Karl Towns Could Land at Kentucky in 2014 (UPDATED)
Karl Towns could land on Kentucky's campus as early as the fall of 2014.
"It's a done deal," a source close to Towns's recruiting process told BustingBrackets.com of the player's intentions to pledge to Kentucky in his Dec. 4 announcement at St. Joe's-Metuchen High School. "His decision has been made up and the announcement in three weeks is just a formality at this point."
Kentucky is certainly considered the favorite because the 6-foot-11 Towns played for Wildcats coach John Calipari and assistant Orlando Antigua on the Dominican Republic National Team this summer, and the family has a strong bond with those coaches.
Towns also attended the Maryland-Kentucky game — won by the Wildcats — last Friday at Barclays Center.
"Everything points in that direction — as far as making the decision early and spending the summer playing with Coach Calipari," Jerry Meyer of 24/7 Sports told Ben Roberts. "I would be extremely, extremely surprised if it's not Kentucky."
Still, Karl Towns Sr. told SNY.tv his son has strong relationships with all the coaches recruiting him.
The father said numerous schools are on the list, including Kentucky, Duke, Florida, Michigan State, N.C. State, North Carolina, Villanova, West Virginia, Rutgers and Seton Hall.
"Karl is comfortable with every coach that he met," his father said. "There's no difference level just because it's Cal. Nobody's jumping out. He has the same level of respect for every coach."
Wherever he goes, Towns, who turned 17 Thursday, could move from 2015 to 2014 sometime after he announces his college choice Dec. 4.
"It's something that he's thinking about," Towns Sr. said. "It's something he's considering."
Jerry Smith, the AD at St. Joe's, made similar comments to Ben Roberts earlier, pointing out that Towns is a 4.0 student and that the school has access to college courses which could expedite Towns's course of study.
"I think it's going to be this year, next year and gone," Smith said.
Just this year, top prospects Andrew Wiggins (uncommitted), Dakari Johnson (uncommitted) Noah Vonleh (Indiana) and Wayne Selden (Kansas) reclassified to 2013 from 2014.
Now, Towns could be up next.

When does Sanchez get cut?
Alex Marvez says Bucs are @Buccaneers stepping up efforts to trade CB Darrelle Revis, source tells @FOXSports1
Well, I guess the Jets are going to be getting only a 4th round pick, because I'm thinking Licht is either going to trade Revis or cut him by Thursday 4pm.
49ers dropping Carlos Rogers ? Him and donte Whitner roaming our backfield?
Cimini kicks Holmes right between the legs, OUCH! http://espn.go.com/blog/new-york/jets/post/_/id/36005/analysis-holmes-is-gone-at-last
Bradysucks just had to talk up Hank's name.
I cant wait for tomorrow after 4pm! Idzik will draw first blood. In Idzik we trust!
Byrd asking for 9mil a yr? Pay him
Don't know how true it is but I read on rotoworld that Miami has contacted Howard's camp and are interested in him. Ut oh!
Bring back Revis to the JETS!!!
@jimjets According to PFT it sounds like Vontae Davis might be teaming up with Vernon Davis in San Francisco.
@jake100 That's him being petty (and unprofessional). He's just mad because Tone shut the media out, and now they want to get some getback. This is a prime example of why Cimini can't get ahead as a writer/journalist. He's going to end up retiring from basically the same position he had for 30 years.
@williamg1 "My name is my name" - Hank
@jake100 If Verner and Howard are not immediately en route to New York the moment the clock hits 4:00:00 then something's wrong.
@jake100 Bent's like 9 hours ahead, so maybe he can find out who the Jets signed early in the AM.
I told you cats about the Miami thing. I hope it falls through!
"Word amongst insiders is the New York Jets are going hard after cornerback Vontae Davis." - Tony Pauline
@williamg1 @jake100 This is good though. At this point, Cimini and Mehta have jumped the hypothetical shark here. That Olbermann nut-crushing on Mehta was the beginning of the end for these two. Now everyone sees what they're trying to do, and only lame, mouth-breathing ESPN trolls actually believe what they say. It's good that these players (Holmes, Scott) caught on to them and gave them what they deserve. Maybe now with Idzik running the show, they'll start to get their sh-- together when they realize that they're both being fed stories of nothing.
@williamg1 @jake100 Just because Holmes is gone and will no longer be reminding of this fact, we shouldn't forget how unprofessional, hypocritical, jealous and unreasonable some of these guys have been.
@williamg1 @jake100 I am not getting involved, lol But Holmes was a royal pain in the rump!!!!!
@J. Smooth @jake100 People will be complaining by five past ... happens every year!
@williamg1 @jake100 Only four hours ahead actually. Around lunchtime cool with you guys?
@jake100 @j3tsfan29 i usually dont get mad when football players take the most money they can because their careers are short and contracts aint guarenteed but i will be a little pissed at howard...i feel like we took this guy off the trashpile and we couldnt get a deal done with him before tomorrow
If he has visions of Vontae Island, playing for Rex is the way to go. Sounds like the Jets are definitely in the mix for him.
@Monty Granito there was a report earlier today saying he was close to resigning with the colts but then i just read something from an hour ago that dont expect him to be a colt...i would love to have davis or verner both 25 and heading into their prime
@bklyndude @harold@jimjets
Rex helps make CB's great. So why wouldn't you come play for the Jets? Playing with your brother is fine. Having a chance to become great is something altogether different.
Not saying he will or won't but I don't think that will be the deciding factor.
Which is what I would do. there are at least 8 CB who would be huge upgrades over Cro last year. So I would cast a wide net and snag who whoever offers the best bang for the buck. No need to overpay for a slightly better player.
@harold @bklyndude @jimjets But playing with his brother on a good team makes more sense, doesn't it ?
I wouldn't mind him coming to the Jets, just more likely to S.F. if not back to Colts.
@harold @bklyndude@jimjets http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1956721-why-the-indianapolis-colts-absolutely-must-re-sign-vontae-davis
it would make sense...Verner is not really a press corner...Davis is
The Jets are going hard after 10 different CBs.
@rstysanchz @Bent @williamg1 @jake100 They CRITICIZED him for visiting the troops. Said he should have been working out or something.
@Bent @williamg1 @jake100 funny cimini mehta and myers never talked about holmes visiting the troops at a base in germany or hanging out with a cancer patient
"Not worth responding to"
Look at Joey taking a Santonio Holmes approach to this conversation. Classy?
@Bent @jake100 @williamg1
Not worth responding to.Comparing Holmes to Sanchez class wise is silly.Holmes was thrown out of a huddle for goodness sakes and gave up on his team! No one was thrown under the bus more than Mark but he didn't pull the diva antics of hlomes, he stayed classy. That is why he will find work and Holmes will struggle.
@jake100 @Bent @williamg1 Which was the classy part? Him getting his ass out on a drunken video, sulking over losing reps in practice or screaming at Idzik because he blamed him for the fact that he didn't get rid of the ball quick enough against the Giants and got himself injured?
Seems about as bad as Holmes when you boil it down.
I wont go there, lol
@jake100 So that means you excuse you scummy they've been? They antagonized Bart Scott, one of the best Jet players we've had since Woody bought the team, all because he wouldn't give them the time of day for their relentless sh-- stirring.
They have tried at every turn to create rifts that don't exist so they can write about the fallout. They don't deserve to be respected, not until they decide to show the team and players some.
@jake100 @Bent @williamg1 No, Cimini is still there, polluting the press room.
@Bent @jake100 @williamg1 Look what they did to Sanchez, but he remained classy, that is the difference.
I am just glad this malcontent is gone.
@jake100 @williamg1 Nonsense, Joey. He showed them the respect they deserved.
@Bent @J. Smooth @jake100 Are you saying no press conferences scheduled for Tuesday during rush hour.....damn.
@williamg1 @Bent @jake100 Okay then, WARM UP THE WAFFLES!
@Bent @williamg1 @jake100 Hey now, I'm in California.
@rstysanchz @jake100 It will eventually all come out.
And the jets would have no problem trashing him, 8f he doesn't play up to par .
Never worry yourself over another mans money
@jake100 i know if we lose him that means we drafting oline at 18...but for 2 weeks now im surprised we couldnt get a deal done i would love to know if its idzick being cheap or howard being a little unreasonable to the team that took him in when he was an after thought
@rstysanchz @jake100 @j3tsfan29
Regardless, with all the questions on the Oline, he was our only consistent player last season. His loss will be bigger than fans think. Lets hope he signs.

