Update: Kansas duck hunter drowns in icy lake
A northeast Kansas sheriff says a hunter who drowned while trying to retrieve a duck at an icy lake was a member of the military.
Authorities initially believed the victim and a fellow serviceman fell into Milford Lake on Tuesday morning after their boat capsized.
But KJCK-AM reports Geary County Sheriff Tony Wolf later said the victim went out alone on a makeshift boat to retrieve a duck shot by his hunting partner from shore. Wolf says the victim stepped onto an ice sheet when the boat began taking on water, then fell through the ice.
A search for the body was suspended Tuesday.
The victim's name has not been released, and it's not clear if the two men were stationed at the nearby Fort Riley Army post.

Kompany limped out of last week's FA Cup fourth-round win at Stoke with a calf strain and missed the champions' goalless draw at QPR in the Barclays Premier League on Tuesday.
The Belgium centre-back will definitely miss Sunday's clash with Liverpool and next week's trip to Southampton and Mancini already seems to have ruled him out of the FA Cup fifth-round tie with Leeds on February 17. That would make the home game against Chelsea on February 24 the most likely comeback date.
Mancini said: "Vinny is out. I hope he can recover after the FA Cup."
City were short on central defensive options at QPR with Kolo Toure at the African Nations Cup and Matija Nastasic only able to make the bench due to a knee problem.
Midfielder Javi Garcia filled in at the back but Mancini is hopeful Nastasic will be fit to start against Liverpool at the Etihad Stadium alongside Joleon Lescott.

|Drew Estate Cigars
The ultimate coffee infusion by Drew Estate.
Drew Estate Tabak Especial is a delicious infusion of Nicaragua's finest coffee beans and aged, Esteli-grown long-fillers. This infusion results in a rich tobacco core layered by savory notes of espresso and milk chocolate, finished by a sweet, velvety aftertaste. So how do you make a masterpiece blend even better? You create some special edition, highly-sought-after versions of the famed cigar.
The Cafe con Leche is a special, limited production size that employs two premium wrappers to generate a wealth of exquisitely satisfying nuances and aromas. Both the foot and head of the cigar are cloaked with a dark Connecticut Broadleaf maduro, while the center of the cigar utilizes a silky shade-grown Connecticut leaf. Complexity is an understatement, as this cigar unloads a bold series of rich and creamy sensations throughout the slow burn.
Love Love Love --- My Tabak Especial - Cafe Con Leche!!! I now have my friends loving them also. Sweet beginning & good pull with a great aroma!
Tried the "Red Eye" and the "Balada" and they were good. Nothing to get excited about, but nothing wrong with them. The Tabak con Leche though..... one of the best cigars you'll ever find. If you like the Java line you'll fall in love with this. It is simply put, perfection.
It is December 26th, sitting on my back porch enjoying my Irish coffee and a cigar to start the day. I couldn't have chosen a finer cigar to pair with. Started off slightly sweet, developed into a creamy smoothness that complements the coffee perfectly. Wonderful aroma, never a bite to it all the way to the nub. Got this in the recent Drew Estate upgrade when I bought my box of Dirt Torpedoes. Couldn't think of a finer cigar in the morning.
ATTENTION!!! Cigars International is "The bomb" for APO members. DONT BUY from others. They can take over a month to deliver. Ships PARCEL POST versus USPS Priority like CI. Now for the review of this cigar - The tip is a little too sweet from the beginning, but what a great cigar all the way through. The draw is smooth and creamy with hints of coffee. The dual wrapper plays tricks on you making you look at the cigar and think you puffing on two. This is one of if not my favorite cigar! Everyone needs to know your company is the best if they want the product delivered quickly. My average has been 8-10 days shipping to an APO in Japan. Great Job Drew Estates and CI!
Absolutely the best cigar with a cup of joe in the early AM. Personally my favorite of all Drew Estates lines including the overpriced ones, a must try for all.
I don't usually like flavored sticks, but these are fantastic with a good strong cup of coffee, or on their own.
I love this cigar, being a nubbie I have spent a lot of money trying many samplers, I have landed on Drew Estate cigars. After getting a Tabac Especial in one of my samplers I purchesded a box right away. I would highly recommend.
Tried these in a sampler, then ordered a box! Smooth, smooth, smooth!
Great cigars!
