Andrew Bogut Expectations

Bogut wasn't protecting the paint like we needed him to yesterday. Jus' sayin.
Houston's a tough matchup for him. Lotta drive and kicks.
Bogut covering Asik inside? Not worried at all. But Bogut crashing a corner to close out on a rotation to get to Parsons or Lin? You can't expect him to be everywhere. We saw a lotta Dramond at the 4, Landry and Lee at the 5 last night. Just a product of the run and gun style you have to adapt to when a team goes super small against you. He'll do much better against Utah. His IQ against a up-and-under wizard like Jefferson who loves to iso on the low post is gonna be a much better showing for him than trying to run around covering a bouncy team like the Rockets. GOLDEN STATE WARRIORS DIE HARD |
Yeah, I am not actually sure how the Jazz can beat us. They have a horrible back court with Williams out and their best offensive player gets owned by Bogut every time they play. If we get blown out that game than I will be worried.
Until then, I am in cruse control. |
So do we shop this guy and his expiring contract this offseason? I'd say it'll be worth exploring. Maybe we couple it with Andris' or RJ's contract and take on a bad contract???
When I say bad contract I mean someone who is more than serviceable just a bit overpaid.
Definetely an option, but let's have a little patience now. If he doesn't show anything near his Bucks-day, I'll say we should try and shop him, not necessarily do it, because in this instance his value will be low.. but dunno. It really depends on what we get back.
As much as I think Bogut is so valuable and as much as he is the only proper Center the franchise has had in some 35 years, he is a real issue now. His "protruding disk in his back" is another injury and this one may not be the first time it's propped up, as he apparently missed time with the Bucks in 2008 and 2009.
I think he'll pull through and be a top 5 Center again, but if he doesn't finish the season playing the last ten games at least, maybe looking to trade him for another good Center, like Asik, is not a bad thing, as it gives more safety and stability. migya make the ring fall on ya |
Who thinks Bogut will get to 20 games this year? He's at 12. After tonight's game, there will be 23 games left. Anybody think he'll be able to clomp through 8 more? And assuming he doesn't obliterate something else that takes 3-9 months to heal (which he may... Who knows, with this guy), how many games (minutes?) can we honestly expect out of him in the playoffs? Is anybody still counting on Bogut to bring something to this team? GOLDEN STATE WARRIORS DIE HARD |
I think we should trade him this off-season.

I don't know, I just disappointed I had really high hopes for Bogut. How patient can you be as a fan.
Believe me, I was one of the people who was balls to walls excited. At this point you have to ask yourself if he's going to improve from what we've seen. You also have to ask yourself whether or not he'll play enough to make an impact. Right now, I'm not too sure if he's going to help us that much with where he's at physically. I'm also very skeptical that he'll stay on the court long enough to give this team a chance to build chemistry with him. You couple that with him currently being the highest paid payer and it's almost a no-brainer. I'm sure it's going to cost us either Bogut/Biedrins/RJ + our 2014 1st rounder + Klay or Barnes to get a superstar in here to help Curry, but I'm for it right now. |

With an injured Bogut, and further with his history of injury his value is i can imagine is real low. And brings me to the second point, how patient can we be ? Curry needs help bad, it seems lately everyone has been regressing except for Curry. At the end I think we just have to be patient until all the expires disappear, although its a real hard choice right now, because that means mediocrity next year, with the same roster. |
Bogut is an expirer, and if you're a team whose looking to get rid of a big contract, who would you rather have? Andris Bierdrins or Andrew Bogut?

Yes Jefferson, Beans, and Bogut, will have one year left on their contract after this season. Never thought Id say Beans will be more useful to a team than Bogut. Bogut is too risky plus when he gets back, he will never be the same after all these injuries. |

An oil filter is subjected to great stresses. During a cold-start, the pressure increases to double that of the normal in a few seconds.If the temperature is below freezing, there are high demands on elasticity and pressure tolerance of the filter seals.
Advantages of genuine Volvo oil filters:
- filter media of special type that filters harmful particles.- elastic bonded joints that prevent leaks due to vibrations and pressure.- special rubber that seals between the filter and mounting.- heavy-duty sheet metal casing that protects against shocks and impacts.
Contact your dealer for more information about Volvo oil filters.

