolen after completing Gracie Ancelotti's random encounter. It appears in the driveway at her house in Alderney City. === Sultan=== *A unique blue Sultan is wanted by Stevie. You can take it and save it. A new one will respawn. *A modified blue variant is used by Korean mob. Can usually be found in [[Alderney City]], in [[Alderney]]. *A Sultan RS can be found behind the abandoned house's garage in Westdyke at anytime. === PMP 600 === *In the mission [[Museum Piece]], there are three pure white PMP 600 "Sports" parked on the northern side of the museum. These PMP 600 "Sports" variant normally comes in complete black. This is the only time they appear in white in the entire game. *In one of Brucie's e-mail-based [[Exotic Exports]], Niko has to retrieve a vibrant maroon red PMP 600. ===Feroci=== *A modified version used by the [[Algonquin Triads|Triads]] called the JDM VIP can be acquired. They can usually be found in Chinatown. *A secondary version used by [[FlyUS]], which features an emergency light on the roof and the company colors. This variant can be found at the [[Francis International Airport, Dukes|Francis International Airport, Dukes.]] ===Vincent=== *A unique coloured dark green Vincent LX2007 appears in the mission [[She's a Keeper]]. ===Rebla=== *A brown colored Rebla is requested by Stevie. ===Huntley Sport=== *Huntley Sports with a yellow, black and green paint job, custom grille with removed badging and side-mounted exhaust pipes are driven by the [[Jamaican Posse]]; like other gang-specific variants, all these modified vehicles are still called "Huntley Sport" when entered. These can be found around [[Beechwood City]], [[Schottler]] and [[Willis]], and one is given as a gift in the last of [[Little Jacob]]'s drug delivery missions. *This variant can also be obtained through gang wars in [[The Lost and Damned]], as [[Gang Wars]] located in Dukes and Broker are often against members of the [[Jamaican Posse]], who, as mentioned above, drive this vehicle. *A black Huntley, painted with a thin red stripe down the sides, can rarely be found driving around Liberty City. It is one of a range of paint jobs available on default Huntley Sport's. *After doing a boating trip with Brucie, an iridescent olive and beige Huntley will be parked at the docks where you get out of the boat. *A custom Grey and Black Huntley is one of Stevie's car thefts, parked outside a police station at Bohan. It will NOT spawn again once delivered. ===Lokus=== *Three black Lokus appears in the mission [[Entourage]]. ===Dukes=== *In the mission [[Lure (GTA IV) |Lure]] for [[Francis McReary]], a red iridescent Dukes, that can not be seen on the streets, can be found outside the target's apartment in Denver Avenue, [[East Holland]], [[Algonquin]]. *A dark metallic orange Dukes is wanted by Stevie. This Dukes can be taken to a nearby safehouse and another should appear. When Stevie calls for it,it should appear on Vauxite Street, across from [[Modo]], [[East Holland]], Algonquin ===Police Stockade=== This is a special variant of Brute Stockade 8000. It only appears in two missions. Its first appearence is in the mission [[Three Leaf Clover]], hovewer, it is not recommended to try and take it in this as it requires a lot patience and and a truck. The doors is also locked. The best to acquired it is during the mission [[Tunnel of Death]] as the player is required to steal it. After dealing with the [[NOOSE]] and police forces, take it and drive it to your nearest safehouse. After that you have parked it in the parking space, drive very far away until the mission has failed, the truck will be standing fine in the parking space. Another way to obtain the Police Stockade in the mission Tunnel of Death is by pushing it back to your nearest safehouse, a good vehicle for pushing it is the Phantom located in Normandy just before you go to the secluded area. After that, push BOTH cars until you reach the safehouse, make sure their ALWAYS close to each other or the Stockade will vanish. Avoid police attention at all cost because it will be pretty hard to ditch them because the Stockade will vanish if you go far away. When you reach the safehouse, just continue with the mission and and go back to your safehouse, it should be there with you not having a mission failure. ===Presidente=== A modified Presidente is used by the Korean mob. It has a spoiler, a different grille and a dark blue color. They appear in Alderney and near the safehouse. ==Bikes== ===Hellfury=== * In the mission [[Ruff Rider]], there is a rich red Hellfury that can be obtained after you kill the enemy, [[Jayvon Simson]]. Normal Hellfurys have a metallic red, but this one is a glossy red with no metallic added to it. After you kill Jayvon, the mission is completed, so you can take and park it at your safehouse. ===Faggio=== *A green and black Faggio is wanted by Stevie. This Faggio can be taken to a nearby safehouse and another should appear. When Stevie calls for it, it should appear across the street from [[Dragon Heart Plaza]], Diamond Street, [http://gta.wikia.com/Chinatown,_Algonquin Chinatown], Algonquin. ===Freeway=== *A brown Freeway is wanted by Stevie. This Freeway can be taken to a safehouse and another Freeway should appear. When Stevie calls for it, it should appear in front of the [[Willis Wash and Lube]], Saratoga Ave in Willis, Dukes. ===NRG 900=== *A light and dark grey NRG 900 can be stolen for Stevie. This NRG 900 can be taken to a safehouse and stored and another one will appear. When Stevie calls for it, it will appear on Bismarck Ave, [[Lancaster]], Algonquin ==Aircraft== ===Maverick=== There are three unique variants of the [[Maverick]]: * One in the missions [[Dust Off]] and [[Paper Trail]]. In Dust Off, this requires a mission failure to obtain the chopper. It's recommended to save it in Paper Trail, because you can fly it to your safehouse after you beat the mission. * Another one appears in [[Babysitting]]. It is solid black with no white stripes on the top of the body. You need to capsize Derrick's boat, and after it starts flying away, ram it into a building, and then push it to your safehouse after it hits the ground. Note: There can't be anyone in the chopper after it crashes. Otherwise, it won't save. *Another one appears in [[A Revenger's Tragedy]] ("Deal" ending), where Dimitri flies it. After you crash on [[Happiness Island]], steal the chopper and fly it to your safehouse. ===Police Maverick=== The [[Police Maverick]] is a police variant of the civilian Maverick. Also, the Police Maverick dosen't have a spawn point in GTA IV. To acquire one, good sniping skills will be needed. ===Annilhator=== *[[Little Jacob]] pilots an Annihlator with the side doors closed in the last mission (either ending), to obtain it, fly it to your saehouse and kill Roman or Jacob. ==See Also== [[Unique Vehicles in The Ballad of Gay Tony]] [[Category:GTANav]] [[Category:Vehicles]] [[Category:Vehicles in GTA IV]]