I had a Cafe Con Leche hanging around in my humidor for months after ordering an infused sampler. Just never got around to trying this one. I think the two-toned wrapper was making me think it was probably just a gimmick cigar. Smoked it and immediately ordered a box. There are not enough adjectives to praise this smoke! WOW, just WOW.
A thoroughly enjoyable smoke. Tasteful all the way to the end. Will definitely purchase again.
This has quickly become one of my new favorite cigars. From start to finish you will enjoy a smooth cigar with a well balanced mix of coffee, chocolate, and spice. If you smoke it all the way to the end you will get to experience a stronger coffee sensation which keeps me smoking this cigar for as long as I can keep my fingers on it.
Love Cafe con Lechi literally one of the best smokes ive had when it comes to flavored smokes. This cigar is perfect in the morning with a nice cup of coffee on a cool day. Love em!!
Absolutely amazing, for the price you couldn't have gotten a single thing better. I took it to my friends and they were all amazed, thank you CI for my favorite Drew estate cigar ever and for a good price too.
I'm not a big fan of infused, but this is a real delight. As far as coffee/chocolate infused cigars this would have to be my personal favorite. No matter when I travel I ensure I have a few in my herf. It's perfect to pair with dessert or to enjoy with a cup of coffee in the morning.
Great smoke from start to finish. Sweet chocolate and coffee taste throughout. Good draw on each puff. Will buy again.
I thought the Java Mint was awesome until I tried this cigar. This one is f--kin awesome period....
Wow, what a great smoke. The red eye is so far my favorite cigar ever, and I am not a fan of infused cigars normally. The cafe con leche is also great, milder but tasteful. The red eye is more flavorful, great taste of coffee throughout the smoke, fantastic to the nub. A must for any coffee and cigar lover.
Theses are some of the best smokes. Its to bad they are a limited edition (if that is the real case), I believe they would do just fine as a permenant item in the infusion garrison.
Without a doubt, Drew Estate's magical touch has made the Red Eye, the finest flavored or infused cigar, in the world! I smoked my last one, last night, & already I am experiencing withdrawal. The bold flavors of chocolate, expresso & caramel coat the palate & excite the senses. If you have never appreciated a flavored cigar, try this one & you will know why the madmen at Drew Estates know exactly what they are doing. Now to figure out how I can get my hands on a 10 pack of my absolute favorite infused vitola.
The best, gave one to a friend and he commented the best he's ever smoked. Have a tendency to try something else, but always go back to this one. Would be nice to have a special on them sometime. This is a great smoke, thanks for keeping them on hand.
This is a smooth laid back relaxing smoke. Yes, it does have to do with the coffee infusement. The association with coffee combined with a good smoke on its own enhances the subtly relaxing effect. I like these on a lazy puttering around time of day.
By far, the single best cigar experience of my life to date. I'm still rather new to flavored cigars, but good god this one is delicious. Between the sweetened cap and the two wrappers, this cigar creates a smooth, even flavored smoke from start to finish. It is very sweet at the beginning but evens with highlights of sweet cream, caramel and coffee. Simply amazing! There will definitely be a box of these in my next order.
Had the Cafe Con Leche (Negro) and it was fantastic. Similar to the CI Legends Copper Label (also a Drew Estate blend) only this one is stronger and more "tobacco-ish". Very good cigar, going to buy more of them. Got one of these and a "Red Eye" in a sampler package. Will be trying the Red Eye soon.
I ordered a sampler pack recently and this cigar was definately the best of the bunch. I actually got online to order a 5 pack right now. This cigar is delicious
OMG I Love Love Love Love this cigar!!!! My Fiance Loves it too, it is now his FAVORITE cigar. ok drew estate i see you.
I adore this cigar but, for me, I can do without the sweetened cap. I wrap the tip with tape to avoid that. Great smoke!
Holy Crap!!! After a long deployment in Mosul, Iraq, my buddy asked me to try this cigar. It was the "Cafe con Leche". I have to say, after a year long deployment in Iraq, this little piece of heaven made it all worth it. Great, Great cigar. I will definitely be buying a bunch of these.
Been a big fan of Drew Estates ever since my first puff on a Kuba Kuba. I must say that the Cafe con Leche has solidified my love for this company even more! You get that same sweetness that you do from other Drew Estates infused cigars, although it's a little more subtle. Then there's a spicy, peppery taste and all of a sudden the back note of coffee comes into play. A very enjoyable smoking experience! Good work guys!
