Troy Murphy
Troy Murphy
posted at 3/7/2011 3:00 PM ESTDid we bring in Murphy as an insurance policy in case we are not 100% healthy come playoff time? I just don't see him fitting in the playoff rotation at all. We can only suit up 12 and I am sure Doc will have an 8-9 man rotation come the second round of the playoffs and onwards. That would mean if healthy we have:
Where does that leave Murphy? Is he just here in case someone goes down injured? I like the moves Danny did but if we are somewhat healthy come playoff time I don't think there is enough minutes to go around. This is not a bad thing I guess if you have a surplus of extra bigs just in case but I think Murphy might be too good to be just an insurance policy for us.

Re: Troy Murphy
posted at 3/7/2011 3:27 PM ESTNo it doesn't answer the question but you are right. That is a nasty 9 man rotation with Murphy and a potentailly healthy Jermaine O'neal on the bench.

posted at 3/8/2011 2:34 AM ESTThe Celtics are going to win the Championship this year.
They simply have the deepest most talented roster in the league.
Danny Ainge is the executive of the year for what he has done since the training deadline.
Troy Murphy is a solid NBA player. The reason why people dog him was because he was paid like a #1 or #2 scorer , a franchise cornerstone. Don't hate the guy because he had a great agent and Chris Mullin was a lousy GM for Golden State......Troy Murphy is a solid 7th to 10th man in the rotation for any team in the NBA (other than this years Celtics team)
On this team, he is insurance and with all the injuries - he is solid insurance.
He hasn't played much all year and his job is to get in shape over the last 20 games. Come playoff time he might get 10 minutes a game or less. He might not get any minutes some games. Bottom line - for minimum wage, for the last 20 games and the playoffs , he is a GREAT insurance policy.
In addition, the Celtics get to look at him and see if he fits in their plans for next season. Imagine if the Celtics had the same opportunity to look at Jermaine for the last 20 games of the season and the playoffs last season ? Do you think they would have given him a $12M/2yr deal ?
There's no downside to having Troy Murphy on the team for the stretch run and the playoffs. Let him eat up as many minutes as possible before the playoffs and have him ready if needed for the playoffs.
Why all the stupidity and whining about his performance when he's only been with the team for 3 games ? Heck, he's already given the team what Rasheed gave them all season last year. (which is not much).
How about giving the guy a couple of weeks to at least learn his role and see how he looks then ? They guy has always been a solid pro, let him shake off the rust before labeling him a bust, OK ?
What kind of drugs are all you negative people on ?
Fellowship Of The Miserable indeed !
I love the Troy Murphy move. What if Big Baby doesn't make it back at all ? They way he looked like he got injured on the way up was exactly the way Garnett looked when he got injured.
Chill out and enjoy the show...
The Celtics are going to win the championship !
Re: Troy Murphy
posted at 3/8/2011 7:46 AM ESTCeltics did look at JON last year in the playoffs. His physical condition made him a liability on the court except for the fact that he was 6 fouls to give. Unless they saw something medically that they thought they could correct, I was shocked that they signed him, even as insurance.
I could see Murphy back in green at the right price. All things being equal and Celts do get #18, it would not surprise me to see the core of this team back to try and defend the title. However, if #18 is reality, that would mean that BBD would have played very well, making it even more difficult to sign him. Murphy and Green as #6 and #7 along with Kristic, KG, PP, Allen and Rondo and Shaq along for the part time gig is a pretty good start to next year.
Also, count me as one who sees big potential in Bradley, and would like to see him get full summer league and training camp. I think he could be a dynamite 3rd combo guard that can defend really well.
Re: Troy Murphy
posted at 3/8/2011 9:12 AM ESTTroy Murphy has shown nothing. It is early, but there is very little that suggest he fits in with the roster.The point that mentions he is here for insurance makes the most sense. The only thing is based on what I have seen he supplies lousy insurance.

I am planning on doing a double century (STP One-day) in July. I have had consistent mileage throughout the "winter" of about 70-80 miles per week, but most of these rides are rides of 6-8 miles or less, 8-10 times per week, and maybe one day with 25-30 mile rides.
Due to various work/family commitments, it is easier for me to ramp up to get more "short" morning rides of 25-40 miles, 4-5 times per week, plus my normal commute home of 6-8 miles.
Can I train primarily with these base miles, or is it necessary to have multiple, long rides (century +) under my belt?
While I do plan on taking some longer weekend rides, I don't plan on those being my primary miles. Should I worry or change my plan?

So for instance, if I want to record my Ab Fab episodes I have onto another blank DVD, do I have to get another DVD player and hook it to the DVD recorder? Or is there another easier way to do it?

