Completion honors Lilly's commitment to the community and its biotech
INDIANAPOLIS, May 12 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Eli Lilly and Company (NYSE: LLY) announced today completion of the final phase of its $1 billion effort to further strengthen the company's biotechnology research and development capabilities.
At a ceremony at its Indianapolis operations, Lilly officials, along with participation by Indianapolis Mayor Gregory Ballard, dedicated the final and largest phase of the company's biotech operations - the Bioproduct Research and Development Laboratory (known as K362), which has now become Lilly's headquarters for biotechnology research and development. The 475,000 square foot, 4-story laboratory is home to nearly 500 scientists and research support staff who are conducting cutting-edge research in molecular and cell biology, analytical science, and engineering. In these labs, Lilly scientists will research and develop the next generation of biopharmaceuticals that will follow currently marketed Lilly biopharmaceuticals such as Xigris(R) for the treatment of severe sepsis and Forteo(R) for the treatment of osteoporosis. Biopharmaceutical products differ from traditional chemical-based pharmaceuticals in that scientists utilize cellular or biocellular processes to make biopharmaceuticals rather than relying on chemical processes.
The final phase dedicated today marks the completion of the third of
three facilities that make up Lilly's Indianapolis-based biotechnology
complex. The first phase of construction, completed in October 2006, was a
state-of-the-art bioproduct pilot manufacturing plant (known as K360). The
250,000-square-foot facility employs scientists and engin

BRIGHTON — The Brighton football team needs to right the ship, and it needs to do it quickly.
For the second week in a row, the Bulldogs were their own worst enemies as they fell Sept. 18 to Northglenn, 10-6.
THORNTON – Now that Prairie View High School laid claim to the Eastern Metro Athletic Conference golf title, the T-Hawks can start focusing on the upcoming regional tournament.
PVHS heads for the Broadlands Golf Course in Broomfield for an 8 a.m. tee time Sept. 21. The top two teams and the top 13 golfers not a part of the top two teams advance to the state 5A golf tournament in Fort Collins the first week in October.
BRIGHTON -- Brighton's softball team didn't have many answers for the pitching of Grandview's Courtney Browne Sept. 14.
Browne didn't allow a hit until the fifth inning and kept the Bulldogs' hitters off-balance as the Wolves upended BHS 6-1.
Prairie View batted around twice in the second inning and beat Gateway 22-0 on the T-Hawks' field. The Eastern Metro Athletic Conference game was Sept. 29.
Haley Morgan and Sarah Stamps drove in four runs. Brooklyn Trujillo had three hits and drove in two runs. She also threw a no-hitter and struck out seven of nine batters she faced.
Hinkley blanked Prairie View 5-0 in Aurora Sept. 29. Jesus Campa scored twice for the Thunderbirds. No stats were available for the ThunderHawks.
Eagle Ridge beat Venture Prep 25-7, 25-11, 25-11 in class 3A Confluence League play Sept. 28 in Brighton.
No stats were available for either team.
Brighton swept past Thornton 7-0 in Eastern Metro Athletic Conference tennis. The Sept. 28 match was in Thornton.
Five matches were played to conclusion. James Evangelista (No. 1 singles), Dylan Gagon (No. 2 singles), Matthew Swarr (No. 3 singles), Indigo Schultz and Hiroto Hayashi (No. 1 doubles) and Kevin Kovach and Austin Isham (No. 2 doubles) won in straight sets. The remaining matches went to Brighton by way of defaults.
Doug Maier, formerly of Dakota High School, is the new girls basketball coach at Prairie View High School.
He's had more than 18 years' coaching experience in the both the boys and girls game.
THORNTON – Prairie View High School won the golf championship of the Eastern Metro Athletic Conference Sept. 9. The ThunderHawks beat out rival Brighton by two strokes over the course of two so-called "major" tournaments this season.
The Bulldogs actually won the second major at the Heritage at Todd Creek Golf Course. BHS had a stroke total of 231, eight shots better than PVHS. Individually, Ryan Kropp of Brighton, who won the conference stroke title, fired a 73. Austin Ross had a 77, and Justin Kanda turned in an 81.
BRIGHTON -- John Thanos is Prairie View's new baseball coach.
He takes over for Tim Cardenas, who stepped down this spring because of family and business commitments.
Thanos comes to PVHS by way of Chesterton High School in Indiana. The Trojans won a regional championship last year.

An outage has left more than 1,000 homes and businesses in southeastern Utah in the dark.
Winds knocked out power to Rocky Mountain Power customers in Bluff, Mexican Hat and Montezuma Creek on Sunday evening, according to the San Juan County Office of Emergency Management. Though about 4,000 homes and businesses were initially affected, repair crews had managed to restore power to all but about 1,000 by 9:20 p.m.
A shelter has been set up at the Bluff Community Center at 190 N. 200 East for those affected.

