BUFFALO, NY (WKBW) - The latest Siena Research Poll shows Democrat Andrew Cuomo to have a commanding lead over Republican Carl Paladino in the race for New York State governor.
Cuomo leads Paladino 56 - 32 among likely voters. The poll also shows 59% of voters have an unfavorable view of Paladino and 61% agree that he "is a loose cannon, who doesn't have the temperament to be governor."
Voters see Cuomo as better on all issues, other than property taxes and state taxes, which they view the candidates as equal.
"With four weeks until voters go to the polls, Cuomo remains in a very strong position to be elected New York's next governor. Cuomo leads Paladino by 24 points among likely voters in a head-to-head matchup with both candidates on three ballot lines. Cuomo has a huge 70-17 percent lead in New York City, a strong 54-35 lead in the downstate suburbs and upstate voters are nearly evenly divided with Cuomo having 45 percent support and Paladino 43 percent," said Siena College pollster Steven Greenberg.
Cuomo is viewed favorably by 56 percent of voters and unfavorably by 37 percent. Paladino is viewed favorably by 30 percent and unfavorably by 59 percent.

"We put a basic picture of our daughter on the front and chose to put one photo of her dressed as superman and flying through the air (in her daddy's hands) on the back. We got a lot of praise from our friends and family about how cute the card was. Now the pressure is on to put on a great superhero party!"
"When I received these cards in the mail (early), I was happily surprised to see what good quality they were. Everyone I sent them to said how cute they were."
"I, along with the invited guests, loved the look and quality of this invitation. It perfectly captured what we wanted to present in a colorful and creative way."
"Adorable card! Perfect for my son's Halloween themed 7th birthday party! Quality work! Delivery was also speedy! Thank you Tiny Prints!"
"I used this card for a Thank-you card for my husband's golf theme 60th birthday party. I used a picture of him showing up for the surprise party after completing a golf game. I put 60 on the flag and included his name on the side and wrote a thank-you note across the bottom instead of using it as an invite. The product is once again of high quality and so I was thrilled to send them out. Quite a few of our friends and relatives have commented on the great thank-you card they had received and a few have asked where I got them from, which again I share Tiny Prints information."

Liberal Republican challenges in Rutland-3 primaryBy Gordon Dritschilo
Staff Writer | August 24,2014Dean Powers said that while he has campaigned for President Obamas Affordable Care Act, and his primary political goal is cutting carbon emissions, he still considers himself a Republican.
I believe in small government and I believe that welfare is a problem, both for people and for corporations, he said. Thats why Im a Republican.
Dean added, I know Ive got some liberal views. Im a liberal Republican, but I still believe, at the end of the day, the government should be small, the Second Amendment should be protected and we shouldnt be supporting people who are able to work.
The 32-year-old Castleton man is challenging Rutland District 3s two Republican incumbents Rep. Robert Helm and Rep. William Canfield in the districts first Republican primary in a decade. The district includes Castleton, Fair Haven, Hubbardton and West Haven.
The two winners of the primary will likely be unopposed in the general election, as no other names are slated to be on the ballot.
Powers said he is unemployed, though he previously lobbied for health care reform with the Maine Small Business Coalition.
I live with my parents, he said. Im not working right now. Im just campaigning.
Powers said he decided to run because of the environment.
Protecting the environment is a top priority, he said. Its a weakness of mine, something Im particularly concerned about.
Powers said he would like to see the Legislature do something to cut carbon dioxide emissions, but that he was short on specific proposals.
There are some good ideas out there, I guess, he said. Im supportive of anything.
Powers said he also thinks the state budget could be cut, but that he would have to get there to see where to make cuts.
Canfield, 61, of Fair Haven, has served five terms and says he cannot recall a primary challenge since his first race in 2004. He said his proudest accomplishment of his most recent term was a bill dealing with producer responsibility for disposal of household batteries.
Its going to be the manufacturers getting together with an association and theyre going to cover the cost, he said. Right now, you have to wait for hazardous waste disposal day. With this, you wont.
Canfield said the industry has until January to submit a plan to the state, and that the program will hopefully take effect in 2016. He said while he also hopes to get something done regarding the recycling of milk cartons, he expects next session to be dominated by health care reform.
Im looking at what other states might be doing and going in with an open mind, he said.
Canfield said he has become the ranking member of the House Natural Resources and Energy Committee, and that experience makes him invaluable to the district. He also said he has spent eight years on the Governors Veterans Advisory Council.
Helm, 64, also of Fair Haven, has served 12 terms. He said of late his principal accomplishments have been to chip away at little parts and pieces of the budget.
Thats where I spend most of my time, internal stuff nowadays, he said. Appropriations and not spending takes up most of my time. ... All in all, the budgets still out of control. The Republicans are a minority, very much so. The agenda is controlled by the other party.
Like Canfield, Helm said health care is going to be the main challenge of the coming term.
The thing Im going to try to do about it is make people understand they are in, financially, so far over their head there is no way to do it properly, or at all, he said, adding that Vermont simply lacks the tax resources.
We have no growth in this state, Helm said. Were old. ... Our young folks are heading south. I dont know who they think is going to pay for this.
Like Canfield, Helm said he was running on his experience.
I cant seem to pull myself away when things are such a mess as they are, he said. I think I know the ropes. I think I know my way around that place. I think thats what the constituency needs.

