|Ray Allen misses practice to be with ill son
|11.28.09 at 1:55 pm ET
WALTHAM — Ray Allen is spending time with his ill son and may not be available for Sunday night's game in Miami in the opener of the team's four-game road trip. Allen was not at Celtics practice on Saturday.
Walker Allen was diagnosed with diabetes during the 2008 NBA Finals and Allen spent the night with him on Friday night after getting word after the game that he was not feeling well.
"There really is no update," Celtics coach Doc Rivers said following practice. "It's more his son. He's [caring for] Walker, obviously. That's why he's not around."
Rivers then was asked if he'd be available for Sunday in Miami.
"We don't know yet," Rivers said.
The team left for Miami following their Saturday practice at the Sports Authority complex in Waltham.
|Celts' struggles, by the numbers
|11.23.09 at 2:37 pm ET
After 14 games, the Celtics are 10-4, comfortably in first place in their division and just one game behind the league leaders (Atlanta, Orlando and Phoenix, who all beat the Celtics in the last 10 days). The Celtics also have the NBA's best point differential at +8.8, and point differential is a more reliable indicator than record.
Despite all that, something seems wrong with the Celtics, who needed overtime to get past a dreadful Knicks team and have lost three of their last five, with all three losses coming against the aforementioned teams with better records. So, what gives?
First, their record and point differential are skewed from the first five games of the season, when the C's ran roughshod over the league and people started seriously considering 72 wins. The Celtics won the next game, 92-90, against Minnesota, but that's when their play started to slip.
Record: 5-0
Point differential: +21.6
Points for: 101.4
Points against: 79.8
Record: 5-4
Point differential: +1.7
Point for: 96.7
Points against: 95
By far the biggest slip in terms of individual offensive numbers belongs to Rasheed Wallace, who made 15 of his first 33 3-point attempts through the first five games and has been 7-for-48 from beyond the arc ever since. Wallace has acknowledged that he's in a slump, but the general consensus is that he is taking good shots and they're just not falling for him. That happens. On the positive side, it has not affected Wallace's defense.
Ray Allen has been a similar 3-point shooting slump, although not nearly as pronounced. Through five games, Allen was 9-for-21. He is 7-for-29 in the last nine. Despite shooting 32 percent from 3-point range, Allen has continued to be a productive offensive player by shooting 57 percent on his 2-point shots (60-for-106).
Digging a little bit deeper, 82games.com has Allen as the Celtics' most productive player in terms of on-court plus/minus with Wallace second, so while their shooting slumps may account for the Celtics' drop offensively, the real issue is a defense that went from giving up less than 80 points a night (a number that is skewed by holding Charlotte to 59 points) to one that is surrendering 95.
After we plow through the numbers on 82games.com, a few things stand out.
The C's defense on jump shots is worse than last year (.433, 48.1 points per game vs. .417, 43.4 points per game) and they are also struggling defending teams at the end of the shot clock compared to last season (.491 compared to .447). This brings up something Doc Rivers said last week:
"Some of our defensive sets have been very good, and then with five seconds left on the clock the guy dribbling the ball gets all the way to the basket and that's not just the guy guarding the ball."
That speaks to effort, fatigue or just plain understanding the defensive system. It's probably safe to rule out effort with this group, and "understanding the system" should work itself out in time, but it does explain Rivers saying that the team was "making stuff up" after the Orlando loss. That leaves fatigue, and it's worth noting that the Celtics' biggest wins during this stretch ' Utah and Golden State ' came after multiple days off.
That, in a nutshell, is what makes people wary about the Celtics come playoff time. The good news is that we are a long way from April, and most teams would love to struggle out of the gate at 10-4. To be sure, there are other issues, particularly a lack of offensive rebounding and fewer trips to the free throw line, but age will continue to be the dominant theme from here on out.
|Magic know formula to beat Celtics
|11.21.09 at 12:05 am ET
BOSTON ' It has been nearly a year since the Magic faced a healthy Celtics squad. On Friday they proved they can beat the Celtics with or without Kevin Garnett.
'It's very important especially when they are full strength to show you that we're still a good team,' Rashard Lewis told WEEI.com after the Magic's 83-78 victory (Recap). 'You know they're a great team. This is only one game, it's early in the season and I definitely would not count them out at all. Every time we play the Boston Celtics it's going to be a tough, tough game.'
The Celtics were 0-2 last regular season against the Magic without Garnett and were eliminated from the Eastern Conference Semifinals by the Magic without him. But the truth is, the Magic have held their own against the Celtics in recent years. They improved to 5-3 against the Cs since the 2007-08 regular season.
'I think the biggest thing playing their team is not allowing them to get a lot of second chance points, hold them to one shot, and then run,' said Dwight Howard.
The Celtics actually outshot the Magic 87-to-70 from the floor, but the Magic shot 10-for-22 from three-point range while Celtics were a mere 2-for-19. Vince Carter attempted 29 field goals — 'All of them weren't open, I'll be the first to tell you that,' he said with a laugh — the same number as Ray Allen and Paul Pierce combined. Stifling the Celtics offense was a must-do for the Magic.
'You've got to play defense,' said Lewis. 'I think every time we play this team we really buckle down on the defensive end and we try to take their main guys out ' Ray Allen at the three-point line, and we try to crowd Paul Pierce and make other guys beat us. Tonight I think we did a good job of that.'
The Celtics lost their lead just three minutes into the first quarter, and the Magic held off a 17-12 fourth quarter run after Rasheed Wallace tied the game at 78 apiece. Lewis said his team regained their composure after coach Stan Van Gundy called a timeout and buckled down, realizing how easily the Celtics can fight back from a double-digit deficit. The Magic diminished the Celtics homecourt advantage and held on in the TD Garden's playoff atmosphere.
'We're not going to do that [back down] to anybody,' said Jason Williams. 'I mean, we feel that we're just as good as anybody else. So if we come out and do what we're supposed to do, we're going to win more times than not.'
On Friday night, like they have so many times in recent games against the Celtics, the Magic came out on top. Neither team can read too much into this victory, though. While the Magic know how to beat the Celtics, but they also know either team is capable of winning at any time.
'I don't want to say we got their number because anything can happen on any given night,' said Lewis. 'Tonight the ball kind of bounced our way and towards the end of the game we were able to get away. It's not like we blew them out. We won by like four points so it could have easily gone the other way.'
|Magic: Can't Afford to Foul Rondo
|11.20.09 at 7:46 pm ET
BOSTON — Even though Rajon Rondo enters Friday's game shooting a mere 25 percent from the free throw line, the Magic are not going to give him extra trips to the charity stripe. Just because free throws have been a weakness for Rondo this season that doesn't mean the same is true for his teammates.
'With their team you don't want to foul unnecessarily,' said Anthony Johnson. 'Even though maybe he's not shooting well, Paul Pierce, KG, all the other guys, they're going to draw fouls.'
In spite of Rondo's struggle (4-16 FG), the Celtics are still in the middle of the pack around the league. Ray Allen is ranked eighth in the NBA (89.3%) while Shelden Williams and Pierce are both shooting better than 80 percent.
'If you waste your fouls on Rondo, it's going to help them as a team get into the bonus and it's going to give those guys free points,' Johnson said. 'So as much as possible we want to keep them off the line, including him, and try to make them make tough shots over the top of us.'
The Magic have a lot more to worry about with Rondo than just free throws. They are without starting point guard Jameer Nelson (knee) and will depend on veterans Johnson and Jason Williams to contain Rondo.
"He's a guy that plays with a lot of energy offensively and defensively so you've got to always keep him in front of you, don't allow him to really dictate the tempo with his ball pressure and just putting pressure on our defense getting into the paint," said Johnson. "So we're going to have to keep him in front of us and not let him orchestrate and make all the big plays."