I cant give much more praise than the previous posts, will just say if you loved java, the con leche is your new mistress, wow .. excellent excellent cigar .. try it !
Last night my neighbor and I tried for the first time the Tabak Especial Cafe Con Leche, let me say we were both floored by its creamy, sugary flavor!! Definitely the perfect after dinner stick to enjoy. My favorite in the Drew Estate (Acid) collection has been the Kuba Kuba Maduro, but now I have found my new favorite! It burned smooth and even, and filled my lounge with a sweet smelling wafe. And now today I purchased 26 more sticks to enjoy. Once again thank you Drew Estate...
Can you say TASTY! I'm a first time smoker and what a way to start. I ordered the flavored mix and within that mix stood the Cafe Con Leche. As I worked my through, it kept moving it's way to the back of my humi like a panther positioning itself to pounce and when it did, I could not get enough. I finally gave in to the heat at my finger tips. It smoked so good, I wanted to smack my momma. I'm adding these ladies to my quarterly budget.
Hey Gang,just get the Drew Estate Red Eye,you won't regret it.There's a slight hint of coffee but the high content of well-aged Nic tobacco,(esp. the ligero), makes this a special treat for traditionalists,(like myself), as well as fans of infused cigars.To top it all off,when I got to the last 1-2 inches I tasted a flavor similar to Liga Privada #9-YOWZA!!IMO-Construction-100,Flavor-96,Aroma-100,Burn-razor sharp and very slow,Draw-excellent,Burn time-about 90 mn.Oh yeah,and the shaggy foot makes this real fun to light.I hope everyone enjoys this blend as much and more than I do.Jonathan Drew was born to make cigars.Thanks CI!
Thanks to my buddy Vince who made me buy a Tabak Speciale red eye. I am an avid smoker who really don't love 'flavored smokes' but this smoke has such a great flavor and not overweming at all with an awesome burn. Whether its with a coffee in the am or a good Cognac in the eve this smoke is up there with the best. Ordering my 2nd box.
My friend and I like to enjoy a cigar once or twice a week when we're out. Sampling new ones at these times has become a normal practice. First he brought the 1992 which was just an awesome cigar. My personal favorite was the Java. then he brought this one. amazing cigar. very much a sweet, coacoa flavor but that's what I enjoy. The difference in the wrappers really shows you the effect the wrapper has on the flavor of the cigars. It's a unique experience with three distinct flavors as you progress and absolutely the best cigar we've sampled so far. I personally would love to find one that's a full maduro though. I'd like to have that rich flavor you get at the beginning and end through the whole cigar. But this cigar is a definite must for anybody.
By far the asboslute best cigar I have ever had! While the price is what you'd expect from any premium Drew Estate stick, it has a great draw of creamy coffee flavor from beginning to end. These milds draw smooth and finish just as good as they start. I am a huge fan and I will be saving up for my box.
The Drew Estate Tabak con Leche, beautiful cigar. I love the idea of this stick, but not flavored cigars, however I love coffee so I gave it a try. I found the cigar from first puff to last, too sweet, like candy. I could not pick up on the coffee. I'm not saying this is a bad cigar, just not my type. If your a fan of mellow sweet sticks, be my guest.
Thank You CI for the best cigar I have ever had! A friend of mine give me 1 of the Tabak Especials and I was hooked. I am a Combat Firefighter in Iraq and deal with alot stress from time to time. It is an awsome experience to sit back at the end of the day to enjoy a fine cigar like these and wind down. Kinda makes you feel at home. And that means alot over here. Thank You for shipping to an APO.......Alot of companys don't...Thank You..
Absolutly unbelieveable,great smoke,great flavor,big billowing clouds of smoke AND NO COMPLAINING FROM THE WIFE THAT THEY STINK. a REALLY GOOD SMOKE!!!
Just not my thing - and I love coffee and love cigars! I bought a box (and definitely did not steal them). Gave them a little time in the humi, and have tried 3 so far. Nothing wrong with them. Well made etc, etc, but I guess they tasted more sweet than coffee. I was looking for a coffee taste, but really its just a sweet taste. Not my style I guess, if you like sweet cigars these should be fine. I like Padron anniversaries, and from drew estate the liga privada. Java's have more coffee flavor!
Would it be too much to ask for a sampler with acouple of these in it?
The Drew Estate Tabak Especial Ltd was a BIG surprise! An infused cigar has to really impress me to like it, and this one was very complex. Great with a dark beer or a coffee. Lots of mocha and cedar flavor, big pillowing plumes of smoke.
