*DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN THE NUTS on the AXLE! This WILL strip the axle bolts.
*Wheel build cost includes labor, double wall 36 hole Rhyno Lite rim, and Sapim 13 gauge spokes custom cut by Phil Wood.
*Re-true spokes (if necessary) within the first 200 miles of use to ensure long lifetime of ANY wheel build.
*Freewheels all come with 11T for max pedal assist speed. For even higher pedal assist speed consider Schlumpf 60T or 65T front chain ring.
*We have fit all rear frames so far with 8, 9, and even 10 speed freewheels. If needed, a simple washer may be used to create more space for larger freewheels.
*Several washers come with BMC hubs including torque washers. Put washers wherever needed to align canti or disc brakes to your rim or hub.
*Torque arms are required for safety in front hubs. Rear hubs should not require torque arms.
*NEVER mount controllers inside a bag or box. BMC controllers have fins on them so they can be air cooled and they are sealed to protect them from the elements.
*Range estimate for batteries assumes a safe 70% depth discharge, NO PEDAL assist, and level terrain. Pedaling will increase range.
*We UNDERESTIMATE the range on purpose. Maximum range should be determined by monitoring Volts and Amps Hours on the Cycle Analyst, not miles.
*Take only short trips for first few charge cycles. Batteries that are new or have not been used for a while are unbalanced, so a "break in" period will increase performance and lifetime.

Indiana received some huge news this summer when the transfer of former Warren Central standout Jerimy Finch was officially announced. The excitement grew to a fever pitch when the NCAA decided to grant Finch an exception and allow him to play in his first season at IU.Now, the Hoosiers have to decide how they want to use him. Finch arrived at Florida and was almost immediately converted to linebacker. He played well enough in camp to earn himself a role within the defense. But, as a former top-ranked prep safety, Finch figures to play safety and has said his natural place is in the defensive backfield. ...More... To continue reading this article you must be a member.

The Marine Museum and Little Theatre of Fall River are partnering to present a Gala Ten-Course Dinner at the Marine Museum on Saturday, April 13. The Little Theatre is presenting "Titanic: The Musical" in May at Bristol Community College, and the museum is home to the largest Titanic model, used in the 1958 movie "A Night To Remember."

Russell Morin Catering will prepare a lavish meal, replicating the one served on the last night of the Titanic's fatal sail across the Atlantic. There will also be a variety of fine wines served with each course.
Members of the cast from the Little Theatre production will entertain with selections from the show, and the Titanic model will be fully lit and on display.
Tickets are $125 per person, and only 165 will be sold. Vintage or formal dress is encouraged but optional. If you are interested in attending, call 401-624-9744.

Conrad Hartley Peltham Shawcross RA (born 26 April 1977)[1] is a British artist specializing in mechanical sculptures based on philosophical and scientific ideas. Shawcross is the youngest living member of the Royal Academy of Arts.[2][3]
Early life[edit]
Born in London, Shawcross is the son of biographer William Shawcross and the novelist, mythographer and cultural historian Marina Warner.
Shawcross studied at Westminster School, the Chelsea School of Art, the Ruskin School of Drawing and Fine Art (University of Oxford), and the Slade School of Fine Art (University College London).
Shawcross was included in the 2001 exhibition of British art school graduates Bloomberg New Contemporaries. He designs and builds machines with the intention of exploring the laws of science, and demonstrating the abstract nature of scientific thought in a practical manifestation. Shawcross gets help from scientists to research and develop his machines.
Shawcross' work came to prominence at the 2004 New Blood exhibition at the Saatchi Gallery at London County Hall. He exhibited The Nervous System, a large, symmetrical, working loom producing over 20,000 metres of double-helix coloured rope every week.[4]
Recent installations in 2009-2010 include a horizontal rope machine in the Holborn Tunnel, and a vast 60 foot high vertical version, Nervous System (Inverted) in the Sculpture Gallery, 590 Madison Avenue, New York. A 14 metre long spiral cast in aluminium, FRACTION (9:8), was unveiled in the Sadler Building at the Oxford Science Park.[5]
In December 2004, Shawcross' commission Continuum opened at the National Maritime Museum, Greenwich, an installation on time and maritime themes made specifically to match the history and architecture of the venue, the Queen's House.[6]) Works included the title work Continuum, a large torus of twelve loops, a conceptual model of the day that also echoed the radial geometry of the Inigo Jones floor; Pre-retroscope II and Pre-retroscope III, based on two sea voyages Shawcross undertook off Cornwall in self-constructed wooden kayaks; and The Winnowing Oar, a sculpture based on a motif in the Odyssey. Several exhibits are currently in the Turner Contemporary in Margate.[7]
In 2008, he was nominated and awarded the first prestigious International Fellowship award at Location One,[8] a non-profit art gallery in the SoHo arts district of New York City where his exhibition "Control" was on display from 20 May until 31 July 2009.[9]
Credits include his inclusion among The Observer's 2004 list of 80 most talented young people,[10] the First Base Acava Free Studio Award and the Ray Finnis Charitable Trust Award in 2001. He is represented by the Victoria Miro Gallery.