Got some lavender, now what do I do with it?
I went to a great little restaurant for lunch last week and in your birth month, they give you a free bag of herbs. Usually in September, it's marjoram. But this year I got lavender. I've NEVER cooked with lavender before. Does anyone have a recipe?
Lavender is grown quite widely near me and looks beautiful in the fields. I also have a nice bush in my garden and have made this with it:
They tasted very good but I am still wary of cooking too much with it as it has a tendency to remind me of perfume and lavender bags used to scent clothes drawers!
However, if you're further inspired you could also try this website - the shortbread sounds interesting:
I'd love to know how you get on!
I make a Lavender Caramel ice Cream that is very good.
Lavender Caramel Ice Cream
makes 1 1/2 quarts
1 1/4 cups + 2 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoons + 2 teaspoons lavender flowers
1 1/2 teaspoons water
3 cups whole milk
3 tablespoons crème fraîche or heavy cream
1 vanilla bean, split lengthwise
6 large egg yolks
1. In a small, heavy saucepan, combine 2 tablespoons of the sugar, 1 tablespoon and 1 teaspoon of lavender and 1 1/2 teaspoon of water. Cook over moderate heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar dissolves and the mixture dries (2 to 3 minutes). Transfer to a plate to cool, then grind to a fine powder in a spice grinder or a food processor fitted with the metal blade. Set aside.
2. In a large heavy saucepan, combine the milk, crème fraîche, vanilla bean and remaining 1 1/4 cups sugar and 1/2 teaspoon lavender. Cook over moderate heat, stirring frequently, until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is hot (about 8 minutes).
3. Remove from heat, cover and let the mixture steep for 15 minutes. Strain the milk through a fine-mesh sieve and return it to the saucepan.
4. In a large bowl, whisk the egg yolks until blended. Gradually whisk in one-third of the warmed milk mixture in a thin stream, then whisk the mixture back into the remaining milk in the saucepan. Stir in the reserved lavender powder.
5. Cook over moderately low heat, stirring constantly, until the custard lightly coats the back of a spoon (about 5 to 7 minutes). BE CAREFUL NOT LET THE MIXTURE BOIL!
6. Immediately remove from the heat and strain the custard into a medium bowl. Set the bowl in a larger bowl of ice and water, and let cool to room temperature, stirring occasionally. (Or, you can use the refrigerator [or freezer]). Cover and refrigerate until cold, at least 2 hours, or overnight.
7. Pour the custard into an ice cream freezer and freeze according to the manufacturer's instructions.
I also use the green part of the plant as one would use rosemary. It's really tasty in a roast chicken.
Lavendar Lemon biscotti is a nice treat.
The key to cooking with lavendar is resisting the urge to overuse it. Too much imparts a soapy taste. : ( Better to use too little and then need to make it again to decide what is the right amount for you. :)
This is the recipe I started with:
re: weezieduzzit
hey, that looks like a great recipe to start with...pretty simple...since i've never worked with lavender before. thanks!
We love this one; it's a tweaked version of Claudia Fleming's Lemon Lavender poundcake. The flavors complement each other well and it's so much nicer with more tartness to the lemon. I can paraphrase the actual recipe if you prefer that one:
Lavender Lemon Pound Cake
adapted from Claudia Fleming's The Last Course
(1 (9 x 5-inch) loaf, 8 Servings)
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter
1 Tablespoon dried lavender
5 large eggs
1 cup sugar
1 1/2 cup plus 2 Tablespoons cake flour
1/2 tsp salt
zest from about 3 lemons (or 3 heaping Tablespoons)
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup strained fresh lemon juice
2 Tablespoons water
3 Tablespoons dried lavender
Cake Directions
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter and flour a 9 x 5-inch loaf pan. In a small saucepan, melt the butter with 1 tablespoon of the lavender. Let the mixture steep for 10 minutes, then strain, discarding the lavender. Set aside to cool.
Using an electric mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat the eggs and 1 cup of the sugar until thick and pale, about 5 minutes.
In a bowl, sift together the flour and salt. Using a whisk, fold the lemon zest and a third of the flour mixture into the eggs until thoroughly combined. Fold in the rest of the flour in two batches.
In a separate bowl, whisk 1 cup of the batter with the melted butter and the vanilla. Add this to the remaining batter and fold to combine. Pour the batter into the prepared pan.
Bake the cake until a tester inserted into the middle comes out clean, 40 to 45 minutes. If the top of the cake seems to be getting overly browned before the center is set, cover with foil and continue baking.
Syrup Directions
In a medium saucepan, combine the remaining 1/2 cup of sugar, the lemon juice, 1/4 cup water, and 3 tablespoons of lavender. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook, stirring, until the sugar dissolves.
Transfer the cake to a wire rack. Using a cake tester or skewer, poke the cake all over. Brush the loaf with half the syrup and let cool for 10 minutes. Invert the cake onto the rack, remove the pan, and brush syrup over the bottom and sides of the cake. Re-invert the cake and brush with the remaining syrup. Let cool completely.
re: karykat
Love lavender shortbread. And lavender scones.
Also it works well in savory. I have the Lavender Cookbook and like the Shrimp with Lavender Honey Marinade (lavender honey, lavender buds, olive oil, vinegar, lemon, lime and tangerine juice).
Also like it with pork chops as a marinade.
(I'd post more, but screaming baby is pulling me away - but if you can find that cookbook, lots of great ideas)
I love lavender. I put lavender oil on a small handkerchief and keep it under my pillow; a few good sniffs and I'm asleep.
Lavender-orange scones are delicious, I used to make them for catered events and the guests couldn't guess what that different flavor was. Add 1 tsp minced dried lavender flowers and 2 tsp orange zest to a basic buttermilk scone recipe; add currants for extra flavor. If you make scones with regular milk, steep the lavender in the hot milk first, then strain. Let the milk cool before using.
