In an exclusive chat with NAIJ.com Sports, Eduok who was in action on Saturday, March 18, when Kasimpasa defeated Osmanlispor FK 3 -2 in the Super Lig disclosed that he grew up from a poor background and surely knows what Nigerians are facing back home.
"I just want to put smile on someone's face out there. I am from a very poor background all the way from Itu Local government in Akwa Ibom state.
"The place is a very small community, and that was where I grew up. I have faced a lot of challenges and I hope do more," he raved
Recall that the former Akwa United star was the first player to register a goal at the newly built Godswill Akpabio International Stadium, when Nigeria faced a selected Ghanaian side in a friendly, when it was commissioned in November, 2014.
The player however vowed to continue with such gesture.

Last night was open house at my kid's school. Open house is the evening where parents go to school and learn the exciting news that their kid's classroom has awesome beanbag chairs that constitute the "Reading is Fun!" pavilion next to the coat rack. I jest of course; open house is important. It's where you learn your child's schedule, see their classroom and meet the teachers that will be the stewards of their education for the next ten months. It's always good to have a nice rapport with your children's teachers, but this goes double–no triple, for me and my wife. As I mentioned in Episode 57 of The Real Life Survival Guide, my wife and I are the proud parents of two boys; Shane, who is on the autism spectrum and Patrick, who is just kind of a pain in the neck. Both boys present challenges to their teachers. Having been a bartender and a teacher, I have learned that a little gratuity can go a long way. Knowing this, my wife and I are not above offering bribes; flowers, bottles of wine, poetry, baskets of puppies…stock options, whatever. As long as it will get their teachers to see past the challenges that my son's present and allow them to see the good, smart, and funny boys that lie beneath the surface so that the extra work of educating my boys doesn't turn into some wearisome, awful, burden.
Now as challenging as it can be for my wife and I to raise a child on the spectrum, we always try to keep in mind the extra time and effort it takes for teachers and staff to successfully integrate a special needs child into the classroom. Knowing all the hard work Shane's teachers do in order for him to learn, my wife and I have followed the time tested maxim, that you get more flies with honey than you do with vinegar". We try our best to work cooperatively with the school administration, the teachers and the special education team. We have found that being a friendly, helpful and engaged advocate for our son has helped him gain a legion of advocates within the school. It also hasn't hurt that Shane is a sweet, funny kid. It turns out that his own personality is his best advocate. We have heard from his psychologist and his special education teachers how rare it is for a child on the autism spectrum to be as funny as Shane is.
This humor can be a double edged sword. As much praise as Shane has received from teachers and classmates for being funny, I have also received phone calls from the Principal and notes home from his teachers explaining how Shane said something inappropriate in the classroom. (I also get calls from the nurse every now and then saying he ate part of his shoe or a few erasers but that's not important right now.) Whenever we receive a call or note about him saying bad words, my wife always turns to me with a scowl and says, "It's all your fault." And she's right. I confess. I have let him watch a few things that some people might find objectionable or questionable and a few of these movies and shows might have taught him a few exotic words or phrases. But, I have a defense.
When Shane was three years old, before he was diagnosed with PDD-NOS (Pervasive Development Disorder Not Otherwise Specified) or as I call it, "Lot's O' words disorder", he would spend a lot of time in his head, either silently living in his own thoughts or nervously pacing around, reciting the lines from Sesame Street or Thomas the Tank Engine over and over, as if on a loop. It was upsetting to say the least. One of the biggest frustrations was his inconsistency. At some moments I would swear there was nothing wrong with him and then just as quickly as he had entered my world and started to interact, he would withdraw and return to the pacing and echolalia. I have often described these early years as the spaceship years. In the spaceship, there was family and friends and life and love and outside the spaceship there was nothing but dark, solitary, emptiness. The struggle was to keep him from floating out the hatch and out into deep space. Sometimes, it felt like the lure of the dark void was too strong and that he would choose to float away, and we would lose him forever, but my wife and I pulled and yanked and somehow kept that little kid on our spaceship. The main thing I found during this time that kept him tethered to the real world– was humor. Whether he was in the middle of a meltdown or just playing with his toys I noticed that humor seemed to be the best tool to either get him to calm down or to bring him outside his own head. This wasn't like Rain Man flatly reciting; "Who's On First" as if it were a math problem, Shane really seemed to understand what made Abbott and Costello funny. His overall comprehension of language was weak but he somehow understood comedy.
At the same time, I tried to get Shane interested in sports but he showed little interest. It seemed we weren't ever going to bond over the Yankees or Jets or my hatred for Boston but we could bond over silliness. This led me to introduce him to the world of Bugs Bunny, The Little Rascals, The Three Stooges, Monty Python, The Simpsons, Jackass, The Ricky Gervais Show, South Park, Family Guy, Young Frankenstein, Caddy Shack, and a host of other things. Was some of it a tad inappropriate? Yes. Did it help him? I say yes. As time passed Shane's language and social skills improved, he developed a great sense of humor and with the help of his teachers and psychologists he really began to come out of his shell.
Now he is eleven. And being a kid on the spectrum is not easy. There are always a few kids looking to pick on a child that is different but his sense of humor has won him allies. His classmates genuinely like him are very protective of him. But a few problems persist. He still has echolalia which means he can and does recite huge sections of dialogue from shows and movies. Want to hear King Arthur fight the black knight in Monty Python and Holy Grail? He'll recite the whole thing with the proper accents. Want to hear Marge Simpson, Mr. Burns or Ralph Wiggum? He's got their voices down. Ever Watch HBO's The Ricky Gervais Show? Well Shane has and that's where we get into a little bit of trouble. Because Shane remembers all the dialogue from shows, he sometimes goes into school and repeats them, line after cheeky line. And that's my fault. I let him watch stuff that he shouldn't and he doesn't always understand why some of the words shouldn't be repeated. Maybe I'm a bad Father, but if a call from the principal or a note sent home from a teacher is the price I have to pay to have my son sitting next to me inside the spaceship, fully engaged, laughing his awesome laugh, then I'd gladly pay it over and over and over again. But to keep everyone happy I might just throw in some Roses for the teacher and a box of Cigars for the Principal. It couldn't hurt.

