*If necessary
– Not much to say about the game. The Hawks won 99-83, Rook' looked good and nobody got hurt. Cavs coach Mike Brown summed it up: "Glad to get this game over with. Now we can focus on the playoffs."
– It was a weird night. I spent more time looking at the out-of-town scoreboards than the main one. You probably did the same. I vaguely recall seeing Jason Collins shoot a 3-pointer but that can't be right, can it?
– And then Heat-Nets went into overtime as us hacks waited for Woody to come out for his postgame presser. That was no good for my deadline. Then it went to double overtime, and Woody came out. That was no good for my questions because, really, I had none.
– The Hawks won 53 games, their most since winning 56 in the 1996-97 season. "It's been fantastic," Woody said before the Heat game ended. "We look at things in three phases: exhibition, regular season, and now it's time for the playoffs. We don't know who we are going to play, but it don't matter. (Thursday) we start that journey."
– Long story short(er), I had to leave the locker room before the Heat game was final. So I don't know how the Hawks feel about playing the Bucks. But judging by their reactions while watching Heat-Nets, I'd say they are ready to take on Milwaukee.
– Coincidentally, I've lived in Milwaukee and Miami. I will let you guess which city I was trying to visit for the playoffs.
– Jamal and J.J. didn't dress. Bibby, Al and Josh didn't play. Woody says the Hawks are in good health. "Everybody is fine. If they had to play tonight they all would have played."
– The Hawks were 2-1 against the Bucks during the regular season. All of those games were played after the Bucks traded for John Salmons. One of those, the Hawks' 104-96 victory on Monday, came after Bogut was lost for the season.
– That was, in my opinion, the best road game the Bucks had played since winning at Utah on Feb. 22. If the Hawks play with that kind of energy and focus in this series I don't see how the Bucks can stay with them. Of course, we know that's a giant "if" for the Hawks.
– My quickie analysis says the Hawks enjoy significant advantages at center (Al/Zaza over Kurt Thomas/Gadzuric/Ilyasova) and power forward (Josh over Mbah a Moute).
– Salmons is sneaky good but J.J. obviously is better all-around. Brandon Jennings is good but he's an erratic rookie. Ridnour is solid. But give me Bibby/Crawford over those two.
– Delfino/Stackhouse probably has the edge over Marvin/Mo. Probably, right?
– The numbers say the Bucks are a much better defensive team than the Hawks, and that the Hawks are much better than the Bucks on offense.
– I'd say if the Hawks really are capable of turning it on for the postseason, they have more potential to be a better defensive team than the Bucks do of being a better offensive team. Sound about right?
– Anyway, back to Hawks-Cavs. Teague had 24 points, 15 assists and five turnovers. "The young Rook', I can't praise him enough," Woody said. "It's been tough on him not playing many minutes."
– Before the game, Woody offered some personal perspective on his handling of Teague: "I know it's tough on him because I know how it was when I came in to the league after playing a lot of minutes in college. I played for a coach who didn't believe in playing rookies, (former Knicks coach) Red Holzman. He thought rookies should sit and learn. And I learned a lot in that first year."
– So that how it's gone for Teague. "I think I showed that I can play in this league," he said. "I think (Woody) believes in me. He's told me it was going to be a learning year like he told you guys. So I just soaked everything up and tried to learn as much as possible, and tried to learn from Bibby and Jamal as much as I could."
– Woody's rotation includes Jamal, Mo and Zaza off the bench. After that "it's up in the air" with Joe Smith, Collins, Teague and Mario perhaps playing "in certain situations," Woody said.
– The league releases the official schedule early Thursday morning. I'll update this post when I get it.
– I'm out, Hawks fans.

so Boston tried to trick us…….and the Heat almost lost to New Jersey…….and Teague makes like a superstar…….
I am both angry and surprised and jaded and excited all at the same time.
Go Hawks!
April 15th, 2010
12:08 am
Woodson playing Teague 48 min tonight was basically Woody telling Teague: "Look, I don't use the bench in games that matter. You won't play in the playoffs more than 4 mpg unless Bibby fouls out in the 1st, so enjoy tonight"

Let's go Hawks!!!
April 15th, 2010
12:21 am
With the seasons stats in the book, us Hawks fans cannot really complain about a 53 win season, a sixth man of the year, a new all star center, a new starting all-star, sweeping Boston, beating Cleveland, Orlando, LA, Utah, Dallas, Denver, San Antonio, Phoenix, Miami and others. All in all those that understand the Hawks will always have a complaint, but lets for one night give it up to the Hawks who gave us some of the most memorial games I can ever remember in one season. 145 points against Toronto, buzzer beaters against Chicago, Phoenix and Orlando, Zaza's monster games, J_Smooves huge numbers (and even small numbers when it came to 3's this year)
Go get you playoff tickets and get ready to start giving the Hawks the home court advantage they have earned. If tickets are too steep just eat some ramen noodles for a week or so and get your butt into Phillips to wave those rally towels and show some love in the Highlight Factory!!
Honestly, who knows what the Hawks will bring in the post season, but "You gotta believe" Hawks Fans…………….LETS GO HAWKS, LETS GO HAWKS
April 15th, 2010

congrats to Teague on his first double double, hopefully there's more to come

"The numbers say the Bucks are a much better defensive team than the Hawks, and that the Hawks are much better than the Bucks on offense. "
With Bogut out of the picture, I would throw those stats out the window. My instinct tells me both teams are about even defensively right now, and in my opinion Luke Ridnour is a perennial candidate for the Bizarro All-Defense team.