Make lavender sugar, as you would vanilla sugar; in a jar with a tight lid, wrap two tablespoons dried lavender up in a square of cheesecloth as a sachet and cover with 1 cup white sugar, cover and let set for a few weeks, shaking the jar occasionally. Remove the lavender sachet. Nice with tea or use the sugar for sprinkling on sugar cookies, or use the lavender sugar in the cookie dough.
For lavender creme brulee, use 1 tablespoon dried lavender to 4 cups heavy cream, a pinch of fine salt, 8 egg yolks and 1/2 cup sugar. Bring the cream to a simmer, remove from burner, steep the lavender in the hot cream for 5 minutes, then strain through wire mesh strainer. Beat egg yolks and sugar until light, add strained cream slowly to eggs/sugar and blend, portion into creme brulee cups and bake in hot water bath in 300º oven until set but jiggly in the center; time depends on your oven and size of custard cup; this can take an hour or less. Cool in water bath and refrigerate well before serving. Brulee top of custard with lavender or granulated sugar before serving.
I make lavender scented creme anglaise for serving with fresh fruit, especially berries or plums.
A lavender flavored simple syrup 1:1 cups ratio sugar to water, 4 teaspoon dried buds, add a little honey if you like, is nice on fruit salads and in iced tea. Simmer water, sugar and lavender for 3-4 minutes, until sugar is dissolved and your kitchen is filled with the lovely aroma. Strain into jar and refrigerate.
Speaking of drinks, steep a tablespoon of dried lavender in a bottle of decent gin for a week, strain and use it for a very refreshing gin and tonic.
Mix up your own herbes de Provence with lavender, marjoram, thyme, rosemary, fennel seed and summer savory in equal proportions. Add basil if you like. Great with pork, lamb, chicken, roasted vegetables, eggs, breads, fish, blended into soft cheeses and used to marinate olives, whatever.
The one big rule with lavender, which is a strongly scented herb, is less is more; use it as a background note, like vanilla; remember that and you'll enjoy cooking with it.
The Herbfarm Cookbook by Jerry Traunfeld and The Lavender Cookbook by Sharon Shipley might be worth looking into for more recipes.
re: bushwickgirl
The creme brulee sounds delicious, I think I'd love it. Thanks for posting that (ESPECIALLY the pillow hint!)
A question for the experienced lavender chefs: do you use dried or fresh? I love the smell of lavender, but so far have only enjoyed it as a perfume. For some reason, I always pictured lavender fresh when it was used in cooking, but then last week I saw a little bag of dried in the spice section of the Mexican grocery near my house. Would this be appropriate for all of these delicious-sounding recipes everyone is posting (most refer simply to "lavender flowers") or would it be better to try to find the fresh stuff? Or is the fresh stuff even findable? Or edible?
That ice cream sounds amazing, by the way.
re: BananaBirkLarsen
Fresh is both findable and edible, but we're talking mostly about dried flower buds here, which is much more easily findable. Those who cook with fresh most likely grow their own.
Make sure the product is marked culinary lavender; there are many varieties of lavender, some less acceptable for cooking, as they are more perfumy tasting and have a stronger aroma. English Angustifolia lavender and Provence lavender (the better of the two) are two very good culinary varieties. I would get it from a reputable packer/vendor/spice shop.
I keep it in the freezer, well wrapped.
If you do use fresh, the ratio is 1T. fresh:1 t. dried, about 1/3 the quantity, like other strongly flavored dried herbs.
re: bushwickgirl
Thank you! This is exactly what I needed to know.
The lavender I saw at the Mexican market was definitely intended for culinary use, but cost less than a dollar for the packet. Probably not the highest quality lavender, but I might pick some up and experiment with it.
To add a savory dish to this thread, David Leite had a wonderful sounding chicken breast with lavender and honey in his blog this am, from Purple Citrus & Sweet Perfume:
There are a few more savory dishes containing lavender at the bottom of the link page as well. Happy eating.
re: kattyeyes
Ah, a Stoli Vanil martini with lavender syrup, it's bit early in the a.m. but I want one now.
Katty, can you post your recipe for the gelato? Thanks!
re: bushwickgirl
In all honesty, I like the way I make gelato NOW better than the way I made it last year. The original recipe is nice enough (and on Katty's Kitchen), but I really, really LOVE making it with whole milk, a touch of cream and a can of sweetened condensed milk. It's much, much smoother and creamier. Can I direct you to my stracciatella recipe, then modify as follows? That's what I did to make fresh mint stracciatella this month!
(omit chocolate chunks!)
1 cup fresh mint leaves
1 tablespoon dried lavender (or 2 tablespoons fresh lavender)
½ a vanilla bean, split and scraped, rather than a whole bean
After the first part of the process where small bubbles form at the side of the pan, remove from heat, cover and let steep for 30 minutes.
Strain liquid using a fine-mesh sieve, pressing on the leaves to extract all the liquid. Then follow the rest of the recipe. :)
If that's just jibberish, hit me back and I'll try again! I don't have it all written in one place. It's on pieces of paper and in my head. HA HA!
re: kattyeyes
I got it, thanks so much, my dear katty. Here's the link to your blog's original recipe, so posters can see the whole process:
re: pine time
I think it would be cool to try making your favorite shortbread with the flavored sugar. I already registered my vote above for making lavender brownies with it. AHM NOM NOM NOM! ;)
re: kattyeyes
Thanks. In fact, after I posted, found a recipe on-line for lavendar shortbreads. Will have to do a quality check baking this weekend before considering for gifts!
re: pine time
There ya go--if the shortbread recipe passes QA, please share! :)
Lavender infused ganache (which you can then use in a cake, macaron, chocolates etc).
Just as you would infuse anything in milk or cream, infuse the lavender. Sift it out then use the milk or cream in your recipe.
Lavender pairs great with caramels or chocolate.

