– Greetings, all. Ken Sugiura sitting in for MC.
– Not a pretty game. Mike Woodson: "We played pretty well in spurts, but we played well enough to win the game."
– Detroit was outmanned, but hung in. I'm still not sure how, as they shot 37 percent from the floor. The two players who took the most shots — Tayshaun Prince and Charlie Villanueva — were a combined 10 for 31. Ben Gordon didn't even score. Said Jamal Crawford, "They compete. They play hard. They have a lot of talented guys. They've got (Rodney) Stuckey, Gordon, (Will) Bynum's capable of putting up some numbers."
– Joe Johnson was out with a sprained right thumb, which may explain why he was 6-for-17 against Cleveland on Friday. Before the game, Woodson wasn't sure if he'd be ready for Charlotte on Tuesday.
– Al Horford on Joe being out: "He's usually our go-to guy and a big part of our team. I know they're missing a lot of guys, too, but we're so used to playing together."
– Not a great night for Jeff Teague. He got some extra minutes with Johnson out, but couldn't take advantage. He had a couple nice plays – he hit a floater and set up an alley oop to Josh Smith — but also had two turnovers and didn't seem to get the offense going.
– Looking ahead, Hawks are on the road four of the next five. They're all winnable – @ Charlotte, @ Detroit, home against Toronto, @ Washington, @Milwaukee – but Hawks have lost their last four on the road. (If you weren't aware, Andrew Bogut injured his elbow Saturday night, which, obviously, would be a tough loss for the Bucks.) Final game of the season is home against Cleveland. A tough home stretch.
Boston, if you're wondering, has Cleveland at home, @ Knicks, @ Toronto, Washington, @ Milwaukee, @ Chicago, Milwaukee.
I'm out. Happy Easter, everyone.

Sit Marvin. Start Mo, for the next few games, and test the theory if Marvin is a better 6 man type player.

From the previous blog,
U say the Cavs are just better than the Hawks. But how do you explain the Bobcats beating the Cavs twice?
If u think JJ is paid like a Batman already, what will u think of his next contract?
One thing I don't like about Woody, is he blames a lot of our losses on us not making jump shots. If only it was that easy.
Did not see the game tonight, but without JJ I'll take the win no matter how ugly.
However, I did not like the 17 points in the fourth. And people complain about Teague not taking advantage of the PT, I haven't seen Marvin take advantage of the PT either.
No JJ tonight, and Marvin has 7 pts, 3 rebs in 37 minutes. But he got a 5 year $37.5 mil contract.
If Marvin does not improve by next season, then we will need to cut our losses. And that is why I think Sund needs to get Chills in here. Let him and Marvin duke it out for the starting SF spot.
On a positive note, we are 1.5 games up on the Celtics, who play the Cavs tomorow. I'll be rooting for the Cavs.
Go Hawks.

@ Melvin, what has Teague done to earn that benefit of the doubt from Woody? Yall consistently overrate Teague as some sort of super PG in the making, but from what I've seen he's an avg PG at best who is tentative, can't shoot & doesn't make good decisions with the ball. Why would you give that guy more time? As I said in the previous blog, I don't agree with Woody on much, but bringing the rook along slowly was the RIGHT move.
-thREE for Roe!!!

"I wish I knew," he said. "It's been that way against the Cleveland Cavaliers. It's been a close game in the fourth and we can't seem to find any offense."
LOL so Woodson still has NOT figured out how to beat the Knicks, Magic (besides that one game), and now the Cavs. This guy DOES NOT MAKE ADJUSTMENTS FROM GAME TO GAME. You HEARD Hubie and Jon Barry say it last night — we lost the exact same way last night we did the 2 previous times vs. Cleveland. Look at those Orlando losses — same thing.
WOODY DOES NOT MAKE ADJUSTMENTS. He DOES NOT "give a !@#$ about the offense" and that shows when we go ice cold in the 4th quarter.
We were OUTREBOUNDED BY 19 WITHOUT Shaq and Varejao (who is an absolute PEST on the glass) playing. Where was Collins to guard Ilgauskas?
This is a !@#$ing joke. This is NOT an elite team. Cleveland is so physical and they go for rebounds. We settle for these !@#damn jumpshots, DON'T box out, and we have NO OFFENSIVE PLAN — JUST A FEW TALENTED SCORERS.
This is the BEST and most accurate post I've made on here.

Teague is not a star but plays nicely.
Woodson takes out players who are playing well. He took forever to get ZaZa in for the 2nd half of the Lakers game even though his first half was amazing
April 4th, 2010
1:59 am
Woodson will never let players compete for starting positions. He's content with having the same starting 5 for the next 8 years if he's coach
April 4th, 2010
2:08 am
Typical game tonight:
Woodson overplaying the starters, bench getting low minutes except for Jamal, and Marvin and Bibby contributing nothing, even though Marvin is a superstar defender according to some people here.
12 points combined from 2 starters who just got new contracts?
April 4th, 2010
2:41 am
Jeje you remind me of me 3 or 4 years ago. Keep it up.
No Joe Johnson and Teague only gets 9 minutes. I hope something doesn't happen and we need his to play extended minutes in the playoffs.
April 4th, 2010
2:46 am
Bibby has got his new contract and quit on the team. All he does is bring the ball up the court and throw up 3's. What a waste of money. We could have used a 3rd of that money and signed one of the MVP's of last years team, Flip Murray.