Reducing Youth Confinement: a Policy Platform
Despite significant reductions in the total number of incarcerated youth in the U.S. over the past decade, there remain alarming racial disparities for youth in lockup. Furthermore, simply diverting youth from facilities is not enough--young people must have access to the resources and support they need to thrive.
NJJN's new policy platform, "Reducing Youth Confinement," lays out pathways to reduce the number of youth in confinement for all youth, while reducing justice system costs, increasing community investments, treating youth equitably, holding systems accountable, and increasing community safety.

WASHINGTON - In my story on Astronomy Day 2014 I provided information on astronomy related activities that people can enjoy. For me, the best astronomy activity someone can participate in is a "Star Party," and we are now entering prime time for them.
At a star party you can meet with people who have telescopes and are more than willing to let you take a look through the eyepiece. This is a great way to "test drive" the different types of telescopes if you are in the market to buy one. You can also learn a lot about the night sky from listening to conversations as well as seeing the sky from a dark location.
If you go to a star party please follow the No. 1 rule of etiquette - no white lights allowed. This is because when it is dark white light from a flashlight will ruin people's night vision as well as the view in a telescope if the light enters the tube. You can buy red filters to cover regular Streamlight-type flashlights or fashion your own red light filter out of red colored plastic or film and use duct tape to attach it. Just make sure you test it at night to make sure it is "red" enough and not too bright.
In the DMV, there are a number of organizations that provide weekend "Star Party" events. They are usually once a month at a state or local park where there are darker skies and better views of the whole sky (read: fewer trees and buildings).
You can see a monthly listing of DMV astronomy events at the Astronomy in D.C. Website. This is a very nifty way to keep up on astronomy related events in our area. The site also has a comprehensive listing of resources, including yours truly.
Rain or shine, the Northern Virginia Astronomy Club (NOVAC) will host their Astronomy Day event from 3 p.m. to 11 p.m. Saturday, May 31 at Sky Meadows State Park. Each year this has been a real crowd- pleaser as NOVAC goes all out with providing facilities, telescopes and speakers for the general public, especially families, to enjoy.
NOVAC also hosts monthly star parties and has a listing of regional star parties.
Another favorite star party of mine is held monthly by the good folks from the National Air and Space Museum's Einstein Planetarium.
These outings are a great family activity, and it always brings a smile to my face to see a young child's first glimpse into an eyepiece and the resulting reaction/non-reaction. Actually adults too are fun to watch and hear the oohhs and ahhs" when they see the Moon or Saturn with its rings for the first time.
I hope you will make it out to one of these star parties this season. I think you will be glad you did and will be back again.

ECMWF, Shinfield Park, Reading, Berkshire, RG2 9AX, UK
Abstract. IASI measurements of spectral radiances made between the 1 April 2008 and the 15 April 2008 are compared with simulations performed using the RTTOV fast radiative transfer model utilizing regression coefficients based on different line-by-line models. The comparisons are performed within the framework of the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts Integrated Forecasting System using fields of temperature, water vapour and ozone obtained from short-range forecasts. Simulations are performed to assess the accuracy of the RTTOV computations and investigate relative differences between the line-by-line models and the quality of the spectroscopic databases on which the RTTOV coefficients are based.

Chaka Khan: A vegan diet helped me lose 60 lbs and get off diabetes drugs

"I had Type 2 diabetes and high blood pressure, so I went on a radical change of lifestyle."

celebrity fitness over 40
Singer Chaka Khan, who recently lost 60 pounds on a vegan diet, credits the plant-based eating plan with helping her get off her diabetes medication.
Khan, 59, says the lethal combination of excess weight, diabetes and high blood pressure motivated her to dramatically overhaul her diet.
"I had Type 2 diabetes and high blood pressure, so I went on a radical change of lifestyle," Chaka told the Detroit News.
Khan kick-started her stunning slim-down in 2011 by following a liquid diet for several months. The rapid weight loss and accompanying changes she saw in her health motivated her to cut dairy, meat and other animal products out of her diet.
"I was on liquids for a year, and that gave me a good jump-start," recalls the 10-time Grammy winner. "It sort of changed my whole way of thinking. You have to get the mindset first."
Khan was especially inspired to get in shape because she wants to be around to care for her adopted granddaughter. Chaka was awarded permanent custody of her 11-year-old granddaughter in December 2011 after a Los Angeles judge ruled the child's drug-addicted parents (including Chaka's son) were unable to properly care for her.
Now fitter and healthier than she has been in decades, Khan is ready to take on the world again and hopefully release a new album and go on tour in 2013.
Even though she's thinner now, Khan insists she was always sexy, even when she was heavy. "I've always been a sex symbol," she said. "When I was fat I was a sex symbol.

Drainspotting: Japanese Manhole Coversby Remo Camerota
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
In Japan, modern sewer systems began to appear during the late 19th century, though evidence of older sewage systems dates back to over 2,000 years ago. Foreign engineers introduced the Japanese to modern, underground sewer systems with above ground access points called manhoru (manholes). At first, Japanese manhole covers used geometric designs similar to those used in other countries. In the 1980s, when communities outside of Japan's major cities were slated to receive new sewer systems, the public works projects were met with resistance – until one dedicated bureaucrat solved the problem by devising a way to make these mostly invisible systems aesthetically appreciated aboveground: customized manhole covers.
Because the Japanese elevate design in all aspects of life to a new level, the custom covers were welcomed, even though they cost more than generic ones. Today nearly 95 percent of the 1,780 municipalities in Japan sport their very own specially designed manhole covers. Designs range from images that evoke a region's cultural identity, flora or fauna to landmarks and local festivals.
Unsurprisingly, this phenomenon has bred another phenomenon: manhoru mania. A rabid online community, based in Japan and abroad, has developed around this city-sanctioned urban art. Several blogs and websites dedicated to manhole covers provide details about locations and designs. With numerous colorful photographs organized by region, Drainspotting is the first book to document yet another wholly distinct aspect of contemporary Japanese visual culture.