shame on woody for not giving teague more minutes. our record would have been better &teague
would have developed more. this kid plays great defense,can pass & penetrates well opening easy
shots foe everybody,also plays uptempo which this team should & does not
April 15th, 2010
12:29 am
To be real, as a fan of basketball in general I feel bad for Bucks fans that Bogut is not playing in the playoffs. The Hawks would win either way, but it would make for much better basketball with Bogut in the picture. As of right now, the Bucks have two guys who have any kind of meaningful playoff experience, a rookie point guard, and no inside scoring. They can probably keep games close because they have the personnel to D up Joe Johnson, but on paper, this series shouldn't go longer than 5 games.
As for the Heat-Celtics series, I hope both of them find a way to lose.

I agree rusty. I have been saying this the whole season we should play Teague more because we will need him during the playoffs. It shows that Bibby has lost a step or few steps. He has to be one of the quickest or eluvsive guys in the league. He plays like Rondo. Great Defense but the Offense is suspect. But I think he has potential and a great upside.
April 15th, 2010
12:58 am
I also think we should play Randolph Morris a little more. He is productive in the little to no chances that he gets to play.
April 15th, 2010
1:26 am
Charlotte is 1-3 against Orlando…..Charlotte does have a tactician coach….and the team has been known to play defense for the entire game. I'm hoping the Hawks will sweep the Bucks and have time to prepare for the Magic. Charlotte will win 1 or 2 games, and maybe Woody will see something in the way Charlotte does it. Could Charlotte actually win the series? They did beat Cleveland twice.
Go Hawks! Hawks versus Mavericks in the finals. It has been said that the league brass want Cleveland against LA and that the refereeing will reflect this. Why wouldn't they want the Hawks? On a good night, the Hawks are the most exciting team in the NBA!

Won't be able to make it to game 1, but I will be in Phillips for game 2. GO HAWKS!!!! BTW on tv tonight they were requesting that everyone wear white to the playoff games. Lets white-out the Bucks.

lol if they want everyone to wear white………………why not just giveout white shirts
April 15th, 2010

@Teaged for all I know they might be giving out white shirts at the game, but Bob Rathbun, and Nique were saying don't forget to wear white.

I wasn't really paying attention, but I think I heard them say they will be giving out white towels. Can anyone corroborate?

Confirmed. They will be giving out free rally towels, but they still want everyone to wear white.

Wdsn just said it:
I was never gonna play Teague to begin with.
Thats what Red Holzman did so it must be right.
Ken Strickland & others have said all year,
it would have been the same had we drafted
C. Paul or S. Curry, it didn't matter, the man
don't play rookies.
Sit & learn, young man.
His mindset is not going to change.
He is rigid, stubborn, headstrong, single-minded,
callous and unabating, just as he is with his
switching defense, playing Bibby v quick guards,
Failing to adapt offensively [zones] or continuously
puzzled by 4th qtr. collapses.
I apologize to all.
This should be a happy evening.
Congrats to Mr. Wdsn for 50+ wins & the # 3 seed.
Teaguer's evening & Wdsn's remarks just brought
out my frustration for the young man. [Teague]
I sincerely wish the best for the Hawks & for
Mr. Wdsn. Right now, what's good for him is good
for all us Hawk fans. Evening, Yawl.

April 15th, 2010

gwite – he cannot develop rookie point guards, he kills their confidence. He did start Smoove, he had no choice – lets not forget that Woody and Smoove frequently bumped heads early. He started Marvin, he had no choice in that either, Harrington was traded and they needed a small forward. Acie Law and Salim Stoudemire were two guards that he ruined IMO – they were not garbage but when Woody was done with them – they sure felt like it….I digress, CONGRATS on the 3rd seed Hawks, I hope this is a short series going our way with the Bucks so we can rest up for the Magic/Bobcats.
April 15th, 2010

Yep .. . . just like he didn't start Acie Law 6 games into his rookie season.
Oh wait . . . . . .

