((OOC: Today has not been my day. xD I got all excited this morning since I got a text message from my school and I thought that it was closed, but it ended up not being the campus that I'm on. So, then, some genius (or the school is just rude) had to set off the fire alarm in my dorm. So, we had to go outside and I think that it was maybe 4-6 degrees outside at that time and snowing. (I feel bad for the girl who had to get out of the shower and go outside). Then my laptop crashed and I lost what I was working on. And just now, I managed to break the little hot/cold circle thing in one of the showers. I don't even know how, but it's loose now. xD Whoops. xD))
Lucario nuzzles Tyson apologetically. The aura Pokémon's experience came from his former trainer. Before he'd ended up in Tyson's care he'd been trying to return to his former trainer who'd released him then turned and walked away without hesitation. Lucario had assumed it had been a mistake and tried to follow after him, to no avail. After a few weeks alone anons had come and told him that if he got in a Pokeball they'd take him to a new trainer. Lucario had agreed eagerly and been given to Tyson. Lucario was fond of the former soldier, even if his initial reaction to him had been to yelp, hide, then return Lucario to his Pokeball. From what he'd discussed with Tyson's other Pokemon, they had similar stories, aside from Poochyena who had been wild.
Tyson smiled fondly at Pikachu, his behaviour reminded him of Bobby. The over eager Dalmatian would spend hours on end trying to get Tyson to play fetch or go on walks. Aside from his midnight attempts Tyson nearly always agreed. He kept his dogs to a military standard but Bobby was still a puppy and playing was important to help him develop. There were activities that Tyson wouldn't let him do, playing in the drinking fountain or pester the people in the apartment above him, but for the most part he was given a long leash and told to 'have at'.
Tyson glanced down at Lucario and smiled softly. He reached back down into his bag and took out a tennis ball. He threw it up in the air for Lucario then began putting them items that had been in his bag back in as best he could. Tyson had a form of low level OCD which meant he had to put them back in a particular order.
Lucario gave a cheerful cry then went back over to Pikachu with the yellow ball in paw. Tyson's know many creatures, but a universal truth was that you would get any of them to play with a brightly coloured ball.
The yellow rodent's head tipped back to eye Tyson when he felt the older man looking at him, his tail wagging slightly at the small show of attention from the rather stranger man. His eyes followed Tyson's motions when he reached down into his seemingly magically bag, at least in the eyes of the rodent, as all bags impressed him due to the fact that he couldn't carry one. A bright ball was taken from it, grabbing the full attention of the Pikachu. His large eyes widened, attempting to take in the sight of the strange object, mesmerized by it. His eyes followed the ball into the air, not knowing what to make of the object.
His interest only picked up when Lucario came over to him with the bright object. His little nose twitched in a curious manner, trying to place some sort of sent to the ball. He quickly gave up, wanting nothing more than to play with the object himself. He waddled up to the other Pokemon, staring at the ball for a moment before poking it. Satisfied with the fact that nothing happened, he pulled the ball from Lucario and crawled back over to Red, dropping the object on his master's foot. Doing so was the best way to get Red's attention, as he spaced out rather often due to how much he tended to worry.
Crimson eyes glanced down at the object, glancing over to Tyson briefly before he picked it up. Honestly Tyson had some strange objects on him, at least in the mind of the rave-haired teen. Then again, coming from a small town and being poor, Red didn't have many luxuries in his life and that included simple objects such as tennis balls. Heck, finding a stick used to make his day as a child. He clearly didn't have many standards for the 'toys' that he had played with as a child.
A high and impatient squeak ripped him from his thoughts, eyes moving back o the Pikachu waiting at his feet. He glared at the creature for a moment, scolding him for taking away what Lucario had been given to play with. He then turned the ball around in his hand for a moment to inspect it before pulling his arm back quickly. With his and held up high, he hurled the ball into the air and across the field in a quick motion. The small rodent let out a happy cry before he raced off in order to capture the object. The small rodent had never played such a game before, but it seemed simple enough and forced him to involve his trainer, of whom he seemed to enjoy making uncomfortable.
Ah, Touya couldn't help but wonder what kind of things Red had heard about Unova before. Hopefully good things, after all his home region was a good place! They had so many things to offer, even if it was especially busy compared to the quieter regions like Kanto. The boy had visited the region's bigger cities already; especially Saffron City after hearing quite a bit about it. However it was a let down when he thought of Castelia City. There were no skyscraper, no real industrial district or anything of that sort! Sure, they had a few tall buildings, but they weren't anything special to someone used to the hectical life of Unova.
"If you don't mind me asking, what did you hear so far?" he asked shyly, regarding Red with a look that resembled an eager puppy waiting for a treat. All wondering didn't help if he couldn't end the growing stream of question that welled up inside him! "Do you plan on visiting Unova some day? I- I can assure you that it's worth a journey, really!"
Noticing that he might be overdoing it, Touya shyly lowered his gaze and cleared his throat. "S-sorry… It's just, whenever I hear about home, I get somewhat excited…" he explained sheepishly, laughing quietly in the back of his throat. "Maybe that's what people call homesickness, eh?"
Unova…or at least of what the raven-haired teen had heard about it, made Kanto look like a speck on the ever-growing map of the world that they lived in. Kanto had never been known for having impressive cities, but, to Red, they seemed to be larger than life. The thought of what Unova must be like always frightened him in some odd way, though his lack of ability to socialize didn't help that matter. He could barely handle the larger cities in the Kanto region, much to his Pikachu's dismay, without the dreadful feeling of panic overtaking his rather easily overwhelmed mind. Even the very concept that there were cities larger than Saffron seemed like some sort of terrible joke to the boy, made only to make him feel sick to his stomach at the concept.
Clearly, he couldn't exactly outright say such things to the cheerful brunet in order to answer the question that he had been asked. For one thing, the amount of words that he would need to express such a feeling were far too many and he highly doubted that his voice would last past the first sentence or two. It was sad really, no wonder he was never surprised when trainers were disappointed upon meeting him. The media spoke of him like a legend when, in reality, he was an awkward teenager who fled at even the sound of a conversation being started.
"…That's it's…big." Good job, that was a grade A response. Sometimes, he could honestly kick himself for what he said sometimes and would have strongly considered doing so if he didn't know that a certain yellow rodent would fry him if he turned tail now. According to the Pokemon, this type of interaction with others was healthy and, while Red would have begged to differ, he also wasn't rude enough to simply walk away. He had nothing against Touya it was more so the fear that he was causing the other more trouble than he was worth that made him want to flee.
He nodded his head once in reply to the boy's second question. "Some day" happened to be the keywords in the other's statement, as he wanted to travel to the regions that he had yet to set foot upon in order to see newly discovered Pokemon that he would not be able to see in Kanto. He however, had to work up the courage to travel to the rather populated region before he could even begin to prepare himself to do so.
"It's…fine." He smiled gently in response, though it came out as an awkward twitch of his lips rather than what he had been intending and the small chuckle that escaped his Pikachu's mouth displayed that fact. He could understand the feeling of being homesick well, as he often looked back to Mount Silver longingly, but even when he had fled to the mountain he had missed Pallet Town. He nodded his head once again, to show that he understood.
"…What is it…like for…you?" It was a rather sad attempt for conversation and could have easily been confused with their previous topic, despite the fact that he was aiming to ask the boy about what he thought of his home region or what Unova was like in the eyes of someone who had been there.
(( Welcome back! And good luck with your new school and everything :] ))((Thank you so much!^^))
((OOC: I'm back! I won't get to actually replying to people until tomorrow night or the day after. I have a really awkward schedule at my new school and I've been told that my major is a pain in the butt, so I'll be slow as always.
So, to those of you role-played with me, please like this post if you want to continue where we left off. If you don't than I'll assume that you don't want to. I look forward to role-playing on here once again and I apologize if Red is more awkward than normal, as I'm trying to get him to come back to me at the moment.
I still plan to do my giveaway and I'll get more information on that once I'm settled in again.))