Absolutely nothing like this cigar... I look at the other supposed cigars I used to love, now I can't even think about smoking one of them. Drew Estates has a winner here, boxes will be flying off the shelves... and if they don't good, I'll take all the leftovers.
I LOVE THESE!!!!! Really, if you like flavored cigars, you will really like these. I have found my new favorite!
I don't get impressed very often by a cigar (although I enjoy a good smoke) but this cigar blew me away!! The coffee taste from beginning to end was unbeileveable!!! I even had my wife take a taste and she was impressed!! Super Job Drew Estate!!!!!
A great smoke for a change of pace. If you like the Natural line such as ROOT and DIRT, you will LOVE these! Great chocolate burst at the start followed by notes of creamy goodness and a sweet ending! Great blend!!
This is one of the best cigars i ever had. It's like smoking my chocolate candy and my coffee all in one. I am waiting for a nice special on the cafe con leche!
I've tried it........NEXT!
I never thought much about infused cigars. I gave a couple of cigars to a co-worker and he returned the favor with a couple of ACIDs. I tried them and liked them. When I got the special offer from CI for the Cafe Con Leche by Drew Estates, the description, and my love of cigars and coffee got to me and I took a chance and bought a box and gave a couple to my co-worker. Over the weekend we tried them and both agreed they are GREAT. Mild flavorful smoke that was simply wonderful. I immediately ordered another box and a box of the Toro Dulce to try. Drew has made a really enjoyable cigar.
In a word, amazing! I have to admit,I was not a connoisseur of flavored cigars. I figured, "why mess up a good thing?" But, when you first open the wrapper and inhale the rich mocha aroma, your hooked. Using a match to light the stick, immediate flavors of dark chocolate and coffee greet you. A little further in, you start to taste the creaminess and subtle hints of milk chocolate. With a toothy, sweet tip, producing clouds of smoke, you understand the genius of this cigar!
I tried these on a sample pack (Drew Estate Tabak Especial Ltd.) on a whim, I tend to really like and enjoy Acid and Drew Estate cigars anyway, but when I got these and had a couple over the weekend, I was hooked! I turned around and ordered a box at an awesome price from CI so now I can not only enjoy them whenever I want, I can share with my son hen he brings the family over! Most excellent cigar from the Estate family- you will not go wrong on these!

Juno Status Report
As of Oct. 17, Juno was approximately 4.4 million miles (7.1 million kilometers) from Earth. The one-way radio signal travel time between Earth and Juno is currently about 24 seconds. Juno is currently traveling at a velocity of about 23.6 miles (38 kilometers) per second relative to the sun. Velocity relative to Earth is about 6.5 miles (10.4 kilometers) per second. Juno has now traveled 1.01 billion miles (1.63 billion kilometers, or 10.9 AU) since launch.
Juno's Earth flyby gravity assist was completed on Oct. 9. Several Juno science instruments made planned observations during the approach to Earth, including the Advanced Stellar Compass, JunoCam and Waves. These observations provided a useful opportunity to test the instruments during a close planetary encounter and ensure that they work as designed. The main goal of the flyby -- to give the spacecraft the boost it needed in order to reach Jupiter - was accomplished successfully, and the spacecraft is in good health and responding to ground controllers.
Soon after its closest approach to Earth, the spacecraft initiated the first of two "safe modes" that have occurred since the flyby. Safe mode is a state that the spacecraft may enter if its onboard computer perceives conditions on the spacecraft are not as expected. Onboard Juno, the safe mode turned off instruments and a few non-critical spacecraft components, and pointed the spacecraft toward the sun to ensure the solar arrays received power. The likely cause of the safe mode was an incorrect setting for a fault protection trigger for the spacecraft's battery. During the eclipse, the solar cells, as expected, were not generating electricity, and the spacecraft was drawing on the battery supply. When the voltage dropped below this fault protection trigger, the spacecraft initiated the safe mode sequence. The spacecraft acted as expected during the transition into and while in safe mode. The spacecraft exited the safe mode on Oct. 12.
The spacecraft entered the safe mode configuration again on Sunday evening (10/13/13). When the spacecraft's onboard computer transitioned from the Earth flyby sequence to the cruise sequence, a component called the stellar reference unit remained in the Earth flyby configuration. When the spacecraft's computer saw the draw on electricity was slightly greater than expected, it did as it was programmed to do and initiated a safe mode event.