(J. Meric/Getty Images)Boston Red Sox designated hitter David Ortiz went 2 for 4 during a simulated game in Fort Myers, Fla., on Monday and could begin a rehab assignment in Triple-A Pawtucket on Thursday, reports MassLive.com's Evan Drellich.The 37-year-old is recovering from a inflammation in his right heel -- officially "right heel tendinopathy," according to the report -- that arose during spring training and forced him to start the season on the disabled list.A strained Achilles on the same leg limited Ortiz to 90 games last season.He estimated that he could require 25-30 minor-league at-bats before being ready to return -- a timetable that would bring him back to the Red Sox on April 17 or 18, according to The Boston Globe's Peter Abraham.From MassLive.com, including comments from Boston manager John Farrell:Farrell said Ortiz ran the bases well."We're hopeful (for) three days of action in Fort Myers before he would go out from there, provided there are no setbacks," Farrell said. Triple-A Pawtucket is home eight straight games starting Thursday, from April 11-18. Farrell has previously said Ortiz would likely rehab with Pawtucket. Promoted Stories Comments

Glad you made the switch. Just went from a 2007 Prius light green base to a 2012 Prius pearl white with dark gray interior and solar sunroof. Gas mileage is about 10-15 MPG better than 2004-2009 models.
Having the Prius Five do you have the active cruise control?

The Power of Positivity
It has been some time since I last posted about my forced retirement from a job I really enjoyed and did well. Over the past few years I have continued to operate my (former part-time) fine art photography business as well as establish my Pet Photography business. Although I enjoy both kinds of photography, and have made some sales, they are not enough to cover my bills.
Since being laid off I have continued to search for gainful employment while enrolling in advanced digital photography classes at Columbus State Community College to keep up my skill set. A reality check; I am over 50 and despite advertising campaigns that is not the 'new 40′ when it comes to the job market. This morning I had an interview for a potential job; one that would take advantage of my skills and experience, be enjoyable, provide flexible hours for my own business as well as cash flow.
On my way to the interview I called Tabatha Coffey (guest-hosting for Larry Flick this week) to ask her for positive thoughts & good wishes. Of course she provided them. Later in the show another listener called to offer the suggestion that I needed to 'rid myself of negative thoughts' and fully embrace 'the power of positive thinking'. Not to dismiss the well-intentioned advice, but I can not adopt it whole-heartedly. My sales training and experience has taught me that a positive attitude can be very helpful; first impressions do matter and pre-emptive surrender is to be avoided. Medical studies seem to suggest that 'having a good attitude' and a network of support can increase the odds of surviving life-threatening diseases. On the other hand, the most positive outlook in the world can not, by itself, guarantee success.
Some times the disease is just too powerful for happy thoughts alone to succeed. My time sitting with friends dying of aids-complications means that lesson is burned into my brain.
Having studied various New Age approaches to faith and spirituality I don't deny the power of having a good attitude. However I reject the extrapolation that people who are sick, poor, etc somehow deserve it, or brought it upon themselves by not being strong or positive enough. When someone tells me that "everything happens for a reason" I remind them the reason might be "to make your life a living hell".
I recall hearing about a study (which I can not, at the moment, find on-line) that interviewed former prisoners-of-war. The conclusion ran along the lines of those with the most upbeat and positive attitude, the ones who were sure that everyone (or at least they) would be home for Christmas or some other milestone, and were not, would die (from depression or illness) earlier. The ones who had blind faith they would be home for Christmas year after year, but year after year were not, had the most trouble adjusting if they did survive. Those who approached their captivity with a balanced approach of a realistic understanding of their situation with hope and optimism were more likely to survive and come out with less trauma.
My approach to the interview this morning was a combination of positivity (I know I am a great fit for this position, this industry, this company) and a touch of realism; I am not the perfect man for everyone. Perhaps my many years of being a single gay man prepared me for my sales career; learning how to accept rejection and not let it destroy my ego.
I do believe I presented myself well, and am hopeful. But I am not presuming the job is mine nor assuming that I'm out of the running. If I get it I'll celebrate and if I don't I won't dissolve into a bottle of vodka. After all I am a:

BRIDGEPORT, Conn. -- Ed Cooley's homecoming went as well as he could have asked for tonight. The former Fairfield and first-year Providence coach came back to Connecticut and coached his team to an 80-72 win in front of a record-setting regular-season crowd at the Webster Bank Arena.
For Cooley, it was emotional not only because he used to coach the Stags ('06-'11), but also because he coached against a player he knows well, recruited to Boston College and envisioned coaching this year at Fairfield: Eagles transfer and fifth-year player Rakim Sanders. Sanders scored 25 in the loss for FU tonight. I'll have a post up in a bit on the night for everyone involved, but here are the two one-on-one interviews with the head coaches from tonight.
First, Cooley.