Personal life[edit]
Shawcross previously had a long-term relationship with theatre and opera director Sophie Hunter whom he met while studying at Oxford. The couple split in early 2010.[11][12]
In 2013, Shawcross married Italian fashion and textile designer Carolina Mazzolari. They have one son, Hartley Bruce Cy (b. May 2014).[13]

Class action lawsuit filed against Apple
updated 07:50 am EST, Fri February 18, 2005
Class action lawsuit
A new class action lawsuit filed on Thursday against Apple alleges that the company has engaged in acts of unfair and unlawful business practices, breach of contract, and misappropriation of trade secrets. The lawsuit was filed by three firms and five defendants as a class action on behalf of both resellers and consumers in the San Francisco County Superior Court. The 26-page complaint includes allegations of violations of the Consumers Legal Remedies Act and Song Beverly Act, warranty abuse, unfair and unlawful competition related to delivery and pricing of goods to resellers, improper repair/warranty costing, unfair price competition, and more. The suit seeks injunctive and compensatory damages as well as legal fees and punitive and exemplary damages for some violations.
The complaint is filed in two separate classes--on behalf of consumers and on behalf of resellers. It lists up to 25 "John Does" whom they say have acted as a co-conspirator, agent, or alter ego of or for the other Defendants. The document says it will be amended once the names of the unknown persons are available.
The complaint also alleges that Apple sold used computer equipment repackaged as new products, unfairly misrepresented the actual time of warranty for its products, and has also misrepresented warranty repairs and their associated costs. The plaintiffs argue that Apple is not properly reflecting the repair costs or requirements on equipment, unfairly shifting some of the burden of warranty repair costs burden to the reseller channel. Apple, at times, has refused to compensate for, or accept returns of, defective parts provided for repairs, according to documents obtained by MacNN.
The plaintiffs say that preferential delivery of goods to Apple's own retail stores and extension of education/government and other discounts--sometimes below the cost of goods obtained by resellers--to unqualified persons has done irreparable damage to channel business.
Documents show that plaintiffs are also alleging misappropriation of trade secrets by Apple. The suit claims that Apple has used confidential reseller information to build its own list of clients, in an effort to bolster its own direct sales and bypass the reseller channel. The plaintiffs argue that Apple would request a formal RFP (request for pricing) from resellers with
The lawsuit follows a similar claim made by a group of resellers in MacAdam vs. Apple, which was filed in 2003. It alleged, among other things, breach of contract and fraud by Apple and is still pending trial in a Santa Clara Court.

Seoul Incheon Airport Guide
In this section you will find traveller airport reviews as well as our Seoul Incheon Airport Guide with info on WiFi, lounges, facilities and services....and yes, even the names of some airport hotels in case you decide that sleeping in the airport is not for you!
Lots of space to sleep but everyone seems to know about it probably thanks to this site. These people came prepared with blankets and pillows. - CL
Featured Review
I have spent 10 and 4. 5 hour layovers here. ICN well deserves its consistently high ratings. The Free WiFi is great, the staff all speak English, and the cultural experience centers are amazing.
The highlight of this airport, for long layovers, is the Rest and Relax area. There are several around the airport, with loungers for sleeping, modular couches, etc. The snack bars there are even open late. For a fee you can get a massage, too.
It's really an amazing airport. Landside there is a cool transit center with art for sale and everything. I really enjoyed my time at this airport and would not mind connecting through here again if I can't fly direct.

I apologize if this doesn't fit here, I didn't know whether it would go here or in the Horse Riding forum.
I have always ridden my horse in a tie-down and noseband, since I got him, because my horse has a terrible habit of throwing his head around when he doesn't like something or wants to get his way. I ride in it mainly to restrict his head from flying all over the place. My trainer told me to use it, and she tightens it when it's not tight enough and he goes to flipping his head everywhere. The old owner never rode him in one. He almost never gives me a problem when he's in it, but he knows when it's not on, and will put up a lot more of a fight, and he's harder to handle, and it's easier to win battles when it's on. We always ride in it (except bareback, but it's worse)- to our showmanship/western pleasure clinic, playdays, barrel practices, and trail riding. I don't like using it that much, and I would like it better if I didn't have to for everything, and I think our overall appearance would be neater if it wasn't on. I really want to break him of having to wearing it all the time, and break him of his head tossing habit, when he doesn't agree with me.