Ree Roe,
Bringing someone along slowly produces slow results. I don't think Teague has gotten low minutes because he can't play. He's gotten low minutes because Woody planned it that way, and Woody has said as much.
Woody himself said he wasn't going to throw Teague to the wolves, as the saying goes. Woody himself has said he thought Teague has played pretty well, particularly considering the fact that he doesn't get a lot of minutes. So saying Woody did the right thing because of Teague's production is misleading, in my opinion. Rather, he produces what he can in the limited minutes he gets.
Strange how in an effort to paint the kid as a non-player with a ton of weaknesses, Woody's own words get "forgotten" in the shuffle. He has nothing against the kid, making me wonder why anybody supporting the coach, does .
The guy was drafted in the mid/late part of the first round. If he was a super guard, he wouldn't have lasted so long. As for his decision-making, I'll let the stats talk for themselves: 9.5 mpg, 1.5 apg, 0.6 turnovers per game. If you could reasonably extrapolate that into twice the minutes and twice the stats, you'd have 19 mpg, 3 apg, and 1.2 turnovers per game. Bad decision-making my arse. The shooting percentage? I agree with that. He needs to work on his shot, but guess what? Not turning the ball over and playing good defense comes first, and I think he's made some good progress there. As for assertiveness, what are you looking for? For him to take more shots? At whose expense, might I ask?
For Teague to be expected to earn significantly more minutes, he would have to prove that he is better than, or offers more in a total package, than Mike Bibby and Jamal Crawford. If that were the case, we'd be talking about a top 3 lottery pick, not a guy who got picked 19th.
Teague plays 9.5 mpg because we are a 50+ win team and a #3 seed in the Eastern Conference. We don't necessarily need him to play a bigger role, though I'd like to see him get a few more minutes here and there, if the opportunity presents itself.
I agree (finally) for the most part with what Woody is doing with the kid. But it was the plan from the start. We're a playoff team. Don't care how good a rook is, you don't put him in that position, rather than do what is best to get the team further in the playoffs.
Funny side note: What was Mike Bibby doing against Detroit? 5 points, 4 assists, 2-8 shooting. Huh. Seems like he has one of these games right around the time Teague gets bagged on for not scoring 20 points and dishing 10 assists in 9 minutes…LOL
April 4th, 2010

O'brien ,
The only thing I can say about Marvin and his contract is that it's not an unreasonable contract. It may seem that way for this team, but other teams may look at him and think they could cut him into a greater portion of their offense. Now I'm sure Rod will jump in here and say Marvin can't possibly do anymore than he is now, but somehow I'm betting he could give a team 14-15 ppg with a couple/few more shot attempts per game.
I mean, if he can give a team what he gave us in '07-'08, is he worth that 5 year, 37.5 million? Not an awful price if he can duplicate the 14.8 ppg and 6.3rpg that he did back then. Something tells me he can do that if he's given the opportunity to be more than a team's fifth or sixth option. He can probably do it even as the team's 4th option, which is what he was in '07-'08, as I recall.
Beyond that, I agree. 10 points and 5 rebounds per game is NOT worth 5 yrs/$37.5 million, in my opinion.

To me the game never should have been this close. Detroit was without two their starters and have a record that indicates we should have blown them out. How can we play like we did against the Lakers and struggle to beat Detroit. With JJ out, it would seem the perfect opportunity for Mavin or Bibby to step up and play their best game of the season. That would give us all some confidence in what this team can do if their is an injury during the playoffs. Instead it gets down to the last 4 minutes before we extend our lead and win the game.
Marvin did a decent job when he was on Prince, who got most of his points when guarded by someone else. Tonight was the perfect time for Bibby to do some of the penetration and dump off moves that he does far to sparingly and it just didn't happen. Woody really needs to play his bench more. I think Detroit was able to play as well as they did because they have been playing their bench.
I would be remiss if not saying part of what I see as an issue is that we have been one of the healthiest teams in the league. Remember last year when we had the injuries we did have and Woody had to play other people. With no one being out for any significant period of time, coach has not had to make those kind of adjustments. That is going to get us our 50+ win season as much as anything else. It would just be smart, dare I say, for Woody to play the bench anytime we get a substantial lead. I have noticed that sometimes he does not. He keeps the starters out there as if he does not have confidence in the bench that BK and Sund has given him. I fear it will come back to bite him, big time, during the playoffs.
I hope the Hawks can go deep in the playoffs and despite all the gripes, no team management will fire a coach who has continued to have the team improves its wins every year. That is not going to happen, so save your breath on that. If Woody only has 35 wins next year, he will be gone. However, next year with a trade or pick up like we did with Jamaal, we could compete for the title. GO HAWKS!!!!
April 4th, 2010

I would like to see the Hawks in the finals like most of us, and I'm supercritical. Je Je makes sense. But we're not that far off. The San Antonio, Laker, Magic victories seemed very solid, landmark games. Still think Woody needs a lot of help quickly to match other coaches, but no longer willing to fire him pointblank. He needs someone like Lloyd on Entourage to assist him in every way so there are no blind spots. His first challenge is to win some road games. Miami is hot, and as we all know their coach is a scrappy, wild-eyed strategist out to prove himself (not that there's anything wrong with that). I don't think the Hawks should fear anyone. But given time, Miami might have crawled into the fourth playoff seed.
Maybe Joe and Crawford should alternate, so one on the floor at all times. Mo been putting up some numbers. Am I correct, does Marvin Williams play really good defense? Teague is really fast….why can't he play like Tony Parker in the future? He doesn't have the experience to run the club….That's what practices are for. Put him out there in practice and MAKE him run the club until it's second nature. (Sounds like I'm cruel, but Jeff it's for your own good). I like his speed.
Anyway, I like the Hawks chances in the playoffs.
D'yu see Ilgauskas snag 10 rebounds the other night against his jilted suitors (us) ?