|Kevin Garnett on D&H, 11/19
|11.19.09 at 4:01 pm ET
Celtics forward Kevin Garnett joined the Dale & Holley Show on Thursday. The Celtics star discussed his health, the challenge of returning from injury, the impact of Rasheed Wallace on the Celtics and the state of this season's team.
Highlights are transcribed below. To listen to the complete interview, click here.
Last week Rasheed Wallace said he might not have an outside range. What's yours, 75-feet?
Well, if you want to take that shot last night, probably about 80 to 75-feet, yeah, that's about accurate, yeah.
You called it in the air didn't you?
I called it when I let it go, and then Don Nelson sort of said something to me. That's why my reaction was the way it was, because I knew when I let it go, it felt good, but you never know in those situations. I let it go, it felt good, ooh, went in.
I'm wondering if fear is the right word to use when you had a major injury for the first time in your career. When you didn't know what was going on, were you fearful at all about what was going on in there?
I fear God and I fear my mother, that's about the only thing in life, other than that it was just straight up pain. At one point I thought it was something that I could play through, I knew when I got home and when I was in my own personal space, that's when I knew it was something serious. Walking up steps, sitting down, laying out on the floor, stretched out on the floor, my leg was constantly bothering me.
And you're talking about a lot of activity, so when I really started to take it serious and the more I got educated on what was going on, that's when I started to make decisions health wise, what was best for me. I was running like I was running with a peg leg, and Doc in practice was like, this is terrible to watch. My effort, I pretty much through was there, I tried to come back, play a couple games, I knew that I was hurt, I knew that I was really hurt, but I was trying to grind through it, trying to give Paul and the rest of these guys some support.
But I just knew at the same time I was probably making it worse by playing. I had a very, very, very rare injury, obviously bone spurs but the size of the spur was pretty irregular, and pretty dramatic. It wasn't until I got to see it then I took it a lot more serious, but until that point I was built off hard work and dedication to your craft. I haven't changed that since I got here, I've always felt like mind over matter, you know the mind tells the body, but at some point the mind has to listen to the body. Read the rest of this entry »