It is a given in modern life that nations seek to guard their borders against illegal immigrants, but throughout American-Canadian history the two nations have maintained relatively open borders to facilitate travel. A senior official in the Obama administration made clear that Canada would not be treated any different than what is happening on the Mexican border. OK, so there is extensive drug violence and kidnappings and murders on the US-Mexican border, but who is to tell that drug lords will not head north to Canada and continue the same sort of violence? Of course, common sense would dictate that Canada is NOT a threat to American interests. Janet Napolitano, Secretary of Homeland Security, made clear "we shouldn't go light on one (border) and heavy on the other." Why not?
She also let Canadians know that regardless of past history, Canada and the United States have a border and she intends to safeguard that border against —?? There is no threat from Canada and it makes sense to lower restrictions on our neighbors to the north even while we maintain tighter ones on our neighbors to the south.

For the past couple of months, we have been working on identifying best practices for application development and delivery teams executing on multichannel strategy. The related report will get published soon. We found that application development and delivery teams need to be successful in the magic triangle of delivering a multichannel solution: 1) tactically; 2) in a strategic way; and 3) fast.

Just recently, I had an interesting customer experience — or, to be more precise, my daughter had it, as it involved her laptop computer from one of the top international Internet PC vendors. It was only a little defect — more an annoyance than a real fault. Since we bought "next business day service," it should have gotten fixed right away. It played out differently in real life.

South African cuisine has changed from indigenous dependence on wild game, cattle and gathering of foods from the wild, to farming, and cooking styles brought by colonists from Netherlands, Germany France and Britain, as well as immigrants from India. Traditional "Cape Dutch" cookery mixes European cooking with spices like nutmeg, allspice and hot peppers, brought to South Africa from India and Southeast Asia.
2 large ripe tomatoes, cut into thin slices
1/2 teaspoon salt
Pinch sugar
1 fresh hot green chile pepper, minced
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
Arrange tomato slices in a serving dish. Sprinkle with salt, sugar, and minced chile pepper. Drizzle on the vinegar. Let salad sit for about 15 minutes before serving.