Navigation has confirmed that Juno's current trajectory is "near-perfect" vs. planned. The mission team is in two-way communications with the spacecraft and it is operating as expected, and designed for, in safe mode. They expect to exit safe mode sometime next week.
Juno will arrive at Jupiter on July 4, 2016, at 7:29 p.m. PDT (10:29 p.m. EDT).
Juno was launched on Aug. 5, 2011. Once in orbit around Jupiter, the spacecraft will circle the planet 33 times, from pole to pole, and use its collection of eight science instruments to probe beneath the gas giant's obscuring cloud cover. Juno's science team will learn about Jupiter's origins, structure, atmosphere and magnetosphere, and look for a potential solid planetary core.
Juno's name comes from Greek and Roman mythology. The god Jupiter drew a veil of clouds around himself to hide his mischief, and his wife, the goddess Juno, was able to peer through the clouds and reveal Jupiter's true nature.
NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, Calif., manages the Juno mission for the principal investigator, Scott Bolton, of Southwest Research Institute in San Antonio. The Juno mission is part of the New Frontiers Program managed at NASA's Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Ala. Lockheed Martin Space Systems, Denver, built the spacecraft. JPL is a division of the California Institute of Technology in Pasadena.

California ARB fines California port terminal operator $2.5M over air quality violations
Posted: Thu Jan 11, 2018 5:02 pm
Via GCC: http://www.greencarcongress.com/2018/01 ... 1-arb.html
The California Air Resources Board (ARB) announced a $2.5-million settlement with SSA Containers, Inc. and its affiliates. The Seattle-based company received a notice of violation for failing to repower, retire or retrofit its cargo-handling equipment at the ports of Long Beach and Oakland, and for failing to certify large spark ignition engines on yard trucks servicing those terminals, as required by state law.
The company and its affiliates will pay $1.25 million to the Air Pollution Control Fund for pollution research, $728,060 to the South Coast Air Quality Management District to fund air filtration systems in schools located near ports, and $521,940 to the Prescott-Joseph Center for Community Enhancement to fund the Northern California Breathmobile, which travels to disadvantaged communities in the Bay Area to meet health care needs of children with asthma. . . .
As part of the settlement, SSA Containers, Inc. replaced all uncertified engines operating at its facilities, and is now in compliance with CARB's Cargo Handling Equipment and Large Spark Ignition Engine Regulations. . . .

(WASHINGTON) -- A member of the American Nazi Party has joined the ranks of lobbyists on Capitol Hill.
John Bowles, 55, said his official status as a lobbyist was something the 53-year-old party planned to "try out for the first time and see if it flies."
"I always tell my fellow Americans that they need to practice their constitutional rights or their rights will one day be eroded," he said. "Lobbying is one way to do that, to try to get your point across to the elected officials in Congress."
Bowles said some of the key issues he hopes to speak with lawmakers about include ballot access, unemployment, immigration and budgets.
"I'm not going to go in and shove a swastika in their face," he said. "I use a very careful and objective approach. There might be some congressmen who crumple up the paper and some who say, 'this is interesting.'"
The newly minted lobbyist said he won't use derogatory language and was open to working with all members of Congress.
"If they don't hold my politics against me," he said, "I won't hold anything against them."

Burbank and Los Angeles, Calif., February 28, 2012 - Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment, Warner Bros. Home Entertainment Group, SanDisk (Nasdaq: SNDK), and Western Digital (NYSE: WDC) today revealed "Project Phenix" (working title), an initiative that will give consumers an easier and faster way to organize, store and move their high definition digital movies and TV shows - including new releases in up to full 1080p quality - across multiple devices. In addition to local storage, the content will also be backed up via the UltraViolet industry standard as well as other cloud-based services.
The project is being developed by the newly formed Secure Content Storage Association (SCSA). Established as an LLC, this coalition will create and license solutions that secure high definition and other premium copyright-protected content on local and portable hard drives, and flash memory products such as USB flash drives, SD™ cards and solid state disk drives (SSDs). Once content is downloaded to a hard drive or flash memory product, it could then be accessed, online or offline, on any SCSA-enabled device such as a connected TV, laptop, Blu-ray™ player, tablet, mobile phone or game console. The optimized content will be made easily available for purchase via digital download, digital files bundled with physical media, kiosks in retail stores, or other means of secure digital delivery.