THE NEW BERLIN -- Building on the Rubble of History; Once Again, a City Rewards the Walker
By HERBERT MUSCHAMP
Published: April 11, 1999
BERLIN— IT'S safe to go walking again in Berlin. In fact, the time has come for city lovers to reclaim Germany's once and future capital as a spiritual home. For it was here, in the early decades of the century, that flanerie -- the practice of strolling leisurely around a big city just to take in the sights -- came into its own as a modern art form. After 12 years of Nazi brutality and 44 years of cold war, this gentle art has once again become a possibility.
There are many new sights to take in. Buildings by Rafael Moneo, Dominique Perrault, Richard Rogers, Jean Nouvel, Josef Kleihues and other luminaries of contemporary architecture. Scores of office buildings in a crisp modern idiom. Vibrantly restored landmarks in the former Eastern sector, like the Hackesche Hof, a complex of galleries, design studios, cafes and courtyards that has become the center of Berlin's architectural life. The former showcase of the West is now a gateway to the East, a part of the globe caught up in writing a new chapter of world history. Berlin is suffused with the promise and anxiety of that enterprise.
The flaneur, initially a French type, entered literature in the 19th century in the writing of Charles Baudelaire. But, as Anke Gleber recounts in her fine new book, ''The Art of Taking a Walk,'' it was in Weimar Berlin that the literature of city walking blossomed into an intellectual movement. Walter Benjamin's ''One-Way Street,'' Siegfried Kracauer's ''Streets in Berlin'' and Franz Hessel's ''Sightseeing Trip'' celebrate flanerie as an essential education in modern sensibility.
These writers viewed Berlin through lenses cut and polished by the young century's art movements: Futurism, Cubism, Expressionism, Surrealism. For them, the modern industrial city might not be a work of art, but walking through it could be. Bustling crowds, shop windows, arc lights, neon signs, cinemas, hotel lobbies, grand cafes, posters, handbills, advertising kiosks, the rustle of newspapers, the movement of trams and cars, the accelerating pace of urban change: all this added up to something more than idle spectacle. It was the leading university for training minds to comprehend the modern world.
Benjamin's 1928 essay ''One-Way Street'' is perhaps the crucial text of flaneur writing. In it, Benjamin records the impressions of a walker forever seeking the next vista, the next streetscape, the next corner at which to turn. For the book's first edition, the cover shows a trio of one-way street signs: arrows pointing to the left, the word Einbahnstrasse emblazoned within them.
The sign evokes the arrow of time. Like the flaneur, the city is moving ever forward. After World War I, Wilhelmine Berlin, the imperial city, is breaking up like an ice floe. Its fragments recede into the past, along with the social stability that the imperial monuments were designed to reinforce.
Last February, I went to Berlin to follow in the footsteps of the Weimar flaneurs. A paradoxical task to assign oneself: even if much of the flaneurs' Berlin had not been physically obliterated by hot and cold war and urban redevelopment, retrospection runs counter to the flaneurial spirit. But Berlin is now a city of two-way streets. All those building cranes swiveling confidently on the skyline proclaim City on the Move! Advance! This Way Forward! But this has also become a city where much of the traffic is headed backward: toward history, memory and their traces.
And the post-cold-war years have revealed a Berlin that is a museum of itself. The city's International Style buildings have become period pieces that one passes on the way to other period pieces: The Reichstag. The Victory Column. The Schinkel buildings. The New Synagogue. Brandenburg Gate. Monuments of the Soviet era. In today's Berlin, a cup and saucer from the legendary Cafe Yosty, retrieved from the rubble around the wall, have acquired an aura nearly as precious as Schliemann's gold. Chunks of the wall itself, like the Elgin marbles, have entered museums. The limestone facade and gilded public rooms of the fabled Hotel Esplanade are enshrined within a new apartment block of steel and glass.
Walking eastward along the southern edge of the Tiergarten, we come upon the Culture Forum, a trio of modern buildings that are especially poignant: Mies van der Rohe's New National Gallery, Hans Scharoun's Philharmonic Hall and the same architect's State Library. Though built after the war, they were designed by architects who attained prominence in the Weimar years. Disconnected from one another by roads, traffic, parking and their own monumentality, the three buildings float in an urban vacuum: an art museum, a library, a concert hall in the center of a city where books were burned, paintings banned, music silenced, culture extinguished.
Metal Forest of Cranes
Beyond these modern landmarks lies the one-time heart of the flaneur universe: Potsdamer Platz. For the last five years, this has been the largest construction site in Europe: the densest part of the city's metal forest of cranes. Here, Germany has concentrated its hopes for Berlin: capital city, city of tomorrow, millennial metropolis.

Weekly Comic Bunch (Japanese: 週刊コミックバンチ Hepburn: Shūkan Komikku Banchi?) is a defunct Japanese manga anthology marketed to adults that was edited by Coamix and published weekly by Shinchosha from 2001 throughout 2010. The collected editions of their titles were published under the Bunch Comics imprint.
In 2000, Nobuhiko Horie, former editor-in-chief of Weekly Shōnen Jump, along with former Jump authors who worked under Horie such as Tetsuo Hara and Tsukasa Hojo, founded the manga editing company Coamix, with Shinchōsha acting as their business partner. The first issue of Coamix's Comic Bunch was published on May 15, 2001. Prior to the publication of the actual first issue, Coamix released a free preview issue featuring artworks and interviews with various artists. The magazine was originally published on Tuesday, but was changed to Friday from 2002 and onward.
Shinchosha ceased publication of Weekly Comic Bunch with its August 27, 2010 issue. On the day of the final issue's publication, Shinchosha relaunched the official Comic Bunch website, announcing their plans to revive the magazine as a monthly publication titled Monthly Comics @ Bunch (月刊コミック@バンチ Gekkan Komikku Atto Banchi?), which later began publication on January 21, 2011. Coamix began publishing an unrelated manga anthology titled Monthly Comic Zenon, which debuted on October 25, 2010.[2]

Do heart rate monitors really help you train better?? Ive never been an endurance athlete, so i have no experience using these. Any tips or advice is welcome.
Dear friend !
If you take your training seriously, a heart rate monitor is a must. In the first place it makes sure that you won't overdo it. And it gives you such a lot of additional information (depending on the model). Depending on the distances that you train for, it makes you run as slow as necessary or as fast as you can. I definitely recommend it. I have a Polar SX 625 and generally it does it's job.
Keep up training
Agree, a HR monitor will tell you everything you need to know in order to reach your goal, fitness or competition.
So you dont do much and recover faster.
I hope it helps...