Sorry we won't be seeing you in SoFla, cunningham (not with lebron in our bracket now).
heat fans were a tad upset that miami ended up winning against Nets (and that spoelstra used two starters in double OT), getting path with celtics/cavs. but celtics look like a team that can be had now.
Best comment about last night's events come from a commenter named Tony on Ira's S-S Heat blog:
"Some perspective is in order: NJ couldn't beat a team trying to tank a game. Wow. That's some Grade A suckitude right there."
April 15th, 2010
4:26 am
Great season Hawks…from 13 wins to 53 and back to a loftier status we used to enjoy in the 80s and 90s. Let's hope this is the year that the Hawks finally get past the 2nd round…go Bobcats!
It's funny that the Heat did everything they could to lose that game to the Nets so they could play the Hawks and potentially have a 2nd round matchup with the Magic. The Heat are 0-3 vs the Celtics this year and 3-1 vs the Hawks.
By defeating the Nets, Miami's reward is traveling many extra miles to play a team that has owned them in recent years. And a potential second round match-up would be against the Cavs instead of in-state Orlando.
Frankly, I think the Heat should have played the ball boys against the Nets. As a Hawks fan, I'd like to think the Hawks could have taken care of the Heat anyway. I'm just glad we don't have to find out in what would have likely been a another 7 game first round. Hawks should beat the Bucks in 5 games.
April 15th, 2010
5:29 am
We had a great season and a surprisingly healthy one. I am savoring the 53 wins, the effort put in by the 2nd unit and major props to Jeff Teague who showed why we drafted him. I have seen the potential in him from the start and he demonstrated why faith in his development is justified in this game. Acie Law couldn't have had that kind of game if the Caveliers only played 3 players.
We should beat the Bucks in 5 games. After that, who knows. I just hope we remain healthy throughout the playoffs because it will be physical and any team at any time that has a laspe will be exploited. There is a reason why teams made the playoffs. They are good.
We had a great year with the addition of Jamaal, both JJ and Al making the All-Star team with JJ starting, Mo Evans showing that he can actually take the place of Josh Childress and an amazing demonstration by the Rook on why we were correct in drafting him in the first place.
Let's root for our team and give them the respect and support they deserve. Despite our sometimes gripe about how Woody does things, Je Je and Clyde not withstanding, there is support for what he has accomplished over the last 5 years. This is the kind of progression that has been attributed to people like Larry Brown, Don Nelson and Pat Riley. I am not saying that Woody is in their league yet, but if you look at the progression of wins in the amount of time he has been the coach, it puts him on the same kind of track that those coachs have taken. Like him or not, he has, despite the friction between him and BK been the rudder for the team to continually improve over the last 5 years.
Go Hawks!!! I am proud of you and have remained a loyal fan since you move to ATL.

I am letting golf go till after the playoffs. Like Hawks too much.
Well done my boyz. Teach all those nay sayers what we'r about. Well done my friend and brother Wooden. Another year, another step up the ladder.
Wooden proven his system works.
For all nay sayers, including Grand Daddy you, look at the record of this African American coach.
Grand Daddy you are sounding old and tired, you are not old. You are labelin Wooden as being a bully he is not. He is a father figure. I gave you examples of his type in my previous post, but you ignored easily. Again labeling him as a bully which is NOT true. He has a philosophy and believes in it. Now go back to watching black and white reels.
Je Je, at least Grand Daddy speaks his mind elegantly. What is your beef? Coach Wooden has the Hawks peaking at the right time.
Excellent job coach and the team…

Went to the Hawks game last night, and the NBA should be ashamed of itself for putting stuff like that on the floor. I'd rather watch the old dudes in my gym play on a nightly basis than watch what I saw last night.

I guess Teague can play after all!
April 15th, 2010
6:57 am
Well, I thought that it was a highly entertaining game and a good opportunity to watch the reserves have a go.
Maybe you feel cheated because you bought the tickets beforehand and did not get to see the starters… well, buying tickets for the last game of the regular season is a hit or miss exercise:
It can be a seminal game or it can be a completely unimportant one… you got the latter, tough luck.

"I know it's tough on him because I know how it was when I came in to the league after playing a lot of minutes in college. I played for a coach who didn't believe in playing rookies, (former Knicks coach) Red Holzman. He thought rookies should sit and learn. And I learned a lot in that first year."
I still think there were games where Teague could have gotten more PT (when Bibby was struggling, or giving us nothing in the second half), but Woody had his veteran guards, and the mindset that he has, is that a rookie should sit and learn.
Anyway, Teague knows there are things he needs to work on this offseason, which will hopefully force Woody to play him next year, especially since Bibby will be another year older, and possibly, another year slower.
Hawks still had 53 wins, so congratulations to Hawks players and coaches.
Looking at the playoff schedule, we play Saturday, then Tuesday, and then Saturday again? Thats a long time for us to wait in between games.
However, with the break between games, I wont be surprised to see Woody ride his starters (even if they are tired).
I'm predicting Hawks in 6.

Another thing and in particular on College ball (any major sport, really):
Given the fact that a significant percentage of the players are not actually getting any education, enter college in many occasions solely because they are athletically gifted and leave school early for the pros, haven't you thought that the whole NCAA set up is slaving and milking youngsters for a profit and a fat cat life for execs and coaches??
In return they do get the exposure that may give them a pro contract, but what about the hundreds that get nothing? Neither a proper education (because they are not really forced to study) nor a fat contract after playing 3 or 4 years as outright slaves when they don't get picked??
The whole logic behind College sports is distorted due to all the financial interests surrounding them: the players are amateur and cannot even get a deal with a sneaker company without being in violation of the rules, but everyone else makes a good life out of their effort.
The only way you could continue to look at College sports with that same appreciation would be if the players were actually being forced to be serious about their education and were really forced to be academically successful in order to play.
Everyone knows that the system only rules out players who's academic status is below zero.
If the players really had