Jaiku is the new startup I co-founded with Petteri Koponen, Mika Raento and Teemu Kurppa. It's a social phonebook that displays the real-time availability and location of your contacts. We call this rich presence.
With the Jaiku mobile application, you can share your location (neighborhood, city, country) based on cell tower positioning; your availability (based on whether your phone's ringer is on or off); an IM-style presence line; current and upcoming calendar events; people and devices nearby (based on Bluetooth scanning); and how long your phone has been idle.
You can share this information with your contacts' mobile phones. You can also create a badge for your blog, MySpace profile or any other Web page that shows your real-time presence on the Web.
Here's my real-time presence badge:
The beta version of the mobile application is for Nokia S60 Second Edition phones only (see the list of compatible models). We're planning to make versions for other models in the future, and enable anybody to update their rich presence on the Web or from any mobile by sending in simple text messages.
Jaiku doesn't include rich presence from Web feeds yet – but I think it will be cool to show the latest blog post / photo / bookmark, or the music track you last listened to.
Give it a spin and post your comments on the Jaikido blog!

FFmpeg Drive
handy video/frame manipulation
v. 1.0 Jun 2013
FFmpeg Drive is a GUI – graphical user interface (frontend, wrapper) for the popular command-line video manipulation program ffmpeg, which offers access to certain functions of ffmpeg. Namely these are the ability to bind individual frames (images) into a single movie file, the ability to convert movie files from one type (format) into another, and the play movie function using mplayer *. This is a work in progress, open to a wide set of possibilities.
For convenience, part of the original 32-bit ffmpeg package for Windows and Linux is included in the FFmpeg Drive package. If you want to execute any other version of ffmpeg, make sure that the ffmpeg command is executable from the location where you are running FFmpeg Drive.
Download FFmpeg Drive from https://sourceforge.net/projects/ffmpegdrive/
Forum is available at https://sourceforge.net/p/ffmpegdrive/discussion/
Enormous (undocumented) documentation for the ffmpeg program that runs in console is here: http://ffmpeg.org/documentation.html. The whole reason why we have frontends (wrappers), is to avoid typing the complicated options in console. Many of these options can be added over time using the decorations in FFmpeg Drive.
FFmpeg Drive is currently being developed and tested in Windows and OpenSuSE Linux. It may easily find its way to other operating systems that have ffmpeg available.
The ability to play a movie is kindly provided by MPlayer project for Windows and MPlayer2 project for Linux.
(video presentation of the beta version)
FFmpeg Drive is a free, open source program written in Java (www.java.com) and licensed under the GNU Public License GPL version 3.
Author: Predrag L. Bokšić (firstname.lastname@example.com)
FFmpeg Drive runs on Windows or Linux operating system that has Java environment installed. (It is not tested on other systems.) Install Java from www.java.com or from your Linux distribution provider. Use the FFmpeg Drive installer for Windows. Double click the newly created Windows desktop icon, FFMpeg Drive. Alternatively, download and unpack the .zip package in any folder where you have access, such as My Documents in Windows or your home folder in Linux. Open the unpacked folder and execute FFMpeg Drive 64.exe or FFMpeg Drive.exe depending from the 64/32-bit version of Java that you have installed on your computer. The version of Java is not important. You can also execute in console java –jar ffmpeg-drive.jar. This command in Linux is usually formatted as java –jar ./ffmpeg-drive.jar.
This application started as a small helper application for use with Perceptron. Use this application to bind sequence of frames produced in Perceptron into a movie. Visit: http://perceptron.sourceforge.net/

A screening license is required for all screenings organized outside of one's home - this is true whether or not you charge for tickets, or are a for-profit, non-profit organization or school. However, license fees vary by location(s), type of organization and how many times you plan the screen the film.
You may select the license that is right for you from the following links:
When you buy, rent, or borrow any type of audiovisual work made by someone else (like the team behind Girl Rising!), you obtain only the copy of the content itself, and not the copyright to the movie. You certainly are free to watch the movie yourself or with your personal network in a private setting, but, beyond that, your rights are limited by law. When you purchase a screening license you are buying the rights to publicly screen the film in a designated location.
As an independent screening host, you are eligible for a public performance license which is considerably cheaper than what a commercial cinema must pay to show a film. Even if the cost seems unreasonable, please keep in mind that this is a standard practice for documentary films.

Dr. Scholl's sandals are good for your feet
Roll over, Hush Puppies, and tell Earth shoes the news. The latest retro footwear find is that other '70s staple: Dr. Scholl's beech-wood sandals. In the last three months no fewer than six fashion magazines have prescribed these good-for-your-calves clogs. And stars including Cindy Crawford, Ricki Lake, and Cybill Shepherd are already shuffling in step.
Created by a Chicago podiatrist and first widely marketed in America in 1968, the sandals disappeared in the mid-'80s, when the company decided to focus on foot-care products. But when sales of Hush Puppies took off thanks to a range of new colors, Dr. Scholl's shoes were back in stride. According to marketing rep Lisa Hanly, this year's supply has nearly been exhausted, and now, she says, "we're making 'em as fast as we can." And snazzing 'em up as well: Just as Hush Puppies went beyond hangdog brown, the good Dr.'s next round will include all-new flashy hues like lemon, lime, and tangerine. But the biggest sign Dr. Scholl's have come up in the world? They're no longer sold on a drugstore shelf next to Odor Eaters. Instead, they're beating a path to trendy boutiques (where they sell for $25 to $32) and stores like Urban Outfitters. Says Camella Ehlke, whose 555-Soul shops in New York City and L.A. carry them, "They're schleppy, comfortable, and, with a thrift-store look, they're an obvious accessory." Quite a fashion foothold.