For some time now, I have had troubles getting Google Analytics to work properly on my generated Github Pages. I've used the default snippet provided by Google but I think that the crawler that is looking for the snippet looks in the url victorbjelkholm.github.com instead of victorbjelkholm.github.com/2012-I-Bilder/.

It looks like John Paulson and other hedge fund giants may get what they want as prospects wane for a Fannie Freddie overhaul bill to reach the Senate floor after a narrow banking committee vote last week. Did hosting a fundraiser for Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell in mid-March contribute to the current stall?
Why is a supposed seniors organization spending thousands of dollars advertising against a federal housing bill that doesn't target the elderly? Unsurprisingly: ideological, pro-corporate interests. In this instance, the Koch Brothers-connected (but not always loyal) 60 Plus Association used Medicare as a cover for its true agenda: fully privatizing the secondary mortgage market that is currently primarily covered by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.
Public Campaign President and CEO Nick Nyhart went on 920 KVEC's Dave Congalton Show Wednesday to talk about retired Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens' and U.S. Senator Tom Udall's (D-N.M.) proposed constitutional amendments. Nyhart summarized the possible amendments, their differences, and why public financing is a critical part of any changes in campaign finance laws.
On the democratic crisis that has born these two amendment proposals, Nyhart said:
Our citizenship should grant us equal access to government, but nearly half of Americans would be bankrupted by making a maximum donation to a federal candidate. Underscoring this fact, this April, two well-received publications further cracked the façade of American democratic accountability and economic mobility.
America's best-paid hedge fund managers are also some of its biggest political donors, according to Public Campaign analysis of data from the Center for Responsive Politics.
Congressman John Sarbanes (D-Md.) appeared on WYPR's Midday with Dan Rodricks Friday to talk about the Government by the People Act (HR 20), his own fundraising program modeled after the bill, and why there's growing support for small donor public financing on Capitol Hill.
New battleground state polling released today by Friends of Democracy, Greenberg Quinlan Rosner, and Public Campaign Action Fund shows that the American people, across party lines, are strongly opposed to the recent U.S. Supreme Court decision in McCutcheon v. FEC, which allowed for even more big money in elections, and favor the Government By the People Act (H.R.
Did you know the NRA is the biggest political financier of opposition to a federal minimum wage increase? No, not the gun lobby, but the National Restaurant Association. Public Campaign Action Fund's own Rahna Epting and LeeAnn Hall of the Community Organizations in Action tackled the other insidious NRA in their op-ed "The Triple Play Against Low Wage Workers: McCutcheon, McConnell, and McDonald's." They wrote:
Even though one in four Kentuckians would benefit from a minimum wage increase and Kentuckians support raising the minimum wage by a 2 to 1 margin, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell and his caucus filibustered a Democratic effort to move such an incr
Last week, New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie said there should be no limits on what individuals can donate to candidates for office--something that would hand our elections wholly over to a elite set of wealthy donors.
Public Campaign Action Fund's David Donnelly responded to Christie with an oped in New Jersey's Star-Ledger on Friday:

I have recently reloaded my wordpress.org page to fix some bugs that I accidentally aquired. Everything is working fine now, save for the fact that my blog title and the tag line are not showing. I've gone into the General Settings and changed the name and tagline, which has worked in the past. I'm afraid the problem lies in the code. I think it is within the "header.php" I found the following code, but am unsure as to how to edit it to make the blog title and tag line appear on my webpage.
<title><?php wp_title(''); ?><?php if(wp_title('', false)) { echo ' :'; } ?> <?php bloginfo('name'); ?></title>
<meta name="generator" content="WordPress <?php bloginfo('version'); ?>" />
Someone please help me!


text: CGCA is being pumped by various spammers like the "Dean" of collegestock.com so it may show some strength temporarily, but shouldn't. Why? Since inception in 2005 the company has lost a fairly staggering $62 million dollars while only spending a total of $800 dollars exploring for oil. I have heard about their western oil sands venture, but if you drain the oil from your car and take it to a recycling center you have found more oil than CGCA ever will. Definitely take the time to read the 10Q before sinking a single cent into this one.

Hi Anona,
Do you get the problem if you use the -d switch?
For speed & consistency in gathering data I collect info in XML format and then convert to HTML or Word using the conversion scripts.
When converting to word using ss-xml2word.vbs I get intermittant results with a windows popup saying "There are too many spelling & gramatical errors in document 1 to continue displaying them. To check spelling and grammer for this document, choose Spelling & Grammer from the tools menu"
When this occurs all processing of the ss-xml2word.vbs script halts until you acknowledge the popup to which it continues. If this error recurs several times (e.g. converting several documents) then the windows buffer appears to fill and then the script stops all together with the following error.
"ss-xml2word.vbs(1262, 2) (null): Call was rejected by callee."
I have tried manually turning off "check spelling & grammer as you type" within word and the problems still occurs.
I tried to attached an XML file which consistentaly causes this issue incase it is related to the data and not the script, however it was too large to update. Please email me and I will send seperately.
I call the ss-xml2word.vbs from a DOS batch file which I place in front of the SYDI scripts for ease of user input and to assist in automation of repetative tasks. The relevant section of the Batch file is as below:
REM Convert SINGLE XML output to HTML
SET PWD=%~dp0
SET RESULTS=%PWD%Results\ SET /P SERVER_NAME=Servername you wish to Convert:
if "%SERVER_NAME%"=="" SET SERVER_NAME=localhost
for %%i in ("%RESULTS%%SERVER_NAME%*.xml") do cscript.exe "%SYDI_TOOLS%sydi-transform.vbs" -x"%%i" -s"%XML_HTML_STYLESHEET%" -o"%RESULTS%%%~ni.html"
I will submit the entire Batch file to the community once completed as I find it useful for people who do not know scripting to still be able to document thier environment.