Any help on how to teach him to behave when the tie down is off, or any tips in general would be very helpful.
The actual 'tie down' isn't on here, but you can see the noseband on him in this picture.
This is very similar to what I use (not my picture, I jut google'd it).
By the way, it's not so tight that is restricts all movement, or forces him to tuck his head in. It's only tight enough that he can't madly throw his head around like he usually does.

According to the Word Health Organization, patients who can benefit from palliative care should be identified earlier to enable proactive palliative care. Up to now, this is not common practice and has hardly been addressed in scientific literature. Still, palliative care is limited to the terminal phase and restricted to patients with cancer. Therefore, we trained general practitioners (GPs) in identifying palliative patients in an earlier phase of their disease trajectory and in delivering structured proactive palliative care. The aim of our study is to determine if this training, in combination with consulting an expert in palliative care regarding each palliative patient's tailored care plan, can improve different aspects of the quality of the remaining life of patients with severe chronic diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, congestive heart failure and cancer.
A two-armed randomized controlled trial was performed. As outcome variables we studied: place of death, number of hospital admissions and number of GP out of hours contacts.
We expect that this study will increase the number of identified palliative care patients and improve different aspects of quality of palliative care. This is of importance to improve palliative care for patients with COPD, CHF and cancer and their informal caregivers, and to empower the GP. The study protocol is described and possible strengths and weaknesses and possible consequences have been outlined.
Trial Registration
The Netherlands National Trial Register: NTR2815
According to the World Health Organization (WHO) palliative care is 'an approach that improves the quality of life of patients and their families facing the problems associated with life-threatening illness, through the prevention and relief of suffering by means of early identification and impeccable assessment and treatment of pain and other problems, physical, psychosocial and spiritual' [1]. A first challenge evoked by this definition is the early identification of a patient who may benefit from palliative care. Although the WHO-recommendations have been accepted worldwide, no scientific papers have been published yet on how to identify patients who could potentially benefit from an earlier start of a palliative care in general practice. A literature review of Qaseem et al. did not identify any validated tools that predict the optimal timing to initiate palliative care services in general practice,[2] despite the fact that a lot of research has been undertaken to elucidate the prediction of mortality, survival, and prognostication for patients with advanced cancer and non-cancer diseases [3-10]. For patients not recognized as being in a palliative phase an individualized well-considered plan of action is missing [11,12].
Several illness trajectories have been described for people with progressive chronic illnesses [13,14]. For none of these trajectories the right moment to start palliative care has been defined yet. Particularly regarding patients with non-malignant diseases, such as advanced chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and congestive heart failure (CHF), recognizing or defining the moment when palliative care should be taken in consideration seems difficult (Figure 1) [15,16]. In a national questionnaire among multiple palliative care providers the lack of prognostic indicators and clinical triggers for starting end of life care appeared to be the most important missing link in applying palliative care in primary care [17]. By integrating palliative care into curative care practices or combining palliative care with disease-oriented management earlier in the disease trajectory, chronically ill patients nearing the end of life reported improved satisfaction with care and demonstrated less acute interventions and were more likely to die at home [18,19].
The second challenge in bringing the WHO definition into clinical practice, for which early identification is a prerequisite, is a structured proactive palliative care planning. Palliative care programs appeared to reduce symptom distress and improve patient and family satisfaction. Important elements of structured proactive palliative care proved to be coaching the patient to make choices regarding future interventions or restrictions,[20-22] consulting caregivers,[18] eliciting values and addressing the psychological, existential and social context of patient and informal caregiver [23,24]. By proactive planning death at home could be enhanced, [25-27] the number of unforeseen transfers decreased,[28] hospital lengths of stay and aggressive interventions diminished and consequently costs and utilization decreased [28-30].
For GPs a structured proactive palliative care planning is a challenge, as patients with an advanced chronic disease are often under supporting care of the disease-specific specialists until far in the disease trajectory [31]. The GPs should pick up their role as coordinator of palliative care against the mainstream of disease-oriented interventions [32,33]. Several studies concluded that when a GP is part of a team, palliative care improves on different aspects; for patient, informal carer and the participating GP [34,35].