Great place to stop overnight on your way through the area. Convenient location on Route 66, walking distance to a local restaurant, and the place is loaded with history up and down the road. Owners are nice people, plenty of spaces available, free wifi, cable, and full hookups. Wifi is shut off from 11 pm-7am. When I asked why that was (as I get up before 7), the owner said that you are supposed to be sleeping at night so don't need the internet during that time. Checkout is 10 am (I thought that was rushing anyone there), but otherwise the place is a good place to stop at while going through. It's a quiet park, even being close to the road. We would stay here again. - happy2013camper

In addition, the generously sized site had a sheltered picnic table with a pedestal BBQ grill (which could not be used as they had a no wood or charcoal burning ban due to extremely high fire danger). There is a dump station at the campground entrance. The campground host was very helpful and friendly. Many sites overlook Conchas Lake and there are primitive sites at the lake's edge. The scenery includes many shortish coniferous trees and desert plants among the large rock strewn landscape. If you like walking/hiking/biking there are trails and roadways inside and outside the park. The night sky is gorgeous as are the sunsets. The park was very quiet during our stay but I can imagine lots of noise in the summer. During our stay, there were high winds on several days including one night with wind gusts of 45 mph. The ranger led tour of the dam was informative and interesting. The campground is 35 miles west of Tucumcari, NM which offers limited shopping and dining. We received five bars of Edge on our AT&T cell phone which was sufficient for talking and texting. We received no service on our Millenicom jet pack. The park advertised Wi-Fi but it will not be up and running until May 6. There was Wi-Fi available at the marina store and the 104 store. OTA TV brought in 2 analog and 2 digital channels. - DD Rolling Ranch
May 2007 - $4.00
Conchas Lake has numerous areas to camp. There are 104 developed sites and 41 electric and water sites. The campgrounds are located in various areas of the lake. I believe there's primitive camping along the shoreline in some areas. The area we stayed in was Bell Point campground which has power and water hookups. Each site has a 3 sided shelter with a picnic table on a concrete slab and a pedestal BBQ near the shelter. It's very dusty when breezy, interior road is dirt and no one seems to drive slow through the campground. Some sites are closer together then others, some are pull thrus, but most are back ins. ALL sites are on a reservation system which was a pain since there wasn't any cell/internet service there. The gal in the Park Office was nice enough to let me use their phone to make a reservation. If you just need a site for one night and sites are available (the post at each site has a green vacant sign or red occupied sign on them), go to the park office. It's located further down the main road on the left. There's a marina with a grocery/tackle shop/lounge/diner. There's also a phone booth outside which we needed to use since it was Mother's Day. Weekends are very busy but midweek was quiet. Nice views of the lake and surrounding area. You might want to use your water pump when showering, pressure wasn't that great. While there we saw people boating, fishing and water skiing. Dump Station is located across from the campground entrance. Make sure you're stocked up with food since the closest town is in Tucumcari, which is about 35 miles away. We would stay here again but only midweek. - jannie5

I didn't stay! Electrical hook ups outdated! Seen some were burnt! Grass doesn't get cut, was over 2' tall in most places. Hardly any staff on site to assist. Roads were easy to navigate. Entrance had 2 huge potholes that would almost tip your RV over. - User3306
Aug 2014 - $15.00
A no-frills campground that is very good for an overnight stop. Exit I-40 at exit 335, and go west on old 66 about 3/4 mile. Park is on your left (south side). Easy access for all sizes. Sites are gravel and/or grass, fairly level. Good Wi-Fi. If you traveling with horses, they have several corrals or pens available. Owner was friendly and helpful. We did not use the showers or restrooms. Would stay here again for an overnight stop. - Cowboy camper
Aug 2012 - $15.00
This was a very unusual park but great for an overnight stop if you are near Tucumcari. Opt for a spot at the back corner of the park. Facing the open field gave a nice view of the mountain. There were a number of run down campers that appeared to have someone living in the park, but no one was around that caused any concerns. Fine for the price charged. The staff was helpful in setting up our stay. Horses were allowed, and a pen with an outbuilding was at one end of the park. - themom3

03-19-2015 This park is closed right now. The electric lines are being dug up. We pulled in to register and a fellow told us he was sorry but could not accept any campers now. He said to check back next year.
The website had a different phone number than shown on most information we have - 575-815-0949.
We've enjoyed staying here in the past and are disappointed we couldn't this time. - rv4fun

We stayed one week in our 40 foot motor home. The site was large and level, wifi was excellent and secure,cable tv was excellent,plus water pressure and electric was also excellent. The owners and staff went above and beyond what was necessary to make us comfortable. It is not a resort but is a very secure and quiet rv park. We plan to spend next spring and summer there.
There is a saying don't judge a book by its cover. It truly applies to this rv park, stay here once and take in the book , not the cover, and you will definitely be back. - WJRYAH