Release Date:
March 2, 2010
Technology runs amuck when an elite squad of police cyborgs turn on their masters in director Richard Pepin's action-packed sci-fi thriller. The future is now, and in order to minimize human casualties on the dangerous city streets, scientists have created a team lifelike androids that have been specially trained to do man's dirty work. Nicknamed the T-Force, these unstoppable humanoids are frequently sent to capture criminals who wouldn't hesitate to kill a flesh-and-blood cop. When the T-Force goes too far and shoots down a terrorist helicopter with six hostages on board, officials quickly decide to pull the plug on the project. The only problem is, the T-Force doesn't want to be shut down, and they have programmed themselves into extreme self-preservation mode as a precautionary safety measure. There is one lone cyborg who resisted the uprising though, and his name is Cain. When Lt. Jack Ford (Jack Scalia) is charged with the task of tracking down the renegade death machines, he's going to need all the help Cain can offer in order to take down the renegade robots restore order in the city. ~ Jason Buchanan, RoviA laid-back spoof of knights in shining armor, El Caballero del Dragon is set in a medieval European village, but the knight's armor is actually a spacesuit. Boetius (Klaus Kinski) is a necromancer and alchemist fawning after the near-senile Count of Rue (Jose Vivo). Opposite Boetius is Fray Lupo (Fernando Rey) a vile, hypocritical priest who also seeks the Count's favor. Meanwhile, a knight (Harvey Keitel) is romancing the Count's beautiful daughter Alba (Maria Lamor). When a "dragon" appears on the scene, it is actually the alien Ix (Miguel Bose) in a spacesuit. Ix meets the local VIPs and after some scandalous intrigue, his space ship takes off with two earthlings, leaving Ix for dead and the necromancer Boetius with his work cut out for him. ~ Eleanor Mannikka, RoviActor Ron Silver made his directorial debut with this made-for-TV, futuristic retelling of Alfred Hitchcock's Lifeboat, in which the survivors of a sabotaged spaceship must face mounting evidence that the terrorist responsible for their plight is among them. ~ Jason Ankeny, RoviAn American travelling abroad discovers that his brother has been murdered and sets about to discover the truth. The truth, however, is a bit more complex than he was expecting. ~ Rovi

Open Carry Demonstration Delayed Because of Chick-Fil-A Shooting
By Jacob Kauffman • Sep 21, 2013
Arkansas Carry, the group behind a march in August where attendees openly carried firearms, is postponing its next demonstration in Jonesboro. The death of a 17 year old last week caused by accidentally self-inflicted gun shot wounds at a Chick-Fil-A caused the group to postpone the event until October 6th.
Arkansas Carry members believe a recently passed state law allows them to openly carry firearms. But Arkansas State Police director Stan Witt and Attorney General Dustin McDaniel have said the law should not be interpreted to mean open carry is legal. But the march in Fort Smith last month was permitted and not hindered by law enforcement authorities.

LSU plays host to Ole Miss
Published: Friday, April 1, 2011 at 11:00 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, April 1, 2011 at 11:17 a.m.
BATON ROUGE — LSU (18-7, 1-5 SEC) plays host this weekend to Ole Miss (18-8, 3-3 SEC) in a three-game conference series.
LSU coach Paul Mainieri says freshman right-hander Kurt McCune will start on the mound Friday for the Tigers, followed by freshman right-hander Kevin Gausman on Saturday and senior right-hander Ben Alsup on Sunday.
McCune fired a complete-game six-hitter last Friday to lead the Tigers to a 7-3 win over Georgia. McCune, in his first career SEC road start, limited Georgia to three runs on six hits with one walk and seven strikeouts as he recorded the first complete game of the season by an LSU pitcher.
The Tigers are batting .309 as a team with 48 doubles, six triples, 18 homers and 49 steals on the year. The LSU pitching staff has a 3.62 ERA with 184 strikeouts and a .231 opponent batting average.

We'll get a better idea how good Hays is against Cal. Pitt is a weak team in
the weakest AQ conference. Cal is a weak team in a middling AQ conference, but
look like they are better than Pitt.
Utah just needed solid defense to get the win against Pitt. They will need solid defense and some offense to get the win against Cal.
A win against Cal, and U will be headed to the Las Vegas or New Mexico bowl. A loss today, and U may be bowling at the bowling alley in December.

Hey, cougfanintx, you need to worry more about your own compelling game today against your high school competition. What an exciting slate of games in store for you in these next few weeks. Idaho, Idaho State, New Mexico State, the list goes on and on.

I agree with CFinTx, the Utes can not soley rely on defense to win this game.
However, if John White can have another 150+ yard game, that will go a long way
to ease offensice woes. I do disagree that a loss at Cal would mean the Utes
will not go to a bowl game, however. I am pretty convinced the Utes will win
thier remaining home games and become bowl eligible, with or without the win
today. Wins are always welcome though.
Interestingly, the Utes are 3-0 against "big cats" beating Montana St. (Bobcats), BYU (Cougars), and Pitt (Panthers). They still have Arizona (Wildcats) and Washington St. (Cougars) on their schedule...To bad it's the bears today.