Acie Law has game just has to get in the right situation with the right team Woody just didn't like him.
April 15th, 2010
7:58 am
LOL @ people thinking Teague will somehow get more playoff minutes based on last night's performance.
Woody will do what he always does — the games will be close going into the 4th (4 pts or less, either side winning) and Woody will throw in the starters with 9 minutes left, too scared to play Teague extended minutes.
Acie Law owned the Cleveland bench last year too (21 pts maybe?) and didn't play much the rest of the year — why will this be different?
April 15th, 2010
8:15 am
You can say it a million times, but it isn't true . . . Jamal, ZaZa, and Mo Evans have been in several close games in the 2nd half – are you actually watching the games or what?
April 15th, 2010
8:20 am
The Hawks should at least play 10 guys in the playoff Joe Smith should get just as much time as ZaZa.
He's better on offense than any of the big men starter or reserve.
April 15th, 2010
8:26 am
Anyway, back to Hawks-Cavs. Teague had 24 points, 15 assists and five turnovers. "The young Rook', I can't praise him enough," Woody said. "It's been tough on him not playing many minutes."
– Before the game, Woody offered some personal perspective on his handling of Teague: "I know it's tough on him because I know how it was when I came in to the league after playing a lot of minutes in college. I played for a coach who didn't believe in playing rookies, (former Knicks coach) Red Holzman. He thought rookies should sit and learn. And I learned a lot in that first year."
– So that how it's gone for Teague. "I think I showed that I can play in this league," he said. "I think (Woody) believes in me. He's told me it was going to be a learning year like he told you guys. So I just soaked everything up and tried to learn as much as possible, and tried to learn from Bibby and Jamal as much as I could."
I rest my case.
Now that some of you have gotten it verbatim from the man himself, perhaps you will believe it. Or, you will continue the most preposterous practice of supporting the man unequivocally, while ignoring and denying anything he says that doesn't fit into your personal agenda driven arguments.
And all I'm going to do is laugh at you….
Having said that, this does NOT support the idea that Woody never plays his rookies. That's a whole different argument, and it is predicated on what position the rookie plays, as well as which veterans are ahead of him. Of course, you have to be able to recognize certain details to understand what that even means, and some simply need not apply to the discussion.
I would not look for Teague to play much in the playoffs, especially when things are tight. Woody did not prepare him for this, so why would he put him in that kind of situation unless he was absolutely forced to? Doesn't make sense. So the idea that he wouldn't play him because he's a rookie has nothing to do with it really. Woody won't ask the kid to do anything that he didn't try to prepare him to do, simple and plain. The job will fall to JJ, Bibby, and Jamal.

Truth Serum,
How can you say Horford has peaked when he's out of position? If he's a power forward and one day gets moved back to power forward, might he not put up bigger numbers then?
If the man is trade bait, then what do we trade him for? No team is dumb enough to trade a "real center" as you describe, for a power forward. Not unless that center is not a very good one, or an average one at best. Brendan Haywood is a real center. Roy Hibbert is a real center. Both guys are over 7′ and 270 lbs. Would you trade Horford for one of them? Just trying to get an idea of where you think Atlanta should go with this. You say it's easy enough to do (getting a center who will take us to the NBA championship) and that Sund should have done it already.
And please don't suggest trading Horford for Lopez. Lopez helped his team to a whopping 12 wins (which is worse than this team did six years ago) this season, and even though that stinks to high heaven, they are not going to trade the young, prototypical center that they drafted.

If this team is fully healthy, there's no way ZaZa and Mo play down the stretch over Marvin and Horford. Marvin has seemed to have gotten more minutes down the stretch.

Team USA has advanced to the gold medal game for the second straight Olympics where they will again be taking on Spain.
USA vs. Spain is the gold medal matchup everyone wanted to see. The United States are of course the favorites to bring home gold while Spain has always been considered their greatest competition.
Team USA has won all seven of its games in the Olympics so far by an average margin of 35.7 points per game. Spain has been far less impressive losing twice in pool play and looking weak in each of their last two games in the medal round.
The United States has passed some tests so far, beating Argentina twice and surviving a close scare vs. Lithuania but Spain should still be their toughest battle yet.
Here are five reasons why Spain might upset the United States in the gold medal game.
Spain is bigger
Let's start with the most obvious one here. Spain has a significant size advantage over the U.S. and they intend to take advantage of it as much as possible. Spain starts the Gasol brothers and then brings Serge Ibaka and Felipe Reyes off the bench.
The U.S. will start Tyson Chandler as their only big and use Kevin Love too but mostly plays LeBron James, Kevin Durant and Carmelo Anthony at power forward. The U.S. has outrebounded their opponents by over 10 boards per game in the Olympics but that is mostly because they are shooting a far higher percentage.
The U.S. is definitely weak inside as we saw in their games vs. Lithuania and Argentina, when they play without a rim protector their opponent will get a lot of relatively easy looks at the rim.
Spain will pound it inside on offense and pack in their zone on defense. This is closer to the international style and they will have an advantage. Mismatches do go both ways though and Team USA will have to make sure they take advantage by featuring their more skilled forwards in positions where they can be effective against slower, bigger defenders.
3-point shooting
Team USA has lived by the three and they've won by it so far in the Olympics. They are attempting 36.6 threes per game and making .445 percent of them. That's off the charts but there is always a chance even for Team USA to go cold from behind the line tomorrow morning.
Durant and Anthony become very important in this regard as they have led Team USA in 3-point shooting. Durant is shooting .558 percent from three in the Olympics and Anthony .525. They are Team USA's two leading scorers as well.
Spain has been on the opposite end in terms of 3-point shooting success in the Olympics. They're shooting just .328 percent as a team with some of their best guys really struggling.
Rudy Fernandez is third on the team in scoring and shooting .367 percent. Juan Carlos Navarro is shooting .333 percent and Jose Calderon .348 percent. Even Pau Gasol has been shooting the three for them, making just 5-for-15 in total.
Spain is fully capable though of heating up from three in any game as they showed in the second half of their semifinal game vs. Russia. They will need to do that and pray that Team USA has an off shooting night to pull off the upset.
40-minute game
The games in these Olympics are eight minutes shorter than NBA games. That means there is greater chance for an upset and less time to erase mistakes made early in the game. Spain is more experience playing this style and will surely try and take advantage of it to the fullest mostly by controlling the pace of the game.
Fortunately for Team USA, Spain hasn't been getting off to great starts lately and will definitely need to if they plan to win the gold medal. Spain should be up for this game more than any other though and we should see a more concentrated effort from them. Pau Gasol admitted himself that Spain has been looking ahead too much in the Olympics so far. That won't be the case tomorrow.
Team USA has consistently seen teams play their best games against them, at least for spurts. With the game obviously being close early, Spain should show us their best game from the start. We've seen Argentina unable to sustain this for 40 minutes but Spain may be able to.
The officials haven't exactly been on the side of Team USA in these Olympics as per usual. The rules are a little different and there are some things that Team USA will simply never get used to. We've seen a lot of Team USA players called for traveling or called for very questionable fouls.
You only get five fouls before fouling out in international play and that could play a huge factor. Chandler will be more important than ever in this matchup vs. Spain but he has in every game gotten into some sort of foul trouble. One would expect that to happen again vs. Spain and that could be very bad news for Team USA.
Team USA players don't get star treatment either overseas. LeBron and Durant will be asked to defend Spain's post players some and will be vulnerable to some easy foul calls. If one or both of them has to sit on the bench more than normal, Spain will have that much better of a chance to pull off the upset.
Kobe is probably Spain's best chance for beating Team USA. Kobe has been for the most part pretty horrible in the Olympics although he has been better in the last two games. We know that Kobe will be shooting in the gold medal game and if he's not hitting, that will put Team USA in a tough spot.
Coach K will more than likely play Kobe at least half of the game and probably more and he will have him out there during crunch time, if there is one. Kobe has the potential to shoot Team USA out of the game or Spain into the game if he looks like the Kobe we saw in pool play.
The same goes for Anthony as well. Both he and Kobe are going to take shots, probably a lot of bad ones, and if they're not falling, Spain will be that much closer to Team USA.
The margin for error will be the smallest for Team USA tomorrow morning. They've been able to overcome their imperfections so far but Spain is the real test.

GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ) - A Brown County judge has let a man go free after his sentencing for a hit-and-run crash that killed a wheelchair-bound man in January 2011.
42-year-old Mark Sperber has already served 25 months in jail after being sentenced to 10 years in prison in February 2012. Sperber, however, was granted a retrial and agree to a plea deal earlier this week to avoid it.
Part of that plea deal was the prosecution agreeing not to recommend additional jail time that what Sperber has already served.
Sperber was found guilty of the hit-and-run crash on Velp Avenue that killed John Kennedy.

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., said yesterday he agrees with Sen. Max Baucus, D-Mont., that Obamacare will be a "huge train wreck" if the administration doesn't change the way it's implementing the law. Reid made the comments during a radio interview on the Rusty Humphries Show.
"Did you draft any of the bill, the 2,700 pages, and did you read it, and what do you think of Max Baucus calling it a train wreck?" asked caller J.D. from Nevada.
"He's talking about Obamacare, I'm guessing. Go ahead," said host Rusty Humphries.
"Of course I read it. I didn't sit down in a Friday evening and read it, you know," said Reid. "This legislation was drafted over a period of months and months. It took a long time to get it done. So I can pass a test on it, I know the law pretty well. But Max Baucus, Max is my friend, he decided not to run for reelection, that's too bad. But he's been there for 34 years in the Senate, and he spent 6 or 8 years in the House."
"Max said unless we implement this properly it's going to be a train wreck, and I agree with him," Reid added.

Over 200 literary terms, Shmooped to perfection.
A French word meaning to "untie," the dénouement refers to the part of the story when the plot resolves itself in a (usually) exciting and clever way. Think of it as the moment (or scenes) when we find out what happens to the characters after everything has changed during the climax.

One of the major moments in the lead up to draft day is Bob McKenzie's list. The show just ended, top 60 is posted at tsn and the conversation can begin.
The list is here. Biggest surprise for me is how far Grigorenko fell, bet the Oilers would love to get that Carolina pick now. It's going to be a very interesting week.
- McKenzie on Yakupov: "8 of the 10 scouts I talked to said he is the #1 prospect in the draft."
- McKenzie on Yakupov: "And as much as he is the consensus #1 pick I would say the gap between Nail Yakupov and the rest of the field–over the year–closed considerably.

DIY projects #5 : Triangles T
Here's a new simple project for you !
You'll need :
- A piece of clothing : a tshirt, some leggings…
- Paint for fabrics
- Knife
1) First start to think about the colors, it's simple to start with white fabric but if you work on black, you would preferably use a white paint. Got me ?
2) Choose a shape and start cutting your potatoes. Make different sizes. Or not, you see.
3) For this tshirt, I mixed paints because I wanted to create some ombré and tie dye style. But you can use just one color, you see ! Now have fun ! You can do something really out of control like the tshirt you see, but you can also work with symmetrical triangles and cover a whole dress with them, up and down like this :