Wonderful step back in time to Route 66 motor court life; RV park is behind old motor court. Extra long and wide pull-throughs, 30/50 amps, cable, water, sewer. Cool Studebaker parked out front. Showers are in old room #4, but were clean and tidy. Due to Historic Landmark status, it can't be changed which we felt was a look back in time and not a bad thing. The co-owner was great, guides you to site, helps with set up. Lots of great food nearby. Stayed in 40 ft rig and toad. - gleLOAL

Great overnight stop. Close to I-10 easy in and out, Flying J and Loves very close to park. Basic park all gravel roads and sites. Cable worked great. Check in was easy and fast all pull-thru sites. - roaming around
Aug 2015 - $28.00
Easy off and onto I-40 for a quick place to spend the night. Our last two visits in the area have had a lot of wind and some blowing dust through the camp. Nothing fancy but adequate. Nearby access to truck stops for fuel. Also the pull through had enough space so we didn't have to disconnect, and we could make the turns in and out of the park as well, although the attendant said other spots would require us to disconnect our tow so we didn't block traffic. Very level sites. - elduque

There are very few decent RV parks between Amarillo and Albuquerque but this KOA is very good for an overnight stop. Although the campgrounds could use some extra care, the utilities function well, the Wi-Fi is usable and restrooms are clean. The owners and staff are exceptional, super friendly and helpful. Also, this KOA provides a limited dinner and breakfast food service. We will stay here again. - OldeJohn

Grass was not mowed, at least not in a while. Very close to I-40 so a bit of noise. A fairly good site, gravel. It had rained a lot before we got there, so there was a lot of mud and potholes. The owners were nice and we had no problems. We probably would stay there again if we had to stop overnight in that area. - Genielady
Jun 2015 - $45.00
This was a one night stop after a travel day, and the staff here was excellent. We arrived after dark and had info waiting for us. They thoughtfully put us across the road from other family that was traveling with us. Sites were level, flat and good sized. We had no need to unhook which made pulling out the next morning much easier. Easily one of the best parts of this stay was the freshly cooked breakfast the next morning. Breakfast was not free but worth every penny. The camp store was well stocked with needed supplies and other gift items. Tucumcari evidently exists only as a place to stop on your way to someplace else, but we would definitely stop here again. - Meyer Camping

Obama: Africa's Promise Challenged By Tyranny
President Obama was in Africa Saturday morning, where he both praised and admonished leaders in Africa. Obama, calling himself an American leader with the "blood of Africa" within him, told the Ghanaian parliament that the continent has the potential for peace and prosperity. But that potential will become reality only if tyranny and corruption come to an end.
This is Obama's first visit as president to sub-Saharan Africa, and he's received a tremendous welcome. Host Scott Horsley talks with host Scott Simon about the president's trip.

The Biogas project is aimed at providing alternative energy source and instilling entreprenuership skills to the disadvantaged villagers in Alice,who cannot afford electricity.
What is the issue, problem, or challenge?
More than 1000 people do not have electricity in Alice town according to a research at Fort Hare University.The problem being the unaffordability and lack of funds for the energy source.Although Eskom the power provider is working with the municipality it has failed to address the issue diligently.This has seen many people using illegal cable connections which is a danger to everyone.This project would offer alternative energy power to more than 40 inhabitants,addressing challenges in Alice.
How will this project solve this problem?
The biogas project would provide alternative source of energy to those who dont have electricity in Alice.Also,the targeted group would be trained with entreprenuership skills so as to help them sustain themselves and improve their livelihoods.
Potential Long Term Impact
The project would educate more than 40 disadvantage people who do not have a means of living,this would be done through the application of entreprenuership skill learned and start making their own Biogas stove and sell them in the market.

We recently returned home from a tour of the Southwest that ended with 3 nights in Sedona. We are a family of 5 with children ages 14, 11, & 8. We booked the "cottage" at BWAR and it perfectly met our needs as a family of 5. The cottage does not look like much from the outside but the inside is beautiful.
The outside offers a lush and green private front and side yard for our kids to run and play -- but more importantly...privacy. There was a front porch with chairs running along the front of the cottage with amazing views of the red rocks (snoopy rock). It had a private driveway so we had our rental car available to us at all times. We were literally steps from the main hotel pool and just down the hill was the villa's club house (another pool - indoor/outdoor, and game room). At the end of the villas was the creek and then the rocks. My children had a great time exploring the creek area. Behind the cottage was the walkway to the pool and the main hotel. Next to the main hotel was the breakfast room. Breakfast was hot and fresh and outstanding for a complimentary hotel breakfast. It certainly met the needs of my family and everyone started their day satisfied.
Inside the cottage appeared to be recently redone. The living room was large and comfortable with a queen sleeper sofa. There was a kitchen area with full fridge, microwave, stove top and it was stocked with disposable dishes (not very eco friendly but made sense with no dishwasher). There was a large table and a desk area as well. There was a large King bedroom and another bedroom with a queen bed. The bathroom was well appointed. Obviously it was extremely quiet and private. There were TV's in both bedrooms and in the living room. The inside was lovely -- however we really did not take advantage of it at all since we were rarely in the cottage. We truly used it to sleep and regroup between activities. We did use both pools.
It perfectly met our needs and with the included breakfast, no extra fees, and no need for 2 rooms it was very economical as well. I far exceeded our expectations.