Comparing the two QB's first 14 NFL starts.
Tebow's passer rating of 125.6 was the highest in Broncos postseason history. You get that memo Mr. Elway? Just a reminder, this was Tebow's first playoff game. Mr. Elway, your passer rating for your first playoff start in 1984 (coincidentally, against the Steelers) was 61.1.
Thank you, Josh McDaniels. The Denver Broncos win the game in OT with McDaniels first two picks in the 2010 draft, Tim Tebow and Demaryius Thomas. Tebow haters, what now?? Boo Ya!!!!!
Please share this link anywhere you can (Facebook, Twitter, etc.)
Need to get the facts out there!!
On Sunday, Tim Tebow will make his playoff debut. On December 24th, 1983, John Elway made his first playoff appearance. In that game, Elway and the Broncos lost to Seattle, 31-7. Elway had 123 yards passing, no TD's, 1 INT.
On December 18, 1983, John Elway and the Broncos lost to Kansas City, 48-17. In that game, John Elway went 13-34 (38.2%) with ZERO TD's, FOUR interceptions and 143 yards. It was the 11th game of Elway's career and his 10th start. His QB rating was 11.9.

Sprech Ginger Ale is much different than any other ginger ale we've ever sampled here at BevNET. Basically, the product has a very cool mouth feel and a subtle spice to the finish. This product has the best of both worlds -- sweetness and ginger spice. In addition, we really like the 16oz wide body bottle. It adds a lot of character to the product. Great stuff.

Replacing your classic haulers manual gearbox with an automatic tranny is a popular and practical swap, especially when an engine upgrade is part of your buildup. When you make the slush box switch, you have a wide and varied choice of shifters to suit just about any interior look or driving style.
Lokar offers one of the trickest setups to grab auto-box gears right through the original floor-shifters hump hole. The Lokar rig is both practical and retro-cool. Its practical because in many applications you dont have to modify the tranny hump. You can vary the shifter position to match the hump hole. And the Nostalgia shifter is ultra-ool because it has the same double-bend most vintage trucks floor shifters hadonly the Lokar stick comes in gleaming chrome. Its definitely double-take time when somebody checks out your cab. Hey, I thought you said you had an automatic?!
The Nostalgia shifter is available for Ford, GM, and Chrysler (Dodge) automatics, and the basic installation procedure is similar. We also liked Lokars Transmount Emergency hand brake. Like the Nostalgia shifter, it has a vintage look finished in bright chrome that bolts right to the shifters mounting bracket.
We first saw the Lokar shifter/e-brake setup when we took our 360 V-8/TorqueFlite 727-equipped 42 Dodge to Full Tilt Street Rods for a Wilwood hanging pedal installation (CCT, June 2000). We asked Clay Mullis to wrench the shifter and hand brake into place, too. As the following installation highlights show, the shifter is basically a bolt-on, and you might easily be able to do the work yourself, depending on your particular truck/tranny combo.

Conducting Talent: Give It Time to Mature
For better or worse, three conductors really changed the landscape, though I doubt they even knew at the time that they were doing that. All three achieved superstardom in their twenties, during the 1960s and early 1970s. They were conducting virtually nothing but the biggest and most famous orchestras and opera houses in the world by the time they were 30--that is, when they were ten or more years younger than Leonard Bernstein when he was identified as riskily young in 1958! The three conductors I'm referring to are James Levine, Seiji Ozawa, and Zubin Mehta.
Levine made his Metropolitan Opera debut just before his 28th birthday and was named principal conductor two years later, when he also became music director of the Ravinia Festival, summer home of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra. Ozawa became music director of the San Francisco Symphony at 35, and of the Boston Symphony Orchestra at 38. Zubin Mehta was before his 30th birthday leading the Los Angeles Philharmonic, and was guest conducting and recording with the Vienna Philharmonic, Berlin Philharmonic, and all of the world's leading opera houses. None of these conductors spent years as apprentices in any place like Aachen, or Wiesbaden, or Grand Rapids.
I mean to make no judgment about the careers of Levine, Ozawa, or Mehta. Clearly each has been an enormous success, and each has made major contributions to the music world. But there can be no question that their careers, when combined with the effects of publicity and television and instant gratification that came into being in the 1960s and 70s, changed the expectations of both conductors and music administrators, as well as those of the public.
Somehow lost was the idea of superb conductors developing their careers in smaller orchestras, either in the U.S. or in Europe. An excellent conductor at the age of 45, but one who had not yet achieved "stardom," came to be seen as passé. An attitude of "well, if he were any good, wouldn't he be further along by now?" tended to stick to that conductor.
We must, as a field, rethink this. Surely there will always be those who have the musical talent and personal maturity to be important music makers in their twenties; Gustavo Dudamel would seem to be that person now. But for every Dudamel, there are probably many other conductors who will reach the height of their artistry in their 40s or 50s. We do a lot of damage to our art form if we consider them "has beens" before they ever were.