What If Your Home Front Spilled SportsPosted by VeRonda Wicks May 12th, 2010
Someone contacted me (Yes, I got permission to spill the beans.) and asked for practical advice on how to cope in a situation that had them frustrated and, seemingly, beyond the point of mending. Surprisingly enough, this happens to all the time, but it's the subject matter that varies. So, for this one, I'm calling on you guys for help…
What if your home was literally filled with sports and you couldn't get away from it? That, in a tight nutshell is what I'm bringing to you. This guy (yes, guy) is in a relationship where there is now no more room for him in it because sports has literally spilled out into every part of his household. When his love interest comes through the door, there is no more "What are we going to do today?" or "I thought this would be nice to do together."… Nope. It's television, ESPN, chat rooms, telephone conversations, ordering paraphernalia, blogging, you name it… and then sleep. He says he doesn't know what happened and honestly, he's at the point of not caring any more. I sat there listening to the unfortunate details of the state of which this guy is finding himself, while also feeling honored (and burdened) that he thought to contact me as a last-ditch effort in getting his home and love of his life back… He actually said, "I wish it were another person rather than this… At least I could understand it."
I told him I'd bring this situation to you guys to see what you all had to say and that it would also give me time to digest what he'd entrusted me with. You know, as I've said in several earlier posts, Wait Tila Commercial is about bridging that gap and making sports something that makes for a relationship stronger and I'm up for the challenge with this guy because everyone deserves to be happy. Life is too short for anything else… More details to come.

A great combination from the guitarist of neck-thru design, ebony fretboard and select Seymour Duncan pickups.
Dan Donegan, guitarist for multi-platinum band Disturbed, teamed up with Schecter Guitars to produce the Schecter Dan Donegan Ultra Signature Electric Guitar, also known as the Schecter Ultra DD.
With over 11 million albums sold worldwide, Dan's influence cannot be underestimated in an ever-changing musical landscape. The much anticipated Schecter Ultra DD signature model will not disappoint.
This Schecter has a visually striking neck-thru-body design that also helps produce long-sustaining notes with increased midrange. The body is mahogany and is joined to a resonant 5-ply maple and walnut neck via an ultra-access neck joint. The silky-smooth ebony fretboard has 22 extra jumbo frets along its full 25.5" scale length. Schecter locking tuners adorn the peghead. The truss rod cover features the guitarist's signature.
Dan Donegan selected specific Seymour Duncan pickups for the Ultra DD. A custom shop "El Diablo" in the bridge position provides pronounced upper mids and sweet, rounded highs, while the neck position SH-1N offers late-'50s, vintage correct, humbucker sound ranging from warm clean tones to full and bright distorted ones. The result is a guitar that can handle a variety of styles and playing techniques, just like the man himself.

text: The Utilization Rate of the Regional Health Information Exchange: How it Impacts on Health Care Delivery OutcomesMäenpää, Tiina MNSc; Asikainen, Paula PhD; Gissler, Mika PhD; Siponen, Kimmo BSc; Maass, Marianne PhD; Saranto, Kaija PhD; Suominen, Tarja PhDJournal of Public Health Management and Practice: May/June 2012 - Volume 18 - Issue 3 - p 215–223 doi: 10.1097/PHH.0b013e318226c9b9 Research Articles Abstract In Brief Author Information Interest in improving quality and effectiveness is the primary driver for health information exchange efforts across a health care system to improve the provision of public health care services. Objective: The aim here was to describe and identify the impact of a regional health information exchange (HIE) using quantitative statistics for 2004–2008 in one hospital district in Finland. Design: We conducted a comparative, longitudinal 5-year follow-up study to evaluate the utilization rates of HIE, and the impact on health care delivery outcomes. The selected outcomes were total laboratory tests, radiology examinations, appointments, emergency visits, and referrals. Results: The HIE utilization rates increased annually in all 10 federations of municipalities, and the viewing of reference information increased steadily in each professional group over the 5-year study period. In these federations, a significant connection was found to the number of laboratory tests and radiology examinations, with a statistically significant increase in the number of viewed references and use of HIE. The higher the numbers of emergency visits and appointments, the higher the numbers of emergency referrals to specialized care, viewed references, and HIE usage among the groups of different health care professionals. Conclusions: There is increasing interest in HIE usage through regional health information system among health professionals to improve health care delivery regionally and bring information on the patient directly to care delivery. It will be important to study which changes in working methods in the service system are explained by RHIS. Also, the experiences of the change that has taken place should be studied among the different stakeholders, administrative representatives, and patients. This study describes and identifies the impact of a regional health information exchange using quantitative statistics for 2004–2008 in one hospital district in Finland.

Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson must have left his interview at MSNBC feeling pretty silly. When asked what he thinks of the situation in Aleppo by Mike Barnicle, Johnson replied by saying "what's Aleppo?"
"You're kidding me," Barnicle reacted.
"No," Johnson replied.
Barnicle then explained that "Aleppo is in Syria" and is the "epicenter of the refugee crisis."
"OK, got it. Got it," Johnson added. "I do think that it's a mess. I think the only way we deal with Syria is to join hands with Russia to diplomatically bring that to an end."

April is an exciting time for black film nerds here in Brooklyn becauuuuuuuuuse…..
It's 'New Voices in Black Cinema' time!!!!
For the last seven years, I've been giving BAM all of my money and free time for a week of film made by new, fresh talent. It was here that I deepened my relationship with ancestral spirituality thanks to "United States of Hoodoo". It's also the same place I fell in love with John Boyega as he played a single father doing his very best in "Imperial Dreams".
What crushes me each year, however, is that I'm always the youngest person and mostly, the only black person in the theater during this festival. The activists of BlackTwitter have succeeded in lying to the world that there is a shortage of black film and filmmakers. However, the iSo14Below Film Club is here to let ya'll all know that the devil is lie and black Jesus is still on the throne! We've been going for four months now and about to go into overdrive this summer. If you're down to ride, join us for the first stop in high season for black film with a screening of "White Colour Black".
I have 15 tickets up for grabs at a discounted $10 a pop. RSVP here, so I know who to be chasing for ticket money. Keep your eyes glued to the event group as my partners at BAM and I are putting together a cute little pre-game!
Wanna stay looped into the dopest, cheapest, blackest stuff below 14th street and abroad? Sign up for iSo14below's weekly newletter here!

I've got a question. Which is correct?
We arrange a vast sale for 50% from the cost of the goods....
...sale with 50% from the cost of the goods
Does anybody hear me?
Hel'p! Hel'p!
Hopeless :?
Maybe my question is misunderstood....
We have organised a massive sale with prices as low as 50% of cost price.
As I understand the variant that I offered sounds like so called "NON-ENGLISH"? Is that right? How does that expression sound to the native speaker's ear?Originally Posted by tdol
Of the two, I'd use the second, but it doesn't sound very natural to me.
I hope someday I'll learn how to make expressions more natural-sounding to native speakers. But how... :DOriginally Posted by tdol
Anyway, thank you for your support :* :D
PS: Am I succeeding in "naturalizing" (looking at the sentences above)? :?
They're naturalised.