Highlights: Rwanda (Parc National des Volcans)
In the heart of Central Africa, so high up that you shiver more than you sweat, are great, old volcanoes towering up almost 15,000 feet, and nearly covered with rich, green rainforest - the Virungas - home of the rare mountain gorilla. Drive from Kigali airport to the Park des Volcanoes where you will be based for your gorilla trek. A full day in the Virunga mountains gives you the opportunity to visit with mankind's closest relative. The mountain gorilla shares 97% of human DNA. On your second day at the park, seek the equally rare golden monkeys (or pay for an additional day of gorilla trekking). Option to visit the Dian Fossey's grave. Return on your final day for a city tour and visit to a genocide memorial. Enjoy as a standalone Africa vacation or as an addition to a safari. NOTE: Gorilla permits are $750 for Rwanda and they are secured with you trip's deposit. Once secured they are non-refundable. It will take 24-48 hours to secure the purchase from the authorities as they are sold on a first come first served basis. The park authority/management reserves the right to cancel any permit without any refund or further reference.
A privately driven vehicle will provide you with a transfer to & from the airport.
Take your flight from Nairobi to Kigali today. The flight duration is approximately 1hr 30mins.
Your guide will take you out on an excursion through Kigali today. Visit some of the popular market places before heading out to a location of heart aching cultural history. The Kigali Genocide Memorial Centre was opened on the 10th Anniversary of the Rwandan Genocide, in April 2004. The Centre is built on a site where an estimated 250,000 people we`re buried. The Centre is serves as a permanent memorial to the victim of the genocide and serves as a place where people can grieve those that they have lost. One of the principle reasons for the Centres existence is to provide educational information regarding the genocide. Rwandans believe that it is extremely important for the younger generations to be able to have access to a place where they can learn about the reasons and affects of the genocide. The Centre includes three permanent exhibitions, the largest of which documents the genocide in 1994. There is also a children's memorial, and an exhibition on the history of genocidal violence around the world. The Education Centre, Memorial Gardens and National Documentation Centre of the Genocide all contribute to a meaningful tribute to those who perished, and form a powerful educational tool for the next generation.
Travel today between Kigali and Parc National des Volcans by private car and english speaking driver.
The Mountain Gorilla View Lodge is the new mid range lodge in the area and is perfectly situated for gorilla tracking in Rwanda. The 30 individual cottages have been built on 4 acres of land on the slopes of Mt Sabinyo. The stone and thatch cottages each have ensuite facilities, a small lounge with a fire place and a private veranda. The cottages are of a good size and are well positioned to give them privacy from each other. There is a separate restaurant and bar area where meals served to the guests. Mountain Gorilla View Lodge provides good value for money at the same time as great views and easy access to Parc National des Volcans.
The Park des Volcanoes is located in the Virunga Mountains, a magnificent chain of dormant volcanoes in the North of the country, and home to the world´s last surviving mountain Gorilla populations, currently a mere 700 individuals. A full day trek with your guide through the park is a reasonably strenuous activity which can last the morning or all day as you seek out the gorilla families. Viewing time is limited to one hour, and only 8 maximum are allowed per group. Visitors are asked to maintain a distance of 7m (about 22 feet) from the gorillas. Kids under age 15, or people sick with a cold, flu or other contagious illness, are not allowed to visit the gorillas.
Trekking through the national park to view the rare species of Golden Monkeys. Only open for visitors since June 2003, enjoy a rare treat watching these unique primates play and perform in the forest. (Optional extra day gorilla trekking - $500pp additional cost for day permit)
A private vehicle with English speaking driver will provide a transfer today from Parc National des Volcans to Kigali. The approximate travel time is 2 hours and 30 minutes.
Take your flight from Kigali to Nairobi today. The flight duration is approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes.

Pityriasis lichenoides et varioliformis acuta
See Disclaimer regarding information on this site. Some links on this page may take you to organizations outside of the National Institutes of Health.
Pityriasis lichenoides et varioliformis acuta (PLEVA) is a rare skin disorder that is characterized as a more severe form of pityriasis lichenoides. Signs and symptoms usually begin with itchy, burning skin lesions that ulcerate, breakdown, form open sores, then form a red-brown crust. Individuals with PLEVA may also experience a low-grade fever, headache, malaise (a vague feeling of bodily discomfort), and arthralgias (severe joint pain); these symptoms may occasionally precede or accompany the skin findings. The underlying cause of pityriasis lichenoides and PLEVA is unknown. Febrile ulceronecrotic Mucha-Habermann disease (FUMHD) is a rare and severe form of PLEVA.[1][2]