He laid out a series of goals he said would guide a second term, including boosting manufacturing in the U.S., slowing the growth of college tuition and cutting the deficit — goals he has laid out before, with mixed results.
The federal government this week topped $16 trillion in gross debt and has run trillion-dollar deficits every year Mr. Obama has been in office as he and congressional Republicans have combined to boost spending and cut taxes, all meant to bring the country out of its economic slump.
While notching major legislative victories, including his health care initiative that was upheld by the Supreme Court earlier this year, Mr. Obama has repeatedly clashed with Congress over the government's fiscal health, reflecting an uncertainty among voters themselves about the size and scope of government that they want to see.
Mr. Obama, though, said it's time for voters to take sides.
He cast this year's election as a referendum on his vision of an active federal government seeking to use its powers to boost middle-class Americans while demanding "shared responsibility" in higher taxes on the wealthy and tighter rules of the road on businesses, and stacked that up against Mr. Romney, who Democrats have used their convention to portray as out of touch with average Americans' needs.
Mr. Obama did not, however, defend — or even mention — his two biggest legislative achievements of his term: an overhaul of health care, and the $831 billion stimulus that he had promised would rescue the economy.
Changing venues
The final day of the convention was held indoors at Time Warner Cable Arena after Mr. Obama's campaign on Wednesday canceled the outdoor stadium speech they had planned.
They cited weather for the move — and indeed a rainstorm drenched Charlotte in the afternoon, seemingly justifying the decision, though it did little to quell the questions about why the campaign took the chance on scheduling the stadium speech in the first place.
Rain has been a constant much of the week, including on Saturday when a pelting rain, buffeted by severe winds, ate away the elbow on a Mount Rushmore-style sand sculpture of Mr. Obama.
On Thursday afternoon, Mr. Obama held a conference call with many of those who traveled to Charlotte to sit in the stadium, but who were left out when the night's events were moved inside the arena.
He said he is still counting on them to do the legwork to get him re-elected.
"This is still going to be a really close election, and the other side is preparing to unleash just a barrage of negative ads, they're getting massive checks from wealthy donors," he told them. "The good thing is, I've got you. I really need your help, guys."
Mr. Obama spoke a day ahead of the August jobs report from the Labor Department. A good jobs number could help him gain momentum as he leaves the convention, while a bad number could undo whatever progress he and his party may have made with voters.
ADP, a payroll company, released its own numbers Thursday suggesting that companies added more than 200,000 jobs in August, which would be the best number in more than half a year.

It was another disappointing road loss Thursday night for the Portland Trail Blazers.
BOXSCORE | My POST GAME NOTES
Sacramento 95, Portland 92
When: 10:00 PM ET, Thursday, February 2, 2012
Where: Power Balance Pavilion, Sacramento, California
Officials: #35 Kane Fitzgerald, #60 James Williams, #33 Zach Zarba
Attendance: 11740
Another Disappointing Road Loss
The Blazers led Sacramento by 13 in the second quarter, but they played a poor second half and failed to convert on two chances to tie the game in the last five seconds.
This was an all too familiar sight for a team that is now 3-9 away from the Rose Garden.
Love' Em
1. LaMarcus Aldridge
LaMarcus Aldridge continues to put up huge numbers for Portland. He led the team with 28 points and 14 boards last night. He did a great job crashing the offensive boards, and he finished with seven offensive rebounds. Aldridge deserves an All-Star spot, and the hope is that he will be named a reserve on February 9.
This guy has done a great job carrying the team so far this year.
2. Kurt Thomas
Kurt Thomas isn't expected to do much scoring for the Blazers, but he helped the team in a big way last night. Thomas put up 10 points and 5 rebounds in just 18 minutes of playing time. When he is able to contribute this well it takes some of the pressure off others in the lineup.
Hate' Em
1. Ice Cold Shooting
The single biggest reason the Blazers lost last night was their ice cold shooting. Portland shot a miserable 4 out of 18 from three-point range. Even worse, the Blazers went just 8 out of 16 from the charity stripe.
The Look on Wallace's face says it all...Blazers lose another away from home. - (AP Photo/Rich Pedroncelli)
Shooting only 50% from the free throw line will lose you a lot of close games.
2. Poor Defense on John Salmons
Salmons has been in a slump for quite a while, but everyone knows he is capable of getting hot. The Blazers didn't play good defense on him last night, and it allowed him to get his confidence back. In the end, Salmons hit several clutch shots that ended up beating the Blazers.
3. Too Much One-on-One
Nate McMillan said after the game that last night's loss could largely be attributed to the team's constant one-on-one play in the second half.
In the first half they were moving the ball around nicely, but down the stretch on the road they seem to revert back to simply trying to take someone off the dribble without passing it around.
The Blazers will host Denver at the Rose Garden on Saturday night.CLICK HERE TO CHECK OUT OUR TRAIL BLAZERS BLOG IN OUR CLUBHOUSE SECTION!