We will make our hay these last few games. I think CLE will pound BOS today to send a message …. just in case all the top 4 seeds in the East make it to the 2nd round and they see each other again.
We, on the other hand, have our work cut out … all of our remaining games on the road are vs. teams we have already lost to in their arena….
April 4th, 2010

@ JeJe
Once Woody makes up his mind on a player at the beginning of the season they will start come hell or high water. For example, Woody started Royal Ivey for 63 out the 73 games that he played in '05 – '06 even though he averaged only 13 minutes and 3.6 points per game. That has to be lowest number of minutes averaged by a starter in the history of the NBA. All that is to say Woody is incapable of change – be it lineup, offense or defensive scheme.
Given the financial situation of the ASG, we may have seen one of our centers for next season …. Kwame Brown (i can't believe I'm writing this). He definitely brings more to the table than Jason Collins and Randolph Morris combined plus the price is right. He will be a physical presence in the middle – no more escorts to the rim by the current Hawk centers. Kwame's career numbers are equal to ZaZa.

"U say the Cavs are just better than the Hawks. But how do you explain the Bobcats beating the Cavs twice?"
Matchups. Same reason the Mavs lost to the Warriors in the playoffs a few years ago. I haven't seen the Cavs and Bobcats play, so I don't know what specifically the matchup issues are, but I would guess it starts with them having a very good defensive small forward who can take away a lot of what LeBron can do. Having tall, relatively athletic centers in Tyson Chandler and Nazr Mohammed probably doesn't hurt either.
April 4th, 2010
9:26 am
It's official: Bogut is done for the year. Terrible news for MIL & Bogut
@ Astro, Woody speaks highly of Teague because I believe he actually likes him. I believe Woody actually thinks Teague could be a player some day. But results are results & the truth is that Teague hasn't played well enough in his limited mins to deserve more playing time. 1.5 to 0.6 turnovers can't be reasonablly extroplated. It is what it is. I have nothing against Teague & wish him the best b/c his success only makes us stronger, but Woody has brought him along slowly b/c he HAS to moreso than he WANTS to.
As far as giving Teague a pass b/c he's a mid first round pick, stop it. Lawson, Jrue Holliday, Beaubois & Maynor were all picked around the same time Teague was & all have made significant contributions to their teams. Let's not make excuses here. Teague hasn't played well & even when Bibby has struggled Teague STILL isn't a viable option. He's not aggressive on the offense end, doesn't set the team up on offense & despite his speed & quickness, is a liabity on defense (how many silly fouls does he commit when he's in there?).
All I'm saying is that I agree with not playing Teague that much b/c he doesn't look like he can handle extended minutes or meaningful mins at this point in his career.
-gREEt Roe!!!
April 4th, 2010
9:27 am
People knock it off. Woody is doing the best he can with what he has. Is Marvin Williams underachieving? Has Mike Bibby's game totally dropped off the usual pace we were accustomed to seeing? Is Al Horford playing out of position? Is Josh Smith a tremendous offensive threat? Is Joe Johnson a top tier player? Be honest with yourselves when answering. In reality he has done a better job considering what he has to work with. Remember when Shaq left the Lakers and the great Phil Jackson had Kobe and some adequate talent, how many games did they win? 34. They didn't compete until they got Gasol as a gift to pair with Bynum.
April 4th, 2010
9:28 am
Probably one of Jamal's best games. It's a shame he and Joe couldn't get it going in the 4th against Cleveland. And I agree with whoever said that Jamal plays best without JJ on the floor. It's great to have them both out there during critical moments but through the game Woddy should mix up lineups with Bibby, JC, JJ, Teague and Mo Evans
April 4th, 2010
10:17 am
I think Ken Strickland said it best in the last blog: Bibby cannot take anyone off the dribble, so he picks up his dribble at halfcourt and passes the ball away.
What does Bibby average for points in the paint? 1 ppg? I see this guy get an easy layup once very 2 games maybe.
Woodson also said he doesn't have to play Teague because we have vets running PG. BUT WHAT HAPPENS WHEN BIBBY SEVERELY UNDERACHIEVES AND IN 2 YEARS WHEN BIBBY IS GONE? WHO IS OUR PG THEN? TEAGUE WHO IS GETTING 9 MPG NOW?

It takes the starters 30 minutes to score 10-20 points and yet you expect the rook to score a lot of points in 3-9 minutes a game. LOL!
The rook took 2 shots and made 1. How many points can a player score with took shots if both are made? 4-6 points. He made half (3).
Jeff Teague may have gotten a little bit extra minutes but he certainly only got 2 shot attempts out of the normal 15-21 shots JJ normally takes. So after looking at what the rook didn't contribute, you gotta look at the flip side and see what he did. Two assists, 3 points, a trip to the freebie line, and only one personal foul.
Josh, Al, and Crawford took most of the shots (all in the teens), so they definitely better have more points than everyone else.
Speaking of Josh and Al. Feed a big get a win. Horford made those freebies count 6 out of 6 was just awesome. Smith however got to get those freebies 3 out of 8, ugggh. Rebounding was excellent, scoring in double figures. Double Trouble made the double doubles happen.
Bibby 2 out of 8 made, 1 out of 5 three point attempts. ugggh. But Bibby made up for it in getting 5 rebounds and 4 assists. Which explains his 32 minutes.
Marvelous scored 7 points out of 6 shot attempts and a trip to the freebie line, got an assist, a steal, and a block shot, and 3 rebounds. All this without attempting a 3 pointer. Anybody else get the feeling Marvin is holding back on us?
Mo and Zaza have been a joy to watch since they have been seeing more playing time. Scoring, rebounding, assists from Zaza.
Good to see coach going deep into the reserves. And good call on letting JJ rest up that thumb.
April 4th, 2010
11:04 am
Woody has such insightful thoughts after each game. It is shocking that people like Teague can not develop on those nuggets of wisdom.
April 4th, 2010
11:06 am
Teague got 8 minutes and he is singled out for not producing with extended minutes. Wow. Has Ken been watching Bibby lately?
April 4th, 2010
11:08 am
Jamal Crawford was so hot from 3 point land he deserved a comment all on his own. Eighteen points from way out there. Just fantabulous. Many recognize the quickness of the rook. But J Craw has some pretty quick moves too. The way he gets to the baskets when he decides he want to take it there is like wait a minute where did he go? Jamal was not only scoring, he was assisting his team mates too. Six assists. Twenty nine freaking points. Three out of 4 freebies. I mean he was just doing the damn thang. He even added 2 rebounds. Just wow.
Jamal has already earned 6th man. Just give him the title right now.
April 4th, 2010
11:57 am
I don't know if anyone else noticed, but for a few minutes in the fourth quarter last night, the Hawks went with Za Za, Horford and Smith up front together. A couple of things I noticed during that stretch were:
-The Pistons didn't get any second chance points or opportunities.
-The Hawks got several second chance opportunities that led to BIG buckets.
I thought this was a good move by Woody as the pace of the game was more halfcourt, walk it up. In the playoffs, against bigger teams, I'd like to see the Hawks utilize that lineup more to control the defensive boards and to give them a little advantage on the offensive glass themselves.