Richard Cizik out
Religion | Following an NPR interview, the controversial National Association of Evangelicals officer is forced to resign
Richard Cizik has a way with words. And mainstream media from The New York Times to National Public Radio eat them up. But when the longtime vice president for governmental affairs at the National Association of Evangelicals opened his mouth in an interview on NPR Dec. 2, his boss spit those words right back at him.
Cizik stepped down from his role at the NAE Dec. 11, ending a 28-year tenure that dramatically increased the organization's prominence but often left other evangelical leaders wincing in discomfort. A champion of global warming alarmism, Cizik often found himself out of step with the evangelical mainstream. On the radio program that would prove his downfall, he ventured further from that mainstream than ever before.
"I would willingly say that I believe in [same-sex] civil unions," he told NPR's Terry Gross on the popular program Fresh Air. "I don't officially support redefining marriage from its traditional definition, I don't think."
Leith Anderson, president of the NAE, found such comments decidedly stale, a gross departure from the bold stands for truth for which the organization is known. He promptly asked Cizik to resign.
In a letter explaining that decision to NAE board members, Anderson wrote that Cizik "made statements that did not appropriately represent the values and convictions of NAE and our constituents. Although he has subsequently expressed regret, apologized and affirmed our values there is a loss of trust in his credibility as a spokesperson among leaders and constituents."
For many evangelicals outside the NAE, that loss of trust took place years ago. Cizik's ardent support for so-called "creation care" led him to champion green political causes that other high-profile evangelical groups fiercely opposed. In March 2007, Focus on the Family founder James Dobson, Family Research Council President Tony Perkins, and two dozen other evangelical leaders called for Cizik's resignation. Anderson resisted back then, largely because the complaint stemmed from outside the circle of NAE constituents, a group consisting of some 45,000 churches.
This time around, complaints from NAE members matched those from outside the camp. Important constituents wanted Cizik out.
"If this had been the first time, they would have been more forgiving," said Michael Cromartie, vice president of the Ethics and Public Policy Center and longtime friend of Cizik. "But this was another in a long line of positions that had tested the leadership of the NAE."
Cromartie trusts that Cizik's apology is sincere: "He's been flirting with views that are progressive for some time now. And in a desire possibly to continue to impress the mainstream media that has become intrigued by him, he's gotten out ahead of what he believes. There's great social pressure when you go on certain programs to appear tolerant and liberal and empathetic to other views. That pressure is so great that in order to impress that constituency you say certain things that you later realize were not the views of the organization you represent. He was tempted and succumbed to the temptation and now would like to walk it backwards. I'm sure he regrets what he said."
Regret has rarely accompanied Cizik's past forays outside the evangelical mainstream. Several years ago, his Evangelical Climate Initiative, a document claiming scriptural authority behind calls for government caps on greenhouse gas emissions, landed him on the cover of The New York Times. And earlier this year, Time magazine named Cizik among its top 100 most influential people.
Such secular media outlets used Cizik's green positions to project a changing climate among evangelicals on the issue of global warming. In reality, Cizik represented a minority view. Cal Beisner, national spokesman for the Cornwall Alliance, a group dedicated to a balanced, biblical view on the environment among evangelicals and other religious conservatives, greeted Cizik's resignation with applause: "The lesson is clear: When we uncritically adopt the world's agendas as our own, as Rev. Cizik did with global warming, it's easy to see how confusion in one area can lead to others. Long before he expressed support for civil unions, Cizik had already begun calling man-made climate change one of the greatest moral issues of our day and pronouncing God's judgment on those who disagreed."
Cizik is the second major NAE leader to step down in recent years. The organization lost its former president Ted Haggard in 2006 after his secret trysts with a homosexual prostitute came to light.
Cromartie believes Cizik might have avoided his fate: "Rich should have gotten nervous when Al Gore came by to see him some years ago. When Al Gore wants to meet you, a light should go off that says 'I'm not being nuanced enough in my position.'"

The Kardashians
Kim Kardashian Tries to Reason With a Drunk Scott Disick (VIDEO)
Family dinners with the Kardashian-Jenners always lead to the most interesting of scenes. In this new clip from Keeping Up With the Kardashians, we see the reality TV family gather around the table with one member of the fam partaking a bit too much. Any guesses on who? We know. Competition's stiff.
For those in the audience who picked Scott Disick, congratulations! Kourtney's man was indeed the one who got sloshed at dinner, much to the chagrin of his baby mama and her sister, Kim.
"I'm fighting with Khloe and now Scott is starting to get a little sloppy," Kourt says in her confessional. "This is just what I don't need. I just want to go to bed, get on a plane, and get out of Miami."
There to help try and mop things up is sis Kim, who realizes Scott's making a mess.
"Maybe don't drink anymore so you guys can have a good night," she politely suggests. "Yeah, exactly," chimes in Kourt. "She wants to cuddle in bed and be normal," Kim adds as Scott makes bug eyes in her general direction.
See how Scott took the advice by watching the video above! Then head to the comments to tell us what you make of the clip.

The first batch of Sleeping Dogs review scores have cropped up online and the high scores suggest that Square Enix's open-world crime drama could be one of this year's surprise hits.
Both the Official Xbox Magazine (OXM) and the Official PlayStation Magazine (OPM) have rated Sleeping Dogs 9/10. "This is the game Saints Row has spent a decade desperate to be, a rollercoaster open-world adventure set in an environment that's fun to explore and doss about in, and packed to the brim with rousing missions, happy diversions and other amazing stuff," writes OPM's Ben Wilson.
The praise continues with OXM's review where they refer to "a gripping vision of Hong Kong which sports breakneck driving, a sharp, well-acted storyline and varied missions." The full reviews aren't online yet, but both editions of the magazines are available in the shops.
We'll have a full review of Sleeping Dogs up prior to its August 17 release date.

May 25, 2016
More than 1,300 physicians responded to the survey by Dr. Robert Brooks, the associate dean for health affairs at the Florida State University Medical School, and more than half of those doctors said they were cutting back.
Dr. Robert Brooks says, "The services we saw that were cut the most included deliveries, both vaginal and C-section deliveries of infants, as well as procedures such as surgeries and coverage of nursing homes and emergency rooms."
Brooks, who served as secretary of the state Health Department four years ago (1999-2001), says the number one reason why doctors are cutting back is the high cost of insurance.
Dr. Brooks' study was published in Monday's edition of The Journal of the American Medical Association.