People can talk all they want about Utah's QB situation and make fun of Jon Hays all they want, but can you even imagine this sort of position if you were Jon or his family and the rollercoaster it would be?! In January, your greatest hopes and expectations are first to compete for the starting job on a DII team, where your greatest hopes would be to make the playoffs and play in games nobody 95% of the country doesn't know about. Then, with your JUCO eligibility expired, you probably consider your football career over when your new team disbands their program. And suddenly, you're starting a Pac 12 game against your childhood favorite team with your team's bowl eligibility hopes riding on your shoulders. This is one of the coolest stories of rising to the top I've ever been able to see as it is happening. Good for Jon, and Go Utes!

As good as Utah's defense is, the Utes can't rely on their defense to outscore
the opposition.
Total Utah offense in the first half: 35 yards, 41 passings, -6 rushing, 2 turnovers; punt, punt, fumble, punt, punt, int, half. OUCH!

HI everyone
I'm new to this forum so apologies in advance if I'm asking the wrong question in the wrong place, but I think I'm in the right area.
I'm having problems with my page titles. The text I input in Headspace 4 is not the same text that appears in the title bar.
Some of it is text that I have written before but changed. For some reason it keeps appearing.
The other issue is that the phrase Coast Copywriting seems to appear at the end of every page title as a default (which means the phrase gets repeated as I have included it sometimes already).
I hope this is clear.
Anyone can help with this - thanks.
Not sure if I put my website on my personal info

Most memorable Swan Lake endings... ?good or bad

certainly per-revolution, russian productions, employed the tragic ending w/ apotheosis as given in both the original and 1895 librettos.
Vaganova's 1930s production used a happy ending.
later, in the 1960s?, when Grigorovich proposed to re-instate the original ending in Soviet Russia, he was prevailed upon by the authorities not to do so.
i assume earlier Messere, post-Gorsky production for the Bolshoi also presented a happy ending.
too bad Demidov's monograph on SWAN LAKE has never been translated into english.

I like the Paris Opera Ballet ending, where Rothbart kills Siegfried and takes Odette away. The scene really suits the music.
Posted 17 November 2013 - 10:14 AM
I always wondered why Sawn Lake had to have a happy ending in the Soviet era but Bayadere, Giselle, etc, never did...
Communist doctrine did not dictate a "happy ending" but a resolution in this world. Communists were atheists who did not believe in a Christian afterlife where one could find happiness. Odette and Siegfried could not find happiness in an after life, but only during this life, if at all. Much of the challenge to Communism over the years came from the Christian religion in the Soviet Union and the nations of the Warsaw Pact who rejected atheism.

There is another great performance by the Paris Opera Ballet, with Agnes Letitsu and Jose Martinez. This is rapidly becoming my very favorite version. She flies off in the end with Rothbart but who cares, because the elegance and class act by all is what counts. Check it out Swan Lake: Paris Opera Ballet 2005
Posted 17 January 2016 - 06:40 AM
My favorite is in the Kirov video with Yevteyeva-Markovsk where he lifts Odette, then music changes for the walk/carry [music fits S/O not Rothbart], Siegfried throws Von Rothbart at 2:38 from a lift. [I would like to see the Bolshoi brides instead of the Mariinsky character dances.] In some versions is that beautiful music [Mariinsky long lift] used for Rothbart?

ABT's. It is the best rendition of the double suicide original version.
Agreed. SL must have a tragic ending. And ABT's has the most dramatic tragic ending. If Kevin restores the 4th act, it could be the most definitive of all current productions. All current productions have major flaws, let's see if Ratmansky's SL for Zurich and La Scala will end the drought.

Kent Stowell's production for Pacific Northwest Ballet is very faithful to the original intent, and includes significant chunks of what we understand to be original choreography (as it's been handed down -- he staged this in 2003, before the extensive use of the Stepanov scores) I have some quibbles with the sets, but the choreography is spot on. Very effective dance drama.
Odette returns to Rothbart, leaving Siegfried alive but bereft, if we're keeping score.
Posted 20 January 2016 - 09:24 PM
Odette returns to Rothbart, leaving Siegfried alive but bereft, if we're keeping score.
But...the original libretto calls for a double suicide, so I don't see how keeping Odette and Siegfried alive can be considered a faithful rendition.
Posted 25 January 2016 - 06:52 AM
However, I also really liked the ending to Wright's production for Swedish Royal Ballet. It felt genuine and fittingly dark for the production.
Posted 25 January 2016 - 10:03 AM
My favourite ending to Swan Lake will forever remain Hübbe & Schandorff's new version (for RDB) where (after Odette has disappeared off-stage, forever cursed to be a swan) Siegfried is forced by Rothbart to marry Odile. The entire political intrigue of it is wonderful, not to mention that there's something haunting about having to live with the consequences of your mistakes in life, rather than those mistakes necessarily leading to your demise.
Similar to the recovered ending to Giselle (which is in the Pacific Northwest Ballet reconstruction), where Bathilde approaches Albrecht at Giselle's grave, implying that she forgives him.