Samuel L. Jackson, Normal stuff, and WTF. It's PMV time!
1.) Twilight Jackson reads "Go The F*ck To Sleep"
2.) "I Can Have a Dark Side" PMV
oh god, i laugh hard enough at "Go the fuck to sleep" as is, i can't imagine what the ponied version is going to do to me.
I never happened to listen to Jackson's reading of "Go The F*ck to Sleep" until now. It's so beautiful and the video fits with it.
#1 was well, interesting.
#2 made me lol, but it was mostly the song.
#3 was so awesome that it gave me a tumor. i loled at 8 bit trombone.
Yes! Finally "I can have a dark side" popped up here! That's an awesome one!
I was hoping for Renard when i saw the title. I was not dissapointed.
I think #3 failed to realize the origin of the rapidfire hard-to-understand singing part in GOT MY PONY SPAM FOR YOU. It's from an older pony song, "Silly Pony", about Applejack, and clips used at that point use almost none of her.
In my opinion, not as good as another PONY SPAM PMV that was posted here a bit back: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DlGRs--npNY
No insult meant, of course, but the other one was just REALLY well made. Also, after the Reggie Watts video, there are pretty high standards set for using that Flutterguy clip, and the lipsynch, while not horrible, wasn't nearly as good as in that.
Also, for Go the Fuck to Sleep, I'm pretty sure I liked this more than the original, because seeing the storybook text gave me a cetain "It's gonna be read this way" expectation and he has pauses and timing and inflections that didn't quite match what I would've liked better. Good work.
#3 after 2:08, very VERY confused. Partially frightened. What did I just see?
Oh good Lord, #1. Too freakin' epic for words. I love it.
1 was hilarious,
2 was okay,
3 was a trip. A really, really weird trip.
#1 heard the audio before it's still awesome lol
#2 Tim Minchim, a Pearl Jam reference and ponies?!?!?!?
#3 was a bit odd for my tastes
1: Actually hadn't heard his reading of it, and ponies only made the experience more...magical.
2: Pretty awesome.
3: Breakdown:
1st third: Wow, this is happy and random.
2nd third: Wow, this is relaxing, bet it gets happy again, though!
Final third: Creepywoah.
3 was well done, but it's totally redundant- the song's had an excellent PMV since May.
Okay, this means SO much to me. I discovered Go the F**k to Sleep at the same time I became a brony.
1. hahaha
2. oddly entertaining, probably because Pinkie
3. OAH. is this a PMV or a YTPMV? or an...other
i created the last video here, "PINKIE PIE'S PONY SPAM". ^^ i love reading the hilarious comments. :D thank you Equestira Daily for the feature! love you guys!
So we have Samuel L. Jackson and Tim Minchin in the same update. The perfect mixture of badass and nerdy humour.
That first one was simply hilarious. Samuel L. Jackson, oh goodness. XD
Second wasn't bad, song was kinda funny too. And Pinkie, especially at the end there. Wtf. lol
I knew it! Thought that beginning sounded like Silly Pony. Interesting mix there. Not bad.
If I wasn't so tired, This would have had me on the floor laughing!
1: lol...wow
2: i don't get it...
3: O.O what? That was cool an' all but wut?
#3- When Pinkie's voice got all raspy, I shivered.
#2- Once again, I'm introduced to great music through the brony community. Nice PMV too.
#1: Twilight with Samual L. Jackson = amazingness.
#2: Thoroughly enjoyed.
#3: What did I just watch? I don't even know how to begin describing it. I just... nope, still no words. All I can say is great job, and Fluttershy singing Drop It Like It's Hot is now a favorite of mine.

"Good Feet" The Who's, What's and Why's
Posted 25 June 2009 - 10:07 PM
Monica Mason had great feet, they were so witty, they licked the floor. It's that ACTION that makes feet good.

Yes, there are many ways to deconstruct the meaning of "good feet", however when I read or hear someone talk about a certain dancer having "good feet" I immediately think of feet like Rojo, Guillem or Hallberg.
Beautiful arched feet whether or not they actually work well are a criteria for entrance into schools and companies, though thankfully behind more important considerations such as artistry, technique, dance quality.
When I was a whippersnapper I gained entrance to White Lodge and at my audition even as a child I was asked to point my foot to see my arch, I have a very high arch and that was duly noted. Of course at 10 I was unable to use that arch and the foot in a fully realised way, but arch and instep are what's looked for at this basic level.
I wanted the OP to look at Kirkland in that Coppelia video because regardless of her physical and mental state at that time there are several beautiful beautiful balances and she uses her feet in a lyrical, evocative manner which I think for a ballet novice is a good example of a petit allegro/unsupported balance solo for a ballerina. Also it's one of the very very few films which exist of her which are accessible to the general public. Balanchine said of Kirkland she had the best balance of any ballerina he ever worked with.
I feel that the ensuing debate became something of an information overload for the OP who is just discovering ballet and is kind of alienating.

Actually -- no! The OP was remarking on comments on youtube, etc -- and you get comments re: bad feet on several ballet greats -- truth being, these feet aren't bad, and many of us consider them to be 'good feet' ------ it's all subjective!
And this is probably getting a bit board on boards........

And this is probably getting a bit board on boards........
But Ami this is exactly my point. All the subsequent debate completely confused the issue. It's why I decided to illustrate the answer on the most basic level with pictures of feet which are considered "good" on pointe.
The minutiae of technique is incredibly alienating to ballet novices. If and when he wants to delve into the wider implications of feet and how they're used/trained in ballet that's further down the line.
This thread actually for me sums up why I have such a hard time of convincing my non ballet loving friends of why this is a wonderful, legitimate art form for everyone. It quickly can seem horrendously exclusory and exclusive. I purposely wanted to answer a total ballet novices question in a simple, clean and graphic manner.
How a top flight technician such as Rojo uses her feet is wonderful, yes, I agree, but it's a connoisseur's appreciation. It's meaningless to read when written in detail for a novice ballet goer. He didn't want debate or to open a can of ballet worms - he wanted a good accessible starting point to explore the art form at his own pace.
I noticed that the OP hasn't been back since, I just hope we haven't scared him off.