Create bubbling casseroles with square and rectangular bakers, or make perfectly crispy, crunchy-edged brownies with our professional-level bakeware collection. Designed with you, the user, in mind, each item is crafted from high-quality materials for ideal durability, heat transference and as little sticking as possible. Shop bakeware with Williams-Sonoma today and access high-quality products that truly withstand the tests of time.
Cook chicken and other meats perfectly in our beautiful and sturdy stoneware roasting pans. Dishes come with a stoneware lid that helps to seal in moisture while baking, producing soft, tender meats that retain their juices. Available in square, rectangular and round shapes in a variety of sizes, these multi-talented baking pans are versatile enough to find a home in anyone's bakeware collection. Especially useful for slow-roasting turkey, whole chickens and other poultry, stone roasters and baking dishes make turkey dinners easy; once the bird is done, just pull it out of the oven and remove the meat. Then, you're free to use the drippings to make your favorite gravy. Roasting beef and pork? Our ovenware supports this need, too; just leave the lid on for the first 75 to 80 percent of the baking time. Remove it near the end and pop your meat back into the oven to gently brown the top. Stone and ceramic ovenware makes producing juicy, well-browned meats that remain moist and full of flavor simple.
Baking lasagna, pasta dishes or au gratin? We have options for that, too. Stainless-steel and copper pans provide expert-level heat transference, radiating heat up and through your pasta and cheese dishes for even cooking. These durable baking tools come with features like molded steel handles that make it safer and easier to lift them in and out of the oven when wearing bulky oven mitts. Smooth, reflective surfaces make after dinner dishwashing a breeze, letting you wash away caked-on food without intense scrubbing. Corrosion-resistant, rust-resistant stainless-steel and copper cookware dishes offer increased longevity, reliability and heightened durability, too. Choose pans with a matching metal lid for baking food with the cover on. Pans with a matching plastic lid can't be placed into the oven with the lid on, but they make tucking leftovers away in the refrigerator quick and easy once dinner is done.
Craving sweet treats and light, fluffy tarts? Let us help you bake the perfect pastry with glass and stoneware pastry dishes. Fluted edges help you seal your filling in, so there's no spills, overflows or messes after baking. Well-suited to everything from homemade apple pie to quiche, these dishes come in a variety of shapes and sizes, letting you customize your delectable desserts and enjoyable entrées to your heart's content. Bake deep-dish pies in our oversized and extra-deep glass bakeware dishes, or create little apple-shaped pastries in our apple-shaped tart pans. Both styles have an interior reservoir and fluted edges to keep the best part of your delicious homemade desserts inside the pan.
Any kitchen, whether home or commercial, can benefit from better organization. Being able to find the dish you need quickly is important; that's why we offer stackable, easy-to-organize bakeware options that take up less space in your cupboards. Our white oven-to-table bakers come in a variety of graduated sizes, each nestling into the next, so you have the options you need for creative baking at arm's reach and with less overall room required. Many of these come with snap-on plastic lids, meaning you can bake, take and store your creations all in the same dish. That means there's less to clean up after dinner and less plastic waste. Need an all-in-one solution? We have that, too; our packaged bakeware sets let you set up a new kitchen or start building a bakeware collection from scratch with just a single purchase.

Very good fight

CWFC WW division is ridiculously good.
I would ban the triangle choke, the refuge of cowards everywhere.
if Cage Warriors just did a 16 man, one night welterweight tournament for every card they did, I would be okay with that.

Here you can see photographs of Chicago gangsters, politicians, and early famous Chicagoans; the first taxicab in the city; the early pneumatic tube system installed in the the Chicago Post Office; the devastating fire at the Iroquois Theater in 1904 that took the lives of hundreds of Chicagoans; the reference room of the Chicago Public Library in 1911; Michigan Avenue before it was widened; stately North Shore residences; the famous Keeley Institute for the treatment of alcoholism; the draft plans to straighten the Chicago River; and much, much more! Within the description of each image you will find a link back to the original digitized text.