[NOTE: Revised release includes corrected individual school results for 2011 and paragraph explaining CollegeBoard "cohort" reporting changes.]
SAT scores for the Cobb County School District's most recent graduates remain well above averages for the state of Georgia and the nation, despite a 2-point decrease from last year. Seniors in the class of 2012 posted an overall score of 1520 (combined Reading, Math and Writing totals), besting their statewide peers' average by 68 points and the national average by 22 points.
In the SAT's three academic areas, Cobb students' Reading scores increased by two points, while Writing scores decreased three points and Math scores dipped a single point. By comparison, national scores decreased one point in Reading, one point in Writing and remained flat for Math. Georgia scores increased slightly in all three subject areas.
Eight of Cobb's 15 high schools posted combined totals higher than the national average of 1498, including Harrison, Hillgrove, Kell, Kennesaw Mountain, Lassiter, Pope, Walton, and Wheeler. Hillgrove High School posted the largest year to year gain with an average of 1528, a 58 point increase from last year, while six other schools showed increases of more than 10 points over 2011 scores, including Kennesaw Mountain (34 points), Allatoona (21 points), Sprayberry (20 points), Campbell (19 points), Walton (18 points), and South Cobb (14 points).
The performance and participation rate of specific student groups on college preparation exams such as the SAT are important measures of the District's efforts to narrow the achievement gap. In the diverse class of 2012, Cobb saw an increase in the numbers of African‐American, Hispanic and Native American test takers, and slight decline in the numbers of Asian and White students taking the test. Eleven (11) percent of SAT test takers identified themselves as speaking English and one other language, while 7 percent of seniors tested identified themselves as native speakers of a language other than English. The 2012 average score for African-American students increased by 14 points to 1336, Native American students posted a 49-point increase to 1528, and the average for Asian students increased by 31 points to 1707. Hispanic students showed a 26-point drop in average score to 1403 in 2012, and the average score for White students declined by one point to 1618.
"These scores tell me that our students are well-prepared to compete at the college level," said Superintendent Dr. Michael Hinojosa. "We know that the district's SAT average isn't going to increase every year, but we did see marked improvement in several of our student groups as we continue to focus on closing the achievement gap. The scores also show us some areas that need greater attention, including our students whose native language is not English."
The SAT is designed to predict a student's potential for success in the first year of college. It tests students' knowledge and application of Reading, Writing and Math. The writing section of the test asks students to write an essay that requires them to take a position on an issue and use reasoning and examples to support their position. The Math section of the test includes topics from third‐year college‐preparatory math, such as exponential growth, absolute value, functional notation, and negative and fractional exponents. The Critical Reading section, previously known as the Verbal section, includes short and long reading passages.
Beginning with 2011 results, the College Board changed the way SAT scores are reported, including scores from summer test takers that make up the graduating "cohort" group. In prior years, only scores for test takers through early June were included. In the 2012 release, numbers for 2010 have been revised to reflect the cohort methodology.
Many factors affect SAT scores from year to year, including the percentage of students taking the test, student academic preparation, knowledge of English, parents' education, and locality. Cobb information shows that the higher the grades and rank‐in‐class achieved, generally the higher the mean SAT scores.
Parents who desire more information about their student's SAT scores should contact counselors in the local high school who can provide proper interpretation to help make the best use of test results.
SAT scores for individual Cobb high schools are listed in Table II.

Fifty years ago, the Jule Styne-Bob Merrill Funny Girl opened on Broadway. Fifty years ago, Jerry Herman's Hello, Dolly! and Bock and Harnick's Fiddler on the Roof also came to town, as did Stephen Sondheim's Anyone Can Whistle; but none of the latter three has been celebrated with a digitally remastered 50th Anniversary Deluxe Edition boxed set retailing for well over one hundred dollars. But then, it's not the score of Funny Girl that's the attraction. It's the funny girl.
The "People" musical and Barbra Streisand are intrinsically linked, of course; the thought of one without the other has made the prospect of a big-time revival problematic, and not without reason.
The Funny Girl story starts with an aspiring film producer called Ray Stark, whose first major movie was "The World of Suzie Wong" in 1960. Two years earlier, his production company — Seven Arts Productions — had served as associate producer of the hit Broadway version of Suzie Wong, produced by David Merrick. (Most likely this means either that that Seven Arts funded the Merrick production in exchange for the film rights, or that Seven Arts already had an option on the underlying novel when Merrick came along.) Just after the play opened, Merrick went into production with a musical biography of Gypsy Rose Lee.
Stark apparently watched with close interest; his mother-in-law, Fanny Brice, had been a considerably bigger star than Gypsy. When the prospect of a Fanny Brice musical came along — Mary Martin was announced to star, in 1960 — Stark invited Merrick to co-produce the show. (They called their joint venture "The F B Company.")
Merrick brought in Gypsy songwriters Styne and Sondheim, and Gypsy director/choreographer Jerome Robbins. Sondheim quickly withdrew; he didn't much want to write lyrics to someone else's music, anyway. The new lyricist was Bob Merrill, who had written Take Me Along and Carnival for Merrick. When Robbins withdrew, they eventually wound up with Garson Kanin, who had directed The Good Soup and Do Re Mi for Merrick. The stars, too, came from Merrick musicals: Streisand from I Can Get It for You Wholesale and Sydney Chaplin from Subways Are For Sleeping. So this was something of an all-Merrick production.
Funny Girl was delayed and delayed, finally going into production in December 1963. At the end of the first week of rehearsal, Merrick — foreseeing severe battles between the director and the star, fed up with Stark, and watching Dolly! build into a major hit during its Washington tryout — allowed himself to be bought out. Merrick didn't mind backstage turmoil, not in the least, but he was used to himself being the center of the turmoil. Here, Stark — as husband of Fanny Brice and Nicky Arnstein's daughter Frances — had control.
Funny Girl endured a difficult path to Broadway, with the six-week tryout being extended by a month as they tried to fix the show. Along the way, book doctor John Patrick was hired and fired, after which Kanin himself was fired and replaced by Jerome Robbins. Kanin retained contractual billing as director, with Robbins deemed "production supervisor." Choreographer Carol Haney — who danced "Steam Heat" for Robbins in The Pajama Game in 1954 — was fired, too.