((OOC: Important!
I'm really sorry guys, but I think that I might need to take a break from here. I've been stressed and very busy lately, which isn't going over well with my muse. I can't keep up with everything right now. I'm getting my fist table at a convention in a little bit over a month from now and thanks to it being last second on my part, I have nothing to sell so I really need to dedicate my time to that. Plus, I'm changing schools and I have no real idea as what my new school will be like (I was planning to take a break that week to get my feet in the water there.) I'm very sorry. This was a hard choice for me, since Red is one of my favorite blogs (I honestly shut down or took a break from all but like one of my blogs).
I may or may not reply every so often on my break (I want to try), but if not I hope to be back sometime after the 21st if all goes well and my new school isn't too much for me to handle.
I'll be putting up my giveaway when I return.
I feel horrid for making people wait, because all of you are honestly amazing. I look forward to role-playing with al of you once I come back. Thank you for understanding.))

|( I hope you have a great one, as well! c: ) The brunette smiled warmly at Red, nodding her head. "You are oh-so very welcome." She said, her eyes shifting over to the chubby rodent. The girl watched as Pikachu opened his gift, revealing two small items. One was a Light Orb, and the other was a bracelet, with a Pichu charm, Pikachu charm, and Raichu Charm attached to it. "I hope this is alright -- I did not know what to get you two. . ." The brunette said, looking down at the pikachu. "Hm?"
The Pokemon called out happily as he opened the gift, taking the light orb in his little paws and the bracelet in his mouth in order to take the items to Red to show his trainer. He placed them into Red's hands, wagging his tail happily before moving back towards the girl. The raven-haired teen smiled gently at the two gifts, it has been very thoughtful of her. He shook his head lightly, attempting to tell her that it was more than all right. The idea was kind and it meant a lot to him.
Pikachu squeaked gently when she looked down at him, holding up the small gift that he had taken out of Red's back. It wasn't much, but it was all that he could offer the girl on such short notice. Red wished that he had something more to offer her than the apple (of which had been intended for the Pikachu) and the small cat necklace (a gag gift also intended for the Pikachu) that were inside of the small package that the rodent was holding up to her.
((Thank you!^^))

I made this for Easter and everyone loved it. I prepared the pan by smearing it with stick butter and followed up with the bread crumbs. Once it was baked, I used a rubber spatula to loosen up the sides before I inverted the cake to a pan - it came out beautifully! Also FYI this was made in high altitude (6500 ft) and I did not have to adjust the recipe.