Is anyone aware of a study that was done within the last few years on the age trends of conductors? I was told of one, and I am interested in finding it for a project I'm currently working on. I'm sorry I don't have more details, but if anyone knows where to find it, I suspect someone in this forum might.
I'm told that the study documented how conductors are traditionally thought to "reach their prime" in their later years.
I apologize for the vague description, but that is all I have to go on. I sincerely thank in advance anyone who is able to point me in the right direction.
I am not aware of such a study and I too would welcome any news of it.
-Henry Fogel
Well, for JG, it's not hard to name various elder statesmen/women in the arts:
Conducting (not including retired conductors):
Bernard Haitink
Sir Charles Mackerras
Sir Colin Davis
Nikolaus Harnoncourt
Charles Dutoit
Christoph von Dohnanyi
Georges Pretre
Visual arts:
Jasper Johns
Helen Frankenthaler
Claes Oldenburg
Gerhard Richter
Granted, I'm more up on music than the visual arts.
Mr. Fogel's point is quite valid that conductors need time to build their craft. However, regarding moving more towards "the big time", sometimes just dumb luck plays its role, when an orchestra happens to see a conductor for the first time and sparks fly. This is particularly the case with several European appointments in the last several years:
- Andris Nelsons to the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra
- Kirill Karabits to the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra
- Yannick Nezet-Seguin to the Rotterdam Philharmonic
There's also the whole question of how much of a role music managements play in manipulating conductors' careers and who gets invited where (yes, this is getting into "Maestro Myth" territory, so I'd better stop there). The question is also relevant as to how open-minded the US "Big Five" are to giving new faces a chance. For example, we have in several US "regional" orchestras conductors such as:
- Grant Llewellyn at the North Carolina Symphony
- David Loebel at the Memphis Symphony
When was the last time these people have been invited to "higher tier" orchestras? The one exception to that rule that I can think of is Miguel Harth-Bedoya, music director of the Fort Worth Symphony, who's conducted several times in Chicago, as Mr. Fogel well knows.
"Geo." is right to a degree about conductors of smaller orchestras and their ability to move upward in this field, though this situation is changing over the recent past, thanks in part to efforts of the League of American Orchestras. A few other examples -- Gian Carlo Guerrero, music director of the Eugene, Oregon Symphony, has conducted many of the major orchestras and has gone on to be music director in Nashville. In fact Eugene has a fabulous track recording - Guerrero's predecessor was Miguel Harth-Bedoya, mentioned by Geo., and Harth-Bedoya's predecessor in Eugene was Marin Alsop. But even before them, Semyon Bychkov launched a major international career from the Grand Rapids Symphony. And David Loebel, mentioned by Geo., has in fact conducted many of the major orchestras (including Chicago) and had a long position of Resident Conductor at the Saint Louis Symphony. So there are examples, but I agree that there are too few (and I agree that Grant Llewellyn is one of those who does deserve that kind of opportunity).
This trend is somewhat analogous to professional sports these days with kids straight out of high school signing with the NBA and baseball players spending maybe a year or two in the minor leagues before being brought up to the majors. In the old days, it was expected that you would start out in the "A" minor leagues, then work your way up to "AA" and "AAA" before the majors. (Come to think of it, back then baseball had "B," "C," and "D" leagues, too.)
A very wise comment from someone who knows the field!
The drawback of this attitude is that it may limit the growth possibilities of conductors as they age, as orchestras, opera houses and professional vocal ensembles seek the next new hot star rather than an older artist.
Conductors cannot grow in a practice room; they have to conduct actual ensembles, and they need time for study and reflection.
A parallel comment should be made about conductors in wealthy cities versus conductors committed to smaller communities or centers of music learning and research.
Beyond the undeniable talent of the young conductors, I suppose there are powerful social forces at play, including our longing for lost youth; the glare of fame and fortune; the narratives of child prodigies in Western music history... All these play well into marketing strategies that aim to attract new audiences for Western Classical music.
Thanks for bringing this topic to the professional dialogue.
I agree that conductors cannot grow in a practice room. But I guess I contend that for the most part, it is harder to grow in the glare of bright lights, and better to grow by conducting out of the spotlight of fame, with smaller, less visible orchestras, and let maturity come gradually. There are plenty of places for young conductors of talent -- over 400 professional orchestras exist in the U.S. alone. Anyhow, thank you for your addition to these comments.
Insightful comments (as ever. It has long seemed to me that the two conductorial career of the past 30 or so years which have developed most productively in the U.S. (other than Levine's) would be those of Tilson Thomas and Salonen. Not coincidentally, one suspects, they most closely followed the formerly traditional path Mr. Fogel describes. In addition to their own musical development, both men have proved to be fine orchestral builders. They were, of course, abetted in that by supportive management(s).
I agree. I remember when I was a student at Teatro Colon, Jesus Lopez-Cobos was the protege of Peter Maag. He held his coat, as we sued to say there, checked balance for the Maestro, and conducted some of the rehearsal at times. Look at what a splendid conductor he has become, making his way up through the ranks.
By the way, I think he had an excellent musician in Maag, whose work I respect enormously.
We *are* doing a lot of damage, not just in classical music but everywhere. Quick, name me some elder statesmen today, in nearly any artistic fleld. Hard to do, right? One-hit wonders (who are usually very young) and child prodigies are much, much more common, although it seems we may even be tiring now with the 6-year-old in pigtails who plays Mozart.
Don't forget about Thomas Schippers!
Absolutely, Henry! I would only add that it shouldn't just apply to conductors!