Deliverables & Resources
UN Women: RURAL WOMEN LIGHT UP AFRICA
Organization(s) making commitmentUN Women, Barefoot College of India
Achievement of Commitmenta. Capacity building of grandmothers in Africa on solar technology: In six months� training in India, the women have learnt to use sophisticated tools to fabricate, repair and maintain solar systems. They have learnt how to fabricate charge controllers, inverters and fabricate solar lanterns only using colour code to identify electronic parts. Each of these women has already made lantern circuits, circuits for chargers and LED Lamp chargers.
b. Empower illiterate rural women to solar electrify their own villages in Africa
c. Solar electrify homes and communities in the African countries concerned
d. promote the use of sustainable energy
How this will be achievedIn brief, the commitment will be achieved through strong leadership and oversight role of UN Women, strong partnership with the Barefoot College of India, preparation of women before the training, training of women in India, procurement, distribution and monitoring of solar equipment and follow up visits and support to Barefoot solar engineers in their communities.
UN Women working in collaboration with relevant Ministries in the selected African countries and the Indian Technical and Economic Cooperation (ITEC), government of India identifies 26 women from 16 villages in Liberia, South Sudan, Tanzania and Uganda and trained the women in India in the installation and maintenance of solar panels and systems to electrify their own homes and villages.
By getting the communities to pay every month for the use of the solar units (thus reaching the very poorest of the poor who cannot afford to buy these systems even in installments), the financial commitment is assured for the purchase of replacement components and payment of the monthly salary of the woman solar engineer. This salary provides the incentive for the woman solar engineer to work and look after the units regularly.
|Selection and preparation of the women before they travel to India for the Training
|26 women coming from 16 villages from Liberia (8), South Sudan (9), Tanzania (6), and Uganda (2) trained in India in the installation and maintenance of solar panels and systems to electrify their own homes and villages

Fremantle is a vibrant port city located at the mouth of the Swan River in Western Australia. It is considered to be part of the Perth metropolitan area. Temperatures vary from an average high of 28 degrees in summer to an average high of 18 degrees in winter. The sea breeze known as the 'Fremantle Doctor' usually arrives by afternoon, providing relief from the summer heat.
Prior to white settlement, Fremantle was inhabited by the Noongar Indigenous People. In 1829, the area was first settled by the Swan River colonists. However, it was another 100 years before Fremantle was declared a city. It was named after Captain Charles Howe Fremantle, an English naval officer.
Perth is famed for its fishing and seafood. Fishing Boat Harbour is a popular tourist attraction. With the fishing industry having links to Italian communities, a ceremony known as the "Blessing of the Fleet" is held each year. Fremantle has a strong music culture and hosts annual festivals such as the West Coast Blues and Roots Festival and the Fremantle Winter Music Festival.
Fremantle is serviced by trains, buses and ferries.

I made half a recipe for the two of us and it was very good. I had to add water at the end as it was dry and needed something for the sauce. The meat was so tender it fell apart. Served with Baked Sweet potatoes, Lime Cayenne mayo, and crispy corn fritters.
This was very good. The rub is very fragrant and would make for good grilling rub. I braised this on top of the stove and not in the oven. Took the same amount of time and turned out very tender. I would use a bit more chipotle next time as we like really spicy food, but this would make for a good meal to make guests who are not accustomed to hot foods. Thanks Bev. Served this with fried potatoes and braised leeks in cream sauce.
I made these the other day and unexpected company showed up. What a HIT! I fixed a Tex-Mex style risotta with them and some crunchy French Bread. Everyone loved them! I ended up cooking them a little longer and the meat was so tender! Thank you Bev!

Long-Term Care
Frequently Asked Questions
22. Is long-term care insurance a good option for me? I've heard it's expensive.
Long-term care insurance pays for many types of long-term care. The exact coverage depends on the type of policy. Some policies cover only nursing homes. Others cover a variety of services.
The cost of long-term care insurance does go up for people who are older, have health problems, or want more benefits. However, it can be a good choice for younger, relatively healthy people at low risk of needing long-term care.

Attorney General Andrew M. Cuomo said the case is believed to be the first in the nation to attack so-called astroturfing, the practice of creating the illusion of spontaneous support for a product or cause. His office said company officials ordered Lifestyle Lift employees to write the reviews and to go after real customers who complained by attacking their legitimate message board posts or trying to get them removed.
"This company's attempt to generate business by duping consumers was cynical, manipulative, and illegal," Cuomo said in a prepared statement.
Lifestyle Lift, which markets cosmetic surgery at more than 40 U.S. locations, agreed to pay $300,000 in penalties and the cost of the investigation as well as to stop publishing the phony reviews. The company posted a "Code of Internet Conduct & Assurance" on its site promising to deliver only truthful information and to use only actual customers as examples.
A standalone site full of fake reviews, MyFaceLiftStory.com, is now clearly labeled as being published by the company and contains information about the procedures in place of the phony commentary. You can see some of the phony sites and reviews here.

Commissioners Looking at Funding Possibilities
MADISON - When the city of Madison asked the Madison County Board of Commissioners to partially fund an engineering study for the Madison Area Industrial Park, the answer was regretfully, "no." The budget didn't allow for the appropriation. Instead the commissioners initiated the idea of a revolving loan fund that would be for available for agencies throughout the county and administered by a board separate from the commissioners. In researching the concept, Commissioner Christian Ohl learned that federal funds may be available as well. Ohl says the fund would be used to loan money to county agencies for special projects such as the Industrial Park engineering study.

Jeff Hurd was named senior vice president and head of human resources at the New York-based company. Hurd, formerly AIG's chief administrative officer, has held numerous senior roles and previously served as head of asset management restructuring and interim president of AIG Global Real Estate, the memo states. He replaced Andrew Kaslow, the human resources chief who departed last fall.
AIG also hired Michael Cowan as vice president and chief administrative officer. Cowan is a former longtime executive at Merrill Lynch & Co. and most recently served as senior vice president of global corporate services at the Wall Street firm.
Hurd and Cowan, who will be based in New York, will report directly to CEO Robert Benmosche, who told employees in the memo that the organizational changes will "help increase our momentum and strengthen our organization."
The appointments come after last week's resignation of Anastasia Kelly, AIG's general counsel and vice chairman for legal, human resources and corporate affairs. Kelly left in connection with federal salary caps imposed on executives at companies that took government bailout funds. In addition, Suzanne Folsom, chief compliance and regulatory officer, also left the firm. AIG said last week it is looking for successors for the duo.
Nicholas Ashooh, senior vice president of communications, also has resigned, the memo said. He has been replaced by Christina Pretto, who currently is vice president of corporate media relations for AIG.
In the memo, Benmosche told employees to remain focused on "core priorities" including "repaying taxpayers, strengthening our business, and serving clients."