When the Irish meet Brown on Saturday, it will mark one year to the day that Kyle McAlarney was arrested on marijuana possession.
McAlarney would be thrown out of school in the days and weeks to follow.
He wasn't sure if he would ever return.
But after head coach Mike Brey paid a visit to his home in Staten Island, McAlarney decided Notre Dame was where he still wanted to be.
This fall he returned.
He spent months practicing in empty arenas waiting for the days to return back on the court with his teammates.
That finally happened on November 2nd in an exhibition game against St. Ambrose.
Along the way, big moments have occur ed---like a return home to New York City and a dazzling performance in the Jimmy V Classic at Madison Square Garden in front of his family and friends.
Since then, he's been on fire on the court. He's the 2nd leading scorer on the team, averaging just below 15 points a game.
He's shooting a remarkable 48% from beyond the arc.
Most importantly, he's one of Mike Brey's most reliable players and a key reason the Irish are off to a great start.
K-Mac says he doesn't think about what happened a year ago anymore. He feels like it was 10 years ago.
He says its completely in his past now a blip on his career resume.
If he continues as a leader the way he has so far this year, that's what it will always be looked at---just a blip.

Is a cubed hard boiled egg supposed to make it easier to chop up? Or is it there just because you *can* cube a hard boiled egg and so, if you can, then surely you'll *want* to.
There are egg molds that will turn a hard-boiled egg into a star, fish, teddy bear, car, or heart shape. eBay has a lot of sellers of bento supplies, and many of them carry the molds.
Not sure what advantage there is to a cube-shaped egg, except that maybe deviled eggs won't wobble on the plate.
I really did not want to "pipe my own pate a choux" into hot dog shapes (I secretly wished I could find a local bakery that carried/could make them)... would be a great party appetizer vs. pigs in a blanket. I wanted to make mini chicago dogs w/all the mini-fixin's.
I think the point of the egg shapers, especially in the bento-making community, is that they're cute. It's an asthetic thing, not a useful one.
Thanks for the cookie shout out! These truly are some of the best cookies I've ever had!
True Tiamat!
I couldn't think why anyone would want square eggs, but bento makers might.
My grandmother used to have an egg press just like that! I loved that stupid thing to pieces!
i need that egg thing just because it's crazy.
Actually, yes, I do think that the square egg mold could be useful for bento. But that's about the only time it might be good for.
The tabletop grill is kind of cute, but I'd much rather have a simple electric model. This one seems small, and difficult to store.
Okay, I have to know...how does that egg cuber work?
Do you cook the egg inside or does it "press" the egg somehow?
@engill: I assume this one works like most others, in that you boil the egg, peel it while it's still fairly hot, then put it in and let it cool off while it takes the shape of the mold.
The question is why do you need a square egg? It might be a sort of a good idea for deviled eggs but then you couldn't use your nifty deviled egg tray to serve them in.
Hrm. That cookie recipe is actually just stolen from allrecipes.com and has oreo's added to it. Sugarcooking does credit it, but it felt a bit like false advertising to me, since I was expecting something new that lots of people hadn't seen (the original recipe has close to 4000 reviews).
Besides, if it ain't broke, why fix it.
The Egg Cuber! I had completely forgotten I owned one, which shows just how often I use it. But, to be fair, that thing is just silly goofy fun.

The author discusses two areas of psychophysiological research that may
be relevant to the diagnosis and treatment of sexual dysfunction:
investigations of sexual arousal in men and studies of nocturnal penile
tumescence. There has been no convincing evidence to date of a predictable,
generalizable autonomic response pattern to sexual arousal, but
neuroendocrine research in this area has shown promise. A close temporal
relationship has been found between REM sleep and penile tumescence in
normal men-deviations from this pattern may be related to sexual
dysfunction. The author suggests that further research is necessary in
these areas of potential diagnostic and prognostic significance.