O Canada: Bank stocks for 2013
They had a strong fourth quarter, but can they keep it up next year?
By Will Ashworth
Before buying a Canadian bank, every investor should read commentary about Canada from Connor, Clark & Lunn -- a Canadian money manager. It will provide a sobering reminder that Canada has its own set of problems (see excerpts from a recent report here).
Just because you can get better yields north of the border doesn't necessarily mean they're a better buy. While the U.S. continues to slowly get its act together, Canada has failed to deal with personal debt -- the repercussions of which could be felt by its banks in 2013.
Of course, I'm not saying you shouldn't invest in Canadian banks. Just that you go in with your eyes wide open.
With that in mind, how do picks in the sector stack up heading into 2013? Let's take a look:
The Bank of Montreal
From a purely numbers standpoint, the clear winner of Q4 is The Bank of Montreal (BMO). It saw earnings increase 38% year over year to C$1.65 a share. Leading the charge was the capital markets division (including trading and investment banking), which posted a 30% increase in revenue and a 95% increase in net income. CEO Bill Downe also believes its capital markets division is perfectly positioned for organic growth in 2013.
The company's U.S. banking operations have been totally transformed over the past 24 months, too, thanks to the acquisition of Marshall and Ilsley last year. BMO Harris Bank increased its market share for deposits in the Chicago area to almost 12% in the fourth quarter -- the second highest in this major metropolitan market. The Midwest has definitely become BMO's core market in the U.S. and 2013 looks promising for its all its businesses south of the border.
The company's personal and commercial lending in Canada, which represents approximately 44% of annual revenue, is still the company's bread and butter and remains steady. But the U.S. division should add in some nice growth. All in all, I like BMO's prospects.
Bank of Nova Scotia
Bank of Nova Scotia (BNS) is actually my personal favorite, though, because of its focus on non-U.S. markets. But despite the bank's push into Latin America and other emerging nations, its biggest splash in the quarter was the purchase of ING Bank of Canada for C$3.13 billion -- a brilliant acquisition that strengthens its domestic banking operations moving forward into 2013.
I tend to think of the Canadian banking segment as the weak link in a very strong operation, but the truth is it contributes its fair share. Year over year, the fourth quarter saw revenues and net income increase 6% and 15% respectively, while its net income of C$481 million represents 32% of its overall profits. The addition of ING solidifies its position as the third biggest bank in Canada, while big things should come from Latin America as well -- especially in personal and commercial lending growth.
In 2013, BNS expects its earnings per share to grow 5% to 10% with its net interest margin holding steady around 2.3%. With a current yield of 4.1%, you're getting a very stable bank that beats any of the big American outfits.
Toronto Dominion Bank
The biggest Canadian bank in terms of its operations in the U.S. is Toronto Dominion Bank (TD), which just purchased Epoch Investment Partners (EPHC) for $668 million. The move adds $24 billion in assets under management to its existing asset base of $207 billion, but more importantly, gives it a stronger team in U.S. and global equities. Bill Priest, Epoch's founder, has been a successul investment manager for almost 50 years. This is a great pick-up for the bank.
However, its overall business leaves a lot to be desired. It's adjusted diluted earnings per share in the fourth quarter were C$1.83 compared to C$1.75 Q4 2011. That's a 4.6% increase year-over-year, making it the only bank to deliver single-digit earnings growth.
So what went wrong? Barclays (BCS) analyst John Aiken noted that TD's domestic loan business experienced increased provisions for credit losses in the quarter -- something to be aware of because other Canadian banks are experiencing similar activity.
Still, I see this quarter as a rare time when TD has taken its foot off the gas. Expect it to fix that in 2013.
The final three
Royal Bank (RY), Canada's largest bank, continues to perform as well. Its fourth quarter earnings per share (EPS) increased 23% to C$1.25, while its return on equity was 160 basis points higher year-over-year. Personal and commercial banking, which accounted for 54% of its overall net income in Q4, delivered a 9% increase in net income year over year. The only fly in the ointment was a higher provision for credit losses in its Canadian business lending operation. Other than that, this is one rock-solid bank.
Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce's (CM) enjoyed a 15% increase in Q4 net income to C$2.04 per share -- nothing to sneeze at. The only downer in CIBC's report was the 5% or C$28 million decline in its retail and business banking division, which accounts for two-thirds of its overall profit. Otherwise, 2013 looks to be another strong year for the bank.
Finally National Bank (NTIOF) is the smallest of the six. Its goal is to grow its business outside its home province of Quebec through acquisitions and organic development. Its fourth quarter earnings per share gained 15% year-over-year. More importantly, it was the only bank of the six to raise its quarterly dividend, hiking it 5% to 83 cents per share. It now yields 4.3%, putting it in the middle of the dividend pack.This could be the bank that surprises in 2013.
As of this writing, Will Ashworth did not own a position in any of the aforementioned securities.