Justin Bieber
Male Justin Bieber Fan, 33, Spends $100,000 on Plastic Surgery to Look Like Star
This is beyond the usual crazy, even for a Justin Bieber fan.
The Huffington Post has before and after photos of 33-year-old Toby Sheldon, who reportedly spent almost $100,000 on five years' worth of plastic surgery to look like the 19-year-old pop star.
Toby reportedly had Botox and hair transplants, plus smile surgery. "It's Justin's smile that gives him his youthful look. So I had my upper lip lifted [and] my bottom lip plumped out," the musician told British magazine Closer.
A few reactions:
1. Can you imagine having $100K in disposable income like this?!
2. Wasn't there anyone in his life to stop him? Did plastic surgeons exploit his extreme fandom?
3. He doesn't even look like Justin! He was a good-looking guy before and should've stuck with that, maybe changing his hair to be like Justin's if he really wanted to copy him.
Check out the photos (the one shown here is of the actual Justin Bieber, not Toby) and some details from the Closer story. What's your reaction?

Very happy with this product. Golden is quality always.

Comments about Golden High Flow Acrylics:
I'm an experimenter; I only used the sample pack, which prompted me to order several colors in greater quantity. Can already tell the paints will be useful in many different applications. The color is rock solid, fluid yet not thin.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Nice addition to acrylics

great versatility when using acrylics. Fun to have transparent colors as well!
Great product
By Lightning Mom
from Priest River, ID
Really like Golden and recently had to let go of numerous bottles of paint due to relocating and unable to take products with me. So opted to go for larger bottles of several colors and ship them and got them from Blick. They had all the ones I wanted in the larger size. Very happy to have found them all. Always like dealing with Blick as great customer service and great inventory. This particular product can be used in my pens, markers, airbrush, and painting, whether watercolor or acrylic use.
Excellent all purpose acrylic

Knockout Accents!
By PONeill
from Tucson, AZ
These transparent acrylics are fantastic highlighters not only for my acrylic paintings but can be used on my colored pencil and pastel art works! They can be applied easily in an accent area (sunlight through the trees, night lights in a city, sunlight on the water etc.) by daubing with a cotton ball, soft cloth, fan brush, q-tip! Love it!
great paints!
By NancyL
from ny
amazing coverage for such a thin liquid thanks to the high pigment density. i have used these in conjunction with the fluid and heavy body acrylics, and they are all wonderful. I have used other brands but Golden remains my favorite.
Great for Markers & Brushes!
By ElizabethOSP
from Mountains of CA
Am using these in my Molotow and Montata markers, and also for brush work. SO GLAD I read happy reviews and tried them! These high flows work perfectly in the markers, and are brilliant with the brushes. I'm painting on rough, reclaimed wood most of the time, but I'm also using the high flows for monotypes and drawing. LOVE!!! ~Oh, and added happiness: Blick has a great price on these. :)

In 1970, Sen. Strom Thurmond hired Thomas Moss. A black South Carolinian and director of the Voter Education Project, which advocated black voter registration, Moss was the first black person hired by any member of Congress hailing from South Carolina.
Thurmond, however, isn't going down as racially progressive, supportive of civil rights or a friend to the colored. That's too easy.
More like an elder Klansman than an elder statesman, Thurmond -- who just passed away at age 100 -- worked hard to pause America at attack dogs, fire hoses and separate entrances, even attributing integration to Communism.
Actually, I don't recall Thurmond as anything less than what he was: the southern racist who, when he'd say "Negro" and it came out "niggra," made me feel like I needed a shower. You know, a stereotypical bigot so blatantly racist it almost made sense.
And he was. But it didn't.
Thurmond's hiring of Moss, who for 25 years parlayed the senator's clout to improve conditions in South Carolina's black communities, was a political preemptive strike.
See, Thurmond had just felt the pinch of supporting Gov. Albert Watson, a boisterous bigot who "stood up for hardcore rednecks." Watson lost, and Thurmond saw the colored section turning against him for his penchant for trying to defeat civil rights legislation -- once with a 24-hour, 18-minute filibuster against the 1957 civil rights bill.
So to keep the darkies happy at home, he had to show good faith. As long as he kept Moss performing grunt work, there was sure to be dancin' 'round the campfire.
Thurmond returned again and again to the Senate.
This is the thumbnail version of Strom Thurmond, the man whose work realigned white southern conservatism with racist Democrats. Of how this World War II veteran -- a Democrat, a "Dixiecrat" and then a Republican, foe of civil rights and hater of integration -- got away with it as America's longest-serving senator.
And this is why I'm glad he's dead. Reading, thinking and ultimately writing about Thurmond is like a root canal -- it's a painful but unavoidable extraction of infectious roots.
To affix time and place to their time and place in history, folks of that generation recall their whereabouts when Kennedy or King were shot. I did the same with Thurmond, making a mental note. As a TV newscaster ran through his obituary, I turned to catch a glimpse of Thurmond's Bitter Beer Face.
"Is Thurmond dead? He must be dead," I said. "Yes, thank God," my friend said, herself relieved.
Relishing Thurmond's death is a guilty pleasure. I can only compare it to the mental unraveling of a long-ago editor who'd shaped up to be an intentional adversary. He lived to test my character. He rejoiced at my failures, sabotaged my successes and stared in disbelief when I prevailed. I believed he was evil.
The day he slinked out the newsroom, weighted by the collapse of the infrastructure he'd devised for grinding me down, was the day I made another mental note.
It was historical. It was hysterical.
Relief and triumph returned when I read Thurmond's New York Times obit. I know, I know. It appears I've taken too personally the inevitable death of an old-ass bigot.
But consider the closeted (and not-so-) support of Thurmond's ideologies held aloft by his history-making political career. And then there's Sen. Trent Lott's tribute to Thurmond on his 100th birthday, which bears repeating: "(America) wouldn't have had all these problems over all these years" had Thurmond been elected president in 1948.
Scary. Scarier still is how close Thurmond came. Facing President Harry Truman in 1948, Thurmond, then still a Democrat, got 1.1 million votes and 38 electoral votes from a gaggle of southern states after southerners balked at Hubert Humphrey's plea for civil rights during the Democratic National Convention.
In 1981 and again in 1995, Thurmond was elected president of the Senate by his Republican colleagues, placing him third in line to the presidency behind VP and Speaker of the House. Scary. Just because it never happened doesn't mean it couldn't have.
History's a toothy road that'll rise from behind to bite us in the ass if we move too slowly outrunning it. I was raised not to judge a man's salvation. But it makes me feel good picturing Thurmond in Hell.
For now, I summon my sanctified imagination: Thurmond has cleared security. He's charging up his Miracle Ear for the long haul. He's throwing back a cold one with Satan at a whites-only bar. For eternity.