It all began with a girl's weekend…
Every Tuesday afternoon Helen (adorable wife) attends a pottery class at our church with a group of delightful ladies. I envision it as more of a social gathering with artistic overtones, but I have seen some really great works created by the students. The class is led by Janet, an extremely gifted potter and artist, who is generous with both her time and talent. Recently she extended her generosity a bit further when she invited class members to come to her beach home in the Destin, Florida area for a bit of down time in a warmer clime. I don't think anyone turned her down…certainly not Helen.
Easin' Along was also eager for a road trip, so we began looking for a place nearby in order to add few more days at the end of Helen's pottery party and I could have some time to thaw out as well. As we do in planning most of our retirement road trips, we scanned the Temporary Military Lodging catalogue published by Military Living Publications and located a waterfront cabin at Naval Support Activity (NSA) Panama City. Within a few minutes of placing a call to the reservation desk, a room was booked for four nights and plans were made.
Helen and crew left town on a Wednesday morning. A few hours later I departed for Charleston to help out my son with a construction project before driving on to Florida. There will be more on that portion of the trip in a later post. I arrived in Panama City on Sunday in time to watch the Super Bowl in our cute and cozy cabin and went on to Destin the next morning to rescue my lovely wife from all the laughter and chatter amongst her pottery pals.
Destin weather was glorious so we borrowed two of the bicycles from Janet's house and rode to the beach for a walk. The picture below above gives an idea of the morning it was and, considering that temperatures at home were in the mid – 30° range, we reveled in our good fortune. The beach was only sparsely populated with a few walkers–surprising since there was just a light breeze and mid 70° temps. Oh well, I'm glad I was there.
Walking spurred on an appetite so we rode over to the Great Southern Café for a light seafood lunch followed by another walk through the shops in the area where the beach communities of Watercolor and Seaside come together. All of the shops were inviting, but we spent way too much time in one of them. I learned enough about essential oils to last me a lifetime. It was time for more bike riding.
The homes in the area are all charming and the landscaping is well done throughout the neighborhood. The scenery made for pleasant riding which is exactly what I needed after eight hours of driving the previous day. Our bike trails led to an area around a small lake and when we arrived the view was perfect for picture taking. I was able to get this shot from a small bridge at the end of a cove.
By now it was time to load up all of Helen's gear and make the 45 minute drive to Panama City. I wanted Helen to see the cabin and the waterfront before dark and she had a lot of stuff to organize before we could leave. Nevertheless, we got it all in our car and made it to NSA Panama City in the late afternoon and in time for her to rearrange everything in our cabin–just like I knew she would. "What would you do without me?" she always asks.
I have to cut this post short for now. We just arrived home last night and I still have pictures to organize before delving into the details of our stay in Panama City. In the next post I will tell readers about our visit to St. Andrews State Park and our side trip to Appalachicola, Florida. I also want to share some information about NSA Panama City with our Military Living readers. We had some great oysters and wonderful seafood on this outstanding retirement road trip. Please come back and let us tell you about it.
We're rested, thawed out and happy so we'll continue…Easin' Along.

For Microsoft Surface, Modest Sales Are Good Enough12/8/2012
The software giant is finding that modest sales are the sweet spot for Surface hardware, but is it a winning business model? It could be. Surface doesn't have to be as big a hit as the iPad for Windows 8, and therefore Microsoft, to win big. More than Surface itself, Microsoft needs to get Windows 8 and the app model working, and for that the success of Lenovo, Dell, HP and other OEMs is also good for Microsoft.

A scarce map of Belfast Lough with a prospect of Carrickfergus Castle, illustrating the attack of the French privateer Captain Thurot in 1760, published in Raspe's 'Schau Platz des gegenwaertigen Kriegs' (Plates illustrating the Current Wars). Captain François Thurot (1727-70) was in times of peace a smuggler and in wartime a privateer. In both the War of the Austrian Succession (1740-8) and the Seven Years' War (1756-63) he terrorised British shipping: between May and September 1756 he is said to have captured or sunk sixty vessels. In 1759, with France planning to invade south west England, Thurot was sent out at the head of a fleet on a diversionary attack on Scotland and Ireland. Bad weather split the group but Thurot continued around the coast of Scotland to attack Carrickfergus Castle, more in search of food and winter clothing than for any strategic reason. He held the town for five days, threatened nearby Belfast (here named 'Bellast twice) and received ransoms and supplies. He left Carrickfergus Lough as soon as adverse winds allowed, but the Royal Navy now knew where he was, and frigates were sent after him. He was found near the Mull of Galloway and in the ensuing battle Thurot was killed, much to British relief.

It is likely that he engraved this homage to Louis XIV before 1685, because in that year the Revocation of the Edict of Nantes caused him to join the Hugenot exodus from France.