Jody i like that line up come playoff time if we play cavs, orlando in the second round.

Woody have 2 match up with orlando and cavs come playoff.
April 4th, 2010
12:17 pm
To have a chance come playoffs against cavs and orlando the hawks must control the board other than that we have no chance, i really like that line up jody come playoff time, but the big Q is will woody change or will he stick with the same line up in the fourth against orlando and cavs if so the hawks will not beat neither team.
April 4th, 2010
12:19 pm
darrell starks,
Being able to match up with bigger teams and control the boards is indeed critical for the Hawks to succeed in the playoffs and I think going to that lineup for certain stretches will help the Hawks do that (thought they could have used it against Cleveland Friday night). Some folks will be down on it and not like it because it will take a little more time from Marvin, but you have to matchup with bigger lineups.
April 4th, 2010

April 4th, 2010

We all know Woodson and Marvin suck, but Marvin is at least a serviceable defender (good, but not great).
However, what will ultimately lead to our demise in the playoffs is the fact that Bibby CANNOT guard anyone in this league. What this means is that Woodson, who already has stiff rotations, will give Bibby few minutes against the quicker PGs (which is every other starting and bench PG in this league), Crawford will get burnt out play 38 minutes at PG every night, and we will therefore suffer.
April 4th, 2010
1:23 pm
Great post as usual Big Ray. The way people were talking about Teagues performance last night one would think that maybe Bibby had a big game then. Well no. Bibby was worse than the rook if you consider the number of minutes Bibby played. Its like a few posters already said, what do you really expect in 9 minutes? He almost matched in 9 what the starter did in what 30. And I think its unfair to compare him to the other pgs from the draft considering a lot of them are either starting or playing 20 plus minutes per game. I'm sure he could match the big scoring output of Holiday at 7 points per game if he started like Holiday does.
April 4th, 2010
1:55 pm
Big Ray:
In regards to Marv, I'm giving up. There are people on this board
(even rational, clear thinkers like O'B) who want Marv devalued so
much that they just want to give him away. They will not even concede
age, contract relative to age, anything. He is just a horrible human
being who doesn't care, doesn't try and is a detriment to society.
They don't want to recieve any return value for him because then they
would not have a good enough reason to loathe him for years to come.
Heaven forbid he actually return a decent player via trade. Their
greatest hope is for him to fail elsewhere but if he were to succeed
then it would only be to spite the Hawks franchise because he is now, secretly refusing to utilize his talent, which would fly in the face of the prevailing theory of his current laziness and lack of inner drive.
Personally, I hope he goes to the Spurs and becomes an All-Star,
because 'Pop' knows how to recognize and utilize the skill set with which one has been blessed.

While I picked Orlando over Dallas to win the NBA Championship (yes, I think Lakers are done if they play either Denver or Dallas), I would rather play Orlando over Cleveland. We just cannot beat Cleveland. We got destroyed by them in 4 games last year, added a better 6th man, but they added Shaq, Jamison, and Moon (all of whom they could probably survive without).
What makes people think we can compete with Cleveland in a series? They are way too damn physical, long, and good at shooting for us to compete. Orlando is deep as hell too — the deepest team in the league, but I somehow think Woodson can devise a defense to keep their shooters at bay.
While Woody's defensive strategies are pretty overrated, he would do better against Orlando. If we could bust out Collins or RandMo in a few games, we could win a few games.
We just aren't deep enough to compete for a title this year. We need to expand payroll by 20M and get more players like Matt Barnes and Gortat to round out this roster

have followed the NBA for forever years and I didn't even know who Jamal Crawford was. He is freaking amazing and seems like a decent guy off court. (Hawkdified ditto)
This goes against all rational thinking, but I feel really good about the Hawks going into the playoffs. I hope Woody decks Kidd in the finals. (Just Kidding. I don't think Dallas will be there).
Sidenote: It was a real sense of freedom to actually visualize the Hawks going all the way. Try it. It feels good! Again, I didn't say it was rational.
April 4th, 2010
3:40 pm
Well . . at this moment . . the Cavs are down 2 with 16 seconds left ( after taking the lead briefly during a 25 – 5 run in the 4th quarter ). This will be a devastating loss if the Celtics lost this game . . because they were up 22 points at one point in the 4th quarter.
As for the Hawks, there is no doubt in my mind that we can win at least 2 home games vs any team we play in the playoffs.

Watching that Celts/Cavs game brought back bad memories of the Hawks against the Cavs in recent years. I thought it didnt really matter who we played in the 2nd round, but I definitely would prefer seeing Orlando. While Howard can be dominating in his own right, King James always has the ball in his hand. Also with Bogut out for the rest of the season, definitely would love to see the Bucks in the 1st round.