Utah Jazz to reach out to John Stockton in coach search, ESPN report says
Jeffrey D. Allred, Deseret News
Jazz president Randy Rigby recently said the organization would reach out to 20 or more candidates, including "iconic players," in a wide-ranging search for its next head coach.
As has been speculated, Hall of Fame point guard John Stockton will be among the prospects who will soon receive a call from the Jazz to gauge interest in replacing Tyrone Corbin, ESPN.com reported.
"The assumption in coaching circles is that Stockton, who was fiercely private as a player and has remained so in retirement, would balk at the media demands on coaches as much as anything about the job," ESPN.com's Marc Stein wrote.
"But Stockton also is seen in some corners as a coaching natural after spending 19 seasons, all with the Jazz, as a peerless coach on the floor who ranks No. 1 in league history with 15,806 career assists."
Stockton recently helped scout prospects for the Jazz while attending the Portsmouth Invitational in April to watch his son, David, participate in that basketball tournament.
It'd likely take a mighty convincing sales pitch from the Jazz to lure Stockton away from his Spokane, Washington, home. The devout dad coaches his daughter's basketball team and his two school-aged children at home.
Jazz general manager Dennis Lindsey wouldn't talk about specific names when reached by the Deseret News and ESPN on Tuesday. He did say that Utah's management is "getting closer" to reaching out to potential candidates.
"We're just in the middle of our diligence," Lindsey said. "I'm optimistic, and I think there's a good talent pool of coaches available."

GovLoop members ponder the attacks on government employee unions in cash-strapped states.
There was a Twisted Sister song that served as an anthem for rebellious teens and 20-somethings who grew up in the 1980s. Here's the refrain:
We're not gonna take itNo, we ain't gonna take itWe're not gonna take it anymore
Those lyrics came to mind recently as political protests erupted from north Africa to the northern United States. Curious about the perception of government colleagues toward their counterparts in places like Wisconsin, I asked the GovLoop community: Do worker unions help or hurt government?
Pam Broviak, assistant director of public works for Geneva, Ill., framed the conversation.
"All the unions I have watched organize in local government were created because employees no longer wanted to be subject to the whims or lack of leadership of elected officials," she wrote. "But I have seen examples that were both a benefit and a detriment to government. It's a benefit when it prevents professional, hardworking people from being fired for no good reason. It is always a bad thing when the union protects a poor-performing employee who was only hired by a past elected official as a favor to one of their friends."
Brian Gryth, legal and technical support manager for Colorado, offered his firsthand perspective.
"I am a union member, and most of our activities are targeted at securing a good working life for our members," he wrote. "As one of my managers once said about the union, you can either see the union as this external force or you can see it as people. At the end of the day, we are all colleagues and we are all working to the benefit of the people we serve."
Speaking of the people we serve, Darryl Perkinson, a Navy superintendent, thinks the public ought to do some soul searching. "A discussion must occur among all Americans about the value of our expectations. What is our personal expectation concerning what we want local, state and federal governments to do for us?" he said.
Open-government initiatives can create those opportunities for citizens to tackle the tough decisions facing public officials. For instance, North Carolina Gov. Bev Perdue (D) launched a Balance the Budget Challenge by inviting residents to grapple with the same data she reviews in allocating state resources.
John Evans, a North Carolinian and a specialist at the Internal Revenue Service, is confident that unions and public officials could constructively participate in a similar crowdsourcing process to avoid situations like the standoff in Wisconsin.
"Union members are well aware of the budget situation and, if asked and sincerely listened to, will likely have useful suggestions on how to reduce spending on nonessentials," he wrote. "Bluster and bombast and announcing a conclusion in the media before even beginning to bargain in good faith, as seen in Wisconsin, won't work."
So what does it take to bring reasonable people around a table for negotiations? I'd say it's time to start standing on the table — or on government as a platform, as Tim O'Reilly describes Government 2.0. What if more governors and other senior officials used Web-based tools to enable employees to generate options, weigh their relative value and make hard choices together?
It sure beats people shoving each other around and shouting, "We're not gonna take it," doesn't it?