Aims of the study
Research questions
In this study we aim to answer the following questions:
Does early identification and proactive palliative care planning of palliative patients by the GP influence
1. Place of death, number of transitions and number of contacts with the out of hours primary care service?
2. Quality of life of patients and their informal caregivers and prescriptions?
3. GP satisfaction with the delivered palliative care and their own assessment of their ability to provide palliative care?
The objective of this report is to present the study protocol used for the data collection in 2009 and 2010. We describe the protocol of the study, provide a description of the intervention, the methodology and the baseline characteristics of the participating GPs. The described methodology will also serve as a reference for future publications about this study.
Study design
We performed a two-armed randomized controlled trial.
We studied the following hypothesis: H0: training GPs in early identification of palliative care patients and proactive care planning will not increase the percentage of patients that die at home, will not reduce the amount of hospital admissions and will not reduce the number of contacts with the out of hours primary care service. This hypothesis will be rejected if the training has a significant positive effect on these aspects of care.
Power calculation
Sample size was based on number of contacts with the out of hours primary care service. To detect a difference between the intervention and the control group with a power of 80% and an alpha error of 0.05 minimum sample size was 96 patients in both groups when 20% reduction in out of hours contacts was considered.
GPs in two comprehensive cancer centre (IKO and IKZ) regions in the South-East of the Netherlands were invited by mail to participate in the study. After one month a reminder was send to non-responders. Excluded were GPs who are consultant in palliative care or who are locum. GPs that wanted to participate were stratified for degree of urbanization and working hours (part-time or full-time) and were randomized assigned to the intervention or the control condition by an independent statistician. To prevent contamination, those GPs working together in the same practice were placed in the same study group.
Ethical considerations
The study was conducted after approval of the research ethics committee of the Radboud University Nijmegen Medical Centre in accordance with the Medical Research Involving Human Subjects Acts (WMO). Patient and physician anonymity was guaranteed throughout the registration and data entry process. Patients and their informal caregiver were invited to participate by their GP. If they agreed to participate in the longitudinal study they received a patient information letter and an informed consent form. Trial registration has been obtained. (The Netherlands National Trial Register: NTR2815)
The intervention
The intervention for the GPs in the experimental condition consisted of three consecutive parts.
- Part one
Table 1. The RADboud indicators of PAlliative Care needs (RADPAC)
Table 2. Reminder for proactive planning and disease specific potential problems
- second part
- third part
Control group
GPs in the control group were asked to provide usual care. They were not trained and had no access to RADPAC, nor to the PPCPC. Consultation by telephone with the palliative care helpdesk of the Comprehensive Cancer Centre was possible as usual. This service is available 24/7 for all GPs in the two comprehensive cancer centre regions in the South-East of the Netherlands; mostly these consultations are on problems in the terminal phase for which the GP needs specialised advice for acute problems. For GPs in the control group a training will be organized after the intervention study is closed.
Data collection
At the start of the study (t = 1), GPs in the intervention group were asked to use RADPAC to screen the medical records of all patients in their practice to identify patients with COPD, CHF or cancer who potentially could benefit from a palliative care approach. They were instructed to continue to use RADPAC each time new data of a patient with CHF, COPD or progressive cancer was available. In 2011, anonymous data were collected retrospectively from the medical records of all patients that had a non-acute death during the intervention period, as well in the intervention as in the control practices (t = 2). All deceased patients who were diagnosed with CHF, COPD and/or cancer were included (Figure 2). Each non-planned (out of hour) contact and hospital or nursing home admission during the study was derived from the medical record and registered as well as place of death and if the patient had been identified as being in the palliative trajectory. Besides, qualitative data were collected concerning proactive care planning in both study groups.
Figure 2. Study design randomized controlled trial.
GPs of both study groups were invited to extract data of all patients that died during the observational period from the medical records: demographics, disease history, place of death, hospital admissions and out of hours consultations. Of each participating GP, demographic characteristics, practice characteristics and their interest in palliative care were collected (Table 3).
Table 3. Baseline characteristics participating GPs# (n = 133)
Data management and plan of statistical analysis
All data were entered in a database and analysed with SPSS 16.0. In both study groups, all patients who died during the inclusion and observation period of the study of a non-acute death, were included in the retrospective analysis. Intervention and control group will be compared on the main outcomes (place of death, number of transitions and out of hours contact, amount of identified patients). Recruitment rates and drop-out rates will be calculated. In case denominators prove to be significantly correlated with the outcome of the main study question, an Anova will be performed to identify potential related or independent factors. Multilevel analysis will be performed.