I agree that Marvin is young, and there is still time to turn it around. But in 5 seasons, he has had 1 good year in my opinion.
And he is the 6th option, so I don't know why Sund gave him that contract.
Marvin is a good team player, and as a hawks fan, I will continue to root for him. But if he does not step it up by the end of next season, I say trade him.
April 4th, 2010

Don't give me or others on here that,"teague has to play well in order to get minutes" crap!!
Games that he has played little and well,he rarely got to see time in the next game..When he comes in and plays for 5 minutes and plays well,and then we all get on here and say what a nice job he has done..and then come the next game,he either plays 3 minutes or none..WTF??
Where is the talk about his playing time then??
It just shows that woody does not have the patience to let this guy come in and play thru his mistakes..
As many mistakes,bad shots,and off nights that bibby has,he never takes him out a game..
Yes,bibby has a decent but incosistent shot..he has a great knowledge for the game,but his skills are eroding every year now..bibby had to have had a coach that let him play thru his mistakes and get to where he is today..If woody does not have vets in to just tell them what to do and he don't have to coach,he will be lost..
this coach might know a little of the basics of baketball,but,he along with his coaching staff really do not have the makeup of a true staff..and,we win dispite of their coaching limits..

What makes people think we can compete with Cleveland in a series? They are way too damn physical, long, and good at shooting for us to compete. Orlando is deep as hell too — the deepest team in the league, but I somehow think Woodson can devise a defense to keep their shooters at bay.
While Woody's defensive strategies are pretty overrated, he would do better against Orlando. If we could bust out Collins or RandMo in a few games, we could win a few games.
We just aren't deep enough to compete for a title this year. We need to expand payroll by 20M and get more players like Matt Barnes and Gortat to round out this roster

Jonathan Adler Comes Clean
SoulCycle aficionados can expect a few things when they step inside any number of the growing spinning empire's locations: The workout will be fierce, the music will be loud, and the air will smell delicately of clean, fresh fruit and flowers. That last bit is thanks to interiors wiz Jonathan Adler, whose grapefruit, green vine, pink freesia and passion-fruit-kissed scented candles became so synonymous with the fitness studio, they were ultimately sold, by popular demand, in limited quantities two years ago. With the writing on the wall, Adler has once again breathed new life into his iconic grapefruit scent, this time in the bath-and-body category. Available in hand wash, body wash, hand lotion, and body lotion forms, Adler's Grapefruit offering is joined by a Tomato scented hand wash and lotion, which feature notes of rhubarb, tomato leaves, thyme, and sandalwood, as well as a Fig body wash and lotion, which are tinged with hints of bergamot, ivy, coconut, and emerald moss. Lather, rinse, repeat—and toss them into your gym bag, if you're so inclined.

Theatre Rhinoceros revives its spring production of Alan Bennett's 'The Habit of Art'
If the disheveled book shelves, garden of crumpled paper balls, and two upstage pianos (in Gilbert Johnson's scenic design) seems to belie the neatness of the play's construction, Bennett's care and control evoke precisely the untidiness of life. It's maybe this that attracts him more than anything else — the messiness of personality, love, sex, art, loyalty, and all of the things we'd like to think of as pure and inviolate. *
Wed/20-Sat/23, 8pm (also Sat/23, 3pm), $15-$25

Reader Comments (Page 1 of 1)
@Mat James
Clearly your higher level of education has done nothing for your basic understanding or acceptance of thinking outside the box. Alchemy is not the same as chem. Congrats on that brilliant observation. It is however representative of it. Mix things together to get something else. The idea behind this kind of learning environment is that everyday interactions and experiences can be expanded to a profound level. A kid in game sees how alchemists make potions. That then leads them to ask how does that work? So they research it. They find out on their own, because they are interested. Just because you were too stupid or lazy to discover things on your own or develop passions for learning, don't assume that others are the same. People that take their own initiative to understand something out of a sincere desire, will without a doubt come to understand it much better and more fully than those that are force fed the same information. Maybe you should learn to actaully think before you flaunt your fears of something different.

---IMPORTANT NOTE: This procedure is much more complicated than replacing the battery in a modern system. Please read through the entire Instructable before starting. Also, this repair is designed to meet the original factory specification for this computer. If you just want to change the battery–and don't mind slightly changing the appearance of a rarely-seen area inside the computer–then there are much simpler options. See "Alternatives" at the end of this Instructable.
Step 1: Supplies
–Replacement battery, 1/2AA, 3.6V, axial leads. (Tadiran TL-5101/P)–Digi-Key, www.digikey.com, P/N 439-1003-ND
–Soldering iron, 20-40 watts, fine tip–Radio Shack
–Solder, 60/40 tin-lead–Radio Shack
–Desoldering bulb, wick, or pump–Radio Shack
NOTE: DON'T substitute other battery types. Most seemingly similar batteries (even with the same nominal voltage) won't work properly, may damage your computer and could even pose a fire hazard.
Step 2: Getting Started
The components are very sensitive to static electricity, so use an antistatic wrist strap or floor mat connected to a good ground.
Gather all your tools and materials.

US Marine pleads to taking $150K in bribes in Iraq
Thursday - 12/6/2012, 9:57pm EST
SAN DIEGO (AP) - Federal prosecutors in San Diego say a U.S. Marine has pleaded guilty to accepting $150,000 in bribes from contractors while stationed in Iraq.
The U.S. attorney's office says 36-year-old Staff Sgt. Gilbert Mendez pleaded guilty Thursday to conspiring to defraud the United States.
Mendez worked as a contracting officer at Camp Fallujah, Iraq, in 2006 and 2007.
Prosecutors say he abused the position, accepting at least $150,000 in bribes from three foreign-owned companies that subsequently received contracts worth millions of dollars.
The statement did not name the companies or say whether they would also face charges. The U.S. attorney's office did not immediately return a phone message seeking comment.
Mendez is scheduled for sentencing March 1 and faces a maximum of 20 years in custody.

This was super easy to make. I didn't use the jalapeno so that it wasn't too spicy for the kids. And I made sure to cut the squash small so that they would all cook well through. Good portion size and could easily have two serving since it's pretty low calorie. Good flavor too, of course.