Carpet cleaning, need some input
I'm debating on renting a carpet cleaner to clean my carpet. Carpet is 4 years old but is in very good shape (no kids, pets, ect). It barely shows any wear, but I'm doing some furniture re-arranging so I thought maybe this is a good time to clean the carpet since it's never been cleaned.
Figured I'd rent a carpet cleaner for the weekend and clean it, but I'm wondering if I should even bother since it's not in that bad of shape, although I'm sure it's full of dust. I've also heard stories of carpet cleaners pulling your carpet too hard and leaving you with waves and crap in the carpet.
I'd rather do it myself than pay someone, any input, what kind to rent or if I should even bother with it.
whether to even bother is strictly your call, we don't live or visit there so what do we care, I can't see it from my house.
I've been told that the self rentals don't compare to the truck mounted units used by the pros. I also was told that laundry detergent works better (or just as good) than the carpet shampoo they sell with the rental.
Actually, I'd have the pros do it. they have the spot cleaners and can knock out a whole house in a couple of hours and the price is very reasonable.
When someone tells me: "I don't know the first thing about something.", I take the time to wonder what that first thing is. In the case of cleaning carpets, the very first thing to know is that SOLID soils are very much harder to remove from wet surfaces than from dry surfaces.
Next time you're at the beach, try cleaning sand off of wet feet (to put your socks on) as opposed to dry feet. You'll find that cleaning sand off of wet feat is like fighting with a black bear, whereas cleaning sand off of dry feet is MUCH easier.
And, it's exactly the same with carpet.
A good quality vaccuum cleaner in good running order will remove the dust from your carpet FAR BETTER than a carpet shampoo'er simply because the vaccuum cleaner doesn't get the carpet WET! Once the carpet is wet, the surface tension of the water will keep the dry solid dirt stuck to the carpet pile very much like glue. Since a vaccuum cleaner doesn't wet the carpet pile, IT should be your tool of choice to remove dry soils (like dust) from your carpet.
In fact, even the owner's manuals for these "toy carpet shampoo'ers" made by Bissell, Hoover, Eureka and others will tell you to vaccuum the carpet normally before using their toy carpet shampoo'er on it.
So, in a nutshell: You use a vaccuum cleaner to remove dry soils from carpet. You use a carpet shampoo'er (or extractor) to remove dried up liquid stains from carpets.
In fact, if you know where the dried up liquid stain is (and you can usually tell cuz dust and dirt will stick to the drying liquid, making the carpet appear darker in colour), you can do as good (if not better) a job using just these two tools to remove the dried liquid spill:
The garden variety wet/dry vaccuum cleaner will have as much, or more, suction than a rented carpet shampoo'er, and the spray bottle will allow you to spray on a cleaner that will dissolve the dried liquid. Typically water is all you need for water based stains, but other stains like ink and blood will require a special cleaner in the water to help dissolve the stain.
Once the stain is dissolved in the cleaner, you can remove it from the carpet simply by pressing the suction hose of the wet/dry vaccuum cleaner directly against the carpet.
Carpet shampoo'ers are best used in bars and restaurants where it's not knows what kind of liquid was spilled on the carpet, or where.
PS: about me: I own a small 21 unit apartment block and I own a TMI carpet extractor with a 100 psi pump and two 3 stage vaccuum motors piped in parallel. That's typical of what professional carpet cleaning contractors use.
Your typical Hoover canister vaccuum cleaner will have a single stage vaccuum motor that's lucky to be able to life a column of water 30 inches high.
Your typical wet/dry vaccuum cleaner, car wash vaccuum cleaner and rental carpet shampoo'er will have a two stage vaccuum motor that will draw a column of water about 60 inches high at sea level.
Your typical entry level professional carpet cleaning equipment will have a three stage vaccuum motor that will lift a column of water about 90 inches high at sea level.
My carpet extractor has two 3 stage vaccuum motors piped in parallel and will lift a column of water 113 inches high at sea level (according to it's specs).
Your typical truck mount unit will have 6 two or three stage vaccuum motors piped in parallel and all driven by a gasoline engine, and will suck a golf ball through a garden hose.
The quest for suction comes from the blindingly obvious fact that the more soiled soap solution you can get out of the carpet, the cleaner the carpet will be when it dries.
Both Rug Doctor and Easy Off recommend using 1 to 2 fluid ounces of their carpet soap per gallon of soap solution. That means, 5 to 10 ounces for a machine with a 5 gallon solution tank.
My TMI extractor has a 5 gallon solution tank, but the Chem-Spec Formula 77 that I use calls for only 1 to 2 fluid ounces of soap for every 5 gallons of cleaning solution. That means, that Chem-Spec calls for about 1/5 of the amount of soap that RugDoctor or Easy-Off recommend.
And, because professional extractors will have more powerful vaccuum motors than rental machines, you can bet that the professional equipment will remove MORE of the soiled soap solution from the carpet than a rental machine.
So, if you follow RugDoctor or Easy-Off's advice, you'll spray way more soap on your carpet than a pro would, and you'll suck up much less of that soap solution (cuz a rental machine will only have ONE two stage vaccuum motor whereas the pro's equipment will have several of them).