My first week in my apprenticeship + features!Journal Entry: Sat Sep 6, 2014, 7:59 AM
Hello, everyone!
On September, 1st, I began my apprenticeship as a licensed practical nurse. Standing up at 6AM after vacations in which I slept until noon is my daily routine now. The great thing about standing up early is that my boyfriend also has to do that, since he does the apprenticeship with me!
The first week dealt with many things, such as rights and duties, and organizing stuff. But we also began with the lessons! To give you a little insight, we learned how exactly the skin looks like (with words like Epidermis, Dermis and Subcutis).
To sum it up: I am happy about it and hope next week will be as awesome as the first!

Being insulted seems to be normal on deviantART-.-Journal Entry: Tue Aug 26, 2014, 11:54 PM
Hi, everyone.
This deviant posted a meme, which definitely belongs to 9GAG. When I told him, he started insulting me.
Watch the post:
He calls me a nazi because I am German and that I call myself God of Photography because the only thing I do is holding my camera towards a flower and clicking a simple button. And I would never get a job, by the way!
What a shame that I have a real job and do not claim myself as God of photography..
Is he banned now? Because I cannot post any comments to his page now.
What do you think?

Thank you
After seeing all the comments to my poll...Journal Entry: Tue Aug 5, 2014, 1:26 AM
... I feel flattered how many of you are still actually here!
I am sorry myself to be not online that often. I am beginning an apprenticeship in September to become a nurse, and get to take pictures not that often..
When I moved to my own flat with my boyfriend, I moved from a kind of village-life towards a life in a big city. There's only one park nearby which is made for relaxing on the lawn.. So there are no flowers, no bugs, nothing amazing to take pictures of. At least for me as a macro photographer. That's why I take pictures once in a while and try to upload old ones which I found in my archives.
I already considered doing some city-related art, like an "a-thousand-strangers" project or so, but when I think of my apprenticeship again (or my shyness concerning new people) I feel uncomfortable doing this. It seems like I will never complete this project. Thousand strangers?? That's a bunch.
Other projects like 52-weeks or 365-days is not available too, since my lack of time is quite huge.
Do you have any ideas? Otherwise I would just stick to my normal pattern here.
By the way: I am painting my wall right now, and I hope it will turn out great

I will never let photography go!Journal Entry: Sat May 24, 2014, 9:04 AM
This journal begins with a title that totally describes what I will be writing about now. I still cannot believe how my journey started, and how I went. I gained fans, I gained friends, and I got awards. I learned so much from other artists and nature. It's awesome to see yourself improving, but now I feel like being in an inspirational hole again. Stress is catching up again.. My future is changing again (I must decide between beoming a doctor or becoming a nurse), and I have been to the hospital because they suspected multiple sclerosis...But it has not been proven. Summing it up, life is strikingly stressing right now.
But everytime I see the sun shining and take my camera with me I feel a bit more relaxed. Every negative aspect seems to be thrown away. And the best thing about it all is that I can share my passion with my boyfriend.
We already planned to buy new lenses when we both begin our apprenticeship. And of course I want to upgrade to a full frame someday. So my plans are to stay active in the world of photography. The only problem is that I cannot upload that much since I do not have much free time and a stressing life currently.
That's why I am so sorry for being so silent here. But I love deviantART. I love the community, I love the pieces of art I find between so much porn and ponies.
And I am thankful that you still are with me. And I hope you will also do that in the future. Thank you for being on the same journey with me.

Best of Photography IJournal Entry: Sat Mar 8, 2014, 10:33 AM
Here's a little collection with the best of photography I have found recently!
I hope you enjoyed it
A big sorry!Journal Entry: Fri Feb 28, 2014, 5:37 AM
Heyho, guys.
This journal is created to you all to apologize for my current hiatus. My life has been changed in such an immense way and I still learn how to manage it.
For those of you who want to know: I am living together with my boyfriend for one month already. Moving out from your parents is a great step which needs to be thought over and over before you really take it. I took it and I am happy I did it.
Of course the first weeks were pure chaos, but now everything works quite fine for Sascha and me.
My photography is lacking a bit, though.. Life is stressful, especially because I have a job and a home to manage, but I am still trying to take some pictures, though. Be prepared, I am editing pictures right now. Who knows, maybe new images are coming soon?
By the way: I wrote an article about nature photography, my passion for nature photography and my techniques! The book in which I am is presumed to be released in March, 2014.
Last but not least, I want to thank you for all the birthday wishes! I'm 20 now and feel great with it
I hope you are fine, guys!
Moving out from my Mom tomorrowJournal Entry: Fri Jan 31, 2014, 12:07 PM
Hi, guys!
In not even 12 hours I am moving out from my parent's home to live together with my boyfriend. That's why I will be inactive..
Once again, I want to apologize for my abscence here. I am still trying to visit dA everyday.
Thank you for still being with me!
Happy New Year + four simple resolutionsJournal Entry: Thu Jan 2, 2014, 1:02 PM
Hello, guys!
I hope your New Year's Eve was great, and I wish you a happy new year!
I had a wonderful day with my boyfriend and in the evening we went dancing together.
What are your resolutions? I bet many of you do the standards like loosing fat, getting fit and stop smoking or eating healthier.
Since I know I will never be that motivated to lose any fat or eat any healthier, I made four simple resolutions.
1. I am moving together with my boyfriend. I want to be able to pay it all time and make my boyfriend happy.
2. I want to balance my job and photography more.
3. I want to start studying or apprenticeship.
4. I want to be happier than in 2013.
Rock on!
My first 2 days in the hospitalJournal Entry: Wed Dec 18, 2013, 2:30 AM
Hi, everybody!
Wow, I never thought working in a hospital is such a great thing. Well, when I had my arm broken years ago, I was angry because I had to wait about three hours. And now, standing on the other side, I see why people have to wait so long. It is such a great thing and you have to walk some kilometers a day!
8 hours a day is also a feeling I never knew. Sleeping after work is the greatest thing ever.
Unfortunately my photography is suffering under my current situation. In the mornings I go to work when it's dark, and leave it when it's dark....
But it's fun!
Hell, DDs are getting more and more uselessJournal Entry: Tue Dec 10, 2013, 2:14 AM
And I do exactly mean that.
It seems like nobody looks for quality these days. The DDs from the last three days are horrible in my opinion. Of course, there are some exceptions, but hell, it surprised me when I saw these.
What do you think about DDs?