Unions, are important and have helped to grow our economic foundation. Working openly and in good faith on both sides of the equation is the only way for us to continue to grow and propser in this country. One sided unilateral grandstanding does nothing but make for trouble for all. We at the end of the day all have a vested interest in our communities and the businesses within; so before anyone side throws a stone, remember we are all in it together - and we all will loose together if we do not work and cooperate with one another. The Wisconsin approach is clearly the wrong approach.
The mere existence of a union in an organization puts a barrier up between the workers and management. No matter how many "teamwork" buzzwords are thrown around that barrier exists in the back of everyone's mind and will pop to the front with very little provocation. That makes it nearly impossible for a unionized activity to function as effectively as a non-union one. (Compare northern U.S. auto plants to those in the south.)
I've been on both sides of a union. They have done great things for workers in the past, but I don't see them making a lot of contributions these days. While I won't go as far as saying they are obsolete, I do think their role should be limited, maybe just to worker safety.
A fair amount of items and clauses in many public-sector bargaining unit contracts have evolved from milestone events. A well-written contract also specifies rights and responsibilities for both management and labor. While it might be time to entertain discussions regarding benefits and budget, it doesn't seem value-added to completely eliminate unions and their respective contracts altoether. Maybe I'm missing somethign...
If it were not for the unions, the common working folk would be working in dangerous conditions with long hours and at fear for a layoff if they did not exactly follow the party line, no matter how stupid or demeaning.If it were not for the unions, the US would still be in a position of eminence in the world of production. Unions have created a work force where the incompetent can be promoted because they manage to play the union card and survive. The unions have created an environment where work can not be done unless a certain group does it, no matter that there are 50 people standing around with their thumbs up their hind-ends. In some palaces unions have/had become so out of control that a union member could ask an engineer to hold a tool while he crawled out from under some equipment and then turn around and write him up for holding said tool. That happened to my co-worker in 1984 in California, we were both 'counseled' on union/'management' relations and the union member got his free time for that 'violation'. We need unions, but not the "out of control, you must be a member, no one can do anything not defined" ones that we have now. Unfortunately, many unions have become a living entity that must continue to grow at all costs. This article appears to be assuming that unions are just groups of people and ignores the fact that the union is like the government (or big corporation), the top echelons will do anything to keep themselves in power and wealth.

Ads coming soon to Toronto Public Library date-due slips
A second request for proposals seeks a consulting firm to 'evaluate all library channels and vehicles' for other advertising opportunities.
|Report an Error
Share via Email
Don't forget to bring back No Logo on time. And don't forget the Golden Arches.
The Toronto Public Library has issued a request for proposals in search of a company to sell advertisements on the back of date-due slips. A second request for proposals seeks a consultant to "evaluate all library channels and vehicles" for other advertising opportunities.
Both requests were approved by the library board in February. The library system has never before sold ads outside its publication What's On, though it allows companies to sponsor programs like the TD Summer Reading Club.
Its foray into non-sponsorship ads is part of a broader expansion of advertising on city property under Mayor Rob Ford, who believes the government should seek financial partnerships with corporations to lessen the burden on taxpayers.
Ford's opponents argue the city should resist corporate intrusions into the public domain.
The TTC's new advertising contract, awarded last July, allows Pattison Outdoor Advertising to sell naming rights to subway stations, though the TTC board will have the final say. In February, council asked the city's real estate department to increase the number of billboards on city property; a report on the issue is due in the fall.
Ford said on sports radio in August that the walls and floors of school gyms should be turned into ad space. The idea got no traction.
"There certainly hasn't been a flood, but there certainly has been a loosening of the city's approach to advertising," said Matthew Blackett, publisher of Spacing magazine and a public space advocate.
Commercial advertising in libraries is so "uncommon," according to a report from the city's chief librarian, that "examples of policies and practices are difficult to find." But Mississauga and Calgary both sell date-due slip ads.
"It doesn't tend to get, shall we say, high notice, but it does put a message into hundreds of thousands of hands very inexpensively," said Mississauga library services director Don Mills.
It is not clear how much money Toronto could make by selling date-due slip ads. Mills said Mississauga originally used the ads simply to recover the cost of the slips. Councillor Janet Davis, a board member and Ford opponent who voted against the ads, said the revenue here would be "insignificant."
The board, composed of five councillors and eight members of the public, began to contemplate alternative revenue sources when it was asked by Ford to make $17 million in cuts. Council eventually approved a cut of $10 million.
The second request for proposals asks the winning consultant to study posters and brochure displays; ads on branch computers, the library's website and trucks; and other options to maximize revenue opportunities.
But the request cautions that the ads cannot "adversely or negatively impact the library's image" and that they should "maintain the welcoming and functioning elements of the library environment and the integrity of its spaces."
"While advertising to a certain extent is great, and I think it's needed, and it helps fund library services, I think we're all pretty like-minded in that we don't want Toronto Public Library branches being confused with Times Square in New York City. I don't think you're going to see advertising all over the place," said board chair Councillor Paul Ainslie, a Ford ally.
Ainslie said date-due slip ads, which will likely begin appearing by fall, do not "intrude on people's educational space." "It's not a fluorescent billboard flashing on and off while you're trying to read a book or study. You're getting it on the way out the door," he said.
The library's advertising policy prohibits ads promoting tobacco or alcohol products, religious beliefs, political positions and parties. It also forbids ads that could "detract from the library's public image or could place the library at the centre of a controversy or sensitive issue."
But Davis argued that the library is a learning "sanctuary" that should be kept free of ads of all types.
"It is the last protected place that is free from corporate messaging, and it should remain that way," she said.
Blackett said he does not find ads on date-due slips very troubling, though he thinks they are unnecessary.
"It's when advertising starts to creep onto the floors of libraries, or to the end-racks of library shelves, that it becomes offensive," he said.