2013 NBA Lottery-Bound Teams with Biggest Offseason NeedsApril 18, 2013
2013 NBA Lottery-Bound Teams with Biggest Offseason Needs
Before the summer, teams put together a to-do list in terms of trying to improve the roster.
The lists are usually longer for teams in the lottery.
General managers can look to build through the draft, whether it's trading up to grab a target or waiting for one to slip into their lap.
Or they could hit the free-agent market, a more costly approach.
Charlotte Bobcats
Need: A Centerpiece
The problem with the Charlotte Bobcats' need is that the solution doesn't exist. At least not at the moment.
The Bobcats are unlikely to find a centerpiece in this year's NBA draft. Nerlens Noel is the only possibility, but he's not the offensive talent they'll need to put them on the map.
The free-agent market won't be an ideal field to pluck from either. I'm not sure overpaying for guys like Al Jefferson, Josh Smith or Andrew Bynum is the answer here.
If we're being honest, the Bobcats' needs won't be fulfilled during the 2013 offseason. They can add some pieces from the draft by taking the best player available, whether that's Noel, Ben McLemore or Anthony Bennett. They can also dip into the bottom portion of the free-agent pool and make a run at guys like J.J. Redick, Tony Allen or even O.J. Mayo.
But Charlotte's big offseason will come in 2014, when Andrew Wiggins, Jabari Parker, Julius Randle and Andrew Harrison will all likely be available at the top of the draft.
The Bobcats can add some supporting members this summer, but 2014 is the year where they really make their move.
Orlando Magic
Need: Floor General
Sorry, Jameer Nelson fans, but it's time the Magic appoint a new floor general to lead the troops.
Their first option is to attack this need through the draft. Trey Burke will likely be available when they pick, whether that's No. 1 overall or No. 3.
Burke defined the term "floor general" in his sophomore year after guiding Michigan to a national championship appearance.
If the team feels it wants to address other needs through the draft, the free-agent pool is also open. The Bobcats could make an offer to restricted free agents Jeff Teague, Brandon Jennings or Darren Collison.
And though he's not a point guard, Monta Ellis recently hinted he's likely to opt out of his contract (Journal Times). Ellis could act as a lead guard who can complement Orlando's plethora of talented wings.
Cleveland Cavaliers
Need: Frontcourt Offense
Like most teams in the lottery, the Cavaliers have more than one need. But the first one they should address is finding a forward or center who can create or generate some offense.
The Cavs can find a cheap source of production here by building from this draft. There are viable options for this team to choose from.
Georgetown's Otto Porter and UNLV's Anthony Bennett would both be fits. Porter is more of a glue guy who can finish on the perimeter and at the rim, while providing some playmaking, rebounding and defense on a routine basis.
Bennett has big-time offensive upside if he can exploit his unique physical gifts.
There are also plenty of centers for the Cavs to choose from if they feel hesitant about resigning Anderson Varejao when his contract expires next summer.
Alex Len and Cody Zeller would both be frontcourt upgrades and potential long-term replacements.
Phoenix Suns
Need: Star Power
The Suns have one of the most bland rosters in the league—no star power at any position or player to build the team around.
Nerlens Noel, Ben McLemore and Anthony Bennett are your three non-point guards with All-Star potential in this draft. Assuming the Suns gets a top-five pick, chances are that one will be available, although there's obviously no guarantee.
McLemore would give them a scoring guard, Bennett would offer a potential frontcourt mismatch and Noel could be the anchor of the future.
Free agents Josh Smith, Al Jefferson, potentially Monta Ellis (if he opts out), O.J. Mayo and Tyreke Evans could also give this roster some extra shine.
Phoenix needs loads of help. It should be active during the summer in bringing in new talent, both young and established.
Detroit Pistons
Need: Floor General/Go-To Scorer
The Pistons will have some money to spend this offseason with a number of their players' contracts expiring.
But who do they target?
Detroit seems fairly set at the 4 and 5 positions, and I'm not sure Josh Smith would be a solution on the wing.
If I'm the Pistons, I'm using this draft to fill a need here. With a top-six-or-so pick, they should be able to land a point guard, either Trey Burke or Michael Carter-Williams. Jose Calderon and Will Bynum are impending free agents, and Brandon Knight has excelled playing off the ball in the 2-spot.
Burke or Carter-Williams would both be solid options to build with at the point.
They could also find a wing in this draft, which they need considering Kyle Singler has been the starting small forward. The closest thing to a go-to scorer is likely Anthony Bennett, or maybe even Shabazz Muhammad.
But Bennett makes the most sense here as an inside-outside scorer. Otto Porter is the safer option who can fill the void left by Tayshaun Prince.
New Orleans Hornets
Need: Two-Way Center/Scoring Wing
The New Orleans Hornets have a team option on Robin Lopez this summer, and they could easily get a replacement from this year's draft.
I'm not saying the Hornets should let him walk, but they shouldn't spend a dime on another free-agent center.
Alex Len is a pretty ideal option here. At 7'1'', he can protect the rim yet has tremendous upside as an offensive player. His ceiling justifies a top-five pick, and the Hornets can fill a need and a want with it.
New Orleans could also use a scoring wing, although I'm not sure I'd overpay for Josh Smith. Patience is the name of the game when building a roster.
If the Hornets are unhappy with any of the center options in the draft, they should retain Lopez and look to select a guy like Anthony Bennett or Otto Porter. Both would slide right into the small forward position and likely get an opportunity to start right away.
Sacramento Kings
Need: Combo Forward/Floor General
The Kings should build from the draft this offseason and stay away from the high-priced free agents. None of them fit and all are overpriced.
In terms of the rotation, this team lacks a floor general and a combo forward.
I like Isaiah Thomas, but not as my floor general. I like him as my spark off the bench to provide some instant offense.
Trey Burke is a guy the Kings should be looking to trade up for if necessary. He can control the offense and balance scoring with facilitating while keeping the ball secure. Michael Carter-Williams is another option, though he's still a few years away from being a regular NBA contributor.
The front court, on the other hand, is too predictable up front.
They've got low-percentage scorers at the wing and one-dimensional power forwards down low.
Points up front are where you get your easy baskets, and the Kings don't get enough of them.
A combo forward is an offensive mismatch—someone with size and strength to play the 4 and the quickness and agility to play the 3. The Kings could target Anthony Bennett of UNLV, who averaged over 16 points and eight rebounds.
Bennett, or Otto Porter, another versatile offensive forward, could be targets for Sacramento to trade up for if necessary.
Washington Wizards
Need: Above-the-Rim Presence/Scoring Wing
As good as John Wall is, he needs support from a scorer who can create offense on his own.
And just like almost every other team, Anthony Bennett and Otto Porter seem like the top options on the draft board.
Both of them can generate offense with the ball in their hands and have athleticism to mesh with Wall.
They could also use a power forward or center who can play above the rim and get some easy buckets in the half court—because Emeka Okafor and Nene Hilario cannot.
Alex Len and Mason Plumlee are both draft options as athletic centers who can run the floor and get some cheap points.
Minnesota Timberwolves
Need: Backcourt Athleticism/Scoring Wing
The Minnesota Timberwolves could find backcourt athleticism and a scoring wing in the same shot if they focus on the draft.
Ben McLemore is a guy they should look to trade up for (Derrick Williams anyone?), or wait on others like Shabazz Muhammad and Victor Oladipo.
Between Ricky Rubio, Alexey Shved and J.J. Barea, they also don't have a defensive ball-stopper. Oladipo would be ideal in this lineup, as would Tony Allen, who will be a free agent this summer.