PDA kicked off 2012 with a powerful presence, greeting Democrats who participated there, getting impressive coverage, especially for asking Iowans to "send a message to President Barack Obama by organizing people to vote for uncommitted in the Iowa Democratic caucuses." Also in January, PDA leadership joined many of our Board members and allies presenting and leading panels at the second annual Congressional Progressive Caucus (CPC) Policy Summit in Baltimore, Maryland. As usual, we spent most of the time organizing and working, then heard our board member Jim Hightower, the featured speaker.
On Friday, September 12th more than 150 activists will go to DC and Demand that their Senators and Representatives support removing the ratification deadline from the ERA (SJ Res 15 and HJ Res 113)

If you are not totally savvy with the technological world, then you are not alone. While these gadgets and devices are vital to making a success in any industry, it does not necessarily follow that you have to be an expert in these things. The best thing you can do if this describes your situation is to hire Sacramento managed cloud IT services. Investing in something like this will help you get the most out of the things you have in place, will give you competent guidance at every step of the way, and will increase your ability to access important information and files from anywhere at any time. These are very important benefits that can come from this kind of system, and they only scratch the surface of all the things that you can get from investing in something like this.
You Will Get the Most Out of Your System
What is the point of having access to features and services that you are not going to use. This is like paying for a bundle of a million channels when you are only going to watch three of them. Many people do not take advantage of everything their existing system can offer because they simply do not know what it is capable of and how to use it. Hiring Sacramento managed cloud IT services will be helpful in showing you just what you have and how to get it to work for the needs of you and your company.
You Will Have Better Access to Files and Information
The best thing about this invention of the cloud storage space is that it has revolutionized the way people share and access information. When you invest in these kinds of services, you will be able to find, send, receive, download, and edit all of that important information no matter where you are. All you need is a device and a good Internet connection to make this work for you. Think about all the work you do from your office. Now think about how much easier it would be for you to complete that work if you did not have to do it all right there in the office. This opens up some pretty exciting doors for you.
You Will Have Competent Guidance
This is incredibly important for anyone that really doesn't understand how to best use computers. You want to be able to harness the power of the Internet, but that is hard to do if you have never been trained in using it in that way. Having Sacramento managed cloud IT services is very important as you will have someone there to hold your hand and guide you through the process. This will minimize your mistakes and maximize the ease with which you perform important tasks.

Taking A Leap Of Faith, As Depicted By James Harden & Daryl MoreyBasketball, J. Tinsley — By J. Tinsley on February 25, 2013 at 12:01 am
Change comes about in two ways. Either it's forced upon you, or you force it.
In the NBA this season, there've been a host of changes, as there are every year. The NBA is a makeover league. One predicated on who can look the prettiest, who can make the biggest splash, who can outdo the next person since we are dealing with a team sport marketed by individuals (which has helped spawn it into a multibillion-dollar, international conglomerate). More than any other league in American sports, the NBA is a dick-measuring contest. So yeah, changes are fruitful and occasionally prosperous.
Maybe more than any team in basketball, change has become the calling card for the Houston Rockets. It's been forced upon them, and they forced it. And it's made them better as a result. Hear me out.Tags: Daryl Morey, Houston Rockets, James Harden, NBA, Oklahoma City Thunder
I am still disgusted about this trade. As you know, James Harden is one of my favorite players in the League and when OKC drafted him, even before he played a second, I knew it was perfect for him and OKC. He was the man at Arizona State, but they hadn't won anything. Now he was able to be a complementary piece on a young team and he embraced it.
There's no way, absolutely no way, that I'll be okay thinking that Presti had to break this team up. That implies that I am unable to be forward-thinking by already having my mind made up about the present and the future, but that's how strong I feel about this here. Also, there's no way that I believe that Harden WAS NOT going to re-up. He woulda done so; the chemistry was that good, they were winning, the formula was organic and when it's all said and done, I truly think he would have left money on the table to remain there.
Even now, as much as I love seeing him do his thing in Houston, there's more than a tinge of sadness anytime I think of what should have been, as opposed to what we're seeing now.
You heard it from me: OKC will rue the day they traded James Harden. They will not win an NBA championship anytime soon.
Kenny. Has. Spoken.
To add to that, Harden obviously wanted to stay in OKC, he just wanted to get his money which you can't be mad at whatsoever. Regardless, Harden's situation is a perfect example of how you may not be ready for change, but you've got to embrace it and make the most of it anyway.
Lord know I'm trying to convince myself of the same thing right now.
That Saturday night in October when James Harden became a Rocket pretty much changed the Western Conference.
For my Rockets, it finally meant that Dork Elvis had been putting tiny eggs in baskets for one giant payoff and swung hard as hell. Nobody, and I mean NOBODY had any idea he was trading for Harden, even more than the Robinson deal he just landed a few weeks ago.
Here's what's scary to think as a Rockets fan. For three years we've had to sit back and wonder what if T-Mac & Yao's bodies never broke down at the same damn time, if Kevin Martin would amount to anything really outside of a guy with an awkward FT motion and a tenacity to get to the line. We were all skeptical of Harden and I told this to Ed the moment it happened, we might be looking at the moment Oklahoma City basically shot itself in the foot to win THIS year.
Even crazier? Only LeBron James is having a better February than James Harden from the floor. He'll win West Player of the Month and the Rockets will no doubt crawl to the 6th seed at best, 8th at worst.
As far as OKC is concerned, there are stats that tell us they're better this year than last and that's fine but from an eye test standpoint, something is off. KD is becoming more and more demonstrative whenever things go wrong and Harden was the guy who off set Russy's "Tupac on the Menace II Society set" moments. Now who's that guy? Martin? Nope. Jeremy Lamb's still a little raw and trust me – this was as best as Presti could have gotten dealing Harden instead of letting him flat out walk at the end of the season.
Somehow Daryl Morey flipped an entire roster (sans Chandler Parsons ironically) into a legit playoff contender with enough cap space to sign TWO max players this offseason. He wants Dwight, bad.
Lin + Harden + Dwight in Houston? Possible.
I like to think I'm a high ranking member of the Chandler Parsons fan club.
Great sombering article about my 2nd fav. team after my Bulls. In your Death Row analogy, would Kevin Martin be Danny Boy?
I Ain't Mad At Cha for that comparison.