UNC-Georgia Tech Postgame Quotes
North Carolina Head Coach Roy Williams
Opening Statement
"We feel good. We played in spurts, that's about the best part of it. We got off to a good start offensively moving and running the ball. Then we got stagnant and didn't, but Georgia Tech - I feel for them. They've really gotten better and it's just they've had a tough, tough opening part of the conference play. They've had by far the most difficult schedule in the league. They are going to be a load for anybody as the second part of the season starts."
On if the team is improving
"I think we are close, I really do. I think we are close to being a good basketball team. We've got to finish plays more, and as I said, we've got to make more shots. No question about that. We had some breakdowns defensively. They shoot 33 percent [in the first half] and 39 percent [in the second half] and we shoot 42 percent [in the first half] and 43 percent [in the second half]. We're doings some good things ... The best news is - now I hope it's in my lifetime - we can get a lot better. Like I said, I hope it's in my lifetime but I think every area of the game we can improve on."
On P.J. Hairston's consistency
"Well it would be consistency if we got it [ever game], but we don't have it yet. As you said, [he shot] 1-8 and 5-11 [in previous games]. I'll take 3-6 from the three point line every time, but we've got to get the consistency out of him if he's going to be the big-time player that we need him to be."
On the team's play in transition
"It's easier to score when the defense is not set, and that generally starts with good play on the defensive end - either getting a turnover or a missed shot and running. We haven't gotten established yet being able to run after a make, which our teams in the past have always done really well. But we haven't done that really well."
Georgia Tech Head Coach Brian Gregory
Opening Statement:
"I think North Carolina's starting to kind of come into its own. They've got some guys playing at a really high level. Obviously [Reggie] Bullock is playing really well, and I think [James Michael] McAdoo is starting to gain some consistency. So, for 40 minutes I was proud of the way our guys fought and competed, but their defense sped us up and we lacked composure in some key times there. At the end of the first half, we did a good job hanging tough and hanging in there. We had a couple of opportunities to cut it to four or five, but we weren't able to do that. They're a good team, a very talented team, and they can get it going offensively. Coach Williams always says when they improve defensively, that's when they become the North Carolina that everybody expects. They're a much different team than the one that opened up 0-2 in this league with their third straight win, but I think that people probably saw tonight that one of the teams they lost to was a little better than people thought when they played them."
On ACC play:
"In this league, you need to be able to be aggressive but composed, when you play some of these teams that really deny and try to speed you up. They sped us up. It's not the hardest thing to do against an inexperienced or younger team like we have. It's one of the biggest challenges, especially on the road. But when you look at your two starting big guys had seven of the 19 turnovers. Sometimes your big guys get even more sped up because you have to use them to relieve some pressure. It's something we need to keep getting better at."
On trying to make a game-changing play:
"We could never get that break. Be it one or the other, a big defensive rebound when we needed it or a made basket. The only thing, again this is no discredit to North Carolina because I think their coach has done an underrated job with this team, and before it's all said and done they'll be right in the mix, but we did miss some pointblank shots that we have to make."
UNC Player Quotes
On the progress of the team
"I'm seeing our team gelling together a lot better, knowing their roles and what they are capable of doing. So they're just going out there, playing the game that Coach (Williams) recruited them to play."
On UNC's ball movement
"Our ball movement was a lot better in transition. In the half court set, we were a little stagnant, moving slow...not setting screens effectively to get other teammates open. We were moving the ball a lot better in transition than in the half court set."
On building team consistency
"We've been focusing on our defense, our transition buckets and players getting open for shots. Once we handle our business on defense and set good screens on the offensive end our shots will come."
On the toughness of ACC opponents
"Last year I kind of got a feel for that, but being a starter and knowing that every game you play a team could beat you by who knows how much if you don't show up to play. We're all learning as a team, especially the freshman. I know we all love it. We want to play the other team when they're at their best. The ACC is a great conference."
On offensive rebounding
"Coming into the game, dominating and winning the war on rebounds was definitely something that we were focusing on. First half, they definitely beat us out on that, but we came in at halftime and we focused on it and were able to play a little better on the boards in the second half."
On Rashad McCants wearing McAdoo's jersey on the sidelines
"I saw that, and I was like 'Whoa, that's kind of weird to see him wearing that.' He's one of the greatest that has ever played here at Carolina. It's always nice to have guys like him come back during the season. We're so used to seeing those guys during the summer, playing against them. It's always good to see one of them, talk to them, draw from their experiences when we're in the middle of the season."
On getting to the rim more
"I'm not bragging at all, but I feel like my guy has a hard time keeping me in front of him. I just try to be aggressive and go right by him. I was trying to do that tonight...get easy baskets, get to the rim and try to create for others."
On the team working better together in the open court
"When we're in the open court and transition, it's an automatic bucket, and it should be. Our guys do a great job of pushing the ball. Marcus (Paige) does a great job of pushing the ball, looking up and Reggie running the wings. I think we do a great job in transition."