Children Centre
On 5 September 1914 a meeting was held in Bloemfontein, where the congregation, having identified an urgent need for a home for neglected children, were informed by management that a house had been rented at 32 Victoria Road for a period of six months at a cost of six pounds (twelve rand) per month.
Me Maritz was the designated house mother and a worker, Anna Vermeulen, was appointed at a salary of 10 shillings (one rand) per month. A certain Dr Krause provided medical assistance for a fee of half-a-crown (twenty five cents) per visit.
On 17 September 1973 the motto "Tot Alles in Staat" (Capable of Everything) was adopted, but six months later this was changed to "Reik na die Hoogste" (Reach for the Highest).
On 22 April 1975 it was decided that an emblem depicting a soaring eagle would be a fitting addition to the motto. Me Stofberg designed the emblem and this logo is still in use.
On 24 March 1977 Ds Van Rooyen, the Centre's director, presented management with the lyrics of a song that compliments the logo of the Children's Home. The song is based on the melodic theme of "Climb Every Mountain".
On 11 September 2004 the Children's Home celebrated its' 91st anniversary and its' name was changed to better express the growth and development that had taken place over the years. The new name is 'Ons Kinder- en Jeugsorgsentrum' ("Our Child and Youth Care Centre").
The centre consists of 10 houses and it also serves as a Therapeutic Centre. The Centre cares for 100 children with special needs who are looked after by a multi-professional team.
The centre has a rich history and this is reflected in the furniture, documents and photos that have been preserved.
The Therapeutic Centre is a special program of the Free State Youth Care Centres and is available to children of all age groups with special needs. The aim of the Therapeutic Centre is to bring about behavioural change in these children to enable them to be placed in a less restrictive and more empowering environment within a period of approximately two years.
Children still enjoy the same privileges as in any other youth care centre, within a structured therapeutic environment.
The purpose of the Centre is to provide a program of care, treatment and development from a Christian perspective for children who are in need of care or who are allegedly in need of care.
The centre:
- provides safe custody to the children in the centre.
- provides for the basic needs of these children.
- provides a service to children with special needs.
- assesses these children in a safe environment.
- prepares a plan of care and individual development for each child who is admitted and carries it through to fulfillment.
- promotes training and development of its' own personnel, as well as volunteers and others.
- serves as a resource facility for other centres and organisations by making available multi-professional skills.
- is managed on a cost effective and financially sound basis.

Contributions from the National Lottery Distribution Trust Fund (NLDTF) already made a huge difference at this child and youth care centre. During 2009 funds were received for Hino Super F bus. This financial contribution was made after 2 of the centre's combi's were stolen. The new bus provided great relief.
During 2010 this centre received money for a 60 seater bus. Our child and youth care centre couldn't receive support on a more convenient time!
This centre does not have any additional funds to do maintenance work. The NLDTF's contribution to repair the hall created gratitude by the personnel and the children enjoy the jungle gym and the multi functional activity court with climbing lanes!

DUBAI, Sept 11 (Reuters) - Dubai lender Mashreq expects to post a 40 percent increase in 2013 profits, significantly higher than its earlier forecast, mainly thanks to lower provisions, the bank's chief executive said on Wednesday.
Mashreq Chief Executive Abdulaziz al-Ghurair had said in February that he was optimistic about the bank's performance this year and expected profits to grow by 10-15 percent, with provisions continuing to recede.
The revised forecast is mainly due to "much lower" provisions that the lender expects to book this year, al-Ghurair told reporters in Dubai. (Reporting by Mirna Sleiman; Writing by Dinesh Nair; Editing by Olzhas Auyezov)

is superior to other plants and marine food sources in Omega 3 – the essential fatty acid. It is also high in protein, lipids, fibre, antioxidants and phytonutrients and low in sodium.
Superior Chia is gluten-free, trans-fat free, sugar-free, has no taste or smell and can be deliciously combined with most food or drink!
All our chia seeds are organically grown to deliver better nutrients. People with allergies to foods, chemicals, or preservatives often find their symptoms lessen or go away when they eat only organic foods. In addition, consuming organic foods is also good way of for protecting the environment.
The certificates state that the product is organic based on the different standards, including EU Equivalency, National Organic Program, OCIA International Standards and US-Canada Organic Equivalency Arrangement.
The certificates did not indicate the brand of the product. Rather, the supplier of the chia seeds submitted it, together with other products he is supplying, for the organic testing.
Superior Chia is our special formulated mixture of salvia Hispanica L. seed (commonly known as "chia seed") that is carefully selected across the different spices to yield maximum nutritional value per serving.
Further, our chia mixture is micro sliced for better absorption by the body. Unsliced raw chia seeds eaten whole are digestible but the body is not able to absorb most of the nutritional value hidden underneath its "husk". Micro-slicing exposes more of the surface area for nutritional absorption of the seed components and the chia oil.
1. Feel full for longer – when soaked in liquid, the chia seed releases a gel like substance which is calorie-free yet increases the size and weight of the seed. This means it keeps you feeling fuller for longer meaning that your body feels sustained and therefore you don't feel the need to eat and eat.
2. Stable blood sugar and energy levels – The seeds uniquely consists of soluble and insoluble fiber that slow down the body's conversion of starches into sugars meaning that it keeps your blood sugar stable which is meant to reduce the body's cellular inflammation response.
3. Complete protein – Chia is a complete source of protein, vitamins and minerals which provide sustained energy and contain twice the amount of protein of any other seed or grain.
4. High nutritional profile – Chia is loaded with magnesium, boron, calcium, antioxidants and essential fatty acids which are important to help protect us from ill-health.
5. Amazing source of Omega 3 – Most of the people diet is overloaded with Omega 6 which promotes inflammation and puts us more at risk of chronic disease. Chia has a high content of Omega 3 oil which is important in the prevention of heart and cholesterol health.
6. Internal sweep – The soluble fibre in the gelatinous coating of the chia keeps the colon hydrated, helps to eliminate accumulated matter and regulate bowel movements.
7. Easy to use – They don't have any flavour meaning that they will take on the flavour in which you combine them. They are extremely versatile and can be used in smoothies, cakes, crackers, biscuits and puddings.
Chia was first used by the Aztecs as early as 3500 B.C. and was harvested in the Valley of Mexico as one of the main components of their diet. They used chia as a raw material for medicines, nutritional compounds, as well as food, mixed with other foods, mixed in water and drunk as a beverage, or ground into flour.
Early 1990s, chai captured the interest of a group of American and south American scientists, nutritionists and agriculturarists who collaborated later in the commercial production of chia, in the hope of rediscovering the lost nutritional plants in the Azrtec tradition and civilizations.
Once an ancient superfood staple of the Incan, Mayan and Aztec cultures. Now chia is widely recognised and accepted as one of the most nourishing food on planet earth.