"service from Hell"
23rd August 2013, brazim, Fukuoka
NO outlets in the room. Had to unplug the kettle to get my fone charged. The wallpaper near my head was ripped, and the airconditioning wasnt working properly so we opened the window. Well we got a room full of bugs and mosquitos,because of this. Had to ask twice and eventually go down to the front desk to get the receptionist to do something ( absolute waste of time) he promised that he would have the maids do it the second morning He gave me a toxic spray that cant be sprayed in closed areas. Useless!. Nothing after a long day.exploring come back to a room full of bugs. Then when we checked out they apologized. Pissed me off that they were so useless and didnt give a hoot about it really.have fotos of everything to prove what i am stating.
"Great Location!"
9th August 2013, lovetotravel347, Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada
This was my 1st visit to Paris & was a wonderful experience. This hotel was a great location. The metro was right across the street. Was a 10 min walk to the Eiffel Tower. Had many great places to eat close by and even a grocery store a 5 min. walk away. Found the room quite small, but the staff were very friendly & helpful for any questions we had.
"Reasonable Hotel for an Expensive vacation"
23rd July 2013, Shayne B, Charlotte, United States
This hotel is within an easy walk to the Tour Eiffel and Fat Tire Bike Tours office. We booked 2 rooms, each with twin beds because king beds were not available. We were very comfortable in these basic accommodations. The rooms were clean and quiet despite the Dupliex Metro station being directly out our window. We stayed on the 4th floor and the rooms needed updating. There was no iron or wash clothes in the room. One of our rooms had cooling issues and required a change of rooms. The new room had some electrical outlet issues. The second room had a drainage issue in the bathroom sink. The hotel did address these issues promptly and to our satisfaction. The major warning we have is to NOT patron the Cafe Dupliex (on right when facing hotel). It is outrageously priced. A better option is to grab a bite at the bar on the other side (on left when facing hotel). The locals enjoy their beer until the late hours and coffee in the morning and the staff is friendly. The other option is to take a short walk to the Monoprix and grab groceries and drinks. Orangina is 1.95 euros versus 8.30 euros at the Cafe Dupliex. Overall, the hotel is a good value for the money. How long are you really in the room anyway, it's Paris!
"OK, but nothing special"
3rd July 2013, Ranger3484, Atlanta, Georgia, USA
Ok location and a handful of resturants and pubs nearby. Check in took a little longer than expected. The receptionist was in the back room on the phone and had us waiting at the desk for nearly 10 minutes before ending the call and checking us in. Upon entering the room I saw that my A/C was turned on but the room was very hot. I turned it to full cold and went out for a couple beers. When I got back to the room it was even hotter. I felt the vent and the air coming out of it was very warm. With that I turned the A/C off and opened the window. The next day I asked my friends (staying in a different room) what their temp was like. They said cold. After a little troubleshooting I found that my thermostat was wired backwards, and when I selected HEAT ON, the room cooled off nicely. First night's sleep with the window open was terrible. Room was hot and with a bar right below my window and train across the street it made for a noisy night. Second night was just fine.Overall, not bad for the money. Everything is so expensive in Paris but this seemed about right.
These prices may be based on different room types. Depending on the country, these prices may not include taxes, may include VAT only or may include all taxes (VAT and city tax). When prices do not include all taxes, the relevant taxes (VAT and/or city tax) will be stated in the following stages of the reservation process. The price is only guaranteed at the time of reservation.

With the Star Trek sequel gearing up to start production in January, director J.J. Abrams has selected She's Out of My League star Alice Eve for a part thought to be new to the 45-year-old franchise.
According to Variety, the 29-year-old English actress edged out such contenders as Teresa Palmer and Hayley Atwell for the undisclosed role. Once her deal is in place, Eve will join most of cast from the 2009 box-office hit, led by Chris Pine and Zachary Quinto as Kirk and Spock.
A deal is also in the works for Benicio del Toro, whom Abrams confirmed just last week is on his wishlist for Paramount Pictures' 3D sequel. The actor is destined to play the film's villain, a role insiders tell the trade paper is "someone familiar to Trekkies." Abrams apparently has just one more major part to cast, one that could be a villain playing a supporting role to del Toro's character.
Written by Alex Kurtzman, Roberto Orci and Damon Lindelof, the Star Trek sequel opens May 17, 2013.
Alice Eve is really gorgeous and very talented. I hope she is playing a human love interest for James Kirk.
• The Orion Syndicate as the villains
• Large all-star cast as well as many cameos
• More planets
• Larger space battles with more starships
• Kirk having better fighting skills
• The Star Trek theme music from the Insurrection end credits used at
the end
Benicio del Toro = Khan
Christine Chapel!! That's who she looks like, anyway. :D It would be awesome if she's a love interest for Kirk too, tho. Either one!
Dr. Carol Marcus
She should be Janice Rand. That would be awesome.

I want to change the values on a graph, but I don't have the initial data, means I have just the graph. Any idea?
If you have the image as a graphic file (.JPG, .PNG, .GIF, etc.) or a hardcopy that you could scan to produce a graphic file, there is a wide variety of graph digitising software packages that you could use to retrieve the original data points, which you could then re-plot any way you liked.
There is a Wikipedia article that provides references to a number of packages, another list of software alternatives for the same task and a CNET review of still another package that carries out this task.
Of the various packages that I've used over time to do this, the one I used most recently was WinDig though it is getting pretty old -- it is still a 16-bit Windows application -- so I wouldn't necessarily recommend that one.