I'm embarassed to admit that I never knew which part of the foot the "instep" is, until I learned it here from ami1436 and Hans's bog
It's fascinating to watch Tamara Rojo (in Five Brahms Waltzes in the Manner of Isadora Duncan) in the context of this topic. Her bare left foot at the beginning of the first waltz is exquisite in profile, especially the relationship between the high instep and the relatively small, extended toes. As Rojo skips across the floor, it's the curve of her instep (leading the foot forward, with toes point down toward the floor) that captures my attention. I would not have focused on this if I had not been reading this thread.
Thanks to all for sharing your expertise.

Simon G -- sorry for being quick earlier. To put it simply, the debates on youtube, etc, often include the type of discussion we are having here: aesthetics vs. use -- and thus I think the details are actually helpful. As to why the OP has yet to return... not everyone is as obsessed as I!

Re - good feet. I really don't like noticing feet as a separate thing. Good feet complete/enhance a line whether it is an arabesque line or a line in the air (during a jump), and there are essential elements of strength and flexibility. If I walk away from a performance thinking about the arch or beauty of a dancer's foot, I think there is a problem.

ANN ARBOR, Mich., March 12, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- The squeak of the shoes balances with the rhythmic beat of the ball bouncing off the hardwood while thousands of fans cheer on their teams in one of the most exciting sporting events of the year.

The suspected "Plain Jane Bandit," wanted for six bank robberies and two failed attempts in Riverside, Los Angeles and Orange counties, is now behind bars, the FBI announced Friday.
Sylvia Helen Garcia, 38, was arrested near her Downey home late Thursday afternoon after the FBI received tips from people who had seen surveillance photos displayed in media reports, FBI spokeswoman Laura Eimiller said.
At the time, Garcia was driving a silver vehicle that matched the description provided by witnesses to some of the bank heists, Eimiller said. Additional evidence allegedly tying Garcia to the robberies was also recovered during the arrest, she said.
Garcia is being held at the Lakewood Sheriff's Station and is
The Plain Jane Bandit is believed responsible for a series of robberies that began July 12 in Santa Fe Springs and included heists or attempted holdups in Whittier, Moreno Valley, Buena Park and Wildomar, Eimiller said. The latest robbery took place in Cerritos on Tuesday, following a failed attempt the day before in Downey.
During the robberies, the suspect demanded cash from tellers, in some cases specifying amounts of several hundred dollars, according to Eimiller.
The suspect also indicated that an accomplice was waiting for her outside the bank, but she was probably working alone, Eimiller said.
Witnesses described the suspect as an Latino woman between
During an interview with a witness to one of the earlier robberies, the thief's appearance was described as that of a "plain Jane," thus giving the bank robber a catchy nickname, Eimiller said.
No one answered the door Friday afternoon at an apartment with an address listed under Garcia's name, but witnesses said they saw a man and three children leave the apartment earlier in an attempt to avoid the gathering media.
Witnesses said three children climbed out of the back window of the ground-floor apartment, and then a man, believed to be Garcia's husband, ran out the front door to meet them at a car before driving away. The man had his head covered and was carrying two luggage-type bags, they said.
Neighbor Alex Mendez said Garcia and her family hadn't ever drawn attention at the apartment complex.
"I don't know her personally, but I see her come in and out of the apartment," Mendez said. "Never paid much attention to them because they look like nice people."
He said Garcia has three young children, a boy and two girls, and that he didn't know how long the family had been living at the Galleon Deluxe Apartments, which is a two-story complex with about a dozen units in a well-kept residential area on Stewart and Gray Road west of Paramount Boulevard.

Former police officer sues city of Prosper
By Bill Conrad, email@example.com, @Bill_PlanoStar on Twitter
A former Prosper police officer has filed a federal lawsuit against the city claiming he was terminated in retaliation for complaining about an affair he alleges occurred between his wife and a fellow police officer.
David Lightfoot, who worked with the department for eight years until he was fired in December 2010, is seeking unspecified monetary damages. He claims that in addition to his firing, the city of Prosper has prevented him from gaining employment elsewhere in retaliation for his complaints.
The lawsuit says Lightfoot was married to Amy Bockes, who was employed by the city's municipal court, in 1999, prior to either working for the city. Lightfoot claims he began to suspect Bockes was having an affair with Assistant Chief Gary McHone in April 2010, and that he was proven correct one month later.
Lightfoot eventually took his complaints to Town Manager Mike Land, as well as Mayor Ray Smith and Councilman David Vestal.
"As before, Lightfoot's grievances had little evident impact on the state of affairs within his workplace," the suit reads.
After months of what Lightfoot regarded as mistreatment from McHone and McFarlin, the issue came to a head in December 2010 when Lightfoot was told he had the option of being fired or resigning. He chose to resign and was hired by the Northlake Police Department at what the suit describes as a "substantial cut in pay."
When he applied for a job at McKinney PD, he was rejected because of information in his personnel file that the suit claims was false, and potentially put there by Prosper PD in retaliation for his speaking out about the affair.
Prosper spokesman Celso Martinez said the city had no official comment on the pending lawsuit.
"We will let the legal process move forward and will testify if called to do so," he said.
The complaint was filed in the Eastern District of Texas. In addition to the city, McHone, McFarlin and Bockes are also listed as defendants.