Kyle Larson poised for stardom in NASCARBy DAN GELSTON
the associated press | February 19,2013AP PHOTO
Auto racing driver Kyle Larson talks with reporters during NASCAR media day at Daytona International Speedway, Thursday in Daytona Beach, Fla.DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. Kyle Larson just may be the next great NASCAR driver.
Scratch that.
Make it, will be the next star in the sports top series. Says who? Just ask Tony Stewart.
I guarantee it, Stewart said. If not, you can take everything I own, because Im that confident. Its not a matter of if, its when.
Thats a bold prediction from a three-time Cup champion not known for hyperbole.
Stewart, though, has every reason to be impressed. So are many of NASCARs elite drivers, from Jeff Gordon to Kasey Kahne, who are wowed by the natural speed, talent and versatility flashed by the 20-year-old Larson. New cars, new series, new tracks. None of it has slowed down Larson from the fast track to stardom.
He won a low-level NASCAR developmental series championship last season, the first time he raced in stock cars, and had three top-10s in his four Truck Series starts.
He raced all over the world in any series where he could find a ride. Larson counted 92 races in 2011 and 123 races in 2012.
The past two years have been pretty crazy, Larson said. Ive been running different cars, it seems, every night. I kept busy. I had a lot of fun, won a lot of races. I won a lot of big races, too.
Larson won again Monday night, taking a short-track race at Daytona International Speedway in the Battle at the Beach. Hell compete in another short-track race on Tuesday night, then take a big step up when he drives in Saturdays Nationwide Series race.
Oh, and thats after he finished second in the ARCA race, making him one of the busiest drivers of Speedweeks. He even found time Sunday night to win a USAC midget race at nearby New Smyrna Speedway. In case you missed it, (at) KyleLarsonRacin tweeted video of the race.
Larson is leading the way of a new generation of young stars ready to make an impact in NASCAR. Chase Elliott, Darrell Wallace Jr., and Dylan Kwasniewski are just a few of the prospects set to take over as todays crop of 40-something Cup drivers inch closer toward retirement. Theyve raced their way through NASCARs Drive for Diversity program or been pegged as members of the Next 9 a select group of up-and-coming drivers.
Its more than just young blood theyre adding to NASCAR but different bloodlines.
Wallace will drive in the Truck Series, making him the fourth full-time black driver in NASCAR history. Larsons mother is Japanese and his father is of Native American descent.
Larson openly talked of wanting to usher in a new fan base in a sport that has long suffered on the track and in the stands from a lack of diversity.
He just needs a crash course on Japanese: All I say is, `Sayonara, he said, laughing.
But hes serious about sparking interest in auto racing in new cultures.
Its the greatest sport in the world and a lot of people havent been here to experience it, he said. If I can get Japanese-Americans interested in the sport, I think it would be good for me and NASCAR.
As long as I can keep running up front, Ill catch their eye a little bit. They might come to watch the races and meet me and walk around the garage area.
Larson, locked into a development contract with Earnhardt Ganassi Racing, put the sport on notice in 2011 when he won races in three different series on the same night at Stewart-owned Eldora Speedway. He moved on to a ride with Rev Racing and was the first series champion out of NASCARs Drive for Diversity program.
Larson has talked at length of wanting to pattern his career after drivers like Stewart and Kahne, who started their careers on dirt tracks in open wheel cars.
Stewart turned down an offer by owner Roger Penske to return to his open wheel roots and run in this years Indianapolis 500. Larson said hed love the chance to drive in IndyCars signature race some time down the road.
Id like to run the Indy 500 someday, for sure, he said. I think being with Chip Ganassi Racing, you have that chance. Id also like to run the 24-hour race at Daytona. Being with Chip Ganassi, you get those options if youre doing well and he likes you.
Whats not to like?
Gordon went on TV last year and said, he makes me look like nothing, at his age. Gordon, the four-time Cup champion, is friends with Larson and texts him after every win. Thats a lot of texts.
Its definitely been beneficial for my career getting my name on Speed Channel and every Sunday on `Speed Report, Larson said. Its been really big with Jeff Gordon talking about me quite a bit. Hopefully, I can keep running up front and keep those guys talking about me.
But NASCAR history is littered with cant miss prospects who missed. Joey Logano was called Sliced Bread, as in, greatest thing since, when he was just a teen and replaced Stewart at Joe Gibbs Racing. Only 22 and with two Cup wins, Logano has already moved on to Penske Racing looking for a fresh start after failing to live up to the massive hype at JGR.
Larson understands there are no guarantees in auto racing. But he feels hes ready.
I havent felt any pressure yet, he said. But I can see how people would think I might feel pressure.

Part C: Youth in Communities
Youth in Communities funding is provided directly to individual services to deliver early intervention, prevention and diversionary initiatives in the Northern Territory for young Indigenous people who are at risk of: substance misuse, suicide or intentional self-harm, entering or re-entering the criminal justice system and disengaging with education, training or employment. Services are directed towards improving life choices and outcomes for young people through engaging youth in positive activities that improve resilience and promote pathways to better health and wellbeing, education and employment.
Services promote strong peer and family relationships, improved personal capacity, self-esteem and resilience, improved social connections, reduced isolation, improved support and educational outcomes. They also assist young people who experience barriers to accessing other community resources.
Organisations are funded to meet community needs, building on community strengths, organisations' networks and resources, and making use of strong evidence of what works in early intervention and prevention. Youth in Communities activities allow for tailored approaches at a local level so communities can develop flexible and innovative approaches that best reflect their circumstances.