Immolate, that is some good looking stuff. I'm not sure what your motive was but since you put it that way I'm thinking this is a test, LOL...like I'm supposed to find the hidden picture.
Anyway, the only thing I noticed right off was that I see flags in the shadows but nothing in the positions on top of the towers. I suppose it's possible that they are so thin from my birds eye view that I wouldn't see them but since they are so fat in the shadow I'm thinking not. Far as the shadows go the only one that looks a little funny is the upper right tower's. Only reason is because the flag shadow just manages to hit perfectly on the top of the wall which seems almost too coincidental. I'm not likely to sit here and try to do the math so I leave that up to you. Again, I say the whole thing looks wonderful and I look forward to seeing updates.
I imagine you have to ask yourself if it's worth it to make things that real or not. An extra couple hours for each building's shadows seems like a lot of work. I'm thinking there must be some software out there that already does this for architects and whatnot. Might be better to get a second job with those "shadow hours" and buy it I know, labor of love.

I just took these fins on 11 dives in Bonaire and they performed wonderfully! I am a fan of the frog kick and these worked great. I also am an underwater photographer so these fins were perfect for tight maneuvers around the reef, hovering, turning and even backing up some. If you want to go fast, you get a lot of power for not a ton of effort with the straight kick. I snorkeled a couple of times and these fins did well on the surface too.

I love these straps and dont know why I didnt buy them sooner. They make putting my fins on and taking them off easy. They apply just the right amount of pressure around my ankles. They were a little difficult to install on my Oceanic Viper fins but with a little elbow grease they are secure. I would definitely recommend these.

Low industrial growth a wake up call for policy makers: SBI chief
Mumbai: State Bank of India chairman Pratip Chaudhuri on Wednesday said the continued environment of gloom as reflected in the index of industrial production data is a wake up call for policy makers to take urgent corrective steps.
This (the slowdown in growth) is very worrisome ... I think the industrial sector really needs attention and the IIP growth at 2 per cent for April, (while) we have been expressing satisfaction that GDP growth is at 5 per cent, Chaudhuri said.
On poor industrial growth in April, Chaudhuri said: The industry component at 2 per cent is a great matter of worry. Everybody, the policy makers, as also people in the field need to give it

I had the privilege of staying at The Thomas Lamboll House B&B in Charleston, SC in December 2013. The historic home is lovely in all respects, and the proprietor is a gracious hostess. Marie Read provided a wealth of recommendations about places to eat and things to do. She also is knowledgeable about local history and lore. With a location that is perfect for treks throughout the historic district and a third-floor suite of rooms that offered grand views of the city, the Thomas Lamboll House B&B provides charm and class at a reasonable price.

A lovely home with a large bedroom with fireplace. A little colder than expected in the room. The breakfast was adequate but short of its advertisement. Host was very accommodating. Parking easy. Close access to the downtown. We walked almost everywhere.

My family enjoyed the hospitality of Mr. and Mrs. Read in their lovely 18th century home. Our hosts were so gracious and made us feel most welcome in their home. We had a beautiful room on the 3rd floor with a piazza facing the Charleston harbor. Each night we sat outside enjoying a beautiful breeze. The room was immaculate and decorated beautifully. Mrs. Read prepared a lovely breakfast each morning in her elegant dining room on beautiful china and silver. We can't say enough about how nice our stay was with the Reads and will stay with them again if we find ourselves back in Charleston.

We stayed at the Thomas Lamboll House on Memorial Day Weekend 2012 and had a wonderful time in Charleston! It's location was perfect for a beautiful walk on the Battery or a nice walk to downtown shops and restaurants. I really got a feeling of what Charleston was all about by staying here. A large room with a piazza made me feel like I lived here. Truely the best way to stay in Charleston. Thank you to the Read's!

We had a wonderful visit, the Innkeepers were friendly and helpful, gave us a tour of the house and some interesting history facts about it. We had a lovely breakfast and were treated very graciously! Our room was beautiful, neat and clean however; we do understand that these older homes have their problems, but the plumbing needs attention, the toilet did not flush well and was not pleasant to deal with!

The house was built in 1735. I found it in good condition for a house of that age. We enjoyed our visit and the hosts of the home.