And, as that carpet dries, the residual soap that remains behind forms a sticky film on the surface of the carpet fibers. Dirt sticks to that soapy film, making normal vaccuum cleaning ineffective at removing dirt and dust from the carpet.
In fact, about the only way of removing the dirt sticking to the soapy film on a carpet is to shampoo the carpet again. And, of course, the homeowner renting the carpet shampoo'er is going to be impressed with how much dirt the carpet shampoo'er has removed from the carpet (judging by the colour of the water in the recovery tank), that he's likely going to start using a rented carpet shampoo'er on a regular basis.
It doesn't cross that homeowner's mind that the real reason that shampoo'ing the carpet removed so much dirt was because the carpet was sticky with residual soap to begin with. If the homeowner had not followed the rental machine's instructions, he would have had far less of a soap film on his carpet to begin with, and normal vaccuuming would have removed most of the dirt that is now in the carpet shampoo'er recovery tank.
So, if you feel compelled to rent a carpet shampoo'er, then:
A.) please don't follow RugDoctor or Easy Off's recommendations to use 1 to 2 gallons of their carpet soap per gallon. Instead, buy your gallon of carpet soap from any place listed under "Janitorial Equipment & Supplies" in your yellow pages phone directory, and follow the dilution instructions on that gallon.
B.) If you do follow RugDoctor or Easy Off's instructions to use 1 to 2 fluid ounces of soap per gallon of cleaning solution, then make a final pass over the carpet with just clean water in the solution tank to remove most of the residual soap from the carpet.
In fact, it'd be best to do that final cleaning with a cup of vinegar in the 5 gallons of solution tank water. The reason why is that carpet cleaning soaps are naturally alkaline in nature, whereas most foods are slightly acidic in nature. The acidic food is attracted to the alkalinity caused by the residual soap in the carpet pile. By putting a cup of vinegar in the final 5 gallons of pure water in the shampoo'er's solution tank, any residual alkaline soap in the carpet will be neutralized, and the residual acidity left behind on the carpet pile will help prevent future food spills from sticking to the carpet pile.
This is one subject I consider myself to be very knowledgeable about, so if you were confused by anything, please post again and outline what you're confused about.
You can do better removing stains from a carpet using a wet/dry vaccuum cleaner and a spray bottle than hiring some professional monkey with a truck mount vaccuum unit in his van.
Thanks for the reply, it has a lot of good info. I've pretty much ruled out calling a monkey with a truck mount vacuum. My main thing now is...should I really even mess with cleaning it. There are virtually no stains....I'm only considering cleaning it because it has never been cleaned (4 years old) so I'm guessing that it's full of dust that my regular vacuum may not be picking up. Thoughts??
I actually answered your question last night, but when I hit the "Submit Reply" button, I got a message saying that the first post of all new members would only be posted after being approved by the forum moderator. I guess they get too much advertising and spam on these boards.
MOST PEOPLE don't know the first thing about cleaning carpets with a carpet shampoo'er. That first thing is that getting a carpet wet makes it more difficult to remove solid soil (like dust) from the carpet. So, using a carpet shampoo'er to remove solid soils (like dust in your case) is very much like putting in a hearing aid and turning it off. The shampoo'er gets the carpet wet and that makes it harder to remove solid soils from.
Think of your experience at a beach. Sand will stick to wet feet but not to dry feet. That's cuz the surface tension of the water holds on to the sand grains and keeps them clinging to your wet skin.
It's exactly the same thing with shampoo'ing a carpet. If you get the carpet wet, the dust will stick to the carpet, making it more difficult to remove.
You use a VACUUM CLEANER to remove solid soil (like dust) from carpet. A good quality vaccuum cleaner will remove solid soil from carpet much better than any carpet shampoo'er will, even a truck mount unit, and that's simply because as long as the carpet is dry, the vaccuum cleaner simply has to overcome the force of gravity to get the dirt into the filter bag.
You use a CARPET SHAMPOO'ER to remove wet or dried liquid spills from a carpet.
(Terminology note:) A "carpet shampoo'er" has some form of mechanical agitation of the carpet pile. A "carpet extractor" has a pump and vaccuum motor just like a shampoo'er, but doesn't have any form of mechanical agitation. Most carpet cleaning contractors use extractors instead of shampoo'ers. That's because you really don't need to vibrate the carpet pile to lift dissolved liquids out of a carpet. With a vaccuum cleaner that vibration is important to allow solid soils to be released from the carpet, but it's not important for removing liquids from the carpet.
So, the very first thing to know about cleaning carpets is that if you're wanting to remove solid soils, getting the carpet wet is only going to make that job more difficult. You want to use a vaccuum cleaner to remove solid soils from a carpet. You only use a carpet extractor or shampoo'er to remove dried liquid spills from a carpet.
MOST people are under the misconception that carpet shampoo'ers clean carpets better than vaccuum cleaners, and that just isn't true. Each tool has it's own use; one for solid soils, the other for liquid soils.
If there aren't any liquid spills on your carpet, then cleaning the carpet with a good vaccuum cleaner is the best way of cleaning it.
Great explanation...sounds like I just need to get a good quality vacuum. Everything you said makes perfect sense. Just the answers I was looking for.