How Can I Make IKEA's Rye Bread from Scratch?
Good Questions
Q: I recently bought the Finax Swedish rye bread (rågbröd) mix in a quart milk carton from IKEA and tried it out, not expecting much. However, I loved it and can't figure out how to recreate it at home!
It must be easy — can you help? Otherwise it's back to IKEA to stock up.
Sent by Chana
Editor: We have never tried this, so we don't have any specific tips for Chana, other than to check the ingredient list and to check that against any recipes you find. Also, check out this group of IKEA rye bread fans at Facebook!
Readers, any rye bread recipes or tips for Chana?

Ikea rye bread in a carton?!?!?!-I MUST try this.
This book has a good German bread recipe. I have been "adjusting" it to make it closer to the real thing http://www.amazon.com/Healthy-Bread-Five-Minutes-Day/dp/0312545525
Amazing! I'll have to give this a try, Rye Bread has been the one bread that keeps eluding me...
The rugbrød in Denmark was all about the mix ins - sunflower seed, flax seed, poppy seed, sometimes grated carrot. So dark and rich and amazing *sigh*
You can probably fish up a recipe in your cooking units of choice online by searching "rugbrød" rather than taking the ikea route.
I have never had the IKEA rye bread, but I do have a Swedish Rye Bread recipe handed down to me by my Swedish grandmother.
Swedish rye Bread
1 qt buttermilk (-1/4 cup)
1 yeast cake or 2-3 ounces or 2 Tbs. (Mom was a little hazy on this point.)
4 cups rye flour
5 cups white flour (+2 cups while kneading)
1/2 cup shortening
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup molasses
1 Tbs salt
Place yeast in 1/4 lukewarm water with 1 tsp sugar. Let sit for 10-15 minutes. Meanwhile take lukewarm buttermilk and beat in rye flour. Mix in yeast. Cover and let rise until double, about an hour. Melt shortening and beat in brown sugar, molasses and salt. Beat into rye sponge. Gradually add 5 cups of white flour and knead and knead and knead adding 2 more cups of white flour as you do so. Place in greased bowl and let rise until double, about an hour. Separate into 4 loaf pans and let rise until double again, about an hour. Bake at 350 for 30-45 minutes.
For Danish Rye Bread from scratch, these never fail me: Starter & Loaf
I like this bread very much too! Although Debra's recipe will make a very good bread, the IKEA one definitely is one that normally requires a sourdough starter if you're making it from scratch. Also although it uses mostly rye, this rogbrod is not the "farmer" bread of Debra's recipe made mostly with flour, but more akin to the square German "pumpernickel" breads you find in the refrigerator section, with a substantial amount of whole rye/wheat kernels. (In the ingredients it also says it has flax seed, and I think maybe oatflakes, I don't have it handy here.)
I have tried a couple of times to duplicate it with recipes similar to Jesper's, and have not yet got anything as tasty as the original IKEA one for all the trouble it takes to make it from scratch, so I tend to use the IKEA box still. As well as having to maintain the starter, and round up the rye and spelt berries (a long drive from where I live), the recipes of this type also make a VAST amount of bread, often two very large loaves, so the smaller size of the bread from the box is more convenient.
Part of the difference is that the IKEA starter is much better tasting than the one I grew (from scratch). I am dying to know how IKEA managed to capture the taste of the starter so well in the carton. I wonder if it is still "live" in there and could be revived as culture for a new starter. Maybe that's my next experiment.
I would love to hear someone who has duplicated it successfully.
Bronzeager, this is normal that the 1st batch of starter doesn't come out as good as it should. The estonians say that you have to do at least 3 batches of bread (and take some of the dough done with it as the starter for next batch) before the starter is good enough. I'm currently trying to translate the how-to of Estonian rhye bread making into english, I'll post the translation of it here: https://sites.google.com/site/pilleip/cooking/rhyebread
vollkornbrot might be a better term to google.
Yes, one of the recipes I used for adapting is a Vollkornbrot (but you have to read German for the better ones). Thanks for the tip pilleip, I will try that. Look forward to your translation!
Being Danish I know what this is about. Here's a blog recipe that works! Yes you do have to make the starter renew a few times before it really works.