The God's Politics blog seeks to run a variety of opinions on important issues of faith, politics, and culture. Unlike pieces by Jim Wallis and Sojourners staff, other opinions expressed on this blog do not necessarily represent the position of Sojourners.
We have come to Kenya to hear our brothers and sisters bear witness to the ways environmental degradation and recent changes in the climate are harming them. Their testimony is disturbing and compelling. We are privileged to hear their stories, and honored by their trust in us as bearers of the message that they and their land, water, and air are suffering. Their words are a painful reminder of the brokenness of our world.
It is the most vulnerable in our world who suffer primarily and predominately from climate and other environment-related problems. While here, we are reminded that it is the poor who are affected first of all, and most of all, by these problems. The loss of one season's crop can be catastrophic for those who live on the margins. Today, we are looking at massive dislocations in the ecosystems which sustain our world and all the life on it. Of these dislocations, the world's poorest bear the brunt.
Moms should be celebrated, and they deserve all the flowers, spa days, pampering, and gifts given to them. I love my mom and I can't thank her enough for all she has done for me and my family — Mother's Day doesn't even begin to cover the gratitude I have for her.
But for many, Mother's Day is the most painful day of the year. For women who have experienced miscarriages, have had children die, have had abortions, who want to have kids but are struggling or unable to, have had to give up their children or currently have broken relationships with their kids, the holiday serves as a stark reminder filled with personal sorrow.
Christian communities can be especially harsh because of their tendencies to show favoritism to the idea of motherhood — as if mothers are somehow more holy and righteous than non-mothers. In an effort to praise and empower marriage, healthy parenting, families, and the sanctity of life, Christian subculture often mistakenly and unintentionally alienates those around us — especially women.
The Great Gatsby doesn't exactly fit the mold for a story about poverty. It doesn't play into the typical genre created by Dickens or Sinclair meant to incite social change by depicting feeble orphans or working-class suffering. Gatsby is a story of excess: of tall buildings, big parties, fancy clothes, shiny cars—all that 1920s glam and glitz.
And yet — distilled to its core, The Great Gatsby is a story of poorness from the lens of richness, a rags-to-riches story where we only get to see the riches. Though high school English classes across the country paint Jay Gatsby as the poster child for the American dream and its subsequent loss, The Great Gatsby gets its poignancy not from what is lost but rather what lingers — Gatsby's offstage childhood poverty that not even money can erase. For underneath Jay Gatsby's million-dollar façade is James Gatz, a college-dropout, janitor-turned-swindler "young roughneck" from a poor family.
We return to the benefits of connecting with others, and the dangers of allowing society to drift into one in which we count it too dangerous to trust.
Jesus' prayer affirms this: I need other people. I do, if I want the chance to experience union with God and plunge into the heart of what God is about. And I don't need only other people who are like me; love requires me to attend to a wider group. When I'm very different from someone else and yet we manage to live into an authentic unity supported by trust, we may gain a glimpse into God's own wideness, perhaps discovering God to be more than we predicted.
For Jesus does not limit the venues for encountering God to churches and to groups of familiar people. What keeps it from being possible in public life, as well? It must be possible to encounter God there, given the world's need to know God (verse 25) and God's love for the world.
Lately I have been spending a lot of time reading the book of James. Reading this small yet powerful book has challenged me to think and re-think the very nature and meaning of faith.
I have found it interesting to listen to people speak about faith. Often faith is used to describe what a person believes and does not believe. For example, we might say that we believe in God, Jesus, Allah, Mohammed, Torah, the Bible, the Quran, and so forth. What people say they believe is then equated with their faith. Faith in God means that he or she believes in God. Because I believe in God, I have faith. Faith and belief seem to be synonymous.
This understanding or definition of faith, however, does not seem synonymous with actions or the way we live. Although ideally we believe that faith should affect the way we act, we still speak about faith and action separately. In other words, faith and living out that faith — action — is differentiated and understood separately. For example, it might be possible to have faith, yet not live a life that is based or reflects that faith. It might be possible to have faith in God, even in Jesus, but act in ways that are ungodly or un-Christ-like – participating in violence and war, killing, being inhumane, lying, cheating, being corrupt, and so forth. Although we may act in these ways, and participate in actions that are less than holy, the claim remains that we still have faith. We have faith because we believe in something.
In her 1968 poem, "The Speed of Darkness," the late American poet Muriel Rukeyser penned the line, "The universe is made of stories, not of atoms."
While the medium is different, a new feature-length documentary, Girl Rising, also bares witness to the same truth in poetic images and stories of girls from around the world.
Through the vivid accounts of nine girls from the developing world — Cambodia, Nepal, Peru, Afghanistan, Egypt, Sierra Leone, Ethiopia, Haiti, and India — and their valiant struggles for the right to be educated, Girl Rising articulates a universal truth: Educating girls ensures a safer, healthier and more prosperous world for all of us.
The film, a project of the 10×10 Campaign to educate and empower girls, paired a girl in each locale with an accomplished writer — novelists, journalists, and screenwriters — from their own developing country to help craft and tell the stories in the girls' own words.
An undisclosed community on Wednesday accepted the body of Boston bombing suspect Tamerlan Tsarnaev, which is now "entombed," according to police in Worcester, Mass.
Tsarnaev's uncle, Ruslan Tsarni, found a funeral home in Worcester to handle the body, but had struggled to get a cemetery to accept it. The Boston Globe reported that the body is buried in a community outside Massachusetts.
"As a result of our public appeal for help, a courageous and compassionate individual came forward to provide the assistance needed to properly bury the deceased," read a statement posted on the Worcester Police Department's website.
Today, three years to the day after my daughter Katherine's ("Katie's") death (May 9, 2010), we inter her cremains. "IT'S RAINING, IT'S POURING" was written the day we learned that Katie's incurable Leiomyosarcoma had taken a turn for the worse. In memory of Katherine ("Katie") Elizabeth Slaikeu Nolan.
Gordon C. Stewart Feb. 11, 2009
It's raining, it's pouringThe old man is snoringHe went to bed and he bumped his headAnd couldn't get up in the morning
It's a day like that. I bumped my head on the illness of a 33 year-old loved one. It's raining sadness. I'm having trouble getting out of bed in the morning.
Terminal illness has a way of doing that unless you believe in miracles of divine intervention or you have extraordinary powers of denial.
One of us was in Seattle this past weekend to speak at a meeting of biblical scholars. The subject:Evangelicals and the Environment. Seattle was stunningly beautiful, with ample sunshine, clear skies, and an occasional happy breeze. Having grown up in nearby Tacoma, seeing majestic Mount Rainier for the first time in a long while brought back memories of this silent guardian from childhood.
Alas, while it was sunny in Seattle, it was theologically cloudy in Dallas, where one of Seattle's famous residents — young, hip pastor, Mark Driscoll — was speaking at a major evangelical conference: Catalyst. By many accounts on Twitter and in the blogosphere (see Nate Pyle's blog), Driscoll said:
"I know who made the environment. He's coming back and he's going to burn it all up. So yes, I drive an SUV."
And after presenting his driving credentials, Rev. Driscoll reportedly added:
"If you drive a mini-van, you're a mini-man."
Quote of the day. "In the clothing industry, everybody wears it every day, but we have no idea where it comes from. People are starting to slowly clue in to this notion of where products are made." Michael Preysman, chief executive and founder of Everlane, an online boutique, which is adding to its website photographs of factories where that clothing is made and information about the production.