BUFFALO – The Marist women's lacrosse team suffered a 16-13 loss in its regular-season finale at Canisius on Saturday at the Demske Sports Complex. The Red Foxes will be the number three seed in next week's Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference Championships, and will open tournament play against second-seeded Fairfield on Friday at 7 p.m. at Tenney Stadium.
Junior Jamie Romano (Kings Park, N.Y.) led Marist with six goals. Junior Tierney Larson (Fairfield, Conn.) added a goal and four assists. Freshman Allison Gionta (Eastport, N.Y.) and sophomore Kirsten Viscount (Smithtown, N.Y.) each had two goals and an assist.
With her four helpers, Larson set the MAAC record for most assists in a single-season; the previous record was 47 set by Canisius' Carly Quinn.
Marist scored the first three goals of the contest, but the Golden Griffins scored five unanswered goals in the final 6:32 of the first half to take an 11-5 halftime lead. Canisius led by seven on two different occasions in the second half, but the Red Foxes fought back with four goals over the final 3:09.
Romano also led the Red Foxes with eight shots on goal and five draw controls. Senior Laura Lucchesi (Syracuse, N.Y.) had a team-high four ground balls. Senior Ashley Casiano (South Windsor, Conn.) had five saves.
Morgan Leonard led Canisius with five goals and eight shots, and added four ground balls. The Golden Griffins outshot the Red Foxes 20-9 in the first half and 26-25 in the game.
Marist, which had won four straight entering Saturday, finished the regular season at 8-9 overall and 4-2 in MAAC play. Canisius, which will be the top seed in next weekend's tournament, is now 12-4 overall and 6-0 in the MAAC.

The Canadian government is prepared to deport US soldiers who fled to their country because they believe the war in Iraq is a criminal action. The War Resisters Support Campaign says former soldier, Cliff Cornell, has been told he must leave Canada by December 24 or face removal by force. The organization is asked Immigration Minister Jason Kenney to halt all deportation of war resisters. They want federal authorities to implement a motion passed by the Canadian parliament in June to prevent deportation of "conscientious objectors" to wars not sanctioned by the United Nations and they should be allowed to apply for permanent resident status. Kenney's office insists US military deserters are not genuine refugees.
During the war in Vietnam, the people of Canada welcomed American deserters who fled the horror of that war, but today, the Canadian government is refusing to recognize the horror of Iraq and Afghanistan. Any soldiers who deserts knows he/she faces serious jail time so to make that decision entails careful consideration of what is right or wrong in life. It is a conscious decision by individuals who are conscientious objectors.

I'm doing a home study tefl course at the moment and am stuck on a couple of questions on my first assignment and need a few ideas if possible.
3) In a lesson, how would you illustrate and clarify the difference between these grammar points? Give detailed examples of the questions/graphics/timelines etc. you would use.
b) Going to vs. will for future plans.
c) Present simple vs. Present continuous.
So basically, I just need a few ideas of how I could go about teaching this in a simple way.
Question a) was for the Present perfect vs Past simple where I thought the simpliest way to show it would be to draw a timeline of where I'd lived for the past 10 years up until where I live now, so the students could see clearly the timescale and what was finished and unfinished e.g. I lived in Jersey for 6 years. I live in Bristol now.
I would be grateful if someone could help me with a few ideas for the other questions - even just a starting point.

fact is almost all child molesters are "straight" not gay!
Organizations that resist changes in societal norms fade into obscurity,
I don't think any homosexual tries to promote their lifestyle through scouting or any other medium.
I don't think any homosexual tries to promote their lifestyle through scouting or any other medium.
like all other liberal agendas, the end justifies the means. if you have to destroy something to get your way, that's just fine....no matter that the thing you are threatening to destroying is a good thing for thousands of kids.
2. ....until beekeepers wanted to see a beekeeping merit badge reinstated...then, beekeepers were encouraged to let the BSA know that "outside pressures" were hoping for a beekeeping merit badge, and the BSA should reinstate the badge.
3. Now, without any specific "outside pressure" (no specific lawsuit or impending fine that I'm aware of), the BSA decides that they should do things differently and allow homosexuals. ...seems like the same kind of internal decision that we were previously told the BSA had the right to make on their own, without "outside pressures".

The Russian band Sattuma will be in Henniker the night of Tuesday, July 23, to perform traditional Eastern European music as part of the town's summer concert series. (COURTESY)

Jay Bradner:
Open-source cancer research
How does cancer know it's cancer? At Jay Bradner's lab, they found a molecule that might hold the answer, JQ1. But instead of patenting it and reaping the profits (as many other labs have done) — they published their findings and mailed samples to 40 other labs to work on. An inspiring look at the open-source future of medical research.
This talk was presented to a local audience at TEDxBoston 2011, an independent event. TED editors featured it among our selections on the home page.