After reviewing a lot of B&B's, I was very impressed with the picture of Lamboll House on their website. It looked just like a place I would want to stay. I contacted Marie and she was absolutely wonderful so I decided to pick it and I'm glad I did. We had a marvelous stay....each morning and evening we sat roof top, among the birds and squirrels, where we could overlook just about all of Charleston. The house is near the Battery, easy walk to it...and convenient to everything in the historic district...the market, the restaurants, the historic homes, the rivers....also free parking. Marie and her husband Emerson were perfect hosts...knowing when to greet us and when to let us have our privacy. The continental breakfast was a good start to each morning..., choice of cereals, hot breads, fruit, and wonderful hot coffee served in very fine china in a antibellum dining room...lots of atmosphere surrounding you as you enjoy your morning breakfast. You'll feel like royalty at Lamboll House. For those seeking a relaxing experience and those who enjoy antiques and history, Lamboll House is great. If you are not able to walk a lot or go up and down stairs you should pick another location. We are all in our 60's and were able to do the stairways and walking just fine but for the faint of heart, it might be more difficult. For those who chose to stay here, please know your manners and realities of staying in a B&B. Owners open their houses to you and offer lots of hospitality so it's up to you to respect their belongings....B&B's don't have bellhops, spas and weight rooms nor conference facilities and computer hookups. The whole idea in going to a B&B is to step back in time, enjoy your stay, be treated like a guest and relax.

If one seeks a very private historic home that captures the charm of antebellum Charleston, SC, the Thomas Lamboll House has something unique to offer. We planned our visit (three months in advance) with another couple to celebrate our anniversaries while enjoying the history and grace of the region. This house and the innkeepers, Mr. and Mrs. Emerson Reid, offered just two private rooms in a fabulous location "South of Broad" in a very gracious old historic home. Rooms on the third floor were clean, comfortable and spacious. Breakfast offerings were continental -- coffee, home-made biscuits and breads, cereal and fruits -- just enough to get us started on our tours. Our hosts were gracious and accommodating, providing interesting information about the history of the peninsula and the area. One morning, we were able to arrange a private carriage ride in the historic district (through Palmetto Carriage Works) that originated and ended at the Thomas Lamboll House. This is a truly unique and delightful way to tour the city. One of the high-points of our stay was finding the grave sites of Thomas Lamboll (builder of the house at 19 King Street) and his family in the old Circular Congregational Churchyard, which the Reids had been seeking for some time. For art, architecture and history devotees, staying in this location with these wonderful Charlestonians is a delight rarely encountered.

Whilst at SLA 2011 (noticing a theme with how the recent blog entries are beginning?!) I gradually became more confident at introducing myself, and often ended a conversation by enquiring if the other party was on Twitter or had a blog – cue business card swap. One problem I quickly realised, and was accentuated by talking to fellow ECCAs, was that my Twitter and blog name didn't make any sense. It was just a string of letters and numbers that once formed the first part of my university email address. When I set it up, I was intending to primarily to follow, not tweet so presumed that the name did not matter. I quickly realised I would get a lot more out of Twitter if I contributed, and waded in without thinking about my online identity. The name problem spread when I started my blog – I felt that the most important factor was keep the same name to identify a clear link between my Twitter and blog. Upon my return from Philadelphia I have been riding a wave of library excitement, and decided to finally get round to fixing the situation. Below, I have outlined the process I went through, and some tips for changing/creating an online name.
1. Actually think of a new name. This was the crux of the problem. When I first joined Twitter etc, I did not give my name any thought. I just used the first thing that popped into my head. Thats a bad idea, and the reason why I ended up as shw34. To arrive at my new name, LibWig (you can decide if it is any better!), I did the following…
- Ignored online name generators – they are of little use, producing generic strings of letters and numbers, some not too dissimilar to what I had before.
- Get a pen and paper! Write down all the words you think emphasise what you want to say about yourself. For me, this was primarily stuff to do with libraries, mixed in with my name, such as library, libraries, 2.0, information, knowledge, biblio etc.
- Cross out words that you do not like the sound of. You'll be saying your name to potential co-workers and employers, you have to like how it sounds. It also needs to roll off the tongue easily, else you will just confuse conversations!
- Take the first end end parts of names, and string them together in as many ways as possible. Hopefully they should produce something of use.
- Google these names – many that made my shortlist were quickly ruled out when they were either taken on Twitter already, or on another blogging platform with a presence far greater than mine. I wanted to avoid confusion with these other people, so avoided the names.
- Contemplate just using your full name! Unfortunately, it seems I have quite a popular name on social networking sites, so all variations of my name that I liked were taken. I contemplated using underscores and numbers, but as the whole point of my name revision was to make it simpler to say and type, I wanted to avoid these if possible.
2. Actually change your Twitter name.
- Big tip for when you do this, update your bio just before you change the username, as your old name and bio will exist concurrently for a short amount of time. If you can explain in your old bio that you are changing your name, it will help your followers if they come across your old twitter.
- Put out a few tweets including your old name and your new name in the same tweet to help people identify who you were, and who you are now.
- Consider reserving your old Twitter username to prevent it being taken by someone else and associating themselves with you.
3. Consider your 'new look', but don't change it too quickly.
- I thought about altering my Twitter picture at the same time as my name, and creating a whole new 'look'. I decided against this when I thought about how I read my tweets. I keep an eye out for certain people's conversations, and I do this primarily not by looking for their name in the text, but by scanning my feed for their picture. Keeping my eggs will hopefully help people identify that I'm the same person as shw34. Plus, I do quite like my eggs. They are a good metaphor for a lot things. Maybe over time, when people have become used to the new name, then the eggs might be upgraded to a picture of yours truly.
4. Update your blog name, if you want it to match. Remember, if you have done your checks properly as per point 1, a domain should be free to move your blog to, or create from scratch. I'm on wordpress.com, which made it easy to migrate my content across. I'm sure there are plenty of guides out there for other blogging platforms too.
- First, from within wordpress, I'd recommend downloading an XML file of your blog content, just in case the unthinkable happens and all your hard work vanishes. To do so, click on 'Tools' in the left panel, select 'Export' and save your file. You can also use this to upload to other blogging platforms I think, should you wish to change provider.
- When changing your username, you have several options. For a quick overview, take a look at the WordPress.com video. I chose to move my content to my new address – libwig.wordpress.com – and create a new, blank blog in the old address. This meant I could create a page explaining to people that I have moved, and where they can find me. Bear in mind, if you choose to discard the old usename, you cannot recover it, ever. It might therefore be better to create a blank site with the old address, and then just make it private just in case you change your mind. On the plus side, no one else will be able to use that name, so don't worry about another blog making use of your old site traffic.
5. Update your links
- All links to your old site will become dead. You can pay for a wordpress.com upgrade of $12 to map your new domain and automatically forward any users across. I haven't used this, instead deciding to work my way back through all links to my site in the site stats, contacting other sites and blogs to inform them that due to my change in URL, their link is dead and invite them to update it. Remember to apologise for the inconvenience though! You'll also have to publicize your change in address, but creating a blank site explaining that you have moved will help.
- Also remember to update your blog link in your Twitter address or anywhere else that you have it!
- Update any business cards you have to reflect the new address!
6. Pick your timing for when you alter your name etc.
- I have chosen to update my name, somewhat foolishly, after handing out lots of business cards at a conference with my old name and blog address on. In an ideal world, I would have altered this prior to the conference, however as explained above, I did not see it as an issue back then. I've decided to do it this weekend prior to the New Professionals Conference in the hope that anyone who hears me speak will then associate me with my new name.
- My blog is still in relative infancy too. Were I to wait until it had matured, updating links and contacting other sites would have been a lot more laborious. I think I would have opted for the $12 wordpress.com redirect if that were the case! If you are considering a change, maybe do it sooner rather than later, just incase you hit the big time and it becomes too difficult to alter.