Barcamp Nairobi 2011
It is that time of the year again, when Nairobi's tech community gets together to share ideas and exciting new projects at Barcamp Nairobi. Barcamp is a geek unconference born from the desire for people to share and learn in an open environment. It is an open, participatory workshop-event, the content of which is provided by participants.The procedural framework for Barcamp consists of sessions proposed and scheduled each day by the attendees. Unlike classical conference formats, Barcamp relies on passion and responsibility of the participants.
The first Barcamp Nairobi was held on 31st March 2007 at the University of Nairobi and was attended by 50 brave campers (40 more than the organisers had anticipated). The first talk at this Barcamp was on the fastest car in the world then, the Bugatti Veyron. Since then, Barcamp Nairobi has included a wide range of topics from tech-heavy ones like Cloud Computing Applications in Kenya and Linux as a Development Platform for Engineers to those that are delightfully unique like How To Make The Perfect Cappuccino and Using My GPS Enabled Cell phone To Avoid Traffic.
This year, Barcamp Nairobi celebrates its 5th birthday with a lot of pride. From 50 campers in 2007 the event has exploded to 600 campers in 2010. For a couple of hours on one afternoon in a single room, Barcamp Nairobi now runs over a whole weekend, morning to evening, in venues at the heart of the Kenyan tech community with over 100 very influential local and international bloggers making up a key part of the audience.
Although the event has changed beyond recognition the key values remain the same; sessions proposed and scheduled each day by attendees, all attendees are encouraged to present or facilitate a session, everyone is also asked to share information and experiences of the event via public web channels, attendance is typically monetarily free and generally restricted only by space constraints. More people, more time, bigger venues, same price, same principles.
Each year, Barcamp Nairobi operates around a theme and for 2011, the theme is "Open Governance" in line with the recent launch of the open data initiative in Kenya. We welcome discussions about, and around it. Barcamp Nairobi 2011 will be held at the iHub Nairobi and Nailab on Saturday 15th October, 2011 from 9am. Early birds get a free Barcamp T Shirt. Registration is now open here

Most of the times that I've set goals for myself, I've failed to reach them. I wanted straight A's through high school. Failed. I wanted to be part of the basketball or football team. Failed. I wanted to go to UCLA and be a Economics Major and go into the medical field. Failed. I wanted to be a doctor. Failed. I wanted to be ahead of the curve, be popular and live a rich life throughout college. Definitely failed.
I don't regret most of my failures. To be honest, most of the goals were pretty out of reach. Taking AP classes during sophomore year really didn't help. Slacking off too much and not caring enough for my future didn't have a positive effect either. But I learned from my mistakes and have been trying to participate and get as much out of life as I can as I shed away my shyness.
This is where Eric Banks comes in. He's not the "social, fearless" side of me. He's the guy who has achieved all my goals. He's the person that I wanted to be. He goes to UCLA, is acing all his classes, drives a BMW M3, and has a full ride scholarship because he plays Wide Receiver for the Bruins. A little farfetched? Yup.
When I started to make this character, I only thought this: if I was to be jealous of anyone in this world, if I wanted to envy anyone, why not a person who has been in the same situation as me, but looked at the brighter side of life? Why not envy someone that constantly achieves all the goals I set and make the best out of the worst situations? Plus, It'd be easier to be jealous of this person because he's essentially me, and because of that, I can self actualize, and become the man that I wanted to be.
So, I dedicate this page to you, Eric Banks. The man that Bikran Sandhu could've been. The man that always lives life to the fullest, and doesn't worry about the little things. The man who has everything, lives his dream, but is ultimately, just a figment of my imagination…

Srinivasa Ramanujan
From Wikiquote
(Redirected from Ramanujan)
Srinivasa Aiyangar Ramanujan (Tamil: ஸ்ரீனிவாஸ ஐயங்கார் ராமானுஜன்) (22 December 1887 – 26 April 1920) was a Indian mathematician and autodidact, noted for his extraordinary achievements in the field of mathematical analysis, number theory, infinite series, and continued fractions. In his uniquely self-developed mathematical research he not only rediscovered known theorems but also produced brilliant new work, prompting his mentor G. H. Hardy to compare his brilliance to that of Euler and Gauss. He became a Fellow of the Royal Society, and India now observes his birthday as National Mathematics Day.
- One day he was explaining a relation to me; then he suddenly turned round and said, "Sir, an equation has no meaning for me unless it expresses a thought of GOD."
- Shiyali Ramamrita Ranganathan, in Ramanujan, the Man and the Mathematician (1967), p. 88
- Variant:
- An equation means nothing to me unless it expresses a thought of God.
Quotes about Ramanujan[edit]
- Sorted alphabetically by author
- Ramanujan lived in a tiny hut in India. No formal education, no access to other works. But he came across an old math book and from this basic text he was able to extrapolate theories that had baffled mathematicians for years. … Ramanujan's genius was unparalleled.
- Ben Affleck and Matt Damon, in Good Will Hunting (1997)
- Paul Erdős has passed on to us Hardy's personal ratings of mathematicians. Suppose that we rate mathematicians on the basis of pure talent on a scale from 0 to 100, Hardy gave himself a score of 25, Littlewood 30, Hilbert 80 and Ramanujan 100.
- Bruce C. Berndt in Ramanujan's Notebooks : Part I (1994), "Introduction", p. 14
- He could remember the idiosyncrasies of numbers in an almost uncanny way. It was Littlewood who said that every positive integer was one of Ramanujan's personal friends. I remember once going to see him when he was ill at Putney. I had ridden in taxi cab number 1729 and remarked that the number seemed to me rather a dull one, and that I hoped it was not an unfavorable omen. "No," he replied, "it is a very interesting number; it is the smallest number expressible as the sum of two cubes in two different ways."
- G. H. Hardy, in Ramanujan : Twelve Lectures on Subjects Suggested by His Life and Work (1940), the number 1729 is now known as the Hardy–Ramanujan number after this famous anecdote (1729 = 13 + 123 = 93 + 103).
- Srinivasa Ramanujan was the strangest man in all of mathematics, probably in the entire history of science. He has been compared to a bursting supernova, illuminating the darkest, most profound corners of mathematics, before being tragically struck down by tuberculosis at the age of 33, like Riemann before him.
- Michio Kaku, in Hyperspace : A Scientific Odyssey Through Parallel Universes, Time Warps, and the Tenth Dimension (1995), p.172
- Every positive integer is one of Ramanujan's personal friends.
- John Littlewood, as recalled in G. H. Hardy (1921), "Obituary Notices: Srinivasa Ramanujan", Proceedings of the London Mathematical Society 19, p. lvii
- Srinivasa Ramanujan, discovered by the Cambridge mathematician G. H. Hardy, whose great mathematical findings were beginning to be appreciated from 1915 to 1919. His achievements were to be fully understood much later, well after his untimely death in 1920. For example, his work on the highly composite numbers (numbers with a large number of factors) started a whole new line of investigations in the theory of such numbers.
- Jayant Narlikar, in Scientific Edge : The Indian Scientist from Vedic to Modern Times (2003)