ItÂs a fairly new book and if your still thinking that eating flesh foods, (those of you who go off raw and decide you need eggs and cheese) and that you need more protein or are concerned about the protein your getting you really may want to read this book. ItÂs a hard book to skim through because if you donÂt read the studies you donÂt get the full effect, but its not a difficult book to read. Although this is stuff that most of us know, the man who wrote it is one of the leading health researchers and was the scientist who discovered aflatoxin (the toxin found in peanuts). If your new to all this and still wondering about protein or for those of you who already know this, its just really one of the best books ive read since John Robbins Diet for a New America, it just puts it into perspective and gives you the facts and information to back up what you may already know. You can find it anywhere, its pretty popular right now.

MacDev Drone DX Board / PSP Mode update!
Posted 17 January 2013 - 03:06 PM
If you remember the review I did on the Drone DX, I commented on the "ramping" mode being a bit noncompetitive for PSP play. Well MacDev listened!
They are now releasing a firmware update on their guns. Going forward, all new guns will have this new mode, and it looks like they are working on a way to "flash" the older boards to include the PSP mode.
This is awesome, because the PSP mode is a very powerful, must have firemode if you compete in tournaments.
Video of the review, the comments I made about the board are towards the end of the video-
It's one of the things I love about my job. I give honest reviews, the companies listen, they make small changes and the players and customers ultimately win in the end!!!! GREAT JOB MACDEV!!!!!!!!!! CAN'T WAIT TO TEST OUT THE NEW BOARD!!!

I personally love the GT's trigger, in my opinion G6R's and Clone's are the best feeling / easiest markers to shoot in semi auto.