Sophie Kinsella
Adult Fiction KINSELL
Summary: "This expensive, glossy world is where I've been headed all along. Limos and flowers; waxed eyebrows and designer clothes from Barneys. These are my people; this is where I'm meant to be." -Becky Bloomwood Universally beloved by readers, Sophie Kinsella's national bestseller, Confessions of a Shopaholic , introduced the irrepressible one-woman shopping phenomenon, Becky Bloomwood. Now, in this hilarious follow-up, Becky and her credit cards are headed across the Atlantic.... With her shopping excesses (somewhat) in check and her career as a TV financial guru thriving, Becky's biggest problem seems to be tearing her entrepreneur boyfriend, Luke, away from work for a romantic country weekend. And worse, figuring out how to "pack light." But packing takes on a whole new meaning when Luke announces he's moving to New York for business-and he asks Becky to go with him! Before you can say "Prada sample sale," Becky has landed in the Big Apple, home of Park Avenue penthouses and luxury department stores. Surely it's only a matter of time until she becomes an American TV celebrity, and she and Luke are the toast of Gotham society. Nothing can stand in their way, especially with Becky's bills miles away in London. But then an unexpected disaster threatens her career prospects, her relationship with Luke, and her available credit line! Shopaholic Takes Manhattan -but will she have to return it?

Quantum Tunnelling in Enzyme-Catalysed Reactions
28 April 2009
In recent years, there has been an explosion in knowledge and research associated with the field of enzyme catalysis and hydrogen-tunneling. The School of Chemistry's Professor Rudolf Allemann together with Professor Nigel Scrutton of the University of Manchester have edited and contributed to an exciting new book that brings together the foremost practitioners in the field. This up-to-date account of a rapidly developing field sits at the interface between biology, chemistry and physics. It covers computational, kinetic and structural analysis of tunnelling and the synergy in combining these methods (with a major focus on H-tunnelling reactions in enzyme systems).
The book starts with a brief overview of proton and electron transfer history by Nobel Laureate, Professor Rudolph A. Marcus of the California Institute of Technology. The reader is then guided through chapters covering almost every aspect of reactions in enzyme catalysis ranging from descriptions of the relevant quantum theory and quantum/classical theoretical methodology to the description of experimental results. The theoretical interpretation of these large systems includes both quantum mechanical and statistical mechanical computations, as well as simple more approximate models.

Not too long ago I bought a Remington 700 SPS Tactical 308 Win to have it re-barreled into a 22-250. I had a Hart 1-8" twist 26" barrel put on it so I could shoot the heavier lead free bullets through it at coyotes. The guy that did the barrel swap also lengthened the throat so I could seat the bullets out farther to give me a longer C.O.A.L.The next time I take a picture of this rifle it will have Krylon paint all over it.I shot 3 different bullets through it today using Varget, Benchmark and IMR 4064. I used one type of powder for each different bullet and I reloaded three different powder charges for each bullet, so I ended up shooting at 9 paper plates. It looks to me like this rifle is going to be a shooter. All 9 loads shot well under 1" groups and some of the groups were under 1/2".This is the group with 50 gr Varmint Grenades.This one is 60 gr V-max's.This is really what I wanted out of this new faster twisted 22-250, a good group with the Barnes 55 gr MPG bullets.The bad news for the day was that I found out my brand new Leupold VXII 4 X 12 scope is getting sent back. The elevation adjustment did not work at all. I turned the adjustment all the way up and then all the way down and the groups didn't move at all.
My new 1-8" twist Hart Barrel 22-250 shoots good.

Nice rifle Bob! Look like the fast twist is the way to go for the non-lead stuff. Good shooting!

Posted 12 April 2011 - 07:16 AM
That 1in8 twist barrel is the way to go Bob. If you have to shoot the nonlead stuff you need a twist like that to make them shoot. I'm sure that allot of rifles will see new barrels on them unless we can get rid of the no lead laws. That's a good shooter considering they are your first loads to go through that gun.

I put a 1:10" twist, Ppacnor Supermatch barrel on one of my 22.250s, I now wish now that I had gone to an 8" twist for the 80 grain match bullets. The 69 grainers just don't buck the wind as well at 1,000 yards.