Easiest way to feed your fish!
posted 6 years ago
I loved using this for my fish! My kids were always wanting to help me feed the fish but would tend to over-feed them. This stopped that problem! The fish seemed to like the flavor too.
Pros: Pre-measured, texture is good, healthy
Cons: none

A few days ago, Sandy Alderson told reporters that there would likely have to be some kind of "payroll manipulation" in order for the Mets to sign another player this offseason who will command close to what Curtis Granderson will be paid next year ($13 million dollars).
Alderson's comment seemed to intimate that the Mets were unlikely to land free agent shortstop Stephen Drew (and that may still be the case), but Nick Cafardo of the Boston Globe says that the Mets are still interested in the 30 year old Drew:
Mets still in SS market. Stephen Drew still in play.
— Nick Cafardo (@nickcafardo) December 10, 2013
Most think that the Mets have roughly $15 million more to spend this offseason, and signing Drew would eat up a large chunk of that.
However, the Mets are currently attempting to deal Ike Davis (who will make roughly $4 million in 2014), and Daniel Murphy (who will make a bit more than $5 million in 2014).
If the Mets deal Davis and/or Murphy, depending on the players they take back, they could be adding another chunk of money to spend on external acquisitions.
Fellow free agent shortstop Jhonny Peralta signed a four year deal with St. Louis worth $53 million, and most felt that Drew would get a similar deal. His market, though, has been slow to develop and appears thin.
At present, it seems that the team that has the most interest in Drew is the Red Sox. However, there have been rumors that the Red Sox won't give Drew more than two years. If the Mets were to offer three years, perhaps this thing could get done.

SIMI VALLEY, Calif.—Quick to tangle, Republican presidential rivals Rick Perry and Mitt Romney sparred vigorously over job creation and Social Security Wednesday night in a feisty campaign debate that marked a contentious new turn in the race to pick a 2012 challenger to President Barack Obama. Far more than in earlier GOP debates this summer, the candidates mixed it up in their first faceoff since Perry entered the race and almost instantly overtook Romney as front-runner in opinion polls. Those two—as well as other contenders on stage—sniped at one another, contradicted allegations and interrupted media questioners to demand opportunities to take each other on. The debate was the first of three in as many weeks, at a time when the economy is struggling, unemployment is seemingly stuck at 9.1 percent and Obama's popularity is sinking in the polls—all events that could make the GOP nomination worth more than it appeared only a few months ago.

So the majority of Americans are in support of a Republican who loses his cool amongst other Republicans in a debate? A guy who used an executive order to pass a medical law into effect? A guy who prayed for rain but only got fire? Please, America. You've fallen off and it's time to get back up.
wtf…Did Perry really try to bully Ron Paul.
God help him if he did.

Hi,If Rick gets in; we should all learn to pray.
Wow, what a loser.
14 Reasons Why Rick Perry Would Be A Really, Really Bad President
#1 Rick Perry is a "big government" politician. When Rick Perry became the governor of Texas in 2000, the total spending by the Texas state government was approximately $49 billion. Ten years later it was approximately $90 billion. That is not exactly reducing the size of government.
#2 The debt of the state of Texas is out of control. According to usdebtclock.org, the debt to GDP ratio in Texas is 22.9% and the debt per citizen is $10,645. In California (a total financial basket case), the debt to GDP ratio is just 18.7% and the debt per citizen is only $9932. If Rick Perry runs for president these are numbers he will want to keep well hidden.
#3 The total debt of the Texas government has more than doubled since Rick Perry became governor. So what would the U.S. national debt look like after four (or eight) years of Rick Perry?
#4 Rick Perry has spearheaded the effort to lease roads in Texas to foreign companies, to turn roads that are already free to drive on into toll roads, and to develop the Trans-Texas Corridor which would be part of the planned NAFTA superhighway system. If you really do deep research on this whole Trans-Texas Corridor nonsense you will see why no American should ever cast a single vote for Rick Perry.
#5 Rick Perry claims that he has a "track record" of not raising taxes. That is a false claim. Rick Perry has repeatedly raised taxes and fees while he has been governor. Today, Texans are faced with significantly higher taxes and fees than they were before Rick Perry was elected.
#6 Even with the oil boom in Texas, 23 states have a lower unemployment rate than Texas does.
#7 Back in 1988, Rick Perry supported Al Gore for president. In fact, Rick Perry actually served as Al Gore's campaign chairman in the state of Texas that year.
#8 Between December 2007 and April 2011, weekly wages in the U.S. increased by about 5 percent. In the state of Texas they increased by just 0.6% over that same time period.
#9 Texas now has one of the worst education systems in the nation. The following is from an opinion piece that was actually authored by Barbara Bush earlier this year….
• We rank 36th in the nation in high school graduation rates. An estimated 3.8 million Texans do not have a high school diploma.
• We rank 49th in verbal SAT scores, 47th in literacy and 46th in average math SAT scores.
• We rank 33rd in the nation on teacher salaries.
#10 Rick Perry attended the Bilderberg Group meetings in 2007. Associating himself with that organization should be a red flag for all American voters.
#11 Texas has the highest percentage of workers making minimum wage out of all 50 states.
#12 Rick Perry often gives speeches about illegal immigration, but when you look at the facts, he has been incredibly soft on the issue. If Rick Perry does not plan to secure the border, then he should not be president because illegal immigration is absolutely devastating many areas of the southwest United States.
#13 In 2007, 221,000 residents of Texas were making minimum wage or less. By 2010, that number had risen to 550,000.
#14 Rick Perry actually issued an executive order in 2007 that would have forced almost every single girl in the state of Texas to receive the Gardasil vaccine before entering the sixth grade. Perry would have put parents in a position where they would have had to fill out an application and beg the government not to inject their child with an untested and unproven vaccine. Since then, very serious safety issues regarding this vaccine have come to light. Fortunately, lawmakers in Texas blocked what Perry was trying to do. According to Wikipedia, many were troubled when "apparent financial connections between Merck and Perry were reported by news outlets, such as a $6,000 campaign contribution and Merck's hiring of former Perry Chief of Staff Mike Toomey to handle its Texas lobbying work."