The present study has been designed to assess the effects of training GPs in early identification and a proactive palliative care approach regarding patients with COPD, CHF or cancer.
Up to now, hardly any data are available about implementing the 2002 WHO-definition for palliative care. To our knowledge this is the first intention to treat RCT that assesses the effect of training GPs in early identification and using a proactive holistic palliative care approach, which are the main aspects of this definition. The training for the GPs in the intervention group was standardised and piloted, to minimize differences between the two trainers and to be available for future courses. The tools that the GPs in the intervention group could use for helping to identify palliative patients in an earlier stage than usual and to structure the proactive care planning, were developed in a scientifically sound way. Results will be published in peer-reviewed scientific journals and will be communicated to relevant clinician associations.
Those GPs that were interested to take part in the study, probably have a special interest in palliative care. Besides, as there is a lot of attention for proactive palliative care in medical journals and in Dutch policy, GPs in the control group might be influenced by new information or followed courses. This implies that it might be difficult to find significant differences between intervention and control group. As patients were identified by their own GP, we were not able to influence this process directly.
We did not choose to collect prospective patient data in the control group, as this would be a sort of intervention. Therefore, effect measurement took place retrospectively. GPs in both intervention and control group were asked to collect retrospective data from their digital patient information system. This implies that we do not have patient data of non-responding GPs.
We performed a multifaceted intervention: a combination of training GPs and offering them tools to facilitate early identification and proactive care planning. Usually, multifaceted interventions are more effective than single interventions,[36] but the relative impact of each component of the intervention cannot be established.
The present study will increase the knowledge about the effect of training GPs in early identification and a proactive palliative care approach. This knowledge is of importance to improve palliative care for patients with COPD, CHF and cancer and their informal caregivers, as well as to empower the GP. Here, the study protocol is described and possible strengths and weaknesses and possible consequences have been outlined.

Hey, I'm Claire!
I was born in London and have lived in Shoreditch for 13 years.
My flats are full of original pieces of art and furniture by many artists and it's all for sale!
I exhibit frequently in both London and New York and I have art studios in Hoxton and Williamsburg.
I love London and I hope to show off the best of it!
I'm very happy to recommend local galleries, bars, cafes or clubs. It might also be possible to use my art studio, which is 3 minute walk from the flat.
I'm also a keen distance runner, so let me know if you want any advice on running routes. It's possible to run for 20 or 30 miles through parks, along canals, marshes and woodland - only being on a road for a couple of minutes from the flat!
I speak French, some Spanish and a little Japanese.

FRANKLIN LAKES, N.J., Oct. 8 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Cancer treatments are on track to become the biggest driver of specialty pharmacy spending as its contribution to overall drug spending hit five percent for the first time in the first half of 2009, according to Medco Health Solutions, Inc. (NYSE: MHS). Oncology specialty drug spending increased 15.1 percent last year, trailing only medications for autoimmune conditions and multiple sclerosis as a specialty drug growth driver. Driven by medications that can cost tens of thousands of dollars per course of therapy and a deep pipeline of new targeted products with fewer side effects than traditional chemotherapy, worldwide sales of these medications are expected to reach $80 billion by 2012.
"Targeted cancer therapies have dramatically reshaped oncology and greatly benefited cancer patients," said Dr. Robert S. Epstein, Medco's chief medical officer. "The newer cancer drugs improve survival rates since they target what fuels the cancer's growth. As some may extend life, they may be used for longer periods of time and improve quality of life for millions of patients. Due to the higher costs of these treatments, however, proper selection and dosing is extremely important."
Combinations of oral oncology drugs and injectable monoclonal antibodies from the biotech industry are big drivers of drug spending and this trend is likely to continue as existing treatments gain additional approvals and new drugs reach the market.
Presently more than 800 drugs are under investigation for treatment of cancer, which is expected to be diagnosed 1.48 million times this year. Early detection and more effective, well-tolerated medications are allowing some cancers to behave like chronic diseases. According to the American Cancer Society, cancer patients today are living longer than a generation ago with the five-year relative survival rate for all cancers combined between 1996-2004 reach

|Paul Pierce bounced from World Series of Poker
|07.12.11 at 9:44 am ET
Paul Pierce had already been a world champion in his own occupation and this summer, with the NBA players locked out by the owners, he had tried to become a champion in one of his hobbies: Texas Hold 'Em poker. The Celtics captain posted the $10,000 entry fee for the World Series of Poker's main event and lasted 17 hours and 40 minutes on the felt before he was finally left without any chips late Monday night, according to the ESPN Poker Blog.