Embarrassing photos from our younger days. We've all got 'em. Here's just some of mine that very rarely see the light of day (for fairly obvious reasons). If I'm going to post then, as I've been dared to do, then Saturday is just the day to do it.
I'm sure you'll spot me without too much difficulty -- that's if you're not laughing too hard. I could offer explanations or excuses, but ... ah well ... there you go.
I rest in the comforting notion that you all have stuff just as bad lurking in your drawers, your closets and your shoeboxes. Why not bring 'em out and air them? Go on, I double dare ya'. Let he who has the first stone spread the most sin ... or something.
BTW, in one of these photos appears the woman who first introduced me to Ayn Rand, something about which I personally am very grateful (thanks Pam).
I expect a few of you might have other thoughts on that particular fact you might wish to share ...

Charlotte Canelli is the library director of the Morrill Memorial Library in Norwood, Massachusetts. Read Charlotte's column in the June 13, 2014 edition of the Norwood Transcript and Bulletin.
It was a crisp and brilliant morning when I first became acquainted with Maya Angelou. Oh, I don't suggest I actually met Ms. Angelou. It was more like I was stirred to her powerful genius.
I'll give away my political inclinations (love me or hate me) when I declare that I was thrilled to attend the presidential inauguration of William Jefferson Clinton on January 20, 1993. A life-long democrat since my early days in a Democratic household, I was first registered to vote in the early days of 1970s. Congress had passed the 26th Amendment in 1971 providing the right to vote to any American aged 18 or over and so, the 1972 election was just around the corner. I was a starry-eyed and idealistic young politico. In neighborhoods in the San Francisco Bay Area, I knocked on doors for Democratic presidential candidate, George McGovern. Some of my best friends joined me and we felt that we could change the world.
Fast forward to the 1990s and I was, of course, a door knocker for yet another Democratic presidential hopeful, this time Bill Clinton. When Clinton was elected in the fall of 1992, I was fortunate enough to have some political connections (my ex-father-in-law was a colleague of Congressman Ed Markey). I scored Capitol Lawn tickets to the main event, the presidential inauguration of 1993. Three tickets – for myself and my two young daughters, age 10 and 11.
What a day it was! It was January frigid, yet still bright with promise for temperatures above freezing. At 9 am we were expected to line up to enter the South Lawn, West Front of the Capitol. A musical prelude strived to keep us engaged and the temperature climbed to a chilly but milder 40 degrees. I distinctly remember studying the back of heads, those who were taller than me. The lawn sloped up to the front of the Capitol and I alternately held my girls high in my arms so that they could see some of the activity not far from where we stood. Understandably, we spent much of our time entranced with watching the snipers high above on the Capitol dome; we stamped our feet in the chill, and snuggled up to the collective warmth of the thousands of people pressing against us.
Of course, the morning was a blur and the anticipation was over before we knew it. Bill Clinton formally took his oath at around noon and we craned our necks to see Hillary's blue hat and William Rehnquist's black robes.
One of those most memorable and unforgettable moments of that day was the hush of hundreds of thousands – perhaps a million – people as we sprawled across the Mall and up the Capitol lawns. Maya Angelou had stepped up to the microphone.
We listened raptly to "On the Pulse of Morning," the poem that Ms. Angelou wrote and recited just for the occasion of this 47th presidential inauguration. She was only the second person to read a poem at a presidential inauguration (Robert Frost was the first in 1961). She was also the first black person and the first woman.
Maya Angelou was well-known among many well-read people, yet I had never read or heard her before.
In 1993, Maya Angelou had been an actor and was an accomplished speaker, writer, and teacher. She had written five of her seven autobiographical books before composing "On the Pulse of Morning." She confesses that her inspiration for that famous poem came from everything that meant America to her – and to others. She included all of it in her poem.
Angelou's dramatic skill was evident that day. Critics have either loved or hated the actual poem. Regardless, it was a dramatic and moving moment in history that I will never forget. In measured and dramatic prose, she called for peace, justice and harmony for Americans across our nation.
"If you will study war no more. Come,
Clad in peace and I will sing the songs
The Creator gave to me when I and the
Tree and the rock were one."
Maya Angelou was a child of eight when she was abused and raped by her mother's boyfriend. She recounted that story and of her five years as a mute in her first autobiographical work "I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings" in 1961. She gave birth to her first child, a son, when she was only 17 years old.
Many people don't know that Angelou was a professional dancer and that she toured with a professional opera company. She learned several languages and danced Calypso at the Purple Onion in San Francisco. Maya had been born Marguerite Annie Johnson in 1928, but she changed her name to Maya Angelou in the 1950s to further her stage career. She worked as a composer for singer Roberta Flack and had a supporting role in the television mini-series "Roots."
While "Dr. Angelou" never earned a college degree, or a Ph.D., she was awarded over 50 honorary degrees. She taught at Wake-Forest University in Winston-Salem, North Carolina until her death.
When Maya Angelou's death was announced this past May 28, there was a common awareness of loss among many of us who had read her works or who had heard her speak. On Twitter, the grief was obvious; the White House mourned her as a storyteller; Oprah Winfrey mourned her as a blessing; Condoleeza Rice mourned her as a national treasure. J.K. Rowling spoke of her as simply amazing.
Most of us must mourn Maya Angelou as a patriot. She loved America fiercely – as a black woman, as a woman, and as a citizen. Maya Angelou believed in courage, she believed in change, and she believed in hope that we could all strive to be better human beings.
History, despite its wrenching pain,
Cannot be unlived, but if faced
With courage, need not be lived again.
Poetry from "On the Pulse of Morning," 1993.