Seattle sees big gains in public transit ridership
The Seattle area saw big gains in public transit ridership last year, as more people boarded buses, trains and subways nationally than at any time since the 1950s.
The Seattle area saw big gains in public transit ridership last year, as more people boarded buses, trains and subways nationally than at any time since the 1950s.
Record ridership on Sound Transit drove the increase, with about 30.3 million boardings last year, an increase of more than 8 percent from 2012. The agency operates regional buses, the Central Link light rail and the Sounder commuter rail.
Spokesman Bruce Gray attributes the increase to the improving economy: "There's more jobs and more people riding the trains to get to work," he said.
Statistics from the American Public Transportation Association show that King County's bus system saw ridership jump more than 3 percent, as did Kitsap Transit in Bremerton. It was up half of 1 percent in Spokane.
However, the figures also show that bus ridership was down slightly in Olympia, Tacoma, Richland and Vancouver.
It was also down more than 12 percent in Everett. The Everett Transit System cut its service 15 percent in mid-2012 to balance its books, and it stopped offering free rides to seniors and some other populations -- charging them 25 cents instead, said agency spokeswoman Sabina Popa.
"People travel a little differently when they ride for free than when they have to pay a fare, no matter how small it is," she said.
Among the reasons people are boarding more buses and trains are the ripple effect of the Great Recession, as well as the increased use of mobile technology, which allows people to make their trips more productive or entertaining. Technology is also improving accuracy of catching a bus.
Another factor: the migration of people to urban and condensed neighborhoods that are transit-friendly, said Clark Williams-Derry of the Sightline institute, a Seattle-based think tank.
"It's a combination of factors that are affecting the entire nation. Gas prices are still high, cars are still expensive, and insurance is expensive. People are finding that buses are a reasonable alternative for more and more trips," he said. "Now that we have mobile technologies like smartphones and tablets, people can use the bus for more than reading the paper."
But Williams-Derry said it was worrisome that King County may soon have to cut back service due to budget woes. He said King County Metro bus ridership grew three times faster than the county's population.
"It'd be a strange thing because one of the big benefits of buses is that they can help deal with congestion," he said.
Washington State Ferries booked more than 22.5 million passenger trips last year, up a little more than 1 percent from 2012.

Mbongeni Ngema
BiographyNgema was the main creative force behind the hugely popular Broadway musical "Sarafina," which was later made into a movie with Whoopie Goldberg. His score helped introduce a generation of people to the exuberant harmonies of South African singing, and to the horror and confusion of life under apartheid. The show focuses on the struggles of a student named Sarafina who gets caught up in the student uprisings in Soweto in the 1970s. Ngema also wrote and directed "Woza Albert," another apartheid-era piece that helped bring the plight of South Africans to the world's attention.

[QUOTE=JCnflies]There's a new senatie bill, S1, that is all about lobbying reform. On the surface this looks like a good idea. But the liberals, always the ones to champion freedoms and rights, have included a rider on the bill that any church, synaogogue or religious organization that informs their consituency of upcoming political actions can be called a lobby and have to register as such. Informing membership would constitute lobbying - presently, churches are not permitted to recommend a particular vote to their congregations as they would lose their tax exempt status (I think we all agre that is a fair rule.)
This is a direct shot at several things:
(1) Freedom as guaranteed in the first ammendment. This is so blatant even the ACLU is against this rider.
(2) A direct shot at trying to limit the Christian vote, particularly in states like those in the South and Ohio where churches are huge and pastors keep their membership very informed.[/QUOTE]
so what happens when people like hiel howard dean or john edwards gets up in front of a congregation to give a speech??

The Fortwo Nightrun is powered by the same 74bhp engine as the top-of-the-range Brabus but is finished in entry-level Pure trim, with a price-tag of £10,425. This is a saving of £2003 over the Brabus, although just 70 of the cars will be sold
The Brabus-tuned engine gets the Smart from rest to 60mph in 12.3sec, which is 6sec faster than the standard 50bhp Fortwo coupe. It goes on to a top speed of 93mph.
Anti-lock brakes, traction control and electric windows are standard, but air-conditioning and alloy wheels are on the options list.
The 61bhp Fortwo Truestyle is available as a coupe for £7495 and in cabriolet guise for £9240, which up to £330 more than the Pure model it is based on. Both cars are finished in an exclusive red metallic paint finish, which is not available as an option on other Smarts. Other metallic paint colours can be specified on standard models for £200. Smart will sell no more than 300 Truestyles.