Acclaimed Cumbrian band Colt 45 release first album
Last updated at 15:21, Wednesday, 30 July 2014
A Cumbrian band being tipped for great things by the national music press release their debut full-length album today.
COLT 45, a three-piece melodic punk outfit from Carlisle and Workington, signed to record label Visible Noise last year and were immediately booked studio time with top producer Romesh Dodangoda.
Today sees the fruits of their labours, The Tide Is Turning, hit the CD shelves and made available digitally on such global sites as iTunes.
It tops an amazing past year for the band, who stepped in to headline Cockrock when rapper Wiley walked out just 15 minutes in to his set.
Since then, they've toured the country, received plenty of national radio airplay and recently played the huge Download and Camden Rocks festivals, with Kendal Calling still to come.
They'll also be launching their album with a gig at The Brickyard in Carlisle on August 9 and an acoustic set and signing session at HMV in The Lanes this Thursday at 5pm.
Drummer Adam Lewis said: "We can't wait for people to hear the new tunes. We've worked really hard on the road and in rehearsal over the last few years, and these new tracks are the result of the three of us really pulling together and giving it our all.
"Playing at Download felt like a big step up for us. It was a huge buzz to play to so many people – we loved every second of it and just want to keep doing more and more"
Front man Neil Harper added: "The Tide Is Turning is actually a lyric from one of the songs on the album. It just stood out for us as a statement which really sums up how we all feel at the moment.
"It's been a long road to get here, both individually and as COLT 45, with each of us playing in bands from when we were still in school. We put a lot of time and effort when writing the songs for this album, as we'll never get a chance to do a debut album again!
"Launching the album at The Brickyard was an obvious decision because we've done so many gigs over the years there, we're based in Carlisle and it's just kind of our home venue. We've got some of our good friends coming from all over the UK to play as well, so it's gonna be a great night.
"The HMV signing session should be a lot of fun too. It's quite early on in our career I suppose to do it, but it's really nice to be asked to do something like that and it'll be great for us to meet and chat to the people who are going out and buying the album."
Bass player Gareth Jenkins said: "Ever since we were we kids this is something we have all dreamed of doing and to able to record and release an album which would be available in shops everywhere is a dream come true."
It's also an exciting time for Julie Weir, who runs the label COLT 45 signed to, Visible Noise. Based in London for many years, Julie is originally from Workington.
"I am beyond proud of what they have achieved so far and this is only early days," she said.
The album has already been met with critical acclaim by the national music press, with Kerrang! streaming the album on its website, Rock Sound saying: "There's a new breed of blue collar melodic punk emerging from small town UK" and Big Cheese adding: "One of the UK's best kept secrets, but not for long..."
- Don't miss the homecoming show for Colt 45 at The Brickyard, Carlisle on Saturday, August 9 with former Cumbria Live band of the week Youth Salute as support.

Apple opens iBooks 2: A new textbook experience for iPad
Over in New York at the Guggenheim Museum, the mystery of Apple's education event is over; the tech giant has announced iBooks 2 - "a new textbook experience for iPad."
"We try to bring the same energy and passion we've put into every product we make into our education business as well," said Philip Schiller, Apple's senior vice president of worldwide marketing. "There's something really profound starting to happen, it's remarkable. We're seeing that, as students are introduced to iPad, remarkable things are happening."
In a move that Apple hopes will "reinvent the textbook" (and shift a few million more iPads no doubt) the company unveiled iBooks 2 to the assembled tech hacks at the world famous venue and demoed its new functionality such as animated 3D models, real-time glossary definitions and a nice gallery view with pinch to zoom features.
Learning quizzes are built in to help the little fanboys get their knowledge on, and it's easy to make study notes and revision cards using the "My Notes" feature. There is, of course, a commercial element to iBooks 2 as well, with an online store where pupils can browse, purchase and directly download textbooks that they require.
iBooks 2 is hitting the App Store now and will be free. You'll need to buy some books to go in it, of course.
Apple also announced iBooks Author, an OS X application for creating new textbooks for iBooks 2. "Authors are going to love to use iBooks Author to create not only textbooks, but any kind of book," said Schiller.
Again, it's free and is hitting the Mac App Store now.