I am wearing my lucky black suit today with my lucky black tie that has different sized circles on it. I hope it brings me luck today. I think for a moment about last game; yes, I played pretty damn good that game, and yes, I was wearing this same lucky outfit. And then everything slows. That's all it takes to stop worrying and fussing about "what if's" and "what have you's". I take a deep breath as I hang my jacket in my locker, and I know it and embrace it: today is going to be a good day, a good game, a safe game, a lucky game, a fun game, my game. I keep pumping positive affirmations into my brain. I'm going to be an impact player today. I will fight today. I will score today. I will be my very best today. I will be excellent.
Now I'm in my warm up clothes: faded black shorts, knee-high sanitary socks, and a faded gold tee shirt that has one block-lettered word printed across the chest: BRUINS. And I look in the mirror, and I'm proud to wear it. Honored to wear that name, and know that tonight I must do my very best to help my team win. That's all I can do today. I've practiced and trained and put the right fuel into my body, mind, and spirit. I've covered all the bases. And now it's time to let it all pour out, to do what I do. To do what I have always done and have always loved to do. I get to play this gorgeous game tonight, and lay it on the line. Tonight I will give it everything I have. I owe at least that much. I hope and pray for the best outcome and for safety and courage. I feel a swelling of emotion, aggression, fear, and passion. The music is screeching from the speakers at the front of the locker room. I look around and my teammates are preparing in their own ways. We are all preparing for war, but we all prepare differently.
My preparations must be exact. For me, its the same routine every game. I have my cup of black coffee and slowly start to stretch out my body. Even as I sit with my left leg crossed over my right, I'm methodically stretching those hips, getting loose and getting ready.
And we sit, diligent through the team meeting and watch video on our opponent. We learn the in's and out's. We know their game plan, and we formulate ours. It's high-speed chess, with sticks and skates, with an asterisk* in the rule book that says you're allowed to take your gloves off and fight for any reason whatsoever. And so I prepare to do battle. I prepare to fight for my teammates, and my team, and my family, and for myself. I summon the courage to do what must be done, and then finally I reach the point of acceptance. I accept the fact that there is a good chance I will be fighting today. I accept it and don't worry about it any more. Now I worry about making the right plays and decisions. Caressing that puck and zipping it past the goalie. I put my earphones in now, and get ready for my warm up.
The first guitar riff of Ma Jolie by Bear vs Shark blasts out of my earbuds, and like some Pavlovian maddog, I snap into a robotic trance as I begin the Dynamic Warmup.
I've been doing this for years and years, and know the precise movements that I must perform to prepare my body to perform athletically. And as my arms and legs flip and flap, that Bear vs Shark album triggers memories and feelings deep within my consciousness, a feeling that can only be achieved by having listened to this exact same album before every hockey game, during this exact warmup, for the past seven years. It takes me to a different place, somewhere meditative and focused, and I see my goals and ambitions sprawled out before me, and as my warm up ends, I am always inspired, sweating, fuming, and ready to play.
We take the ice for warmups, and the seats are starting to fill up in the stands. We skate around for twenty minutes and perform our usual movements of passes, shots, and strides. I think about how good it feels to be out on the battle field, flying around with a stern sneer, thinking about how good my body feels today. Everything is clicking, today is going to be a good game. I'm going to be excellent today, and I am repeating this constantly now. And believing it completely.
I see some kids in the stands screaming for a puck, so I flick one up into the stands and watch five children all reach for that rubber prize. I think back to all those hockey games I watched as a kid and saw those players out there, so mythic and heroic, and how I wanted nothing more than to be one of those hockey players some day. And at age ten, and age six, and age fifteen, and age eighteen, I said it over and over, "that's going to be me someday". And at age 27 I said it too, and never lost that dream. And while I have strayed this way and that, veering from my destined path, I have returned now, stronger, hungrier, and prepared. And here I am now, and I'm really doing it. I feel some tingling sense of nostalgia or novelty, and I take one last lap around the rink before the clock buzzes and ends warmups.
As I skate this last lap, I see everything around me, my teammates, my opponents, the fans, this giant arena we play in. It is almost overwhelming, and I think one million thoughts at once and end with one final thought that rings just a little longer than all the rest, that this is exactly what I'm supposed to be doing right now. Make the most of it. Give everything. Believe in yourself. Chase your dream. You are still that ten year old boy watching Steve Yzerman skate around during warmups at the Red Wings game. You are still that boy who put his face right up against the glass, two eyes peering, and just watching him skate around, so smooth and powerful, so graceful. I never took my eye off Yzerman during that whole warm up, until the usher checked my ticket and sent me off, back to the nose bleeds. But I was there, standing right next to him, separated by years and a thin layer of plexiglass, and I made that promise that I was going to be out there someday.
Ten minutes to puck drop. The House that Heaven Built by the Japandroids, is playing on repeat on my iPod. I feel that nostalgia again. I drift back to the middle of summer, and I'm drowning in sweat, 100% saturation of my tee shirt at the YMCA. I'm sprinting on the treadmill, interval training, 30 seconds on, 30 seconds off, 10% incline at 10mph. I'm running up hill and staring off at some invisible point on the wall. Hockey season is three months away, but I'm there. I'm on the rink and it is as clear as day. The House that Heaven Built is blaring, and it served as the sound track to endless summer workouts.
The lyric plays, "I settled in slowly to this house that you call home, to blood and breath, fear, flesh, and bone." And I'm not quite sure what that lyric means. But somehow it makes more sense than anything at this moment, and it gives me goosebumps.
And now in the locker room, with minutes to go before we officially take the ice for the game, this song reminds me of the torture I endured, and I dedication I displayed. Where I'm at now is a direct result of days and days of repeated excellence all summer long, and for the past three years. Toss in some luck and good fortune of course, but in the end, I've prepared for this moment, and have already envisioned it and lived it on countless treadmills and sprints. I've been here before. Now I just have to trust myself and go out and do it. And we take the ice. My eyes are on fire. My heart is beating fast. And now I get to be me.
Now I get to play.
The End.

Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
From pre k to 8th grade.. this school is excellent academically. . I would recommend this sschool to any parent who have thought about private school vs public school.. this school mmeets all the require ments.. only thing I would change is they include some more extra curriculum courses for the kids. . More shows for the parents to attend.. otherwise I am very pleased with the school
P.S. M.S. 124 If your looking for the best school in the south ozone park area I recommend this school.Evryone the staff,the teachers are geared to give your child the most excellent academic learning.I had to move from this area and realized how wonderful this school is .My son is devastated since we came into the Brooklyn area bc even the catholic schools were behind in the teaching.I am going to make sure my son gets into a school that has the potential to excel like MS 124 did.Keep up the wonderful work you are doing you are opening doors in these kids future,I want to thank the staff and the teachers for all the wonderful and loving way you treated my boy QUENTIN you will always live in our hearts THANKS again ;((I am crying)
great school im a 7th grader and love it there there are alot of students who take bus just to come to this school everyone excels in their class and their so much activities i wish their was cheerleading and MORE art but overalll its a great school:]
i have two kids going to this school. the school activities are too good. the environment is friendly. the security is very good , i am very relax about my kids safety. the homeworks is too much and the kids didnt get enough time to do the homework. thats all.
I have a eight year old daughter in this school.The teachers are well prepare and they are excellent teachers. They help their students to give their best in all their school activities.
I have a kindergardner who has significantly improved in many areas since september. Not only are his teachers wonderful, but the entire staff seems to pull together to help out any way they can. The Core Knowlege curriculum is awsome. It allows you to follow along with what your child is learning so that you can stay on top of things. There are frequent feild trips and other school activities. Also, another A+ is the school is very diverse which is very celebrated in the school. However, there is no jungle gym, which is typical for queens. Also, getting your child to and from school can be quite an effort and as a matter of fact quite dangerous. People double and tripple park, sometimes in crosswalks despite many efforts by the school to correct th situation.
I have three children who attend this school and all of them have excellent teachers who do a great job preparing them for the next grade. This is a core knowledge school in which my children are learning about things that I didn't learn until high school. In my opinion Ms. Diglio, and Ms. Garone are probably the most caring and effective teachers that I have met.
The school boasts a Core Knowledge program that is wonderful and which is being adopted by other public schools. Some teachers are excellent; others need a child psychology class or two. There is not enough art education. The schools surprises us with excellent music and dance classes. Parent involvement is stifled by a very clique-ish group of PTA and non-PTA parents who seems to be there all day long. The Parent Coordinator is friendly but so swamped rarely are calls returned. Maybe other parents have had a better experience. The Principal is efficient but no organization is perfect. The school chose empowerment. We can hope this is for the better. Experience is that it's improper to question the status-quo. Better to be non-thinking beings, you'll get more friends there that way!
My child is attending PS 124 and I do like the standard. My child is in the aster class k218 and his teacher is wonderful, I could not have believe that the things my chld is doing righ now and that a kendergardener could handle all these things. I always recommend ps 124 to my friends and family. I would like for my child to continue his education in the aster class. I went to ps 124 few days ago and the security is very high because i didnt took an identification card with me and they didnt let me in, so i also do appreciate that. The penny harvest was the best my child and i sert all our pennies and donated it. It was the best experience. I also do appreciate that kids are encouraged by grading them for student of the month. My child did had that opportunity.

Good Points
They suit the average surfer.
That means you, unless you are in the top 44.
Even most of those guys would benifit.
Bad Points
Maybe a little heavy. But really strong.
General Comments
most shops sell Mccoy Surfboards Nugget as a begginers boards when in fact they are like a"subaru impressa" of surfboads, anyone can drive one really fast and not crash very much.
Most people are stuck on the "normal" shortboard, that`s really only good if your "mr slater".
So fast that when you fall off it`s of the back of the board, not over the nose like you do on boards with tiny rails.
The wide tail is the accelaerator that most boards don`t have.

We are AlsterTouch - the team of professional software developers based in Hamburg, Germany. Our mission is simple and clear: create software that is pleasant to use. Why compromise functionality or appearance if you can have both?
We create exciting and novel yet highly functional iPhone and iPad applications (or "Apps" as we know them). We embrace innovation and enjoy what we do. It is our sincere hope that just as we have fun developing Apps for you, so will you and your clients have fun using them. We develop any custom-specified Apps for Apple's iOS platform.
So you have an idea for a cool App to run on the iPhone or iPad? Good! Because we have lots of development experience on the iOS platform and we know exactly how to flesh out your idea into a product that runs smoothly on the target device and delivers full functionality with a clear and intuitive interface to the end user.
Just tell us about your idea, and we will quickly give you a no-obligation quote, schedule appointments, and develop your App that you can publish in Apple's AppStore or distribute yourself.
By the way, we treat all our projects with confidentiality and protect our customers' privacy and IP with the NDA.
Our software runs on all mobile devices from Apple - iPhone, iPad and iPod touch. We work with the latest iOS 7 and iOS 8 - features, such as App Extensions, Handoff, AirDrop, iBeacons, iCloud, AirPlay, In-App Purchase, Twitter- & Facebook sharing, Passbook etc. And of course, your apps will be optimized for the high-resolution iPhone and iPad retina displays. Apple Watch apps are planned.
Once we know your ideas and concepts, we will send you a quote. Our estimate
is broken down by individual app functions, so you can see which of the
desired functions are most labour-intensive and which ones are easy to
implement. The total cost is, of course, dependent on the size of the
No. We guarantee a fixed final cost for an agreed scope of development. You
will always be charged the agreed project cost. Furthermore, we will fix any
errors or bugs that you discover in our product free of charge.
Yes, we sign a conventional software development contract with our clients.
Yes. You will receive both full rights to and the complete source code for
the software. In the development contract, we waive any copyright claims on
our part and grant you title to global distribution and use of the software.
We assure you that we keep your ideas and concepts confidential and will not
communicate them to a third party. Give us a call or send us an e-mail, and
we will send you a signed confidentiality agreement immediately.
This is, of course, dependent on the size of the software. Developing a
typical iPhone/iPad application usually takes about 3-6 weeks.
You will receive an invoice at the end of the project with a certified VAT
Here are some numbers*:

Sirs, I came home from work and had to wait to find out you upgraded the TV Guide (if you want to call it an upgrade). I personally think it is two step backward and closely resembles the Comcast TV Guide of a few years ago. Not only is the TV Guide poor programming choice but it also does not hold to the "Favorites" when the box is turned off. In these days of resources conservation, I think that leaving the box turned on is a waste of resources and not very green thinking. I wonder who the "airhead" was that OK'ed this (so called) upgrade. I feel with this new TV Guide you've really screwed up.
Since Fios made some changes, there has been a light blue boarder at the
bottom of the screen each time I change the channel ... this is VERY ANNOYING!!! I have
to either press the exit button or wait until the boarder goes away. PLEASE take away
the boarder.
Please let me know if this can be done.
{edited for privacy}
Please fix this! I turn my tv off in frustration not being able to read the tiny font.
I agree! This guide has got to go. I have HD and it still is difficult to read. In the On Demand menu you can't see the entire episode with number so you have to keep rocking back and forth to figure out where you are when scrolling through a series episodes.
Verizon! Change it back to the old guide. You don't try to fix something that isn't working.
White on blue = very difficult to read.
Thinking of going back to Comcast now.
I don't like the new guide, either.
The colors make it harder to read form a distance, and there is less info on the screen than before-- a small number of channels are shown in each full screen.
I most heartily agree with the many who find it difficult to read the white printing on light blue background. Perhaps if you made the blue darker or the print in black it would solve the problem. A large number of people have expressed their dislike of the currant way and spoke of switching carriers. I like Verizon and hope that they heed the concerns of their customers. Thank you....."Bunty"
I concur - the new menu changes are not to the good. My first words were "this looks like the old Comcast menu". It has me wondering who do you use to recommend these changes - aliens from outer space? People who have never used or seen a tv menu before - so that anything looks good to them?
Just returned from vacation to find the new guide. I was forewarned but did not expect it to be a step backward from previous version. In particular, as mentioned by other posters, the current channel info (channel #, program summary, duration, ...) now persists for 10 seconds as opposed to 4 or 5 in the previous version. That is MUCH LONGER THAN NECESSARY. So now I have to press the Exit key to force it to disappear. And although some Verizon employee bragged about all the new settings in this software version, there is no way apparently to change this dwell time. Verizon, you have made a mistake.
Second complaint: the highlighted / expanded channel (the one in center of guide listing) used to have a progress bar that very quickly revealed how much of the program had already passed. For example, a movie that began an hour ago. You took this away and force us to read the text of the start and end time. Did your alleged extensive user testing reveal that customers thought the progress bar was a bad thing?
I have yet to discover any new guide feature to offset these gaffes.
Here is what needs to be done. Start with a new team. Start with a blank sheet of paper. You are not going to be able to band-aid a poorly designed channel guide. You will have to do what should have been done before launching this poorly designed and poor functioning essential customer experience service. If you are reading this carefully you will have figured out two key points. 1) the existing channel guide is poor. 2) start over with a new team and a blank sheet of paper.
I Absolutely hate it I can't see a thing at all... So hard to see all the Colors... Not only that but it doesn't scroll as well as it did before it gets stuck and forces you to scroll real slow or miss what was on that channel,,,and now this morning also the on demand section is horrible... Like it back the old way..If it aint broke don't fix it gezzz
The new guide and DVR screen are difficult to read. The font is not vision friendly and is too small and a poor choice for anyone with even the slightest vision problems. The white on grey or blue is also a poor choice. More contrast is needed. The screen is too "busy" looking. The old guide was much better form a visual point of view. The menu needs to be functional for all users.

A Boy Like Me, A Girl Like You1 Reviews
Hmm...what is up with BDEN
A Boy Like Me, A Girl Like You
After explaining all we knew to everyone, we all ended up at a Carls Jr. for lunch. Pete suggested we stay together until it was out of all the magazines. He said it would ruin Brendon and Panic's career if he got married and then divorced the random girl the next day. I then decided there was no way I was sitting next to Pete. So, Brendon, Ryan, Spencer, Jessica, Chanti, and I sat in one booth while the others ended up in the booth behind us.

yo, dude. UR MRRIED ND
text from Belsie
"It's all good. I think we're still figuring out what happened." Brendon laughed. Jessica looked up at me wide eyed from her phone.
"Excuse me?" I asked also in shock. There is no way he could be like Criss Angel, right?
"Sorry, I'm a creep." He grinned. I half smiled and blushed.
"So, Jessica and I are thinking of going to see the Cirque show later on. Do you and Brendon want to come with?" Ryan looked up at me. I glanced at Brendon who looked entertained by the idea so I agreed as well.
text from Jessi
I grinned and Brendon grasped my hand.
"Tis the perfect opportunity." He whispered in my ear and kissed my cheek. I wondered if it was all an act or if he really was trying. It wasn't until I saw him grin to some cameras outside that I decided. I let go of his hand and picked up my phone again.

I ht ths boy rght now
Jessica and Ryan obviously hooked up several times in the last two days. They were all over each other, which was very cute I had to admit. I leaned in to Brendon and kissed his cheek.
"Hmm?" He didn't take his eyes of the performers to even notice what just happened.
"Are you just posing to like me for the cameras like Pete told you to?" I whispered.
"What?" He turned to me with a raised eyebrow.
"Are you trying to make this 'marriage' pleasant?" I replied using air quotations. "Or are you just faking it to please the cameras?" He looked hurt.
"No. Naw….NO!" He stated. Ryan leaned over and slapped his hand.
"Dude, shut up!" He hissed and him and Jessica went back to watching the show.
"What do you mean no?" I whispered.
"I mean I'm actually trying for this. I'm a huge believer in fate and maybe that's what this is." He tucked my bangs behind my ear and kissed my neck. It was at this moment I realized that…maybe…just maybe…I could…MAYBE…spend the rest of my life with Brendon Urie of Panic! At The Disco.
A/N: Here it is ladies and gentlemen, the dramatic third chapter. Fourth chapter will be drama, drama, drrrraaaamah! (BTW Bden in glasses is the sex!)
Ahottertouch: Sugar, don't pout! More chapters are coming! Thanks for taking an interest!
Let_it_go: You totally just made my day! You are so sweet reviewing my stuff! I don't deserve fans like you. =] there will be more chapters, don't worry. I'm having way too much fun writing this!

Rumors hot and heavy Flyers are close to pulling off a deal or two...
With the Flyers over the cap and needing to get under it by Monday, and with GM Paul Holmgren saying he won't send Brayden Schenn or Sean Couturier to the Philly Phantoms to buy some quick cap relief for a few days, the moons seem in alignment that Holmgren is about to pull of a deal or two to move some money. I have to believe one of those guys might get dealt, but here is an excellent further breakdown of what might happen by Philly Daily News beat writer Frank Seravalli: http://www.philly.com/philly/blogs/frequentflyers/Trade-in-works-for-Flyers.html

Nike Air Pegasus 89 BK – Black – Metallic Silver – Electric Green – Closer Look

Oh how we love our Nike Air. We've seen how Nike has been revamping lots of classics, but we still love our original silhouettes nonetheless. The popular Nike Air Pegasus gets a new colorway , which we previewed not too long ago, in the simple but popping black with a bright neon green. Accented by a neutral grey Swoosh and a white/charcoal midsole, along with an array of materials like leather, nubuck, micro mesh and a woven mesh. Available now at Hanon.