I am sure you all know that wild animals usually get quite scared when they hear guns being fired near them. Especially deer, they get scared to death when they hear guns being fired as that usually means hunters are onto them and they should immediately start running for their life….Well, not this deer.
This deer's got some major balls. Just watch the video guys, you will see what I am talking about. One of the funniest videos I've found today, which is not surprising as I've been watching that Conan's show. Pun intended ☺
So Yeah. . . Basically, this deer is just casually walking around while these guys are firing from their manly toys. What's even better, he did not even flinch when the fat dude fired from that huge rifle just a few feet away from him. What a badass deer. He just walked around, minding his own business. He even licked the goddamn rifle. If this deer was human, I am pretty sure he would be a Jean – Claude Van Damme type of badass.

New York:
Count Roger Federer among those against the idea of on-court coaching. The women's tour is experimenting with the rule change, using it at a US Open tuneup this month in Montreal, where coaches wore microphones so TV viewers could hear the consultations. Federer was asked about allowing coaches to help players during matches, a no-no in tournament tennis, after he opened his bid for a third consecutive US Open championship by beating Wang Yeu-tzuoo of Taiwan 6-4, 6-1, 6-0 on Wednesday. "What do you think I think? I think it's a joke," Federer said with a smile. "It's been like this forever, so why change it?" Of course, this comes from a man who managed to win three Grand Slam titles in 2004 while he was between coaches. And from someone who complained that rival Rafael Nadal was getting improper coaching help during their five-set final in Rome this year. "We don't need it," Federer said. "We will be the only sport who doesn't have it, and I think that's good about it. You don't need to be like the other sports." (AP)

Every night, we'd cuddle and talk about the future until we fell asleep. Every morning I'd give you brealfast in bed. I'd massage you whenever and however you wanted.
Halfway through the 2nd last day, I'd take you to dinner, just us. I'd tell you how much I loved you, how much I cared for you and all the reasons why I never wanted to be apart from you. Then I'd tell you all the reasons why I could make you happy forever and why I'd love you for the rest of my life. After the dinner we'd go back to our room where I'd have set up a camera to record the whole thing. Before we went in, I'd stop you, kiss you and say I love you one more time. I'd open the door for you. You'd go in and see 'Will you marry me' spelt out in candles or lights. You'd turn around and see me on one knee.
The last day again we'd do whatever you wanted while planning our future together and then go back to tell everyone.11|00|0

Success of secondary major driver in Patriots' 10-0 start
New England remained undefeated last night by beating the Bills 20-13 in Foxborough. Although the Patriots' offense spluttered for one of the few occasions this year, they were able to rely on their defense to come away with the victory. Darrelle Revis may have left town in the offseason, but the loss of his star quality has been negated by an improvement to the secondary unit as a whole.
Each member of the Patriots' secondary graded positively on Monday Night Football, and they combined for a +7.6 grade in coverage. New England's corners and safeties shut down Tyrod Taylor's deep game—and he's not the kind of quarterback to methodically drive down the field. Without the explosive plays, the Patriots were able to keep the Bills at arm length, and remain two games clear for the No. 1 seed in the AFC.
The strength of the Patriots' secondary lies, not in having elite players, but in having an elite unit. At safety, they have three players in the top 12, but none in the top four. Patrick Chung is the closest at fifth, but he's more of a reliable contributor than a playmaker. At corner, neither Ryan nor Butler can claim a spot in the top 10—but both are ranked in the top 15.
Performing on the perimeter
Malcolm Butler holds everything together at corner. His grade is slightly misleading, considering he's asked to track the opposing team's No. 1 receiver on most occasions. Butler has performed that role well, having recorded five green graded games (above +1.0) and just two red graded games (below -1.0) this season. He's allowed 44 receptions from 77 targets for 691 yards, five scores, one pick, and 10 pass deflections. Only Eric Decker and Antonio Brown have gotten the better of him this year.
Equally important to the emergence of Butler, however, has been the improvement of Logan Ryan. After finishing with a negative coverage grade in 2014 (-0.9), he's taken a big step forward in his third year as a pro. His coverage numbers are outstanding, as he's allowed just 34-of-57 targets to end up as completions, with one touchdown, four interceptions, and five passes defensed. Overall, he's allowing a QB rating of just 59.0, the seventh-best mark amongst corners so far this year. New England's corners might be the best under-the-radar guys around.
Security at safety
Patrick Chung is an interesting player. He's graded positively in five out of six years for New England, but looked completely lost in 2013 when he moved to the Eagles' roster in free agency. He recorded a -6.8 grade that year (-7.3 in coverage) before being promptly cut. Since his return to the Patriots, he has a +25.0 grade in about a year and a half. He's been particularly effective this season, and is in fine form, with grades of +1.6 or better in six out of his last seven games. Overall, he's allowed just 21-of-39 targets to be completed for 222 yards, one TD, and seven pass deflections. Chung is one of the better safeties that can move down and cover the slot, allowing just 0.71 yards per cover snap, 11th best in the league. His versatility has been a big help to New England, making him a key part of their secondary.
Beside him, it was touch-and-go as to whether Devin McCourty would still be around after his contract expired this offseason. He decided to return to the franchise that drafted him, and he's repaying their investment. Overall, he's allowed 20-of-30 targets to be complete for 193 yards, one touchdown, has one interception, and four PDs. Those aren't elite numbers, but they're very respectable. With solidity at both outside corner positions, along the versatility of Chung and McCourty's range from center field, the Patriots have no weaknesses on their back end.
Finally, it's worth mentioning Duron Harmon, who replaces Chung at safety when he moves down to cover the slot in the nickel. His numbers this year are simply ludicrous. He's allowed just one completion from four targets for 9 yards, but has three picks and a pass deflection. He's shown impressive playmaking ability in obvious passing situations, suggesting the Patriots' secondary could be even stronger moving forward. Harmon now has seven interceptions in his career, despite only allowing 13 completions. Although most of his interceptions have come on misplaced passes rather than jumped routes, that's still some stat line.
Overall there are few "names" starting for the Patriots' secondary, but the five players who have taken the most snaps there all have positive grades. Butler is able to do enough to prevent No. 1 receivers from taking over games, leaving Ryan with chances to make plays. Chung can mix it up in the box and cover slot receivers, while McCourty patrols center field. Then Harmon comes in on obvious passing situations and looks to take the ball away. The unit has everything you look for in a secondary, making it one of the best in the NFL