I gotta disagree with ya a bit Alex on this one. Trigger SHAPE is preference, but trigger DESIGN is not.
There are certain characteristics, that make a well designed trigger very pleasant to pull, even though you may not like the actual shape.
Things such as -
* "extended inner raceway" ball bearings, so that the trigger doesn't rub on the inside of the trigger well. Look at a G6R Trigger, how frictionless that is compared to a shocker SFT/NXT trigger. Check out the pic below. The middle bearing has extended inner raceways, this way you can tighten the trigger down, and it still won't rub against the trigger well, dragging and slowing down the trigger
* Good adjustments on the post travel, pre travel, spring tension, activation point. Look at a Geo 2.1's trigger, how well it's designed versus a DM trigger. The DM's adjustments are terrible, the springs are ALWAYS too stiff, and the conical screws tend to wiggle inside of the threading, moving the points of adjustment. Also, the DM has no activation point screw, it's fixed
* Pivot point - the natural angle of the hand/knuckles is a 45 degree angle, and the plane is usually from the player's forehead through the trigger guard and pointed at the ground. Pivot points that are in front of the trigger (Evil Pimp) instead of BEHIND the trigger (Alias Intimidator) tend to be slower shooting guns, because your middle finger needs to travel much father to get the pull. You miss alot of pulls
* Trigger Edge - most people don't pull the trigger straight back, they press it from the side. Having a trigger that is rounded a little bit (Geo 3 / Ego 11) versus a trigger with sharp edges (Clone/Drone) feels alot more comfortable when pulling the trigger.
If a $450 Axe can have an amazing trigger, no reason any other gun that costs more shouldn't have it either. Triggers are EXTREMELY important in my opinion, if the gun has a shitty feeling trigger out of the box, everything just tends to go downhill from there.

June 29 – Happy Birthday Bobby Veach
Today's Pinstripe Birthday celebrant was an outstanding ballplayer who struggled to get good press because he always played in the same outfield with Hall of Famers. He started his career in 1912 with the Tigers, playing left field alongside the immortal Ty Cobb and the great Sam Crawford. When Crawford called it quits, Harry Heilmann took his place and Veach remained the third best outfielder on the team. How good was he? He drove in over 100 runs six different times, leading the league in that category in 1915, '17 and '18. From 1915 until 1922, no one in baseball had more RBIs or extra base hits than Bobby Veach. He averaged better than .300 in seven of his last eight seasons in Detroit and finished his 14-year big league career with a .310 lifetime mark. He was also an excellent defensive outfielder and one of the game's best bunters. This guy was a reliable star who played the game hard but not mean. It was this lack of meanness that his mercurial teammate, Cobb did not appreciate. When the Georgia Peach took over as Tiger skipper in 1920, he was bound and determined to trade Veach but Bobby kept playing so well he made it difficult to justify such a move. Finally, in 1923, another future Hall of Fame outfielder named Heinie Manush showed up in Detroit, making Veach expendable. The Tigers sold the St. Charles, Kentucky native, who was by then 35-years-old, to the Red Sox. He had a very good year in Boston in 1924. In early May of the following season, Veach was traded to the Yankees. He appeared in 56 games for New York and one of his 127 Yankee at bats made history when he became the first and only player to ever pinch hit for Babe Ruth. He ended up hitting .353 during his one partial season in the Bronx but that Yankee team was so loaded with talent, Veach was waived before the end of the year. The Senators picked him up and he ended up playing in his only World Series that year with Washington. 1925 turned out to be Veach's last season as a big leaguer.