Pierce lasted longer than more than half of the 2,031 hopefuls who entered the popular competition in Las Vegas's Rio casino but fell well short of finishing in the money. He went all-in with a 2-2 – interestingly enough, Pierce has averaged 22.2 points per game during his 13-year NBA career – but the C's swingman ran into a pair of Jacks and there would be no luck of the Irish on the flop. He exited to a round of applause from the Rio crowd as well as his fellow gamblers.
|Celtics extend qualifying offer to Jeff Green, make him restricted free agent
|06.30.11 at 1:56 pm ET
The Celtics extended forward Jeff Green a one-year qualifying offer at $5.9 million, which will make the forward a restricted free agent. The move was procedural and gives the team the right to match any offer Green receives once the league opens — or rather re-opens — for business following a lockout that could start as early as midnight on July 1.
The team also announced that they have exercised the third-year option on Avery Bradley. For first round picks, the first two years of their contracts are guaranteed. The team has options on the third and fourth years before a player can become a restricted free agent like Green is now.
Green can still sign a long-term extension with the team once the new Collective Bargaining Agreement rules in place or he could return for the one-year offer and become an unrestricted free agent next summer. The Celtics could also let him walk if another team offers a huge deal, but that seems unlikely as they have maintained that he is a part of their long-term plans.
Yet the Celtics have also carefully planned to have as much cap space as possible after next season and it will be interesting to see how much they ultimately invest in his services. It wouldn't be the worst thing for the franchise if Green simply came back for the one-year offer and kept the books clear for the summer of 2012. Of course all the roster speculation is premature until the new CBA rules are in place.
The question for the Celtics and Green — assuming he does return — is what kind of player will he be for them?
Green arrived from Oklahoma City in the Kendrick Perkins trade with the expectation that he would provide scoring and athleticism off the bench, as well as a solid backup for Paul Pierce. Green averaged 9.8 points and 3.3 rebounds in 26 games for the Celtics and while his minutes were cut from 37 in OKC to 23 with the C's, that was essentially the same production he gave the Thunder. On the plus side his field goal percentage jumped from 44 to 49 percent, but his 3-point shooting dipped under the 30-percent line.
After four years in the league, Green seems to have settled in as a good but not great player, which doesn't exactly translate into future franchise cornerstone. But the Celtics believe that he still has room to develop, particularly with a full training camp under his belt.
"I think Jeff played excellent," team president Danny Ainge said in an end of the season media session in May. "Maybe the expectations were too high. We knew he wasn't going to start. We knew he wasn't going to play 35 minutes. We needed a veteran player, an experienced player, an athletic player. We know what Jeff Green is. He's a highly efficient offensive player who plays good defense. That's what we need and he's young and I think he's just going to get better because of his character and work ethic."
The problem — as it was last season — is finding a role for Green. Ainge floated the idea of starting Green and using Pierce off the bench, which seems like a reach considering Pierce is one of the best players in franchise history and still playing at an All-Star level.
While Pierce's minutes are likely to go down next season that's still only about 15 minutes of action. Green also struggled defensively as a four-man, although that had a lot to do with whoever was playing center. When he was in the lineup with Pierce and Kevin Garnett for example, he did just fine. When he teamed with Glen Davis to form an undersized frontcourt, not so much. Adding legitimate depth at center behind Jermaine O'Neal and rookie JaJuan Johnson can only help Green.
The Celtics believe that they can contend for a championship again next season with their core players in place, provided they receive some help from free agency and their young players develop into contributors. But no player needs to help more than Green.
If Ainge is right that Green's best years are ahead of him he can give the Celtics a dimension they've lacked since the big three era began. If this is as good as it gets then it doesn't seem likely that Green will be enough to get them past Miami and Chicago.
|NBA mock draft roundup: Who the experts say the Celtics will select
|06.22.11 at 1:45 pm ET
The 2011 NBA draft is scheduled for Thursday night, with the Celtics holding picks No. 25 (first round) and 55 (second round).
The Celtics have used the draft for players that have played a significant role in the team's growth. They selected Paul Pierce in the first round back in 1998. They also selected Jeff Green in the first round of the 2007 draft before trading him to the SuperSonics in a deal that got the Celtics Ray Allen. Other notable Celtics draft picks of late include Avery Bradley and Luke Harangody last year, Ryan Gomes in 2005 and Al Jefferson, Delonte West and Tony Allen in 2004.
Many draft experts have weighed in with their thoughts about how this draft will play out, with no consensus on which direction the Celtics will go.