Juventus twice hit back from behind to beat Genoa 3-2 in Turin on Sunday and keep alive their faint hopes of qualifying for next season's Champions League.
Genoa took the lead through a Leonardo Bonucci own goal and a strike from Antonio Floro Flores but Juve hit back through a Marco Rossi own goal and then Alessandro Matri.
And Luca Toni proved the Juve hero seven minutes from time with only his second goal for the club since joining from Genoa in January.
The result leaves Juve five points behind Udinese in the crucial fourth spot, although a win for Lazio later in the day would take them fourth and six points ahead of the Old Lady of Turin.
Juve had a terrible start as Genoa took the lead on seven minutes with a huge stroke of luck.
Luca Antonelli tried to cross the ball into the box but it came off Bonucci and wrong-footed Marco Storari.
Juve took their time in getting some steam into their fight-back and it was Bonucci six minutes from the break at the right end who forced goalkeeper Eduardo into a spectacular save with a header from five yards, although he should have scored from there.
Simone Pepe, who seemed Juve's biggest threat all game, then beat a sleeping Giandomenico Mesto to the ball but his far post header went wide.
The hosts were back in the ascendancy straight after the restart as a fierce shot from Pepe from the left forced Eduardo to tip over his bar.
Juve were level on 50 minutes through another own goal as Pepe met Alberto Aquilani's cross with a firm header that was flying well off target until it hit Rossi and sneaked inside the post.
Juve were bubbling and Eduardo made a great save to deny Milos Krasic after the Serbian played a one-two with Matri.
Storari then had to get down smartly to parry a Floro Flores effort.
But Genoa went ahead again on 57 minutes as Antonelli charged down the left and crossed for the unmarked Floro Flores to fire home crisply, with Juve's defence clearly lacking the presence of Giorgio Chiellini.
But the lead did not last long as Pepe drove at the Genoa defence down the left and crossed into the box where substitute Toni couldn't control the ball which fell to Matri, who dug it out of his feet and fired a missile past Eduardo.
Pepe looked set to find the winner 16 minutes from time as he played a one-two with Toni but Eduardo got a touch and the ball looped up before bouncing agonisingly past the post.
But Toni got the winner as he shrugged off a weak challenge from Dario Dainelli and flicked the ball past Eduardo.
Toni should have closed out the game deep into injury time but somehow shot wide with virtually an open goal to aim at.

In Others' Words: What Would You Wish For?
Today's quote has just a touch of whimsy to it, don't you think?
Haven't we all dreamed of a wish or two coming true? Maybe paused a moment or two longer before we blew out the candles on our birthday cake and wished extra hard for a certain something? Tossed a few coins in a wishing well? Or wondered when our fairy godmother was going to show up and announce she had our longed-for dream all taken care of?
Making a wish for someone else? Now that's a whole other matter, isn't it? A wish-coming-true that would affect someone's future … what would you wish for a just-born child?
In Your Words: Forget the fairy godmother angle. What one thing, what one characteristic, would you consider the most useful gift to endow a child with? What would you wish for if your wish could come true for a newborn child — and influence their future?[Tweet "In Others' Words: What Would You Wish For? #InOthersWords #lifequotes #choices"] [Tweet "" … if a mother could ask a fairy godmother to endow [a child] with the most useful gift, [it] should be curiosity." #quotes #EleanorRoosevelt #children"]

Sure, the calendar still says March, but we're almost through that already—and that's when things in the Seattle area start getting pretty nice. In May, June, July, and August, the temperatures start climbing; the precipitation tapers off, and the number of hours of sunshine increase dramatically.
That's when people in the area like to get out and enjoy more time outside—even to eat. One way to make the most out of those glorious outdoor months is by enhancing your Seattle patio with an outdoor kitchen. Why create a kitchen on your patio?
Everybody wants to be able to enjoy being outside in the warm weather months—including the cook! An outdoor kitchen can put all the convenience of indoor cooking at your disposal—without confining the "chef" to solitary confinement in the house. Here are just a few of the amenities you might want to consider.
- Grill: It's pretty obvious that you're going to want to have a good grill on the patio to cook up your culinary creations. But nobody really enjoys staring at the grill when it's not in use. Enclosing it in a permanent "kitchen" setting makes the space feel more like a room without walls.
- Sink: Often it's really nice to have a sink for preparing food, rinsing vegetables, and even washing a pan or a utensil while preparing your meal. Instead of having to run back indoors to do that, you can take care of those tasks right next to the grill.
- Refrigerator: You may not need a full-sized refrigerator on your patio, but having a small one built into the outdoor kitchen can be awfully convenient. Keep meat and vegetables cool until they're ready to be used. Plus, it's nice to have a place to keep wine, beer, or other beverages cold without hauling a cooler out to the patio.
- Storage: With a permanent outdoor kitchen you can build in storage space for utensils, pots and pans, and even seasonings so that you don't have to retrieve them from the indoor kitchen when you need them. You can even store "outdoor" service ware if you want.
All of those things can enhance your enjoyment of cooking and eating outside during the warm weather months. Of course, it's also extremely important that your patio itself is properly installed. It's not fun eating at an outdoor table where the food slides to one end because the patio isn't level. So make sure whoever builds your outdoor kitchen has experience with installing level surfaces so you don't end up with grilled salmon on your lap!
If you want to gather some ideas and get at least a budget range for creating an outdoor kitchen, I'd encourage you to "Talk to Rob!"and get a little guidance. In just 10 minutes you can learn about some design trends, identify a budget range for your project, and get some guidance about the best approach—even if that approach doesn't involve using us! There's no obligation!
Warmer, drier weather is coming. An outdoor kitchen is one way you can make the most of it!