Online Basketball Betting, Tips and Odds
Basketball was invented in December 1891 by the Canadian clergyman, educator, and physician James Naismith.
Naismith introduced the game when we was an instructor at the Young Men's Christian Association Training School (now Springfield College) in Springfield, Massachusetts. At the request of his superior, Dr. Luther H. Gulick, he organized a vigorous recreation suitable for indoor winter play. The game involved elements of American football, soccer, and hockey, and the first ball used was a soccer ball. Teams had nine players, and the goals were wooden peach baskets affixed to the walls. By 1897-1898, teams of five became standard.
The game rapidly spread nationwide and to Canada and other parts of the world, played by both women and men; it also became a popular informal outdoor game. U.S. servicemen in World War II (1939-1945) popularized the sport in many other countries.
The set of 13 rules he devised back then are still the foundation of what we know as one of the world's most popular sports.
The ball can be thrown any direction with one or both hands, a player cannot run with the ball, goals should be made when the ball is thrown or from the ground into the basket.
There are more rules, obviously, but it's the fast paced, skill & action of a game that basketball fans the world over enjoy. And you bet that the players today are more skilled, more finely tuned, more daring and more competitive.
And it's grown from that game in a schoolyard to one of the most popular sports today.
Between 1893-1895, a number of US Colleges adopted the game. In 1934, the first college games were staged in New York City's Madison Square Garden, and college basketball began to attract heightened interest. By the 1950's basketball had become a major college sport, thus paving the way for a growth of interest in professional basketball.
The first pro league, the National Basketball League, was formed in 1898 to protect players from exploitation and to promote a less rough game. This league only lasted five years before disbanding; its demise spawned a number of loosely organized leagues throughout the northeastern United States. One of the first and greatest pro teams was the Original Celtics, organized about 1915 in New York City. They played as many as 150 games a season and dominated basketball until 1936. The Harlem Globetrotters, founded in 1927, a notable exhibition team, specializes in amusing court antics and expert ball handling.
In 1949 two subsequent professional leagues, the National Basketball League (formed in 1937) and the Basketball Association of America (1946) merged to create the National Basketball Association (NBA). The Boston Celtics, led by their center Bill Russell, dominated the NBA from the late 1950s through the 1960s. By the 1960s, pro teams from coast to coast played before crowds of many millions annually. Wilt Chamberlain, a center for the Los Angeles Lakers, was another leading player during the era, and his battles with Russell were eagerly anticipated. Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, also a center, came to prominence during the 1970s. Jabbar perfected his famed "sky hook" shot while playing for the Los Angeles Lakers and dominated the opposition.
The NBA suffered a drop in popularity during the late 1970s, but was resuscitated, principally through the growing popularity of its most prominent players. Larry Bird of the Boston Celtics, and Magic Johnson of the Los Angeles Lakers are credited with injecting excitement into the league in the 1980s through their superior skills and decade-long rivalry. During the late 1980s Michael Jordan of the Chicago Bulls rose to stardom and helped the Bulls dominate the NBA during the early 1990s. A new generation of basketball stars, including Shaquille O'Neal of the Orlando Magic and Larry Johnson of the Charlotte Hornets, have sustained the NBA's growth in popularity.
In 1959 a Basketball Hall of Fame was founded in Springfield, Massachusetts. Its rosters include the names of great players, coaches, referees, and people who have contributed significantly to the development of the game.
Basketball is quite possibly one of the most popular, most widely-viewed and most favorite sports in the world today, with most countries featuring their own professional local leagues. Australians
have also caught the basketball fever with their own local league, the NBL. This competition has been around since 1979, but financial difficulties have beset the formerly glorious teams. These setbacks have not done much harm on the betting interest in the league, and the market is still healthy enough for bookmakers to see a huge turnover weekly.
The NBA is also phenomenal in terms of betting business. ESPN and FOX air several live games weekly for the thousands of basketball fans. Some European leagues are also shown live on these sports
channels. Australians and international bookmakers rake in millions of dollars in wagers on the NBA every day of the season.
Freebetinfo is here to give you all the freshest and the most accurate betting information, stats and analysis for each NBA match throughout the season. We'll also let you in on how to claim hundreds of dollars of free bets from Aussie bookmakers that you can use on any basketball game you want to bet on. Check back often for these and more!
Hints and tips
Basketball is actually one of the more systematic sports that you can bet on because averages and past results really play a large part on the outcomes. The key to betting successfully on basketball games is patience. The NBL usually runs from Wednesday to Sunday, with games played every day. The NBA is a little different, with as many as ten games being played daily.
The sheer volume of games may confound an impatient punter who bets too much and too often. Venue can have a significant bearing on team performance, as home court advantage can spur a lesser team to victory against a strong contender. Teams usually play several games in rapid succession, and being on the road for too long can sometimes hamper their morale and fitness.
As a general rule, it's best to back a team that gives great defensive play because they tend to have consistent performance rates throughout the season. Under and over markets can be especially
lucrative when betting on high-scoring teams. It's also good strategy to put your money on teams with a deep bench because they can easily cover injured players. Even when the main man is out, you can count on up-and-coming players who will try to make it big.
Bet types
Unlike in other sports, head to head betting is usually the least favorite betting method for basketball. Spread betting is preferred because it levels the playing field between the strong and the weak teams, giving punters better value than they would otherwise have with an uneven match. You can get odds of more than $1.90, which is definitely a good value.
As already mentioned, the under/over market can also provide you with winning opportunities. All you have to do is bet on whether the total match will be under or over a particular spread given by the bookmaker. This is a good market if you have an extensive knowledge of past games.
Other popular bet types include futures betting such as the NBA or NBL championship winner, margin betting, half time / full time betting, highest scorer, plus many other types. Written below are a list of common bet types, plus continue to look below for the latest NBA championship odds.