WASHINGTON (AP) — Conservatives teeming with anti-Washington frustration are talking about driving the Republicans' policy agenda and ousting GOP leaders who don't hew to their ideology.
At dueling meetings in the shadow of the U.S. Capitol on Monday, two of Washington's most aggressive political organizations outlined conservative agendas that in some ways run counter to a strategy preferred by Republican leaders in Congress. Tea party-styled leaders vowed to prevail over moderates in the party and longtime politicians.
Republican Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas says, quote, "Americans are frustrated because their priorities are not the priorities of Washington." The tea party favorite says the frustration crosses party lines.
That irritation could be a boon for conservative candidates, especially the crop of hopefuls who are looking to take on incumbent lawmakers from their own party.

Seychelles: Coastal adaptation at its best - Seychelles island restored coastline becomes recreational park

Seychelles being a small island nation surrounded by the Indian Ocean remains vulnerable to the effects of climate change. One clearly visible sign of such vulnerability lies on the archipelago's coastlines where several shorelines have been subjected to intense degradation and erosion.
North East Point in the northern part of the main island of Mahé, Anse La Mouche (Bay of the Fly) in the western part of Mahé and even the shoreline near the jetty on third most populated island of La Digue are examples of regions that have bared witness to coastal erosion mainly due to rising sea level as well as stronger waves which removes large portion of sand from the beaches.A project was initiated which has brought about a complete change of scenery as the area has not only been rehabilitated but it has also been turned into a recreational park.

Cocktail Culture
It's Foodie Tuesday!
When I was a bartender in the 1980's, cocktails were brightly coloured, syrupy-sweet concoctions finished off with a festive umbrella. It didn't take much talent to serve drinks, unless you wanted to add some flair to your technique like Tom Cruise in the eponymous movie.
But just as food has undergone a revolution in the last few decades, so has the development of the cocktail. Bartenders are taking cues from chefs to create well-balanced libations with ingredient lists that often read like recipes from restaurants and include herbs, fruits and vegetables, and even bacon.
(Please Don't Tell's Benton's Old Fashioned, Photo: Cocktail Revival)
Bars like Please Don't Tell in New York created truly individual drinks, like the Bacon-Infused Old Fashioned. Ironically, while the flavour profiles of these cocktails are extremely modern (and follow similar food trends), many are based on pre-Prohibition era favourites, like manhattans, gimlets, and punch bowls (nothing like your mother's punch, I promise you). And keeping with the history of these drinks, many modern cocktail bars are set up like private clubs, such as the Toronto Temperance Society (which has a $285 membership fee) or 1920's speakeasys, hidden away from the general public.
(Bar Chef's Vanilla Hickory Smoked Manhattan Photo: Intelligent Bartender)
Hunting down these places is often well worth it, as much to experience the mixologists' creations as the atmosphere. Take Bar Chef's molecular menu, which reads like the alcoholic version of a Top Chef episode; their Vanilla Hickory Smoked Manhattan arrives under glass, the namesake smoke infusing the drink before your eyes. But craftsmanship like this comes at a price- most cocktail bars charge at least 15 dollars per drink and the aforementioned manhattan is a whopping 45 bucks!
(Photo: Atomic Books)
To recreate these artistic concoctions at home, pick up a copy of The American Cocktail which includes 50 recipes from some of the best bartenders in the country. Don't worry, none of them involve trapping smoke under glass, though the ingredient lists can get a little long. The results are worth it though and your guests will be much more impressed than if you poured a boring old gin and tonic.
(Photo: Outblush)
Most of the recipes include spirits that are readily available in liquor stores and produce from your standard grocery store (or even better, local farmers' market). In some cases, specialty ingredients are called for, like flavoured bitters. Fee Brothers is a popular brand with a wide assortment of flavours to enhance traditional cocktails or to create your own masterpiece. The more adventurous home-based foodie can even make homemade bitters.
(Tequila and Sage Smash, Photo: Huffington Post)
Creating cocktails like this can be an expensive proposition, so you might want to start slow by brightening the flavour of more traditional drinks with herbs. The Huffington Post provides a list of 5 herbaceous libations, including the simply delicious Tequila and Sage Smash.