ESPN's Chad Ford writes that the Celtics will take enigmatic center Jeremy Tyler. Tyler decided to try playing professional basketball in Israel after his junior year of high school in San Diego. It didn't work out for him, so he took his talents to Japan to play in that country's professional basketball league.
Noted Ford: 'The Celtics are going to start rebuilding soon, and they need to hit a home run again the same way they did with Rajon Rondo. Tyler could be that guy. If he had played in college, he might have had a chance to be a top-10 pick with his talent.'
In the second round, Ford has the Celtics taking Jamine Peterson, a forward who played two seasons at Providence before jumping to the NBDL last year.
Sports Illustrated's Sam Amick has the Celtics staying local and selecting Boston College guard Reggie Jackson. 'Apparently, the Celtics aren't concerned about Jackson's minor knee surgery in mid-May, as a source insists he won't get past Boston,' Amick wrote. 'He would need some grooming, but the lengthy, two-way player could eventually be a dynamic option behind Rajon Rondo.'
Fox Sports' mock draft has the Celtics taking forward Trey Thompkins out of Georgia at No. 25, noting that Thompkins has some solid offensive skills. 'Thompkins is a highly skilled offensive player with a pretty jump shot and range out to the college 3. He doesn't wow you with athleticism, but his skill level is that of an NBA vet. He has struggled some this year without a playmaker setting him up, but remains a refined big man with solid potential.'
|Transcript of Shaquille O'Neal on D&C: 'I didn't want to let the people of Boston down two years in a row'
|06.03.11 at 11:06 am ET
Future Hall of Famer Shaquille O'Neal called in to the Dennis & Callahan show Friday morning, the day of his scheduled press conference at his Orlando house to formally announce his retirement after one injury-plagued season with the Celtics and 19 years in the NBA.
Asked if this is a happy or sad day, O'Neal said: "A little bit of both. Business-wise, I felt that the Boston organization and the people of Boston treated me very, very well. I could have gotten a little minor surgery and then been out for nine months, but then we would have been in the same situation again, everybody sitting around waiting for me. So, I thought it was great business to let Danny [Ainge] go out and get some younger talent."
Added O'Neal: "I didn't want to let the people of Boston down two years in a row."
Asked if he's 100 percent certain that he will stay retired, Shaq coyly replied: "For now, yes."
Following is a transcript of the conversation. To hear the interview, go to the Dennis & Callahan audio on demand page.
The big question is where does Shaq appear on the Mount Rushmore of big men in the NBA. Is that a question you want to deal with?
I never really deal with it. For me, coming from where I come from, how I was taught to play the game ' my father used to mention all those great names to me. Like, "Son, when you block a shot, don't show off and knock it out of bounds. Keep in inbounds, like the great Bill Russell. Son, I need you to dominate. I need them to change the rules for you like they with Wilt Chamberlain. You know what, son, the jump hook is nice. I need you to shoot the little hook like Kareem [Abdul-Jabbar]."
So, for me to have my name mentioned next to those guys ' and you can't forget Chief, Robert Parish. He was great. too. So, for me to have my name mentioned up there, it's a blessing.
|Wyc Grousbeck on D&C: 'I want Miami to lose so badly'
|05.25.11 at 9:56 am ET
Celtics co-owner Wyc Grousbeck joined the Dennis & Callahan show Wednesday morning during a charity benefit for the Massachusetts Soldiers Legacy Fund at the Mandarin Oriental Hotel in Boston. To hear the interview, visit the Dennis & Callahan audio on demand page.
After the Celtics lost to the Heat in the Eastern Conference semifinals, Grousbeck was asked if he is still watching the playoffs. "I am watching this year because I want Miami to lose so badly," he said, adding "I'm rooting hard against the Heat."
Grousbeck said he will be rooting for the Mavericks the rest of the way because of his relationship with Mavs owner Mark Cuban. Said Grousbeck: "I love the guy. … He's just a good guy. He genuinely roots for us against other teams. He is a Celtics fan when he's not a Mavs fan. And we're going to return the favor."
Grousbeck did give the Heat credit. "I thought they outplayed us in the series," he said. "They had more juice. They had more pop. I can't really deny that. I would have loved to take that Monday night game in Boston and make it 2-2 and see what happened. I think we might have won the thing. But I don't really regret with like a huge missed chance. I'm just annoyed we didn't beat them."
When asked about the trade of Kendrick Perkins, Grousbeck said he felt Perkins was not the difference in losing to the Heat. "I love Perk, but I don't think our issue was guarding their 5 spot," he said. "Our issue was guarding their 2, 3 and 4. So, not only did we need Jeff Green, we needed about three more of him."