Listen, they're beautiful, no?
So many colors of sound, so many changing moods…
The Hunchback of Notre Dame
The Hunchback of Notre Dame
Confiteor Deo Omnipotenti
Beatae Mariae semper Virgini
Beato Michaeli archangelo
Sanctis apostolis omnibus sanctis
To the big bells as loud as the thunder!
To the little bells soft as a Psalm…
And some say the soul of the city's the toll of
The bells….
The bells of Notre Dame.
Oh yeah, these screencaps will definitely need to be redone once the HD Diamond Edition comes out.
(Note: I do not know of the existence a Diamond Edition for the Hunchback of Notre Dame as of yet. Wishful thinking.)

It's been a while since the last — or first, depending on how you look at it — version of Nuggets News graced the front page of Roundball Mining Co. For this we apologize. We know how important it is to keep the Nuggets community as up-to-date as possible on everything concerning its favorite sports franchise, but this lockout has taken a serious toll on our passion… and that's hard to do. (more…)
With the Denver Nuggets already out of the playoffs and the NBA Draft a little over a month away, speculation on how the Nuggets will approach the draft and who it will take with the 22nd pick is firmly underway. Equipped with an enticing asset in Raymond Felton as well as the less attractive Al Harrington — both of whom are overshadowed at their respective positions by other teammates, thus making them somewhat trade-able — the Nuggets have the option to make a variety of moves if prompted.

Third Party Debate Coverage
Larry King, the host of Larry King Now on Ora TV, and and Christina Tobin, founder and chair of the Free and Equal Elections Foundation, will serve as moderator for a special 2012 Presidential debate. This debate will take place on October 23 at 9:00pm EDT at the Hilton Chicago and streamed LIVE here on Ora TV.Those debating are Gary Johnson (Libertarian Party), Jill Stein (Green Party), Rocky Anderson (Justice Party), and Virgil Goode (Constitution Party). Both Obama and Romney were invited, but declined the offer.
I know many of you probably believe that it is pointless to watch this debate because you feel that a third party candidate will not be going into office this year, but please do yourself the favor of staying an informed citizen. The two-party political system leaves a lot of voices silenced or unheard, so this is a great opportunity to hear alternative ideas for our country's future. The best part about this debate is that it's going to be ninety minutes long and features questions from both King and questions submitted by voters through social media (via the hashtag #AskEmThisLarry). The debate will also be broadcast on C-SPAN, Al Jazeera English and RT, as well as streamed online by Ora TV and Free & Equal.
Watch this tonight!

commented on GZ Roundtable: Initial reactions to the Xbox One
Honestly, I really don't see why people are freaking out like they are about this Xbox reveal. When you get down to it, what were we expecting? We actually SAW the console, which looks simply amazing, and some of the new innovative features included right out of the box. And that's not to say I particularly like the idea of moving my hand around and talking to the Xbox instead of just using a controller, but anyone who says that the snap and instant switching features weren't impressive is just lying. Also, no more annoying updates when you turn on the console, you are instantly into your games or whatever entertainment you were hoping to access, I feel that is something that was lost in all of this. Also it is 20 days from E3. E3. The most important interactive media event every year. To go into all of their new titles and franchises now would be like shooting off all of your fireworks on July 3rd. I know, and I am speaking from the perspective of a gamer here, that nothing would be worse than waiting for E3 only to say, "Yup, seen all of that already, nothing I didn't already know." E3 is gaming fans time, now is the time for the average guy who searches "new Xbox" into Google, to see all of the sports and stuff he likes. I would have loved nothing else than for the reveal to be a list of hardware specs and tons of game footage, but i'm a GAMER, I will follow E3 with interest, most people wont know what it even is. So if this event wasn't the by gamers for gamers event you were looking for, I turn your attention to E3.

Do the kids eat everything you make, or do they ever have picky moments? Please tell me I'm not the only one with the picky 3 year old occasionally when I slave all day to cook something I think he might like and then turns his nose up to.

Hi Alisha!
My kids totally have picky moments! Andrew and I really don't stress about what they're eating. I always give them whatever I made for dinner...sometimes, they love it and sometimes, they don't want it or are not hungry. We always say that cereal is always an option (I'm not going to make them starve at this age). For the most part, I'm pretty happy with what they eat (the less we "talk" about their dinner, the more they eat it). Don't stress! Don't give them a lot of alternatives...it's either what you made or cereal (or pb&j or something else easy...but always that...not a variety). Good luck!

What kind of slow cooker do you use? Do you have a suggestion for a good but inexpensive slow cooker for a newbie? Do those special features really make a difference?

I use a very basic slow cooker from Williams-Sonoma. It's 8 years old and not fancy. When shopping for a slow cooker, I would pick one that is oblong (not round) for longer cuts of meat (like brisket). I would also make sure it has a high and low setting. Don't forget to buy slow cooker liners! They're a life-saver!!

This is amazing! I had the kids playing outside - ran in and put the pasta in and ran back out - dinner cooked while we continued to play (noblocking water so no monitoring needed). And it was even better than regular pasta - less watery - and less dishes. This may be the most genius meal yet... Nora

Does the pasta have to be fully immersed in the sauce?

made this one yesterday and of course it was delish!! LOVE adding the spinach in ~ great way to get the littles to eat some greens!! =)

I've never tried the pasta in the slow cooker but I do chili and spaghetti sauce pretty regularly in it. I never brown the meat first. I just throw it in. It cooks up pretty well even without browning first. You don't get as big of chunks of meat that way, but still tastes good.