"Developing solutions that will allow consumers to easily access and store true HD digital content is a critical component supporting digital media and entertainment consumption," said Darcy Antonellis, President, Warner Bros. Technical Operations. "Through the SCSA, we will accelerate the development of products that will make it easy for the consumer to download, store and playback their high definition digital movies and TV shows, in full 1080p, on any SCSA-optimized device at home and on the go."
"The vision for this new product is to store, play and back up in the cloud personal and professional content," said Mike Dunn, President, Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment. "The device renders content up to 10 times faster than over-the-top internet. We see Project Phenix as a key component of the emerging digital ecosystem."
The SCSA's solutions will be designed to work with the industry-backed UltraViolet (UV) ecosystem and aimed to complement other next-generation high definition content protection technologies already in the market such as Intel® Insider™. The SCSA expects to make its solutions widely available for license this year.
"The SCSA will provide consumers with a digital solution for movies and TV shows that is as simple to use as DVD and Blu-ray discs," said Bert Hesselink, CTO of Western Digital Branded Products. "The SCSA solution will allow the consumer to store high definition purchased content, including copies of certain DVD content, in a secure, consumer-owned digital home library on a hard drive, along with their personal photos, music, and videos. Digital library content can be easily viewed inside the home on a TV, PC or tablet, or when owners are on the move with a portable library copy, providing mobile viewing even when a reliable Internet connection is not available, such as a plane, car, train or remote location."
"Consumers around the world will finally be able to enjoy locally stored premium Hollywood content in up to 1080p quality anywhere they desire on a broad range of electronic devices," said Sumit Sadana, senior vice president and chief strategy officer at SanDisk. "With the involvement of major Hollywood studios and leaders in the HDD and Flash memory industries, the SCSA alliance's openly licensable security standard holds the promise of fostering new device capabilities, new business models and ultimately improved value for consumers. SanDisk is very pleased to participate in this ground breaking alliance."

Why this Workshop?
The Workshop on Entrepreneurship, hosted by the Hungarian authorities (the Ministry of Economic Affairs) in Budapest, on 8-10 September 2003, will be jointly organised by the OECD SME Unit and the Local Economic and Employment Development (LEED) Programme Secretariat, with participation on a voluntary basis, and open to non-member economies participating in the Bologna Process.
It is envisaged that the Budapest Workshop, constituting an important preparatory event in advance of the Istanbul Ministerial Conference 2004, will review the in-progress draft report on Entrepreneurship, to test the related key issues selected for policy recommendations, and to further develop and refine draft policy recommendations for Ministers. It could also offer the opportunity to examine some early findings and recommendations arising from the issues related to innovative SMEs, in particular in relation to financing.
The workshop will be organised as a two-and-a-half-day event and will include individual sessions dedicated to each sub-theme. It is expected that the discussion taking place in each session will allow the identification and elaboration of potential policy recommendations to be included in the 2004 "Istanbul Ministerial Declaration".

Tax hike poorly timed
Wait one minute, the Grayson County Board of Supervisors is considering a jump in our real estate taxes to help them balance our county budget.
Is this the same group that voted to remodel and build two area schools, one of which cannot be opened because someone did not do their homework?
The Gazette reported that the county began in 2008 borrowing money to pay day-to-day expenses. Now our supervisors want a $4 million line of credit, and wanted to renegotiate the school construction loan.

Has anyone heard something about this? I don't have nothing official yet.. a friend of mine heard the news, but i couldn't find a confirmation anywhere.
The rumor is Real Madrid will be in NBA starting with 2007, for 5 years
Has anyone heard something about this? I don't have nothing official yet.. a friend of mine heard the news, but i couldn't find a confirmation anywhere.
The rumor is Real Madrid will be in NBA starting with 2007, for 5 years
I thought Real Madrid was a soccer team...
Anyways, this must be bogus. If a Spanish team were to be considered, why not Unicaja, Tau Ceramica or Akasvayu Girona, which are more competitive.
Or other Eurpoean teams, like CSKA Moscow.
IMO, if you'll ever see another foreign team besides the Canadians in the NBA, it'll most probably be a team from the Americas (Mexico, Argentina or Puerto Rico).
What the rumor probably really refers to are exhibition games, like the ones Maccabi Tel Aviv have played with the Raptors.
desde la cuna del chango
no, no, the rumor said Real Madrid's basketball team signed a 5 years contract with the NBA, and the games will be played 5 at home, 5 on the road, 5 at home, 5 on the road, and so on
Thanks rady .