Alabama-SEMO Boxscore
Alabama Season Stats (2 Games)
TUSCALOOSA, Ala.- Alabama suffered its first loss of the 2009 season, falling 8-3 to Southeast Missouri State on Saturday afternoon at Sewell-Thomas Stadium. The Redhawks out-hit the Crimson Tide 14-7 in the game and scored multiple runs three times.
Tyrell Cummings and Trenton Moses had three hits apiece to lead the offense, while Jim Klocke added two hits and two RBI. Left-hand pitcher James Leigh gave the Redhawks a 114-pitch effort out of the bullpen to help his team even the series.
"They beat us in every phase of the game," Alabama head coach Jim Wells said. "The game started off poorly. They kept extending the lead. We hit some balls hard late in the game, but it was too little too late. There wasn't one phase of the game they were not better than us today."
Southeast Missouri State (1-1) scored two runs in the first inning off senior left-hander Miers Quigley. The Redhawks plated the two runs on four hits and were aided by an Alabama error. Matt Wagner and Trenton Moses each drove in a run in the inning for the Redhawks.
The Redhawks chased Quigley in the second inning after loading the bases with one out. Sophomore right-hander Nathan Kilcrease retired the next two hitters as SEMO left the bases loaded for the second straight inning. Quigley allowed two runs and five hits in 1 1/3 innings with one walk and two strikeouts.
The Alabama offense seemed to be sparked by Kilcrease's performance on the mound and scored two runs in the bottom of the second inning to tie the game at 2-2. Brandon May opened the inning with a single to left and moved to second on Clay Jones' fly ball to center field. May then moved to third on a wild pitch and Matthes walked to put runners on the corners with one out. Kyle Moore reached on an error by the right fielder Cummings as May scored from third. Matthes and Moore then executed a double steal, before Matthes came in on a balk.
Southeast Missouri State starter Todd Strahlendorf left the game with an injury with two outs in the second inning before Leigh was summoned from the bench. He was called with a balk chase Matthes in from third with the tying run.
The Redhawks took the lead for good on Jim Klocke's two-out, two-run single in the third inning to make it 4-2.
Kilcrease (0-1), the second of six UA pitchers, allowed two runs and two hits in 3 2/3 innings and struck out six batters.
Leigh (1-0) held the Tide to one run and six hits in 7 2/3 innings of relief for the win. He walked one and fanned seven batters.
Southeast Missouri State scored three more runs in the sixth inning off Austin Graham to take a 7-2 lead. The Redhawks had four straight hits in the inning, including RBI singles by Wagner and Moses.
Jones stroked his first career home run to lead off the bottom of the seventh inning as the Tide closed the gap to 7-3. Jones, who went 2-for-4 with a solo home run in the game, was the only UA player with two hits in the loss.
The two teams will conclude the three-game series on Sunday, Feb. 22, at 2:05 p.m. (CST). Freshman left-hander Adam Morgan will make his first career start for the Tide, while Southeast Missouri State will counter with junior Greg Hendrix, who pitched the last two seasons at Shelton State Community College in Tuscaloosa. Tickets are available on www.RollTide.com or at the Sewell-Thomas Stadium box office, beginning two hours prior to first pitch.
Game Notes: *Alabama senior right-hander Casey Kebodeaux gave the Tide a solid outing out of the pen on Saturday. He retired eight of the 10 batters he faced and stranded two inherited runners in the seventh inning. He was charged with one unearned run and one hit in 2 2/3 innings with three strikeouts.
*Alabama used six pitchers in Saturday's loss, including Miers Quigley, Nathan Kilcrease, Austin Graham, Austin Evans, Casey Kebodeaux and Adam Scott.
*Senior right fielder Kent Matthes reached base three times and stole a career-high three bases on Saturday.
*Alabama leads the all-time series with Southeast Missouri State, 7-3, but has its six-game series winning streak snapped with Saturday's loss.

Is rjava the only way to connect R to Java? I am asking because there is a disclaimer at the end of the web page:
This interface uses Java reflection API to find the correct method so it is much slower and may not be right (works for simple examples but may not for more complex ones). For now its use is discouraged in programs as it may change in the future.
This is slightly concerning. How do you address this issue? I know that Rweka has a self-contained interface, so I may look into that package, but maybe many R users have already gone through the pains.