Grousbeck played down the chemistry factor. "We had gotten that far in the season without Perk. He hadn't played essentially the entire season," Grousbeck said. "So, we were starting the games with [Shaquille O'Neal] and finishing the games with [Glen Davis]. And that would have continued in the playoffs if Perk was there. So, Perk wouldn't have been starting if Shaq had been healthy.
"Where the plan fell short is Shaq not being able to come back; we thought he could."
|Doc Rivers on D&C: 'I just thought it was time to show' loyalty
|05.16.11 at 10:37 am ET
Celtics coach Doc Rivers joined the Dennis & Callahan show Monday morning, three days after agreeing to a five-year contract extension to remain with the team.
Rivers said that rumors he was contemplating whether to take a sabbatical from coaching so that he could spend more time with his family weren't accurate ' at least not this year.
"Last year, they were probably more right," he said. "Last year I was absolutely leaning that way. This year I really never was. After last year's summer and going through the decision that we went through, I was pretty sure I was coming back and I was pretty sure I wanted to come back here.
"This is a special place. And I've said that before. You can't get a lot of these jobs where you coach teams like the Celtics, or the Red Sox, or the Yankees, and I have one of them. I work with a great GM in Danny Ainge and I have good ownership. So, why change?"
Following is a transcript of the conversation. To hear the interview, go to the Dennis & Callahan audio on demand page.
Doc, if you don't mind revealing this, whose idea was it for the longterm contract? Was it you that wanted the extra years, or did Danny want to lock you up for the extra years? Whose idea was it?
Danny brought it up to me. When he first brought it up, I was surprised by it. This was a while ago that he brought it up. I think actually he brought up even more years to start.
I never thought of it in those terms. Because we kept doing these one-year or two-year deals, and I never thought of it. Danny walked in my office and said, "Listen, I want you to be here with me for a long time. And I want to make this something where we're together for a long time." And so he brought up the number of years.
You've got to process that when you commit to something for that long. We did, and we thought it was the right thing to do.
|Irish Coffee: Cutting Big Three's minutes to win it
|05.13.11 at 1:04 pm ET
Wake up with the Celtics and your daily dose of Irish Coffee '¦
Plenty of Celtics president of basketball operations Danny Ainge's comments on The Big Show on Thursday incited debate, and perhaps none more than the potential of bringing team captain Paul Pierce off the bench in favor of starting Jeff Green next season.
"Maybe Paul comes off the bench to cut down on his minutes. '¦ That's just hypothetical," said Ainge. "I have no idea if that's going to happen. If Jeff is back next year, I think his role will be expanded, and it wouldn't shock me if the starting five is different."
Now, whether or not Pierce becomes the team's Sixth Man in 2011-12 (doubtful, in my eyes), Ainge's larger point is a good one: The Celtics need to cut down on the minutes next year for Pierce, Kevin Garnett, Ray Allen and possibly even Rajon Rondo, and the best way to do that is to increase opportunities for young talent like Green (age 24), Avery Bradley (20) and Free Agent X.
As a result of injuries to Delonte West, Marquis Daniels and the O'Neal "brothers," Celtics coach Doc Rivers called on the Big Four more over the course of this regular season than he did in 2009-10, when the C's reached the NBA Finals. With three of those guys entering the autumn of their careers and the other dealing with injuries to almost every part of his body, that's not what the Doc was looking for.
Here are the per-minute averages for the Celtics' core for the last two regular seasons …
- Paul Pierce: 34.0 in 2009-10, and 34.7 in 2010-11
- Ray Allen: 35.2 in 2009-10, and 36.1 in 2010-11
- Kevin Garnett: 29.9 in 2009-10, and 31.3 in 2010-11
- Rajon Rondo: 36.6 in 2009-10, and 37.2 in 2010-11
Those numbers should be declining, not climbing (unless, in Rondo's case, he's completely healthy). It's kind of like when people sell their grandfather's 1988 Buick with only 97,000 miles on it: "Other than running a few errands during the week, he mostly drove it on the highway to see his grandchildren every Sunday." In this scenario, the playoffs would be that Sunday drive out on the highway.

I just couldn't resist this lovely little pattern by Quince & Co — even though I can't sell their patterns and I don't think I've knit anything that I don't sell in years and years.
Doesn't it just say "Spring?" In fact, I had started another sweater, but just barely, and then saw this one and switched (pulling out a couple inches of knitting!).
I love how knitting is a year-round hobby now. It used to be so hard to find pretty patterns and lovely yarns that weren't terribly bulky. Aren't we lucky?
Happy knitting!