I´m going to tell you what I know. I hope you understand my "english"
Real Madrid has two sportive sections: the fútbol (soccer) team and the baloncesto (basketball) team. In the past we had 25 different sections and, at this moment, the Club is working to have another 3 sections (futsal, feminine soccer and rugby). In spite of the fact that lately we are not very important sportingly, we continue being Real Madrid Baloncesto, the most storied and successful basketball team in Europe (fans worldwide, important tv rights,...):
The Club has been working the last years in order that the basketball team compete in the NBA (the European competitions don't generate a lot of money; Real Madrid Baloncesto has a 15M euros budget but only generates 1'5M, the soccer team always pay the rest). And the new president, chosen this summer, is very interested in this project.
We are going to built a 90M euros Arena, and a NBA expert will come in a few days to direct the design. Pics: http://www.skyscrapercity.com/showth...2&page=8&pp=20 (today the link to this forum does not work, I hope that tomorrow it will be arranged and you can see this renders).
Last summer the soccer team went to Chicago and LA in its SummerTour2005; the Madrid executives had met with Stern, Bull executives and Lakers executives. This summer (SummerTour2006) we visited Seattle and Salt Lake City, there we met NBAexecutives and Dave Checketts (it is said that maybe he is the key person in this project).
In this interview (http://www.as.com/articulo/futbol/De...daiftb_14/Tes/) Ramón Calderón, the president, said that in 2008 or 2009, the NBA is going to choose 4 european teams to compete in the East Conference and Real Madrid it is going to be one of them.
Who is/what is Real Madrid?
(hehe, i knew i heard something)Originally Posted by chez-martin
so, there will be 4 european teams playing in the NBA? Does that means that the divisions will change again?
I don't know. I don't know a lot of the organizational structure of the NBA.
I explain something more to you. Three years ago, when it was started speaking on this project, it was said that the european teams would have to buy a franchise; I think that it costs 300M dollars, more or less, but for the european teams it would be cheaper and for Real Madrid, money is not a problem.
In that moment the most interesting cities for the NBA were Paris, Madrid and Athens. That year was when Real Madrid met Stern for the first time, in the exhibition game Spurs vs Grizzlies (Paris). The executive who met Stern was Ramon Calderon, "by chance" he is the current president of Real Madrid. Is it a coincidence?
In 2003 the idea did not seem real, but lately there have happened things that reinforce the idea of that is going to be done soon:
This summer the president has met important executives in Seattle, as the vice-president of Boeing... and I read that the NBA franchises have the duty to have private plane ¿¿??.
In 2008 Real Madrid Arena will be finished and fulfill NBA requirements.
Yesterday I read in the local press of Salt Lake City that Dave Checketts was in Real Madrid offices last week.
... Maybe it means something.

Today news. Dave Checketts is interviewed in the Spanish press.
He says that the NBA will come to Europe sooner or later.
He speaks about 4 countries: Spain, France, Italy and Germany.
knicks suck
If this happens, who knows maybe well finally be able to see Milos Vujanic and Fredrick Weiss acctually play.
Im Telling You This Is Such A Lie, Not Gonna Happen. What A Bad Thought!
Ohh yeah this is brilliant....NOT. Its bad enough teams dont like flying to Seattle to play road games let alone now flying out to Germany or France. This wont work logistically. Its another NBA hope dream...just like that ****ty new basketball.
Hi!I'm new in the forum,I'm from spain and a Knicks fan and Real Madrid Basketball/soccer fan.We want play in the NBA,we want do a conference in europe of the NBA.

The whispers in the spring were that Sen. John McCain, the Republican Party's presidential candidate in 2008, was vulnerable to an upset from the right when he sought reelection to the Senate this year. Now, in the home stretch toward Arizona's primary election on Tuesday, such talk has largely faded.
Senator McCain commands a solid lead in polls over former US Rep. J.D. Hayworth, who defines himself as a candidate of the "tea party" movement, and Jim Deakin, a political newcomer who is in third place.
In state where a crackdown on illegal immigration is widely backed by voters, McCain's record of working with Democrats to redesign US immigration policy might not go down easy. It is just the kind of stance that the energetic tea party activists here derided. Moreover, he is a 24-year incumbent working to preserve his seat amid widespread anti-incumbent sentiment.