Glad you liked Karen!
Crust ingredients:
1 cup cashews
1 cup dried, unsweetened coconut
1/2 cup dates
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
Banana filling:
2 medium bananas
3/4 cup cashews
1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup lemon juice
1/3 cup coconut oil
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/8 teaspoon sea salt
1. Place all crust ingredients in the food processor. Process until the mixture sticks together and the dates are well processed.
2. Dump crust mixture into your pie crust/glass dish. Press the crust down firmly in your dish with your hands. (Crust is now done.)
3. Add all banana filling ingredients to your blender. Blend until creamy and smooth.
4. Pour banana cream filling onto the crust. Smooth out with the back of a spoon.
8. Cover and throw in freezer. Ideally should be frozen overnight to firm up so that it can be sliced perfectly.
9. This raw banana cream pie recipe should always be kept in the freezer. (It'll get soggy if in the fridge.)
The Rawtarian's Thoughts
I was inspired to create this raw banana cream pie recipe for Christmas this year. It is soo smooth, so "banana creamy" and just absolutely perfect. (Can you tell I am on a freezer pie kick??)
It's actually pretty fast to make - just a quick food process and an easy blend. Even a crappy blender should be able to handle this raw recipe.
Using perfectly ripe bananas will give you that divine banana cream pie taste. (You want to use perfectly ripe bananas - not too green and not too brown.)
If you don't do honey you can do agave nectar or maple syrup instead of the honey. Use the same measurements.
Enjoy this raw banana cream pie recipe! Isn't it pretty?
Your raw recipe package has been sent to your email
Be sure to check your spam or bulk mail folders if you can't find your package. Enjoy your raw adventure!
I just made it as a surprise for my fiance for Valentines day. I can not wait to eat it! The cream is delicious even before it's frozen in the pie :)
I am very keen to try this however don't like coconut. Can you please suggest a substitute for the coconut oil in particular? Thank you!
I made this today as a dessert for our dinner: vegan shepherdess's pie and braised chard with mustard vinaigrette. We loved it. Not too sweet, but creamy, cool, and lovely layers of texture. And a nice foil for the hearty dinner. I think the filling makes a nice custard/pudding before it's frozen. Soooo good. Thanks!
Converting the other half to the Paleo lifestyle is alot easier with recipies like this, served it up with some whipped coconut cream....
Thanks a million ;)
this is one of the greatest desserts of all time. added 2 bananas for the extra banana zing and added flax seed to the crust out of habit and this goes in the wowee category even for the husband.
Thank to all ur recipes It been so easy for me to change my life style. This raw banana cream pie it's something to die for... OMG I'm addicted to ur app hope u post a "raw spaghetti in tomatoes sauce or pesto sauce recipe" God bless u rawtarian
I love this recipe! I made it last week for after Church refreshments and it went down a storm.......I was shocked especially as the folk who enjoyed it most of all......turn their noses up at the idea of raw food and even more so if it's raw and vegan! I also tried your raw carrot cake (for us at home) and LOVED it. Totally yummy, very filling and just sweet enough to curb me searching for anything else and ruining my diet. Thank you :)
Your recipes are a revelation to me on my journey of discovery with raw - am going to make the cheesecake next because that looks fabulous....and I have to do after Church rfreshments in April, so am going to make it for that. Thank you for sharing your talent with everyone and for making raw so appealing. xx
I am working my way through these recipes :) Have tried to go raw twice before and fell off the wagon big time because I just couldn't eat the recipes - and I wasn't ready for just fruit and salad. However... I've now made the raw egg salad (divine) the raw tuna (had it for lunch today!!) and the raw chicken salad and they were ALL wonderful!!! I really think I can do this now. Just made the pie - my first dessert - and the cream out of the blender is delicious. Can't wait till it freezes. Even my husband is becoming enthusiastic about this :)
I am SO glad I found your website
Hello Rawry :D
Im a vegan, so not honey for me, what would you suggest to use instead of honey?
Cant wait to pig out on this!!!!!
Made this yesterday and it's gorgeous. My base has resolutely remained crumbly though, despite all the ingredients and instructions being followed to the letter. How much (weight) is half cup of dates because I'm wondering if I just didn't put enough in? Still, gives me a fanstastic reason to make another pie straight away!!!
Do you have any suggestions to substitute the coconut flakes in the crust? I'm one of the rare people that doesn't like coconut or the texture the flakes give. I can handle the coconut oil fortunately. The recipe sounds amazing though!!
The only thing wrong with this recipe is the serving size (in the pic). I could eat four of those in one sitting and I'm fairly slim... I'm curious how all of us that are on a lowfat vegan diet aren't going to get fat eating all these yummy foods with nuts. I know nuts are good fat but ... how does that work? You're so thin. Is there a trick?
ps: If you can, please suggest how to get a photo on the avatar. Thanks-
Is there anything I can use as an alternative to coconut oil? Thanks
Hello, I would like to try your recipe but here in Croatia there is no coconout meat,
what substitution can I get instead?
Thanks so much for this recipe and for all the recipes on your site. :) Tried this one tonight and so far, I'm loving it! (well, I loved it before it went into the freezer, so I'm sure it will be amazing once it comes out) Just a side note for anybody out there who doesn't have fresh bananas, I ended up using 2 frozen bananas and the recipe still came out great! Had to "encourage" it a little more in my blender with a spatula (I used a Blendtec), but otherwise, it worked out well. I will have to make it again soon with fresh bananas (woe is me) to see if there's a big taste difference, but I loved the creamy banana filling that came out of my blender :)
I made this cake as our anniversary cake! It is delicious! My husband loved it. Thank you for sharing your recipes :)
This is divine!!!! Our children love it!!! I substitute the sweetener with "rice malt syrup" (which doesn't contain fructose). Tastes a treat. Thank you. We've made it several times and it is soooo yummy and creamy and delicious ... you can tell we like it, hey?!!! with love from Australia
I looove your website and all your recipes, they're fantastic! I just have a query about this Banana Cream Pie recipe, Im a student and so I don't have very much money and I was just wondering if I could swap the coconut oil for coconut cream as a cheaper alternative? Would the banana filling still turn out the same consistency?
This is honestly the BEST banana cream pie I have ever tasted. My husband and I are loving it. Thank you Laura Jane for creating all your amazing recipes. This one is even better than our other fave, the chocolate covered shortbread bars.
For the banana filling, should I soak the cashews first
I love this recipe! Thank you so much! I shared this banana cream pie with my friends and they also loved it! :)
The only mistake I did was I used unripe banana.... But it was still delicious! So now, I can't wait to make this again with ripe banana :P

A few words about me...
I moved to San Francisco from Brooklyn, NY in 2006 to launch Education.com. I've never been more inspired than I am now and that seems to increase every day as I watch our site expand, our team grow and our company culture develop.
I'm particularly proud to be focused on an initiative that can have a positive impact and help people get what they need to succeed in life.
In the left over hours, I spend time listening to music and exploring Northern California.