Or get Food & Wine's new Cocktail app, which lets you search recipes by the alcohol that you have on hand or hunt down the best bars to try the latest and greatest cocktails in your area. Cheers!
Heart of Glass
It's Foodie Tuesday!
After a weekend of over indulgence for our American readers it may be hard to believe that this is just the start of the holiday season, but there are definitely still festivities to come, and that's why this post is dedicated to designer glassware. Along with silverware, glassware touches the lips making it integral to the dining experience. If you want to really wow your guests splurge on the good stuff and say goodbye to mismatched wine glasses. Here are a few examples beautifully designed drinking vessels that will keep things sparkling for a long time to come:
carafe and glasses by Bib&Sola
Bib&Sola make some fun and fabulous handblown glassware. I am especially smitten with this Ash carafe and glass set in rainbow hues. Truly a unique piece that will look just as spectacular on a shelf as on the table.
chisel glassware (set of four) from zgallerie
Give your guests the Midas touch with this set of gold foil-enhanced glassware. Wouldn't these be completely lux on a holiday table? You can also get the same set in silver, but I'm especially partial to the muted gold.
Mori Sake Cups from canoe
This petite set of sake cups are not technically glassware because they're made of ceramic, but they are too cute to ignore, and completely gift-worthy. Each cup feautures a unique grooved pattern that influences how the cup is held. They even come in a little pine box for gifting or storage.
Norman Copenhagen Whiskey Glasses by Bodie and Fou
Whiskey has become the cool drink in town. Connoisseurs know there is both an art and a science to drinking whiskey and these designer glasses take care of both. The elegantly rounded base nestles in the hand and the shape ensures that temperature, aroma and volume are all in perfect alignment.
wheelie bike pint glasses by vital
Like bicycles and beer? These pint glasses by vital combine great design and a relaxed sense of whimsy. They're also probably a great present for your impossible to buy for younger brother. He will be pleased, I promise.
Revolution Glassware from luminaire
Last of all is the Revolution set that I hesitate to categorize as glassware; they are much more like sculptures. The volume proportions of each glass are a play on positive and negative space. This is really a set for collectors and aficienados of great design.
Those are just a few of my top picks, but I think glassware, more than any other table accessory, is a matter of personal preference. When looking for new glasses pick them all up and hold them a moment until you find one that feels just right.
A Shot of Steamy
It's been gray, damp and dreary where I live. It's so blah and depressing, it can attract all sorts of melancholy thoughts and sad memories, as the chill moves up from the toes and threatens to move into the heart and head.
Back off, I say.
But then again, this is perfect napping weather. as long as you can cuddle up with something hot and steamy, and I don't mean Hugh Jackman. I'm going along the lines of something you can pour in a cup and sip, although I wouldn't mind having a mug of something like Hugh if the opportunity came along.
Here are some examples of steamy hotness that get me (and hopefully, you) through bouts of dull weather or spates of blues.
Hot Chocolate
Chocolate is my happy drug of choice. The first mouthful is the best. It's when I feel an overwhelming sense of relief, which brings out a sigh that releases all that pent up tension, and suddenly all is right in the world. Chocolate is seriously magical stuff.
Order it, make it from a mix, or make it from scratch, it'll hit the spot as long as it's intense and concentrated — I would use two packs of mix if one is too weak.
The best hot chocolate I've ever had is from a Max Brenner's cafe. They serve it in this humongous custom-made mug that fits perfectly in my hand, radiating warmth and happy energy. The concoction itself was Mayan bliss! It packed an extra zing — a hit of chili, nutmeg, cinnamon, and pepper. Woohoo!
The use of warm, earthy, sexy spices — such as cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, star anise — make these other drinks all the more cuddle-worthy.
Masala Chai, which literally means "spiced tea", otherwise known simply as "chai", can be made by steeping tea with a mix of spices, such as cinnamon, cardamom, peppercorns, cloves and ginger. It transforms your regular black tea into something so exotic and fragrant and gorgeous. It's wonderful with milk, but I also love it without.
Here's a recipe from Sanjeev Kapoor.
Hot Ginger-Honey-Lemon Drink
I've got a scratchy throat and sniffles, and my sweet darling sister made me a hot cup of comforting deliciousness that had ginger, honey, and lemon in it. It was incredibly soothing and made me feel a whole lot better and happier.
Now if you want something even sexier, kick it up a notch — add some liquor! Ha! You've then got true blue toddies in your hands.
Hot Toddies
There are lots of versions of toddies, but here is a pretty easy-to-make hot ginger toddy.
Mulled Wine
This is a such a cozy orange-y clove-y drink. Here's a recipe from Gin and Crumpets.
Hot Butter Rum
How can you go wrong with butter and rum? They're great as an ice cream flavor, and as ingredients in bananas foster. And as a drink, they're rich, decadent, and a little bit heady. Here's how to make it.

UTASP addresses the University's Strategic Goal #3: Achieve academic excellence and expand learner experiences based on best practices in instruction, involvement in inquiry, and the use of practical environments.
UTASP proposes to expand its pilot program to include 5 additional faculty members who teach Information Technology and Computer Applications (CCIS 100) and First-Year Seminar I and II (CGED 100 & 101) courses; these courses will be changed to interactive, technology infused classes. The technologies to be used include Web-CT, multi-media presentations, web-based student response systems, podcasts, vodcasts, and online interactive research. Students will be required to utilize their laptops or other web-enabled devices in class to complete assignments and do research. The anticipated result is that 80% of faculty members participating in the program will adapt their teaching style to use technology to enrich all their classes. A survey will be used at the end of the academic school year to measure the results.
UTASP plans to create a technology support services unit for first-year students during the 2011 & 2012 program year. The academic support services unit (The Unit) will use technology to provide academic support services including research assistance, online tutoring sites, social networking to facilitate peer-peer collaboration, guidance for major projects, and use of software and technology tools. The Unit will have a virtual and a physical space for students to get the support they need. The physical space will be equipped with computers that have the latest educational software, such as WriteCheck, and technology such as flip-videos. All first-year students would qualify to use the service by registering on the website. It is anticipated that those students who are frequent (10 or more times in a semester) users of The Unit's services will have a GPA that is .25 points above the average GPA for all first year students.