Miley Cyrus
Miley Cyrus Mocks Hannah Montana in New Remix
Miley Cyrus's latest album Bangerz is less than a week old and already she's working on new music. The 20-year-old star twerked on over to add her signature style to French Montana's remix of his single "Ain't Worried About Nothin." There, she continues to bang the world's eardrums one mad rhyme at a time.
So what's she rap about? Having no worries, dealing with thick girls, and wearing vintage Versace — aka an average Tuesday for Miley Cyrus.
"I got three thick girls in my video," she says. (Quick note of clarification: We're about 99 percent sure Miley means "thick" and not fellow VMAs performer Robin "Thicke," though that dude has enough girls in his videos, we're sure he wouldn't mind sharing.)
Listen to the whole NSFW track of "Ain't Worried About Nothin" here.
As French, who collaborated with Miley on Bangerz, repeats the lyric "I ain't worried about nothin," Miley pokes fun at her former Disney image: "Oh s—t there goes Hannah Montana. Acting like a little Southern girl, now I'm twerking like I grew up in Atlanta."
On a scale of zero to totally bangerz, we'd have to give "Ain't Worried About Nothin'" a minus 23. It's about as catchy as that single but features none of Miley's "Wrecking Ball" high notes. Not that she seems to mind. Remember, she ain't worried about nothin. Nothin.
Listen to the whole NSFW track below, and here's something to worry about: The song is bound to get stuck in your head.

This is really old, but it is AWESOME. If you ask my very humble opinion.
(It's one of my homages to Joost Elffers & Saxton Freyman.)
Things I learned this week:
1. The consensus, among a group of midwesterners and southerners, is that I have a Jersey accent! I thought I talked the same as everyone else here. I've been trying to compare my dialect to a "normal" accent--or at least a Chicago-area-midwestern accent--and all I can figure is that everyone else here talks a bit like a bunch of valley girls.
2. This photoblog looked horrible in IE 6. When I'd previously checked the compatibility on a Windows computer, everything seemed fine... but apparently that computer was running Internet Explorer 7, and there's actually a difference between IE 6 and IE 7. I think I've added some hacks to the layout, so it should read semi-normally now, but please please please let me know if anything looks funky.
2a. This photoblog looks horrible on a really bright monitor.
Can you see 11 different shades of gray?
How 'bout 11 different shades of dark gray?...
...and 11 shades of light gray?
If one end of the spectrum or another is blending together for you (meaning, if you can make out fewer than 11 different shades of gray in each bar--especially the light grays, 'cos I know the dark grays kind of blend into my whole page background), I'd suggest looking into recalibrating your monitor. It takes about 5 minutes, and it will probably make your overall internet experience much more pleasurable.
3. About 40% of people don't have a psoas minor, and about 14% don't have a palmaris longus.
Just throwin' it out there.

He choked the victim until she was unconscious and then took her purse and cell phone, according to a police statement.
A witness later identified Dugan.
Police went to Dugan's home where the victim made positive identification.
During Dugan's arrest, two prescription bottles with the victim's name on them, a necklace, cell phone and other items taken during the crime were found, police said.

States consider drug tests for welfare recipients
CHARLESTON, W.Va. Want government assistance? Just say no to drugs.
Lawmakers in at least eight states want recipients of food stamps, unemployment benefits or welfare to submit to random drug testing.
The effort comes as more Americans turn to these safety nets to ride out the recession. Poverty and civil liberties advocates fear the strategy could backfire, discouraging some people from seeking financial aid and making already desperate situations worse.
Those in favor of the drug tests say they are motivated out of a concern for their constituents' health and ability to put themselves on more solid financial footing once the economy rebounds. But proponents concede they also want to send a message: you don't get something for nothing.
"Nobody's being forced into these assistance programs," said Craig Blair, a Republican in the West Virginia Legislature who has created a Web site – notwithmytaxdollars.com – that bears a bobble-headed likeness of himself advocating this position. "If so many jobs require random drug tests these days, why not these benefits?"
Blair is proposing the most comprehensive measure in the country, as it would apply to anyone applying for food stamps, unemployment compensation or the federal programs usually known as "welfare": Temporary Assistance for Needy Families and Women, Infants and Children.
Lawmakers in other states are offering similar, but more modest proposals.
On Wednesday, the Kansas House of Representatives approved a measure mandating drug testing for the 14,000 or so people getting cash assistance from the state, which now goes before the state senate. In February, the Oklahoma Senate unanimously passed a measure that would require drug testing as a condition of receiving TANF benefits, and similar bills have been introduced in Missouri and Hawaii. A Florida senator has proposed a bill linking unemployment compensation to drug testing, and a member of Minnesota's House of Representatives has a bill requiring drug tests of people who get public assistance under a state program there.
A January attempt in the Arizona Senate to establish such a law failed.
In the past, such efforts have been stymied by legal and cost concerns, said Christine Nelson, a program manager with the National Conference of State Legislatures. But states' bigger fiscal crises, and the surging demand for public assistance, could change that.
"It's an example of where you could cut costs at the expense of a segment of society that's least able to defend themselves," said Frank Crabtree, executive director of the West Virginia chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union.
Drug testing is not the only restriction envisioned for people receiving public assistance: a bill in the Tennessee Legislature would cap lottery winnings for recipients at $600.
There seems to be no coordinated move around the country to push these bills, and similar proposals have arisen periodically since federal welfare reform in the 1990s. But the appearance of a cluster of such proposals in the midst of the recession shows lawmakers are newly engaged about who is getting public assistance.
Particularly troubling to some policy analysts is the drive to drug test people collecting unemployment insurance, whose numbers nationwide now exceed 5.4 million, the highest total on records dating back to 1967.
"It doesn't seem like the kind of thing to bring up during a recession," said Ron Haskins, a senior fellow at the Brookings Institution. "People who are unemployed, who have lost their job, that's a sympathetic group. Americans are tuned into that, because they're worried they'll be next."
Indeed, these proposals are coming at a time when more Americans find themselves in need of public assistance.
Although the number of TANF recipients has stayed relatively stable at 3.8 million in the last year, claims for unemployment benefits and food stamps have soared.