Green@Home: Saving While Shaving
Name: Aaron
Location: New York
Profession: AT Editor
All of our Green@Home posts have talked about the little things that, over time, can make a big impact. In our small Manhattan apartment, we're re-using shopping bags and making an attempt to buy locally produced food. One of the latest changes, I've made is to train myself to turn off the water while I'm shaving. This seems silly, but it was a habit that took a few weeks to break...
I used to let the water run while I shaved. Now I only turn it on to rinse the blade. It's a no-brainer (like turning the water off while brushing your teeth), but it was a habit that I needed to change.
Please send us photos and info on how you live green@home. This is not a contest, just a way to build up an AT inspirational database of sorts on how real folks are living greener at home.
Simple, straightforward ideas are welcome, like how you deal with your recycling bin in a small kitchen, and so are ambitious projects - like your amazing green roof. We hope to have a big archive of ideas to inspire us all by the end of the month.
In exchange for sharing your green@home ideas, Ecover is giving the first 100 of you that we post a thank you gift from their line of green products.
The submission form and all the details are here - hope to hear from you today.

I have a plug for my sinks valve. I plug the valve and fill the sink with hot water, shave ja rinse the blades in the hot water.
Shave in the shower. Shampoo your face when you do your hair, and start shaving. Bonus points if you have a dribble switch on the shower head. It's a good place to floss or use your battery powered WaterPik to clean your teeth too.

New Design Show Casting - Contractor/Carpenter
I just received this email from a casting director friend:
Looking for a male contractor/carpenter for a new cable television show. Our ideal candidate looks 33 to 40 yrs old, and has a great look and a GREAT, authoritative personality. He should be knowledgeable in all facets of carpentry, plumbing, electrical etc and be comfortable going into private homes and fix botched jobs. A contractors license preferred but not required. On camera experience is a big plus.
Please email your resume and photo (very important) immediately to
3 Comments
Wonder why the job description excluded women contractor/carpenters. Must be some good ones out there.
Why doesn't your friend just hire the original Mr. Fixit for his "fix botched jobs" program, Mike Holmes from Holmes on Homes. That's better than trying to copy the original Canadian program.
they are probably looking for a hot male carpenter to attract female viewers

When it comes to slaying zombies, it takes a combination of hard work and good nutrition to build a killer physique.
"I don't really subscribe to the whole "every actor has a six-pack" says Norman Reedus, who plays Daryl Dixon on AMC's The Walking Dead. "I don't get it. Every cop doesn't have a six-pack. Instead of bulking up, I'm trying to look like I'm starving— and surviving a zombie apocalypse."
That's not to say that playing a crossbow-wielding hero on the hit series hasn't had an impact on Reedus's fitness. When the series began, he admits to being fairly out of shape. "I definitely had a bit of a stomach when we started Season 1," he says. "In Georgia, you've kind of got to watch what you eat. But the show is so physical that over the past three seasons I've lost about 20 pounds."
The intense physical strain of filming the show isn't thin only thing that's helped him lose weight, but it's certainly one of the most important. "Most of that sweat you see on us is legitimate, we're out there filming in Georgia's 120° heat all day, and I'm lugging around a 50-pound weapon," Reedus says. "I'm running all day long." To [indistinct] for the latest season of the show, Reedus has logged some grueling hours in the weight room. "I don't really ;like the big-box gyms - the ones where you're working out in front of people all the time. I like it to be a little quieter," the actor says. I worked with a trainer in a smaller gym in NYC, and I added a bit of muscle before we started filming again."
As for his diet, Reedus simply tightened up what he was eating. "The director wanted us to be skinnier since we were coming off the winter months, so I stopped drinking beer and based my meals around meat, fish, and vegetables," Reedus explains. "I cut out all the breads and pastas. I was eating more often, but the portions were smaller."
So far, the actor says the stricter diet and his improved fitness are really paying off in front of the camera. "Most of the scenes in The Walking Dead are of us running from one spot to another, and along the way you're killing 30 zombies," Reedus says. "During Season 1, my face was just bright pink from the exertion - everyone's was. Now that we're been in it for a while, it almost feels like second nature."
Killing Wise Guys and Zombies
Outside of The Walking Dead, Reedus may be most recognizable for his portrayal of Murphy MacManus in the cult classic The Boondock Saints - the story of two brothers in Boston who go on a "religious" quest to take out as many members of the Mafia as they can. It's a part Reedus never thought he'd land, but one that ultimately shaped his career. Despide being released more than a decade ago, the thriller still earns Reedus serious attention for his role on a surprisingly regular basis. "Some guys from the cast and I did a USO tour where we met all these brave soldiers in Djibouti, Dubai, and Ethiopia," he says. "And they love The Boondock Saints. They quote it in the field, and a ton of them had Boondock tattoos. That, to me, it my greatest accomplishment thus far. It was amazing."