Given Mr. Hayworth's all-out challenge, McCain's response has been to shift to the right, including on immigration issues. The senator endorsed the state's controversial new immigration law that the Obama administration has challenged in court, and lately he has pushed mainly for tighter border controls, forgoing his role as a unifying force between Democrats and Republicans seeking bipartisan immigration reforms to legalize illegal immigrants. "Complete the danged wall," McCain says in one of his campaign ads as he strolls next to the metal barrier between the US and Mexico.
IN PICTURES: SB1070: Arizona immigration law protests
By moving away from some of the more independent views that earned him admirers and the "maverick" label but that angered far-right Republicans here, McCain has strengthened his standing with the mainstream Republican base, says William Dixon, a political scientist at the University of Arizona. "Some of those conservative Republicans who were upset with him years ago now are saying he's taking the right positions."
Hayworth is not giving up the race just yet, though. At a weekend tea party rally near the border, McCain's rival called the former presidential candidate a "shape-shifter" who can't be trusted.
"We will carry the day because in the final analysis voters want to have a consistent United States senator who is conservative, who means what he says and says what he means," says the one-time talk radio host.
Like Hayworth, there are others who don't buy the notion that McCain has given up on enacting comprehensive immigration reform, which includes a path to citizenship for some illegal immigrants. For instance, Americans for Legal Immigration political action committee (ALIPAC) announced Thursday it's mobilizing a network of volunteers to dial up voters before the primary and "warn them that John McCain's amnesty plans will destroy America's borders and probably the nation."
It probably helps McCain that Arizona's Republican Gov. Jan Brewer, who is riding a wave of popularity for her tough stance on illegal immigration, has been campaigning alongside him. But there's also another big factor in McCain's favor: money. His campaign has spent about $20 million, compared with Hayworth's roughly $2.5 million.
"Money isn't everything but it's a lot," says Tim Hagle, a political scientist at the University of Iowa. "Hayworth can point out weaknesses in McCain's record, but when you've got that much of a war chest behind you, the incumbent in this case can spend a lot of money countering those ads. And then the challenger really doesn't have that ability to come back."
Throughout a fierce campaign, Hayworth has attacked what he says are inconsistencies in McCain's record, and the senator has fought back by linking his opponent to disgraced lobbyist Jack Abramoff and pounding on Hayworth for his role in an infomercial that pitched free money in government grants after he was voted out of office in 2006.
The money McCain has poured into the campaign makes it difficult for Hayworth to compete, say supporters like Republican state Sen. Russell Pearce, who has led Arizona's efforts to clamp down on illegal immigration.
"I'm disappointed that he's not in the lead," Mr. Pearce says of Hayworth. "He's still in striking distance, and all we can do is hope and pray…. We need change, and you can't have change until you change Washington, D.C."
The energetic tea party crowd taking in Hayworth's message Aug. 15 at a private ranch in Hereford, Ariz. – within sight of the border wall – made it clear they stand behind him.
"He is the most conservative candidate," says Anna Weddle, a former McCain supporter who traveled more than 200 miles from Phoenix to see Hayworth. "McCain says he is conservative, but he isn't."
Still, Hayworth's attempt to capitalize on any lingering disenchantment with McCain just won't be enough to persuade a significant number of primary voters, predicts Professor Hagle.
"Despite his maverick reputation on some issues, McCain in general is still a fairly conservative guy," he says. "So a lot of folks in the Republican Party that like Hayworth are still not willing to abandon McCain. That's the difficulty Hayworth faces."
That seemed to be the case at a McCain campaign event Wednesday in Green Valley south of Tucson, where the senator spoke to a group of blue-collar workers. The senator sounded as if he had already won a fifth term when he told his audience that if lawmakers in Washington act quickly on "Obamacare," President Obama's health care reform, "We could cancel out a lot of it."
Worker Todd Scoggin liked what he heard from McCain, especially his views on illegal immigration and his call to put National Guard troops on the border.
"I agree with his comments that yes, we are all immigrants from one time or another, but let's do it legally."

The mix of synthetic filaments provide responsiveness and control for thicker application of colour, whilst maintaining shape retention, regardless of how much water you use. The synthetic filaments in the flat brushes are curved, helping to retain the original shape during use. The round brushes offer a good point for delicate linear application.The brushes with short-handles have a softer head, ideal for glazing or a water colour style of painting. The long-handled brushes are made from stiffer filaments, allowing thicker application on tougher surfaces.
